情境故事

Part One Act One

Into the World of Wonderland

Scene 2

Witch: Sure you can. But I thought your wife wanted you to watch your calorie consumption.

Part One Act Two

Run, Forest, Run

Scene 2



The Queen: Why is a young lad like you wandering in the forest with my daughter?

Tim: Your Majesty. I’ve never met her until today.

The Queen: All her ex-boyfriends told me the same thing when I caught them with her in the forest.

Tim: Look at me. Snow White is totally out of my league.

The Queen: I’d really like to believe you and be a merciful Queen. But as the mother of a princess, I must protect her pure and innocent image. Now that I have revealed Snow White’s dating history with a slip of my tongue, sorry, you must be silenced.

An hour later, the Three Little Pigs smell the scent of grilled corn in the backyard.

First Little Pig: What is that? It smells so good!

Second Little Pig: I am starving.

Tim: What corn? Where did it come from?

Cultural Note

The Princess Bride (1987), a classic American romantic comedy movie, is a fairy tale adventure about Princess Buttercup and her true love Westley. The beautiful Buttercup considers herself much better than the farm boy, Westley, who she treats in a scornful manner at every turn. Whenever Buttercup gives him an order, Westley always replies, “As you wish.” Later, she realizes that Westley’s “as you wish” actually means “I love you” and she’s in love with him, too. In order for them to marry, Westley decides he must leave town to seek fortune at sea. He promises her that he will come back to marry her someday. However, Westley’s ship is attacked by the Dread Pirate Roberts and Westley is presumed dead. About five years later, Princess Buttercup agrees to marry Prince Humperdinck, even though she doesn’t love him. However, she is kidnapped by bad guys before the wedding. After a dangerous journey, the princess is rescued by the man in black, who she presumes is the Dread Pirate Roberts. Confessing she doesn’t love Prince Humperdinck and revealing to the Dread Pirate Roberts that he killed her one true love, she tells him that he wishes he’d die too and shoves him down a hill. While tumbling down the hill and yelling, “As you wish,” soon she discovers he is actually Westley!

文化角落

美國經典浪漫愛情喜劇《公主新娘》(The Princess Bride) (1987) 是一部關於牛奶杯公主(Princess Buttercup)和他的真愛衛斯理(Westley)童話冒險故事。美麗的牛奶杯公主認為自己比農場男孩衛斯理高貴許多，因此總是以瞧不起的姿態對待他。每次牛奶杯公主對他下命令時，他總是回答「如你所願」。後來她終於明白衛斯理的「如你所願」實際上是在說「我愛你」，她也一樣愛著他。兩人互許終生，但衛斯理決定他必須離開小鎮出海去尋找財富，他答應她，會回來娶她為妻。然而，衛斯理的船受到可怕的羅伯茲海盜(the Dread Pirate Roberts)攻擊，衛斯理被認為應該死了。五年之後，牛奶杯公主同意嫁給漢伯丁克王子 (Prince Humperdinck)，即便她並不愛他。然而，她在婚禮前被壞人綁架了。歷經一段危險旅程之後，她被一個黑衣男子拯救，她覺得這男子應該就是可怕的羅伯茲海盜本人。她跟海盜坦承自己並不愛漢伯丁克王子，同時跟他說，希望他去死因為他殺了自己心愛的男人。說完便將他推下山坡。當他滾下山的同時大喊著「如你所願」時，她立刻意識他，原來這男子是衛斯理！

你是否曾經有股衝動，想為童話故事裡的主角創造不同的情節與結局呢？當白雪公主正要咬下第一口蘋果時，如果你正好在場，會怎麼幫她化解危機呢？ㄧ向熱愛童話故事的我，很高興能藉由撰寫本書，讓童話故事裡的角色，一個個躍於紙上，並以不同的面貌，演出一齣齣精采好戲。

撰寫本書的另一個初衷，則是經驗的傳承。在學習英文的過程中，自發性地大量閱讀英文書籍，意外地大大提升我的英文能力。於是很幸運地，在面對臺灣不同階段的大考時，英文這一科目總能不費力地準備 (也僅此一科而已，笑)。赴美之前在臺教授英文的那幾年，也常以自身學習經驗，鼓勵學生從找一本「適合自己的程度且喜愛的英文(故事)書」開始練功！

因此，由衷希望，本書能成為你的第一本英文page-turner。讓搞笑的人物，詼諧又帶點緊張的故事情節，使你愛不釋手，一頁接著ㄧ頁地讀下去，同時還能輕鬆愉快地學習英文，吸收不同的文化資訊。

最後，在此感謝我先生Travis Etzel不藏私地，以英語母語人士的角度，給本書許多正面批評與建議，並在無數焚膏繼晷趕稿的夜晚，陪伴在我身邊，一同校稿。同時，也感謝辛苦的編輯韋佑和協助本書完成的編輯們。
