C

Once upon a time, there lived a married couple who lived a happy but poor life in a farmhouse. In the kitchen at the back of the house, they had a small window, which looked onto their neighbor’s garden. In the garden, a witch(巫婆) grew a wonderful vegetable with beautiful purple flowers called a rampion or rapunzel: Nobody ever tried to go into the garden because it was owned by an evil(邪惡的) witch, who had great magical powers. Everyone was afraid of her, even though nobody had ever seen her. The stories that parents told their children about her were so frightening that the garden never had visitors.

The couple and their daughter were feeling very hungry one day: They hadn’t eaten anything for three days because they couldn’t afford to buy food. The husband decided to climb over the wall that evening and take some rapunzels. The wife cooked the plants and they were so tasty that the husband decided to get some more the next evening.

The moon and stars were shining brightly as he climbed over the witch’s wall and into her garden. He picked a huge handful of the plants. As he was walking back to the wall, he heard a terrible voice shout, “How dare(膽敢) you! Those are mine, you thief.”

“Oh, please, Madam!” cried the husband. “We haven’t eaten a meal in days. I just wanted some of your rapunzels to help my wife and daughter.”

The witch thought for a minute. “Very well.” she said. “I’ll allow you to take as many as you like. But you must give me your daughter. She shall live with me. I shall become her mother.”

The husband was shocked at the offer, but he was so crazy with hunger that he agreed. The witch went to his home and took the young baby away. “I’ll call her Rapunze,” she laughed as she put the tiny girl on her broomstick and flew up into the sky.
