答案

Snow White
Once upon a time,as a queen sits sewing at her window,she pricks her finger on her needle and a drop of blood falls on the snow that had fallen on her ebony window frame.As she looks at the blood on the snow,she says to herself,"Oh,how I wish that I had a daughter that had skin white as snow,lips red as blood,and hair black as ebony".Soon after that,the queen gives birth to a baby girl who has skin white as snow,lips red as blood,and hair black as ebony.They name her Princess Snow White.As soon as the child is born,the queen dies.
Soon after,the king takes a new wife,who is beautiful but very vain.The queen possesses a magical mirror that answers any question,to whom she often asks:"Mirror,mirror on the wall,who in the land is fairest of all?" to which the mirror always replies "You,my queen,are fairest of all." But when Snow White reaches the age of seven,she becomes as beautiful as the day,and when the queen asks her mirror,it responds:"Queen,you are full fair,'tis true,but Snow White is fairer than you." Though in another version,the mirror simply replies:"Snow White is the fairest of them all."
The queen becomes jealous,and orders a huntsman to take Snow White into the woods to be killed.She demands that the huntsman return with Snow White's heart as proof of her killing.The huntsman takes Snow White into the forest,but after raising his knife to stab her,he finds himself unable to kill her.Instead,he lets her go,telling her to flee and hide,and brings the queen the heart of a young deer,which is then prepared by the cook and eaten by the queen.
In the forest,Snow White discovers a tiny cottage belonging to seven dwarfs,where she rests.There,the dwarfs take pity on her,saying "If you will keep house for us,and cook,make beds,wash,sew,and knit,and keep everything clean and orderly,then you can stay with us,and you shall have everything that you want." They warn her to take care and let no one in when they are away delving in the mountains.Meanwhile,the Queen asks her mirror once again "Who's the fairest of them all?",and is horrified to learn that Snow White is not only alive and well and living with the dwarfs,but is still the fairest of them all.
Three times the Queen disguises herself and visits the dwarfs' cottage while they are away during the day,trying to kill Snow White.First,disguised as a peddler,the Queen offers colorful stay-laces and laces Snow White up so tight that she faints,causing the Queen to leave her for dead.Snow White is revived by the dwarfs,however,when they loosen the laces.Next,the Queen dresses as a different old woman and brushes Snow White's hair with a poisoned comb.Snow White again collapses,but again is saved by the dwarfs.Finally,the Queen makes a poisoned apple,and in the disguise of a farmer's wife,offers it to Snow White.When she is hesitant to accept it,the Queen cuts the apple in half,eats the white part and gives the poisoned red part to Snow White.She eats the apple eagerly and immediately falls into a deep stupor.When the dwarfs find her,they cannot revive her,and they place her in a glass coffin,assuming that she is dead.
Time passes,and a prince traveling through the land sees Snow White.He strides to her coffin.The prince is enchanted by her beauty and instantly falls in love with her.He begs the dwarfs to let him have the coffin.The prince's servants carry the coffin away.While doing so,they stumble on some bushes and the movement causes the piece of poisoned apple to dislodge from Snow White's throat,awakening her.The prince then declares his love for her and soon a wedding is planned.
The vain Queen,still believing that Snow White is dead,once again asks her mirror who is the fairest in the land,and yet again the mirror disappoints her by responding that "You,my queen,are fair; it is true.But the young queen is a thousand times fairer than you."
Not knowing that this new queen was indeed her stepdaughter,she arrives at the wedding,and her heart fills with the deepest of dread when she realizes the truth.
As punishment for her wicked ways,a pair of heated iron shoes are brought forth with tongs and placed before the Queen.She is then forced to step into the iron shoes and dance until she falls down dead.
