小学英语阅读:The Red Shoes
There once lived in a town a cute and pretty little girl whose name was ‘Karen’. She had to wear a torn dress, even walked around with bare feet in summer, and wore heavy and crude wooden shoes in winter because she was so poor. Her feet were always full of scars and wounds. The Red Shoes
“Karen, why do your feet hurt you so much? I will make shoes for you.” An old lady who ran a shoe store made red shoes for Karen. Those shoes were made of old pieces of cloth, and she sewed them by hand. “Thank you, aunt.”
Karen was so happy for her new shoes which suited her, that she jumped up and down. But, Karen‘s mother passed away on that day. A noblewoman saw Karen following after her mother’s funeral service. The lady got down from her carriage and talked to the minister. “I want to take her with me and look after her.”
“She is alone. If you take care of her, that will be a great blessing for the girl.” Karen thought, ‘These shoes brought me this luck.’ However, the noblewoman burned her dirty red shoes, put fresh new clothes on her, let her read books and taught her how to do needlework.
She now became a polite girl. But one day, the Queen and the Princess were passing through the town. Everyone in the town swarmed around the carriage. “How beautiful they are!” “It seems as if fairies came down from the sky.” All the people praised the Queen and the Princess.
But Karen could not take her eyes off of the from Princess‘ red, glittering and beautiful shoes. ’Is there anything more beautiful than the Princess‘ red shoes in this world?’ She even pricked herself with the needle while she was thinking about the red shoes. Soon, she grew old enough to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation. The noblewoman brought Karen to a shoe store to buy her new dresses and shoes for the ceremony. Seeing the shoes in a showcase, she almost shouted. “How come these shoes are in your showcase?” < The Sacrament of Confirmation: The first Christian ceremony when a child becomes an adult. >
