4.后羿射箭的故事英文版传说中后羿和嫦娥都是尧时候的人 ， 神话说 ， 尧的时候 ， 天上有十个太阳同时出现在天空 ， 把土地烤焦了 ， 庄稼都枯干了 ， 人们热得喘不过气来 ， 倒在地上昏迷不醒 。
因为天气酷热的缘故 ， 一些怪禽猛兽 ， 也都从干涸的江湖和火焰似的森林里跑出来 ， 在各地残害人民 。人间的灾难惊动了天上的神 ， 天帝常俊命令善于封射箭的后羿下到人间 ， 协助尧除人民的苦难 。
后羿带着天帝赐给他的一张红色的弓 ， 一口袋白色的箭 ， 还带着他的美丽的妻子嫦娥一起来到人间 。后羿立即开始了射日的战斗 。
他从肩上除下那红色的弓 ， 取出白色的箭 ， 一支一支地向骄横的太阳射去 ， 顷刻间十个太阳被射去了九个 ， 只因为尧认为留下一个太阳对人民有用处 ， 才拦阻了后羿的继续射击 。这就是有名的后羿射日的故事 。
但是后羿的丰功伟绩 ， 却受到了其他天神的妒忌 ， 他们到天帝那里去进谗言 ， 使天帝终于疏远了后羿 ， 最后把他永远贬斥到人间 。受了委曲的后羿和妻子嫦娥只好隐居在人间 ， 靠后羿打猎为生 。
嫦娥又是怎样奔月的呢？在古书上有种种不同的说法 。根据《淮南子》的记载是 ， 后羿觉得对不起受他连累而谪居下凡的妻子 ， 便到西王母那里去求来了长生不死之药 ， 好让他们夫妻二人在世间永远和谐地生活下去 。
嫦娥却过不惯清苦的生活 ， 乘后羿不在家的时候 ， 偷吃了全部的长生不死药 ， 奔逃到月亮里去了 。另一种说法是屈原（约前340椩记？78）《天问》的记载 ， 说后羿后来对嫦娥有不忠行为 ， 和河伯的妻子发生暖昧关系 ， 因而引起嫦娥极大的不满 ， 便离开后羿跑到天上去了 。
嫦娥奔月以后 ， 很快就后悔了 ， 她想起了丈夫平日对她的好处和人世间的温情 ， 对比月亮里的孤独 ， 倍觉凄凉 。关于后羿之死 ， 战国时思想家孟子（约公元前372椩记？89年）所著《孟子》和西汉初年刘安（前179椙？22）编成的《淮南子》都说他是被恩将仇报的徒弟逢蒙暗害的 。
暗害的手段记载各不一样 ， 有的说是用桃木大棒打死的 ， 有的说是用暗箭射死的 。总之这位盖世的英雄死在阴谋家的手里 。
有的传说里还说 ， 后羿死后英魂不散 ， 变成了打鬼的钟馗神 。这一说法是我国著名史学家顾颉刚（1893-1980年）根据《淮南子》等古书的记载考证出来的 。
这种说法 ， 实际上反映了我国古代人民对这位不幸死去的英雄的无限怀念In lore after Yi with the goddess of the moon is the person of Yao time , mythology says , Yao time, on day, 10 the suns at the same time appear in sky, it is burnt to roast land , crops are withered and dry, people heat get pant however air come , fall in faint on the ground do not wake up.
