New Year's Eve in snow; the little match-seller barefoot in the street.

她tā不bù敢gǎn回家huí jiā,火柴huǒ chái一yì根gēn没méi卖mài出去chū qù,爸爸bà ba会huì打dǎ她tā。

She dared not go home unsold, father would beat her.

她tā在zài墙角qiáng jiǎo坐下zuò xia来lái,擦cā亮liàng一yì根gēn火柴huǒ chái:眼前yǎn qián出现chū xiàn了le一yí个gè大dà火huǒ炉lú。又yòu擦cā一yì根gēn:烤kǎo鹅é朝cháo她tā走zǒu来lái。又yòu一yì根gēn:好hǎo大dà的de圣shèng诞dàn树shù。

In a corner she struck a match, a great stove; another, a roast goose walking to her; another, a Christmas tree.

The last showed her grandmother; she struck the whole bundle to keep her. In the morning she lay frozen, smiling, the burnt matches in her hand.
