Almost everyone knows the story of Cinderella—a servant (仆人) girl who wears a glass slipper (玻璃鞋) and wins the heart of a prince. Disney has remade the classic fairy tale into a new movie.

We are first introduced to a beautiful girl named Ella.     46     Ella then welcomes her stepmother (继母) and her daughters. But when Ella’s father unexpectedly dies, she finds herself living with a terrible new family.     47     They even rename her Cinderella because she is often covered in cinders because she often sleeps by the fireplace.

Most people might become disappointed and angry in such a situation. But Ella doesn’t.     48     One day, Ella meets a charming stranger in the woods. She doesn’t know he is a prince. Soon an invitation to a palace ball (舞会) comes. Ella might see the young man again.     49     As in all good fairy tales, a beggar (乞丐) appears. She uses her magic to help Ella and changes her life forever.

Cinderella is certainly placed in a hard situation, but she chooses not to be the girl in distress (痛苦) and we see her make her strong and positive choices, “ Kenneth Branagh, director of the movie, told Glamour magazine. “    50    ”
