① Many of you know the story Cinderella, but you may not know that there are over a hundred different ways to tell the story Cinderella. When people tell the same story in a different way, it is called the “version” of the story. The story Cinderella has many different versions. Let’s read two of them and find out how they are different.
②Charles Perrault from France wrote the version that most people know in 1697. This is the version where a fairy (仙子) helps make Cinderella’s dress and the mice help Cinderella go to the dance in a pumpkin (南瓜) carriage. In this version, many of the animals are Cinderella’s friends. They help her meet Prince (王子). At last, Cinderella and Prince have a happy life together.
③In the other version of this story in 1812 by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm from Germany, the birds help Cinderella in the story. Cinderella’s father gives her a branch when he comes back from a market. She plants the branch and uses her tears (眼泪) to water it until it grows into a tall tree.
④ The birds now live in the tree and they give Cinderella a dress of gold and shoes of gold. Cinderella goes to the party to meet and dance with Prince. Later, he finds Cinderella at home. At last, Cinderella and Prince have a happy life together.
⑤ Now you can understand what the word “version” means and how people can tell a story in a different way. That is why there are many versions of the same story.
