Snow White's mother died when she was a little baby. She lived happily with her father, the king, in the castle. One day her father called her. Snow White, this is Princess Bella. She's a very special lady, and I'm going to marry her. That's wonderful! said Snow White. I'm sure we'll all be very happy in the castle together. Snow White's new mother was very beautiful, but she wasn't kind. She didn't read stories to Snow White, and she never played with her. Sometimes she left her in her room alone. Every evening, Queen Bella looked into her magic mirror and said, Mirror, mirror on the wall! Who's the most beautiful woman in the world? You are. The mirror always replied.

白雪公主很小的时候，妈妈就去世了。 她和当国王的父亲一起幸福地住在城堡里。 有一天，父亲把她叫到跟前。 “白雪公主，这是贝拉公主。” “她是位非常特别的女士，我要和她结婚了。” “太棒啦！”白雪公主说。 “我相信我们大家一起住在城堡里一定会非常开心的。” 白雪公主的新妈妈长得很漂亮，但心地一点也不善良。 她不给白雪公主读故事，也从来不陪她玩。 有时候她还会把白雪公主一个人留在房间里。 每天晚上，贝拉王后都会对着她的魔镜问道： “魔镜魔镜，挂在墙上！” “谁是这世界上最美丽的女人？” “是您。” 魔镜总是这样回答。

Five years later, Queen Bella looked into her magic mirror and said, Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the most beautiful woman in the world? You, dear Queen, are beautiful, it's true, but Snow White is more beautiful than you. replied the mirror. That's impossible! shouted Queen Bella. Snow White, come here immediately. Here I am, said Snow White. Queen Bella looked at Snow White and it was true. Snow White was more beautiful than Queen Bella. Ah, Snow White, said Queen Bella. Tomorrow you can go for a walk in the forest with the woodcutter. You can pick some flowers for your room. Thank you, said Snow White. I love walking in the forest. I can pick some flowers for you too.

五年后，贝拉王后又对着魔镜问道： “魔镜魔镜墙上挂，谁是世上最美的女人呀？” “亲爱的王后，您确实很美，可白雪公主比您更美哦。” 魔镜回答道。 “这不可能！”贝拉王后大喊起来。 “白雪公主，马上过来。” “我来了。”白雪公主说。 贝拉王后看了看白雪公主，魔镜说的是真的。 白雪公主确实比贝拉王后更漂亮。 “啊，白雪公主，”贝拉王后说， “明天你可以跟着樵夫去森林里散步。” “你可以摘些花放在你的房间里。” “谢谢您。”白雪公主说。 “我最喜欢去森林里散步啦。我还可以给您也摘些花哦。”

The next morning, Queen Bella called the woodcutter. You must go into the forest with Snow White, she said. And you must kill her. Kill Snow White? said the woodcutter. I can't do that. You must! said Queen Bella. That afternoon, Snow White and the woodcutter walked a long way into the forest. Snow White picked a beautiful bunch of wild flowers. I'm tired now, said Snow White. Can we go home now? I'm sorry, Snow White. You can't go back to the castle, said the woodcutter. Queen Bella told me to kill you. I don't want to kill you. Of course, I can't kill you. I can tell her you're dead. But you can never go back to the castle again. She hates you.

第二天早上，贝拉王后把樵夫叫了过来。 “你必须和白雪公主一起去森林里。”她说道。 “而且你要杀了她。” “杀了白雪公主？”樵夫吃惊地说。 “我做不到。” “你必须做到！”贝拉王后恶狠狠地说。 那天下午，白雪公主和樵夫走了很远的路，进入了森林深处。 白雪公主摘了一大束漂亮的野花。 “我现在累了。”白雪公主说。 “我们现在可以回家了吗？” “对不起，白雪公主。” “你不能回城堡了。”樵夫说。 “贝拉王后命令我杀了你。” “我不想杀你。” “当然，我也不会杀你。” “我可以告诉她你已经死了。” “但是你永远都不能再回城堡了。” “她恨你。”

The woodcutter went back to the castle alone. Did you kill Snow White? asked Queen Bella. Yes, said the woodcutter. Good, said Queen Bella. Now that she's dead, I'm the most beautiful woman in the world again. Snow White was alone and sad, but she made friends with some rabbits and a deer. Then she fell asleep. Early in the morning the birds woke her up and she saw a small cottage. Come with me, she said to the animals. Perhaps someone in the cottage knows where the castle is. I must go home and tell my father that Queen Bella wants to kill me. There was no one in the garden, but the cottage door was open. Snow White went inside.

樵夫一个人回到了城堡。 “你杀了白雪公主吗？”贝拉王后问道。 “是的。”樵夫回答。 “很好。”贝拉王后说。 “现在她死了，我又变回世界上最美丽的女人了。” 白雪公主孤身一人，伤心极了， 不过她和几只兔子还有一头小鹿成了朋友。 后来她就睡着了。 一大早，鸟儿们把她叫醒了，她看见一间小木屋。 “跟我来吧。”她对小动物们说。 “说不定小木屋里有人知道城堡在哪儿呢。” “我得回家告诉爸爸，贝拉王后想要杀我。” 花园里一个人也没有，不过小木屋的门是开着的。 白雪公主走了进去。

The cottage was very small, and everything inside was very small. A small table, seven small chairs, seven small beds. Perhaps seven children live here, Snow White thought. The cottage was a mess. The kitchen was a mess. There were dirty plates, glasses, cups, knives and forks in the sink and on the table. The bedroom was a mess. There were dirty clothes and shoes on the floor. Snow White cleaned the kitchen and washed the plates, cups, glasses, knives and forks. She made some soup for the children. Then she washed the clothes and made the beds. Finally, the cottage was clean, but Snow White was tired. She fell asleep on one of the beds.

小木屋很小，里面的所有东西也都很小。 一张小桌子，七张小椅子，七张小床。 “说不定这里住着七个小朋友呢。”白雪公主心想。 小屋里乱糟糟的，厨房也乱七八糟的。 水槽里和桌子上堆满了脏盘子、玻璃杯、杯子、刀叉。 卧室也乱糟糟的，地板上扔着脏衣服和鞋子。 白雪公主打扫了厨房，把盘子、杯子、玻璃杯、刀叉都洗干净了。 她给小朋友们煮了些汤，然后洗了衣服，铺好了床。 最后小木屋变得干干净净的，可白雪公主累坏了，她在其中一张床上睡着了。
