【卖火柴的小女孩英文故事简缩】In a cold and dark winter night, a poor little girl walks through the streets of a city, trying to sell matches. Her feet are bare, and her clothes are torn. She is freezing, but she has no money to buy food or warm clothes.
As the wind blows strongly, she tries to find a place to stay. She finds a corner near a big house where people are celebrating a feast. She is too afraid to go in, so she stays outside, trembling with cold.
To keep warm, she lights a match. The flame gives her light and warmth. In the glow, she sees a warm stove, which makes her feel safe. But as the match burns out, the vision disappears. She lights another one, and this time she sees a beautiful table filled with delicious food. Again, the fire dies, and the dream vanishes.
She continues lighting matches, each one bringing a different memory or hope. She sees her grandmother, who had passed away, smiling at her. The girl wishes to be with her forever. She lights all the remaining matches, and in the bright light, she sees her grandmother again. Together, they fly into the sky, away from the cold and suffering.
In the morning, people find the girl lying on the street, frozen and lifeless. No one knows how much she suffered, but her final moments were filled with love and dreams.
This story reminds us of the importance of kindness, compassion, and the power of hope, even in the darkest times.
