CONTOH
Once upon a time, there lived a girl named Cinderella. She lived with her
stepmother and two stepsisters. The stepmother and stepdaughters didn't like
Cinderella and treated her badly. Cinderella did the hardest works in the house
such as cleaning the house and preparing the food for the family.
One day, a ball was being held by the royal family of the kingdom to find a
spouse for the Prince. Cinderella wanted to go but her stepmother forbade her.
Cinderella cried. But then a fairy godmother appeared beside her.
"Why are you crying, Cinderella?" the fairy godmother asked.
"Because I want to go to the ball but my stepmother insists me that I stay at
home," said Cinderella. "Besides, I don't have any beautiful dresses."
The fairy then turned Cinderella's ugly clothes became the most beautiful dress
complete with glass slippers. The fairy had also turned a pumpkin into a coach
and the mice into six white horses. Cinderella finally could go to the ball but had
to come back before midnight before the spell broke.
