Ответ на Spotlight on Russia Номер 6 из ГДЗ по Английскому языку 5 класс: Ваулина (Учебник Spotlight)

This is part of an e−mail to the Spotlight on Russia website. It’s from Jeanne Lefevre in Paris.
My hobby is collecting dolls. I’ve got a matryoshka with a painting on the “Snow Maiden” on each doll. Can you tell me more about the Snow Maiden?
Dear Jeanne,
“Snegurochka”, or the “Snow Maiden”, is a well−known Russian folk tale. Here’s our favourite version.
Snegurochka (The Snow Maiden)

An old man and his wife haven’t got any children. They’re very sad about this. “Let’s make a child out of snow,” says the man.

They make a pretty snow−girl. “Look!” says the woman. “Her lips are red and her eyes are open!” The snow−girl is alive!

The old couple are very happy. They call their new daughter Snegurochka. She is kind and polite. But she is pale and shy.

Now it is summer. Snegurochka is not well. “Go out to play,” her parents say. They are worried.

Snegurochka is in the forest with her friends. But it’s very hot, and Snegurochka isn’t happy.

“Let’s jump over a fire,” the girls say. Snegurochka jumps – and melts. She is gone forever.
