the little match girl英文童话改编
Long long ago, in a charming small town, there lived a very happy family. The man and the woman loved each other very much and several years later, they had a very beautiful daughter. The little girl was growing up carefreely until one day her mother died of a weird disease. Day after day went by and still the man was in a heartbroken mood, losing all his motivation to the following life. He was addicted to excessive drinking and smoking the whole day. With time passing by, the family was finally down and out, which may can not be called a family again. The little pathetic girl had to try to make a living by selling matches in the street, even in the cold winter evenings.
It`s a cold night. Folks were enjoying a merry Christmas with their family. But the little girl, curling up in a corner of the street, trembling. She reminded the happy times with her mom. Slowly, she struck the first match. She seemed to have seen the scene when she was playing hide-and-seek game with her mother. Then, the second match, her mom was preparing an abundant supper for her. At the very moment she was absorbed in remembering the happy times, a lady came towards her, leaving hurrily after throwing a piece of bread. While she was to enjoy the bread, a boy in rags ran up, staring at the bread in her hands.
With a minute of hesitation, the girl generously gave the bread to the shabby boy. The boy ate the bread like wolves and tigers, licked the bread crumbs in his hands, cleaned his mouth, and said: I will repay your generosity. After these words, the boy ran away in a hurry.
Whether the burning summer days or the piercing winter nights, the little girl went through one hardship after another. Excessive drinking and smoking caused her father to death and fortunately, she was adopted by an old kind lady, who used to have a daughter of the same age as the little girl. The warm-hearted lady treated the little girl as her own. Although still living in poverty, the little girl’s hea rt was warmed by the tardy love.
Originally, the little boy was a prince, his father was killed by a traitor, and he was driven out of the palace, living a begging life. After a long time, the prince finally defeated the king, re-ascended the throne. Luckily, the prince has never forgotten the little girl because of her kindness that supported him lifelong. One day, he came to the city where he received assistance from the little girl, when suddenly a little girl in
shabby dress came to his sight. Though with old and fading clothes, she looked beautiful and charming. The prince immediately recognized that this was the right girl to give him bread to eat.
He thought this girl as his angel and invited her to his ball. He waltzed her round the room and knelt down in the center of it. All the guests were surprised and they saw their King struck a match. “Years ago, I saw you striking a match and the fire go ing out. Your match fired nothing but lit my heart. Your bread was not delicious but saved me from hunger. So, I think, you, the kind match girl, is a good match. W o uld you like to marry me?”
Absolutely, the answer is “Yes, I do”.

格林童话小精灵和鞋匠中英双语
[格林童话（5篇）/ 格林兄弟著] 小精灵和鞋匠 ■The Elves and the Shoemaker There was once a shoemaker, who, through no fault of his own, became so poor that at last he had nothing left but just enough leather to make one pair of shoes. He cut out the shoes at night, so as to set to work upon them next morning; and as he had a good conscience, he laid himself quietly down in his bed, committed himself to heaven, and fell asleep. In the morning, after he had said his prayers, and was going to get to work, he found the pair of shoes made and finished, and standing on his table. He was very much astonished, and could not tell what to think, and he took the shoes in his hand to examine them more nearly; and they were so well made that every stitch was in its right place, just as if they had come from the hand of a master-workman. Soon after, a purchaser entered, and as the shoes fitted him very well, he gave more than the usual price for them, so that the shoemaker had enough money to buy leather for two more pairs of shoes. He cut them at night, and intended to set to work the next morning with fresh spirit; when he got up they were already finished, and a customer even was not lacking, who gave him so much money that he was able to buy leather enough for four new pairs. Early next morning he found the four pairs also finished, and so it always happened; whatever he cut out in the evening was worked up by the morning, so that he was soon in the way of making a gook living, and in the end became very well to do. One night, not long before Christmas, when the shoemaker had finished cutting out, and before he went to bed, he said to his wife, “How would it be if we were to sit up tonight and see who it is that does us this service ” His wife agreed, and set a light to burn. Then they both hid in a corner of the room, behind some coats that were hanging up, and then they began to watch. As soon as it was midnight they saw come in two neatly-formed naked little men, who seated themselves before the shoemaker's table, and took up the work that was already prepared, and began to stitch, to pierce, and to hammer so cleverly and quickly with their little fingers that the shoemaker's eyes could scarcely follow them, so full of wonder was he. And they never left off until everything was finished and was standing ready on the table, and then they jumped up and ran off. The next morning the shoemaker's wife said to her husband, “Those little men have made us rich, and we ought to show ourselves grateful. With all their running about, and having nothing to cover them, they must be cold. I'll tell you what: I will make little shirts, coats, waistcoats, and breeches for them, and knit each of them a pair of stockings, and you shall make each of them a pair of shoes. ” The husband consented willingly, and at night, when everything was finished, they laid the gifts together on the table, instead of the cut-out work, and placed themselves so that they could observe how the little men would behave. When midnight came, they rushed in, ready to set work, but when they found, instead of the pieces of prepared leather, the neat little garments put ready forthem, they stood a moment in surprise, and then they testified the greatest delight. With the greatest swiftness they took up the pretty garments and slipped them on, singing, “What spruce and dandy boys are we! No longer cobblers we will be. ”

经典童话故事--豌豆公主(双语版)
经典童话故事豌豆公主（双语版） There was once a Prince who wished to marry a Princess；but then she must be a real Princess. He travelled all over the world in hopes of finding such a lady；but there was always something wrong. Princesses he found in plenty; but whether they were real Princesses it was impossible for him to decide, for now one thing, now another, seemed to him not quite right about the ladies. At last he returned to his palace quite cast down，because he wished so much to have a real Princess for his wife. 从前有一位王子，他想找一位公主结婚，但她必须是一位真正的公主。他走遍了全世界，想要寻到这样的一位公主。可是无论他到什么地方，他总是碰到一些障碍。公主倒有的是，不过他没有办法断定她们究竟是不是真正的公主。她们总是有些地方不大对头。结果，他只好回家来，心中很不快活，因为他是那么渴望着得到一位真正的公主。 One evening a fearful tempest arose, it thundered and lightened, and the rain poured down from the sky in torrents: besides, it was as dark as pitch. All at once there was heard a violent knocking at the door, and the old King，he Prince's father, went out himself to open it. 有一天晚上，忽然起了一阵可怕的暴风雨。天空在掣电，在打雷，在下着大雨。这真有点使人害怕！” 这时，有人在敲门，老国王就走过去开门。 It was a Princess who was standing outside the door. What with the rain and the wind，she was in a sad condition: the water trickled down from her hair, and her clothes clung to her body. She said she was a real Princess. 站在城外的是一位公主。可是，天哪！经过了风吹雨打之后，她的样子是多么难看啊！水沿着她的头发和衣服向下面流，流进鞋尖，又从脚跟流出来。她说她是一个真正的公主。 "Ah! we shall soon see that!" thought the old Queen-mother; however, she said not a word of what she was going to do; but went quietly into the bedroom, took all the bed-clothes off the bed, and put three little peas on the bedstead. She then laid twenty mattresses one upon another over the three peas, and put twenty feather beds over the mattresses. Upon this bed the Princess was to pass the night. “是的，这点我们马上就可以考查出来。”老皇后心里想，可是她什么也没说。她走进卧房，把所有的被褥都搬开，在床榻上放了一粒豌豆。于是她取出二十床垫子，把它们压在豌豆上。随后，她又在这些垫子上放了二十床鸭绒被。这位公主夜里就睡在这些东西上面。 The next morning she was asked how she had slept. "Oh, very badly indeed!" she replied. "I have scarcely closed my eyes the whole night through. I do not know what was in my bed, but I had something hard under me, and am all over black and blue. It has hurt me so much!" 早晨大家问她昨晚睡得怎样。“啊，不舒服极了！”公主说，“我差不多整夜没合上眼！天晓得我床上有件什么东西？我睡到一块很硬的东西上面，弄得我全身发青发紫，这真怕人！”Now it was plain that the lady must be a real Princess, since she had been able to feel the three little peas through the twenty mattresses and twenty feather beds. None but a real Princess could have had such a delicate sense of feeling. 现在大家就看出来了。她是一位真正的公主，因为压在这二十床垫子和二十床鸭绒被下面的一粒豌豆，她居然还能感觉得出来。除了真正的公主以外，任何人都不会有这么嫩的皮肤的。The Prince accordingly made her his wife；being now convinced that he had found a real Princess. The three peas were however put into the cabinet of curiosities, where they are still to be seen, provided they are not lost. 因此那位王子就选她为妻子了，因为现在他知道他得到了一位真正的公主。这粒豌豆因此也就被送进了博物馆，如果没有人把它拿走的话，人们现在还可以在那儿看到它呢。

Finally the woman came to believe that the good Lord would fulfill her wish. Through the small rear window of these people's house they could see into a splendid garden that was filled with the most beautiful flowers and herbs. The garden was surrounded by a high wall, and no one dared enter, because it belonged to a sorceress who possessed great power and was feared by everyone. One day the woman was standing at this window, and she saw a bed planted with the most beautiful rapunzel. It looked so fresh and green that she longed for some. It was her greatest desire to eat some of the rapunzel. This desire increased with every day, and not knowing how to get any, she became miserably ill. Her husband was frightened, and asked her, "What ails you, dear wife?" "Oh," she answered, " if I do not get some rapunzel from the garden behind our house, I shall die." The man, who loved her dearly, thought, "Before you let your wife die, you must get her some of the rapunzel, whatever the cost." So just as it was getting dark he climbed over the high wall into the sorceress's garden, hastily dug up a handful of rapunzel, and took it to his wife. She immediately made a salad from it, which she devoured eagerly. It tasted so very good to her that by the next day her desire for more had grown threefold. If she were to have any
