白雪公主
Once upon a time in the middle of winter， when the flakesflake n.薄片 of snow were falling like feathers from the sky， a queen sat at a window sewing， and the frame of the window was made of black ebonyebony n.黑檀树， 乌木， 乌梅。 And whilst she was sewing and looking out of the window at the snow， she prickedprick vt.刺， 戳， 刺痛， 竖起 her finger with the needle， and three drops of blood fell upon the snow. And the red looked pretty upon the white snow， and she thought to herself， “Would that I had a child as white as snow， as red as blood， and as black as the wood of the windowframe.” Soon after that she had a little daughter， who was as white as snow， and as red as blood， and her hair was as black as ebony， and she was therefore called little snowwhite. And when the child was born， the queen died. 寒冷的冬天，天空飘着鹅毛般大雪，一位王后坐在乌檀木框子的窗户前，做着针线活儿。她一边缝着，一边望着空中飞舞的雪花，不小心扎破了手指头，血流出来，滴了三滴在雪花上。血红红的，衬着白雪，格外美丽。王后于是想：“要是我有个孩子，她白得像雪，红得像血，黑得像乌檀木的孩子，就好啦！”过了不久，她生下一个女儿，果真皮肤雪白，嘴唇血红，头发像乌檀木一样黑油油的，因此就给她取名叫“白雪”。可是，白雪公主生下不久，王后就去世了。
After a year had passed the king took to himself another wife. She was a beautiful woman， but proud and haughtyhaughty adj.傲慢的， and she could not bear that anyone else could surpasssurpass vt.超越， 胜过 her in beauty. She had a wonderful lookingglass， and when she stood in front of it and looked at herself in it， and said，一年后，国王娶了一位新王后。她是个漂亮女人，只不过骄傲自负，容不得任何人比她更美丽。她有一面魔镜，每当她走到镜前照一照，总要问：“Lookingglass， lookingglass， on the wall， who in this land is the fairest of all？”
“魔镜，魔镜，哪个女人最漂亮？”
The lookingglass answered， “Thou， queen， art the fairest of all.”
镜子便回答：“王后娘娘，全国您最漂亮。”
Then she was satisfied， for she knew that the lookingglass spoke the truth. 王后心满意足，因为她知道，镜子讲的是真话。
But snowwhite was growing up， and grew more and more beautiful， and when she was seven years old she was as beautiful as the day， and more beautiful than the queen herself. And once when the queen asked her lookingglass，可是，白雪公主慢慢长大了，而且越长越美，到七岁那年已美丽得如同晴朗的白昼，甚至超过了王后。一天，王后又问镜子：“Lookingglass， lookingglass， on the wall， who in this land is the fairest of all？”
“魔镜，魔镜，哪个女人最漂亮？”
It answered， “Thou art fairer than all who are here， lady queen. But more beautiful still is snowwhite， as I ween.” 镜子便回答：“王后娘娘，这里数您最漂亮，但公主比你更漂亮。”
Then the queen was shocked， and turned yellow and green with envyenvy n.羡慕， 嫉妒。 From that hour， whenever she looked at snowwhite， her heart heaved heave v.举起 in her breast， she hated the girl so much. And envy and pride grew higher and higher in her heart like a weedweed n.野草， 杂草， so that she had no peace day or night. She called a huntsmanhuntsman n.猎人， 管猎犬者， and said， “Take the child away into the forest. I will no longer have her in my sight. Kill her， and bring me back her lung and liver as a tokentoken n.表示， 向征， 记号， 代币。” The huntsman obeyed， and took her away but when he had drawn his knife， and was about to piercepierce vt.刺穿， 刺破， 穿透， 突破， 深深感动 snowwhites innocent heart， she began to weep， and said， “Ah dear huntsman， leave me my life. I will run away into the wild forest， and never come home again.” And as she was so beautiful the huntsman had pity on her and said， “Run away， then， you poor child.” “The wild beasts will soon have devoureddevour vt.（尤指动物）吞吃， 狼吞虎咽， 挥霍， （火灾等）毁灭， 破坏， 吞没， 贪看， 贪听 you.” thought he， and yet it seemed as if a stone had been rolled from his heart since it was no longer needful for him to kill her. And as a young boar just then came running by he stabbedstab v.刺，中伤，刺穿 it， and cut out its lung and liver and took them to the queen as proof that the child was dead. The cook had to salt them， and the wickedwicked adj.坏的， 邪恶的， 缺德的， 不道德的， 恶劣的，刻毒的， 淘气的 queen ate them， and thought she had eaten the lung and liver of snowwhite. 王后大吃一惊，忌妒得脸都放青了。从此，一见白雪公主，她心里难受，因此恨死了小姑娘。忌妒和骄傲像野草一样，在她心中越长越高，使她白天黑夜不得安宁。于是，她叫来一个猎人，对他说：“把这孩子带进森林里去，我讨厌见到她。你得把她杀死，把她的肺和肝带回来当证据。”猎人奉命把白雪公主带进了森林，拔出猎刀来准备刺穿她纯洁无邪的心脏，白雪公主一下子哭起来，说：“亲爱的猎人啊，饶了我的命吧，我愿跑进森林深处去，永远不再回来！”她生得那样得美，猎人对她产生了同情，说：“可怜的孩子，你就快走吧！”他心想，野兽很快会吃掉她，因此他无需再杀死她，心情如释重负。这时候，正好有只小野猪蹦蹦跳跳地跑过来，他一刀把它捅死，掏出它的肺和肝，带回去给王后当证据。厨子奉命把它们烧好了，随后狠毒的王后将它们吃得一干二净。她还以为，她吃的真是白雪公主的肺和肝呢。
But now the poor child was all alone in the great forest， and so terrified that she looked at all the leaves on the trees， and did not know what to do. Then she began to run， and ran over sharp stones and through thornsthorn n.[植］刺， 棘， 荆棘， and the wild beasts ran past her， but did her no harm. She ran as long as her feet would go until it was almost evening， then she saw a little cottage and went into it to rest herself. Everything in the cottage was small， but neater and cleaner than can be told. There was a table on which was a white cover， and seven little plates， and on each plate a little spoon， moreover， there were seven little knives and forks， and seven little mugsmug n.杯子。 Against the wall stood seven little beds side by side， and covered with snowwhite counterpanescounterpane n.床单， 床罩。 Little snowwhite was so hungry and thirsty that she ate some vegetables and bread from each plate and drank a drop of wine out of each mug， for she did not wish to take all from one only. Then， as she was so tired， she laid herself down on one of the little beds， but none of them suited her， one was too long， another too short， but at last she found that the seventh one was right， and so she remained in it， said a prayer and went to sleep. 可怜的小姑娘一个人孤零零地留在大森林中，心里害怕极了。她看着树叶，不知怎么办才好。突然她开始跑起来，跑过锋利的石块，穿过带刺的灌木丛，野兽在她身边跳来跳去，但没有伤害她。她不停地跑。她跑到天快黑的时候，发现一幢小屋，就进去休息。小屋内所有的东西都很小，但很精致，而且很整洁。一张铺着白台布的小桌儿，桌上摆着七只小盘子，每只盘里放着一把小勺儿，旁边还有共七副小刀叉和七个小杯子。靠墙并排摆着七张小床，床上铺的被单雪白雪白的。小公主又饿又渴，忍住从每只盘子里吃掉一点儿蔬菜和面包，从每个杯子里喝一滴儿葡萄酒，要知道，她可不想把一只盘子和一个杯子的东西全吃喝得精光。她太疲倦了，吃喝完以后立刻躺在一张小床上。可是床都不合适，这张太窄，那张太短，最后她来到第七床上正好适合，她便睡下进了梦乡。
When it was quite dark the owners of the cottage came back. They were seven dwarfs who dug and delveddelve v.钻研 in the mountains for oreore n.矿石， 含有金属的岩石。 They lit their seven candles， and as it was now light within the cottage they saw that someone had been there， for everything was not in the same order in which they had left it. 天全黑下来以后，小屋的主人回来了，他们是七个小矮人儿。为了找到矿石，他们每天去山里掘呀，挖呀。他们点上七盏小灯，小屋里一下子变得明亮起来，这时他们发现家里来了生人，因为所有东西已不像他们离开时摆放得那样。
The first said， “Who has been sitting on my chair？” “谁坐过我的小椅子？”第一个小矮人说。
The second， “Who has been eating off my plate？” “谁吃过我小盘儿里的东西？”第二个说。
The third， “Who has been taking some of my bread？” “谁吃了我的面包？”第三个说。
The fourth， “Who has been eating my vegetables？” “谁吃了我的蔬菜？”第四个说。
