Cinderella's story

We all know Cinderella. She's a princess. She 1 a beautiful

dress with a shiny tiara, glass shoes, and long white gloves. She lives with a wicked stepmother and stepsisters, who treat her as their maid. With some help she meets and dances with

a very 2 prince, then hurries home before the clock

3 midnight and her 4 becomes a pumpkin again.

But that's not the real Cinderella. That's the Disney Cinderella,

the one from the 1950 animated film and the new 5 in

cinemas right now. The real Cinderella isn't so easy to describe.

She is a 6 who mixes together centuries of storytelling

from many different cultures. In total, more than 500 versions of the Cinderella story have been found in Europe alone, and the Cinderella we know best comes from there.

However, the first recorded story with a Cinderella-like figure

7  back to the sixth century BC in Greece. In that ancient

story, a Greek woman named Rhodopis has one of her shoes stolen by an eagle, who flies it all the way across the Mediterranean and drops it in the 8 of an Egyptian king.

Taking the shoe drop as a 9 from the heavens (both

literally and metaphorically), the king goes on a mission to find

the 10 of the shoe. When he finds Rhodopis, he marries

her, lifting her from her low status to the throne.

How potatoes became popular in Greece

Count John Kapodistrias was elected as the first head of

state of independent Greece (1827-33) after a long 1___________

in European politics and diplomacy. He is considered the

founder of the 2 Greek State, and the founder of Greek

independence. Among other things, in an effort to raise the

living 3 of the population he introduced the cultivation

of the potato into Greece.

4 to legend, Kapodistrias ordered that potatoes should

be 5 to anyone who was interested. However the

population was unwilling at first to accept the offer. The legend continues, that he then ordered that the whole shipment of potatoes was unloaded on public display on the docks of Nafplion, and placed it under guard to make the people 6

 that they were valuable. Soon, people would 7 to

look at the guarded potatoes and.some started to steal them. The guards had been ordered in advance to turn a blind 8

 to such behaviour, and soon the potatoes had all been

"stolen" and Kapodistrias' plan to 9 them to Greece had

succeeded. And now some of the most famous Greek dishes, like moussaka, use potatoes as a basic 10       .
