　　小学英语阅读：Hansel and Gretel

　　Once upon a time， there lived in a village a lovely brother and sister called Hansel and Gretel. But their stepmother did not like them at all. The morning of one day， their stepmother said to the children， “Let‘s go to the forest to pick some fruit.”

　　The older brother Hansel marked his way by dropping white pebbles， without letting his stepmother know. When they reached a deep forest， their stepmother had the children work. And she stealthily crept away from them and out of the forest.

　　Total darkness surrounded the children after they had worked for some time， and the day grew to a close. Then Hansel saw the shining pebbles in white along the trail of the dark mountain. The children came home by looking at the pebbles Hansel had cast.

　　After a few days， their stepmother suggested to the children that they again go pick fruit. Hansel marked his way by dropping the pieces of bread that remained from breakfast in the morning. When they arrived at the deep forest， their stepmother ran away in secret again.

　　When night fell， Hansel tried to find the pieces of bread he had dropped down on the road. But the pieces of bread had been eaten up by the birds and were not to be found. The children suddenly began to be afraid.

　　Hansel and Gretel wandered around the forest for some time. “Brother， there is a house.” Gretel shouted. They came near the house， and found that it was made entirely of cookies and candies. The children were so hungry and fell upon the walls of the house with great appetite.

　　At that time， a dreadful hag appeared. Upon seeing the children， she thought that， ’I am going to eat them up after they become fat.‘ The hag pretended to be friendly to the brother and sister， saying， “Little children， live with me. Then I will give you many things to eat.”
