The beautiful palace. there was once a king who built a large and beautiful palace and gave it to his four children to live in.the first brother to arrive took all the upstairs rooms for himself.the first sister arrive took all the downstairs rooms for herself.they spend much of their time arguing and fighting,because each one wanted to be in charge of the whole palace. when the second brother and sister arrived,there were no rooms left for them.''as i am very king''said the first brother to the younger one,''i will give you one of my very own rooms if you do all the work in the fields,growing all the food.''i am very kind,too,said the first sister to the younger one,''so i will give you one of my very own rooms if you do all the cooking and cleaning and washing.''of course,the rooms offered were the smallest of the many rooms in the whole palace but the younger brother and sister had no choice if they wanted a roof over their heads.so they worked all day long,growing the food,cooking,cleaning and washing.they knew that this was not what their father had wanted for them,when he built the large and beautiful palace,because he loved all four of his children equally.but the work was so hard that they were too tired to complain to their elder brother and sister. when their elder brother saw the younger one become ill from overwork he said.''i will give him some medicine to make him better.i'm sure my father will be pleased with me for my kindness.''when the elder sister saw the younger one was cold because her clothes were thin and worn out,she said.''i will give her the black coat that has got too tight for me.i'm sure my father will be pleased with me for my kindness.'' then, one day,when nobody was expected him,the king arrived at the palace to visit his children. надо перевести,
