" Wow!" said Hansel and Gretel. And they began to eat the house

But the witch had very old eyes that made everything seem blurry, and she could not see if Hansel was fat

旁白 neutral

So every day she would say to Hansel," Put out your finger," and she would feel it to see if he was fat enough

旁白 neutral

I will eat you tonight!" When Gretel heard this, she cried even harder

我今晚就要吃掉你！"格蕾特听到这话，哭得更厉害了。

" Stop crying, silly girl!" the witch said

"别哭了，傻丫头！"巫婆说。

旁白 neutral

" Crawl inside that oven and make a fire to cook dinner."

Gretel was smart too. She knew the witch was trying to trick her, so she said," I don't know how to climb into an oven."

格蕾特也很聪明。她知道巫婆想骗她，所以她说，"我不知道怎么爬进烤箱。"

旁白 neutral
