27、iginal Cinderella varies very much from the Disney version we know today. It started off with the girl mourning her mothers death and going to her tomb three times a day. In addition, there were only birds that helped Cinderella; there was no such thing as a fairy godmother or helpful mice, nor was
28、there mention of a horse and carriage. The stepsisters were cruel: they always threw Cinderellas food into the ashes of the fire and made her sleep on the ashes on the floor, hence因此her name.

32、n order to fit into the shoe, with the same result. Only Cinderellas foot fit perfectly and so the prince chose to marry her. The story ends with the wedding day: as Cinderellas two stepsisters followed her, pretending to be devoted to her so that they could enjoy the kings riches, two birds flew by
33、 and plucked(啄) out their eyes. Because of their wickedness and falsehood, they had to spend the rest of their days blind. The original Cinderella is so different from the Disney version.
