    Rumpelstiltskin: comprehension – extract from the story

    English worksheets from urbrainy.com

    Once upon a time there was a


    poor Miller who had a beautiful
    daughter. One day the Miller was
    invited to visit the King and tried
    to make himself sound more
    important than he was by
    boasting that his daughter could spin straw into gold. The King
    was very fond of gold and thought he would like to see if this claim
    was true. He asked the Miller to bring his daughter to the castle to
    see if she really could spin straw into gold.

    When the Miller’s daughter arrived at the castle the King led her
    into a room that was full of straw. He gave her a spinning wheel
    and some empty reels on which to wind the gold thread.
    He said to her, “Now, get to
    work and if you have not spun
    all of this straw into gold by
    tomorrow morning then you
    must die,” he shut the door
    and left her to get on with it.
