　　小学英语阅读：The Cripple Hans

　　There once was a rich feudal lord. He and his wife had a big farm. They wished everyone else would live as happily as they did. On one Christmas Eve， a beautifully decorated Christmas tree stood in their big hall， and firewood was burning vigorously. The couple invited all the poor children and their parents of the country to their house.

　　Traditional Christmas meals were served to everyone， and people went back to their homes and talked about the dinner and the

　　gifts. Kersten and Ole， who were working in a garden， received the gifts for their children and went back home. “Both masters are very kind， but that‘s because they are rich. They are enjoying themselves.”

　　“We have only four suits of clothes. Why didn’t they give anything to Hans？ Maybe it‘s because Hans is a cripple， so they forgot him.” Hans was a very active and smart boy， but he had to stay in bed for five years because of his weak legs. “Oh， but I received a book for Hans” Hans was so happy because of the book. The thick fairy tale book had a lot to read and to think about deeply.

　　Kersten and Ole were always complaining because they were always busy. “Some people have both happiness and wealth at the same time， but for other people， the only thing they have is poverty. Why do we have to suffer so much because of Adam and Eve？ If we were Adam and Eve， we would not behave like them.” “You would do same as they did. This book can tell you why.”

　　“What did the book say？” Hans read a story to his parents loudly. ’One woodcutter couple always complained that their unhappiness began because of Adam and Eve. At that time， a King was riding a horse and heard them and said， “Come to my palace with me. You can live as luxuriously as I can. You have seven kinds of wonderful dishes and deserts at every meal.”
