From them we will build a bridge. Well done. Build the bridge.

The second micro-stage.

Task: to consolidate the ability to classify blocks according to three criteria, to read code designations.

Go around almost the entire Earth in search of best friend? For the heroine of a fairy tale, this is not at all difficult. Bold and courageous Gerda will overcome any trials in order to save a loved one. And what kind of obstacles can we talk about if a sincere faith in goodness lives in the heart.

History of creation

In 1844, the collection New Tales. Volume one." The book included a story about the adventures of a girl named Gerda, who was desperately looking for her missing friend.

Scientists claim that "The Snow Queen" is the longest fairy tale of the writer. Hans Christian Andersen himself called the work "the fairy tale of my life." Such a statement is justified. Most of the acting characters in a fascinating story are not fictional - they are real people who accompanied Andersen on his life path.

The prototype of the brave Gerda was a girl named Lisbeta. The future heroine of the fairy tale lived not far from little Hans and often came to visit. Over time, the children became so friendly that they began to call each other "sister" and "brother". Lisbeta is the first listener of Andersen's still uncertain, but already interesting stories.


There is a theory that in the confrontation between Gerda and the Danish writer displayed the struggle between religion and science. This idea did not take root in the Soviet Union. It is not surprising, because the fairy tale reached the USSR in a stripped-down version. Mandatory censorship, through which foreign works passed, deleted religious motifs from the tale - in original version memories of helped melt the heart.

Biography

Gerda was born into a poor family. Despite the heavy financial position, parents and grandmother tried to give the child a happy childhood. The family lives under the roof of an apartment building. The young heroine has an attractive appearance:

“The hair curled, and the curls surrounded the girl’s fresh, round, like a rose, face of the girl with a golden glow.”

Mom and dad built a flower garden for Gerda, which the girl looked after with the neighbor boy Kai. The guys have been friends since childhood and spent a lot of time together.


The relationship changed when Kai became a hostage to the fragments of the magic mirror, distorting the perception of the world. Having hit the boy in the eye and in the heart, the fragments turned Kai against Gerda.

The girl's best friend goes missing, the adults decide that the boy is dead. Only Gerda does not accept such a truth and, with the onset of spring, goes in search. The first person the girl addresses is the local river. Gerda offers the elements an exchange: the river returns Kai to her, and the heroine gives her the only value - new red shoes. The river does not help the girl, but takes her to the old witch's house.


The naive Gerda allows herself to be bewitched and carelessly lives in the old woman's house at the end of spring and all summer. Randomness reminds the girl of the goal of her journey. After consulting with local flowers and finding out that Kai is not buried in the ground, Gerda returns to the search.

The road leads the brave girl to a beautiful castle. The questions of the talking raven confirm the guess - Kai lives in the palace and is quite happy with the local princess. The girl persuades the raven to lead her inside. Alas, another boy turns out to be the princess' fiancé.


Kind rulers listen to the sad story and give the girl warm clothes and a golden carriage. The gifts came in very handy. Gerda again sets off on a difficult journey. Bandits attack an expensive carriage in the nearby forest.

Gerda is saved from death by a little robber who decided to take the girl into her collection of curiosities. At night, when the robber falls asleep, white doves tell the girl where to look for Kai. Delighted, Gerda shares what she has learned with the jailer. Despite the environment, the heart of the young robber has not yet hardened. The thief releases Gerda, giving her reindeer as her escort.


So, on the back of a mighty animal, the heroine gets to Lapland. The duo makes their first stop at the house of an old Laplander. The woman, having learned the fate of the deer and Gerda, gives the heroes a strange message written on dried cod for their journey. The old woman asks to convey a message to a familiar Finn.

Having reached Finnmark, Gerda finds the old woman's dwelling. While the heroes are warming up after a long journey, the Finn carefully examines incomprehensible letters. The reindeer, who during the journey has taken a liking to his companion, begs his new acquaintance to help Gerda. But the Finn, seeing the character traits of the girl, has a different opinion on this matter:

“Don’t you see how great her power is? Don't you see that both people and animals serve her? After all, she walked around half the world barefoot! It's not for us to borrow her strength! The strength is in her sweet, innocent baby heart. If she herself cannot penetrate into the halls of the Snow Queen and extract the fragments from Kai's heart, then we will not help her even more!”

Having reached the entrance to the Snow Queen's garden, Gerda is left alone - the reindeer is waiting for her at the entrance. Prayers help the girl reach the castle. The angels who came to help drive away the guards of the Snow Queen from the heroine and do not allow them to harm Gerda.

The house of the evil mistress of the snow fascinates the girl, although during the journey the castles ceased to amaze Gerda. Seeing Kai, the heroine throws herself on her friend's chest. Warm tears rolling from the girl's eyes melt the ice in the boy's heart, and the mention of Christ in his favorite psalm makes Kai himself burst into tears. So fragments of the cursed mirror came out of the body of a young man.


Happy heroes set off on their way back and, having reached their home, they realize that they have matured a lot during the journey. Only their hearts remained the same kind and pure.

It's not for us to borrow her strength! The strength is in her sweet, innocent baby heart. If she herself cannot penetrate into the halls of the Snow Queen and extract the fragments from Kai's heart, then we will not help her even more! Two miles from here begins the Snow Queen's garden. Take the girl there, let her down by a large bush covered with red berries, and, without delay, come back!
