Cinderella was a nice girl. Her mother died when she was very young. Cinderella lived with her stepmother and her two stepsisters. Everyday she had to do a lot of housework.
One day, the King was going to have a birthday party for his son, the Prince. All the girlsmight go to the party.
When her stepmother and sisters had all gone, Cinderella could have a rest then. In fact, Cinderella wanted to go to the ball, too. But she had no good clothes to wear. She was sad.
When she was worried about this, a fairy appeared and said,“I’m Fairy Godmother. Don’t worry, Cinderella. I can help you. I can give you good clothes.” She took out some cloth and turned them into a hat, a handbag, a pair of beautiful shoes and fine clothes. Cinderella was very happy.
But the party was going to start, it was too late. The fairy turned a pumpkin into a nice horse cart and some mice into drivers.The cart looked very beautiful. Before Cinderella left, the fairy said to her,“You must come back before twelve o’clock. If not, the magic only lasts till midnight.”
Cinderella had a wonderful time. She was the most beautiful girl at the ball. The handsome Prince only danced with her.“Who is she?” No one knew her, not even her stepmother and stepsisters recognized her.
The clock started to strike twelve. Cinderella thought of the fairy’s words. She ran out of the palace hurriedly, one of her pretty glass slippers fell off. The Prince picked up the slipper, said to himself,“I’ll marry the girl whose foot fits this.”
The next day, the Prince took the slipper to every house to find the mysterious girl. Both of the sisters wanted to put on the slipper,but their feet were far too big. Then the Prince asked Cinderella to try it, of course, it fitted.
The Prince and Cinderella were soon married and lived happily ever after.
灰姑娘是个好姑娘。她很小的时候,妈妈就死了。灰姑娘跟着继母和继母的两个女儿一起生活,每天都要做许多家务。
一天,国王要为他儿子――王子举办一场生日晚会。所有的姑娘都可以参加。
当她的继母和两个姐姐都走了以后,灰姑娘才得以休息一会儿。事实上,灰姑娘也想去参加王子的晚会,但是她没有什么好衣服可穿,她很难过。
正当她烦恼的时候,一位仙女出现在她面前说:“我是仙女教母。不用担心,灰姑娘,我会帮助你,我能给你漂亮的衣服。”她取出一些布,把它们变成了一顶帽子、一个手提包、一双美丽的鞋和漂亮的衣服。灰姑娘非常高兴。
可是已经太迟了,晚会就要开始了。仙女把南瓜变成了一辆好看的马车,把一些老鼠变成了马夫。现在这辆马车看起来特别漂亮。在灰姑娘离开之前,仙女告诉她:“你一定要在12点之前赶回,否则魔法到午夜就不灵了。”
灰姑娘开心极了,她是舞会上最美丽的姑娘,英俊的王子只同她一个人跳舞。“她是谁呢?”没有人认识她,就连她的继母和两个姐姐也没认出她。
12点的钟声敲响了,灰姑娘想起了仙女的话,她慌忙跑出王宫。她的漂亮水晶鞋掉了一只。王子捡起水晶鞋,对自己说:“我要娶能穿上这只水晶鞋的女孩。”
第二天,王子带着这只水晶鞋挨家挨户地寻找那个神秘的姑娘。两个姐姐都想穿上这只鞋,可她们的脚太大了。然后,王子让灰姑娘试穿,当然,正好合适。
王子和灰姑娘很快就结婚了,从此他们一直过着幸福的生活。
