高中英语作文5700字：蓝胡子(Blue Beard)
蓝胡子
(一)
从前，有一位富翁，他住着漂亮的房子，还有一座美丽的花园。这位富翁留着一副蓝胡子，因此，大家叫他“蓝胡子”。
在富翁的房子附近住着一个穷女人，她有三个儿子和两个漂亮的女儿。一个女儿的名字叫安，另一个女儿叫法蒂玛。蓝胡子想要娶其中的一个女儿为妻，但是，两个女儿都不愿和蓝胡子结婚。
安和法蒂玛不愿同这位富翁结婚，是因为他的胡子是蓝色的。蓝胡子已经娶了很多妻子，但他的妻子都不见了，谁也不知道他的那些妻子哪儿去了。这俩姑娘不愿和蓝胡子结婚，当他的妻子，因为没人知道他的妻子的去向。因此，她们的母亲对蓝胡子说：“我的女儿不想和你结婚。”
这时，蓝胡子说：“来我家住几天吧。”于是，她们来到蓝胡子家住下。这房子真漂亮，蓝胡子处处对她们都特别好。
法蒂玛说：“他的胡子是蓝色的，但他不是一个坏人，在有些地方，他是很好的，所以我愿嫁给他。”
于是，法蒂玛和蓝胡子结婚了，住到了这所漂亮的房子里。
几天过去了。蓝胡子说：“我要去旅行。”然后，他把这座房子里所有的房间钥匙都给了法蒂玛，他说：“这一把钥匙是那间小屋的，千万别打开那间屋子的门……你说，你一定不会打开小屋子的门!”
法蒂玛就说：“我决不会打开那间小屋的门。”
于是，蓝胡子就走了。
当蓝胡子不在家时，法蒂玛的所有朋友都来看她。她带朋友们观看了许多房间，房子确实很豪华。但是，她没有打开那间小屋的门。
朋友们都走了，她自言自语道：“现在，我能打开那间小屋吗?他为什么说，‘不能打开它?’我想看看小屋里究竟有什么东西。”
