PINOCCHIO

Carlo Collodi

Geppetto, a poor old wood carver, was making a puppet from a tree branch. "You shall be my little boy," he said to the puppet, "and I shall call you 'Pinocchio'." He worked for hours, carefully carving each detail. When he reached the mouth, the puppet started making faces at Geppetto. "Stop that, you naughty boy," Geppetto scolded, "Stop that at once !" "I won't stop !" cried Pinocchio.

"You can talk !" exclaimed Geppetto.

"Of course I can, silly," said the puppet. "You've given me a mouth to talk with." Pinocchio rose to his feet and danced on the table top. "Look what I can do !" he squealed.

"Pinocchio, this is not the time to dance," Geppetto explained. "You must get a good night's rest. Tomorrow you will start going to school with the real boys. You will learn many things, including how to behave."

On his way to school the next morning, Pinocchio stopped to see a puppet show. "I

can dance and sing better than those puppets and I don't need strings," boasted Pinocchio. He climbed onto the stage.

"Get off my stage," roared the Puppet Master. Then he noticed how much the crowd liked Pinocchio. He did not say anything and let Pinocchio stay. "Here, you've earned five copper coins," the Puppet Master told Pinocchio.

"Take these coins and go straight home," said the Puppet Master. Pinocchio put the coins into his sack.

He did not go very far before he met a lame Fox and a blind Cat. Knowing that Pinocchio had money, they pretended to be his friends. "Come with us. We'll teach you how to turn those copper pieces into gold," coaxed the sneaky Cat.

"We want to help you get rich. Plant your coins under this magic tree. In a few hours they'll turn to gold," said the Fox.

"Show me where," said Pinocchio excitedly. The Cat and Fox pointed to a patch of loose dirt. Pinocchio dug a hole and put the sack in it, marking the spot with a stone.

"Splendid !" exclaimed the Cat. "Now let's go to the inn for supper." After supper, the Fox and Cat, who weren't really lame or blind, quickly snuck away and disguised themselves as thieves. They hid by the tree waiting for Pinocchio to come back and dig up the money. After Pinocchio dug up the coins they pounced on him.

"Give us your money !" they ordered. But Pinocchio held the sack between his teeth and resisted to give the sack to them. Again they demanded, "Give us your money !"

Pinocchio's Guardian Fairy, who was dressed all in blue and had blue hair, sent her dog, Rufus, to chase the Fox and Cat away. She ordered Rufus to bring Pinocchio back to her castle. "Please sit down," she told Pinocchio. Rufus kept one eye open to watch what was going on.

"Why didn't you go to school today?" she asked Pinocchio in a sweet voice.

"I did," answered Pinocchio. Just then, his nose shot out like a tree branch. "What's happening to my nose?" he cried.

"Every time you tell a lie, your nose will grow. When you tell the truth, it will shrink," said the Blue Fairy. "Pinocchio, you can only become a real boy if you learn how to be brave, honest and generous."

The Blue Fairy told Pinocchio to go home and not to stop for any reason. Pinocchio tried to remember what the Blue Fairy told him.

On the way to home he met some boys. "Come with us," said the boys. "We know a wonderful place filled with games, giant cakes, pretty candies, and circuses." The boys didn't know that if you were bad, you were turned into donkeys and trained for the circus.

It was not very long before the boys began changing into donkeys. "That's what happens to bad boys," snarled the Circus Master as he made Pinocchio jump through a hoop.

Pinocchio could only grow a donkey's ears, feet, and tail, because he was made of wood. The Circus Master couldn't sell him to any circus. He threw Pinocchio into the sea. The instant Pinocchio hit the water, the donkey tail fell off and his own ears and feet came back. He swam for a very long time. Just when he couldn't swim any longer, he was swallowed by a great whale. "It's dark here," scared Pinocchio said.

Pinocchio kept floating deep into the whale's stomach. "Who's there by the light?" called Pinocchio, his voice echoing.

"Pinocchio, is that you?" asked a tired voice.

"Father, you're alive !" Pinocchio shouted with joy. He wasn't scared anymore. Pinocchio helped Geppetto build a big raft that would hold both of them. When the raft was finished, Pinocchio tickled the whale. "Hold tight, Father. When he sneezes, he'll blow us out of here !" cried Pinocchio.

Home at last, Geppetto tucked Pinocchio into his bed. "Pinocchio, today you were brave, honest and generous," Geppetto said. "You are my son and I love you."

Pinocchio remembered what the Blue Fairy told him. "Father, now that I've proven myself, I'm waiting for something to happen," he whispered as he drifted off to sleep.

The next morning Pinocchio came running down the steps, jumping and waving his arms. I He ran to Geppetto shouting, "Look Father, I'm a real boy !"

The FROG PRINCE

The Brothers Grimm

There was once a handsome young prince who had the misfortune to offend a wicked fairy. To avenge herself she turned him into an ugly frog and put him into a well.

Now it happened that the well was in the courtyard of a king's palace and on fine days, when the sun shone warmly, the king's youngest daughter sometimes came there to amuse herself by tossing a golden ball high into the air and catching it as it fell. The poor frog watched her running to and fro in the sunshine. He thought she was the prettiest princess he had ever seen.

One day, the princess threw the ball up so high that when she stretched out her hand to catch it the ball bounced on the stones and fell with a splash into the water. She ran to the edge of the well and gazed down. But the golden ball had sunk far, far out of sight. Only a little ring of bubbles showed her where it had disappeared. She began to cry bitterly.

The frog popped his head out of the water. "Don't cry, Princess!" he said.

"What will you give me if I bring your ball from the bottom of the well?"

"Oh, I will give you anything I have," replied the princess. "My pretty pearls, my diamonds—even my crown. Only please bring my ball back to me!"

"I do not want your pearls or your diamonds or your crown," said the frog. "But if you will promise to love me, and let me eat from your plate, and drink out of your cup, and sleep on your bed, I will bring your ball safely back to you."

And the princess promised. For she said to herself, "What a silly frog! As if he could ever get out of the well and walk all the way to the palace! He will never find me."

The frog dove to the bottom of the well and presently came up with the golden ball in his mouth.

The princess had no sooner snatched it from him than she forgot all about her promise and ran back to the palace laughing with joy.

The next day, as she sat at dinner with the king and his courtiers, something came flopping up the great staircase—flip flap, flip flap!

And a voice said:

"From the deep and mossy well,

Little princess, where I dwell,

When you wept in grief and pain

I brought your golden ball again."

The princess dropped her spoon with a clatter on her plate, for she knew it was the frog who had come to claim her promise.

"What is the matter, daughter?" asked the king. "There is someone knocking at the door and your rosy cheeks are quite pale."

Then the princess had to tell her father all that had happened the day before how she had dropped her golden ball into the well, and how the frog had brought it up for her, and of the promises she had given him.

The king frowned and said, "People who make promises must keep them. Open the door and let the frog come in."

The princess opened the door very unwillingly and the poor frog hopped into the room, looking up into her face with his ugly little eyes.

"Lift me up beside you," he cried, "that I may eat from your plate and drink out of your cup." The princess did as he asked her and was obliged to finish her dinner with the frog beside her, for the king sat by to see that she fulfilled her promise. When they had finished, the frog said, "I have had enough to eat. Now I am tired. Take me up and lay me on your pillow, that I may go to sleep."

Then the princess began to cry. It was so dreadful to think that an ugly frog, all cold and damp from the well, should sleep in her pretty white bed.

But her father frowned again and said, "People who make promises must keep them. He gave you back your golden ball and you must do as he asks."

So the princess picked the frog up between her thumb and finger, not touching him more than she could help, and carried him upstairs and put him on the pillow on her bed. There he slept all night long. As soon as it was light he jumped up, hopped downstairs, and went out of the palace.

Now, thought the princess, he is gone and I shall be troubled with him no more.

But she was mistaken, for when night came again she heard tapping at the door of her bedroom. When she opened it, the frog came in and slept upon her pillow as before until the morning broke. The third night he did the same. But when the princess awoke the following morning, she was astonished to see, instead of the frog, a handsome prince standing at the head of her bed. He was gazing at her with the most beautiful eyes that ever were seen.

He told her that he had been enchanted by a wicked fairy, who had changed him into the form of a frog, in which he was fated to remain until a princess let him sleep upon her bed for three nights.

"You," said the prince, "have broken this cruel spell and now I have nothing to wish for but that you should go with me to my father's kingdom, where I will marry you and love you as long as you live."

The princess took him to her father and he gave his consent for them to marry. As they spoke a splendid carriage drove up with eight beautiful horses decked with plumes of feathers and golden harness. Behind rode the prince's servant, who had bewailed the misfortune of his dear master so long and so bitterly that his heart had almost burst. Then all set out full of joy for the prince's kingdom. There they arrived safely and lived happily ever after.

SNOW WHITE

Once upon a time in mid winter, when the snowflakes were falling like feathers from heaven, a beautiful queen sat sewing at her window, which had a frame of black ebony wood. As she sewed, she looked up at the snow and pricked her finger with her needle. Three drops of blood fell into the snow. The red on the white looked so beautiful, that she thought, “If only I had a child as white as snow, as red as blood, and as black as this frame.” Soon afterward she had a little daughter that was as white as snow, as red as blood, and as black as ebony wood, and therefore they called her Little Snow-White.

Now the queen was the most beautiful woman in all the land, and very proud of her beauty. She had a mirror, which she stood in front of every morning, and asked:

Mirror, mirror, on the wall,
Who in this land is fairest of all?

And the mirror always said:

You, my queen, are fairest of all.

And then she knew for certain that no one in the world was more beautiful than she.

Now Snow-White grew up, and when she was seven years old, she was so beautiful, that she surpassed even the queen herself. Now when the queen asked her mirror:

Mirror, mirror, on the wall,
Who in this land is fairest of all?

The mirror said:

You, my queen, are fair; it is true.
But Little Snow-White is still
A thousand times fairer than you.

When the queen heard the mirror say this, she became pale with envy, and from that hour on, she hated Snow-White. Whenever she looked at her, she thought that Snow-White was to blame that she was no longer the most beautiful woman in the world. This turned her heart around. Her jealousy gave her no peace. Finally she summoned a huntsman and said to him, “Take Snow-White out into the woods to a remote spot, and stab her to death. As proof that she is dead bring her lungs and her liver back to me. I shall cook them with salt and eat them.”

The huntsman took Snow-White into the woods. When he took out his hunting knife to stab her, she began to cry, and begged fervently that he might spare her life, promising to run away into the woods and never return. The huntsman took pity on her because she was so beautiful, and he thought, “The wild animals will soon devour her anyway. I’m glad that I don’t have to kill her.” Just then a young boar came running by. He killed it, cut out its lungs and liver, and took them back to the queen as proof of Snow-White’s death. She cooked them with salt and ate them, supposing that she had eaten Snow-White’s lungs and liver.

Snow-White was now all alone in the great forest. She was terribly afraid, and began to run. She ran over sharp stones and through thorns the entire day. Finally, just as the sun was about to set, she came to a little house. The house belonged to seven dwarfs. They were working in a mine, and not at home. Snow-White went inside and found everything to be small, but neat and orderly. There was a little table with seven little plates, seven little spoons, seven little knives and forks, seven little mugs, and against the wall there were seven little beds, all freshly made.

Snow-White was hungry and thirsty, so she ate a few vegetables and a little bread from each little plate, and from each little glass she drank a drop of wine. Because she was so tired, she wanted to lie down and go to sleep. She tried each of the seven little beds, one after the other, but none felt right until she came to the seventh one, and she lay down in it and fell asleep.

When night came, the seven dwarfs returned home from the work. They lit their seven little candles, and saw that someone had been in their house.

The first one said, “Who has been sitting in my chair?”

The second one, “Who has been eating from my plate?”

The third one, “Who has been eating my bread?”

The fourth one, “Who has been eating my vegetables?”

The fifth one, “Who has been sticking with my fork?”

The sixth one, “Who has been cutting with my knife?”

The seventh one, “Who has been drinking from my mug?”

Then the first one said, “Who stepped on my bed?”

The second one, “And someone has been lying in my bed.”

And so forth until the seventh one, and when he looked at his bed, he found Snow-White lying there, fast asleep. The seven dwarfs all came running, and they cried out with amazement. They fetched their seven candles and looked at Snow-White. “Good heaven! Good heaven!” they cried. “She is so beautiful!” They liked her very much. They did not wake her up, but let her lie there in the bed. The seventh dwarf had to sleep with his companions, one hour with each one, and then the night was done.

When Snow-White woke up, they asked her who she was and how she had found her way to their house. She told them how her mother had tried to kill her, how the huntsman had spared her life, how she had run the entire day, finally coming to their house. The dwarfs pitied her and said, “If you will keep house for us, and cook, sew, make beds, wash, and knit, and keep everything clean and orderly, then you can stay here, and you’ll have everything that you want. We come home in the evening, and supper must be ready by then, but we spend the days digging for gold in the mine. You will be alone then. Watch out for the queen, and do not let anyone in.”

The queen thought that she was again the most beautiful woman in the land, and the next morning she stepped before the mirror and asked:

Mirror, mirror, on the wall,
Who in this land is fairest of all?

The mirror answered once again:

You, my queen, are fair; it is true.
But Little Snow-White beyond the seven mountains
Is a thousand times fairer than you.

It startled the queen to hear this, and she knew that she had been deceived, that the huntsman had not killed Snow-White. Because only the seven dwarfs lived in the seven mountains, she knew at once that they must have rescued her. She began to plan immediately how she might kill her, because she would have no peace until the mirror once again said that she was the most beautiful woman in the land. At last she thought of something to do. She disguised herself as an old peddler woman and colored her face, so that no one would recognize her, and went to the dwarf’s house. Knocking on the door she called out, “Open up. Open up. I’m the old peddler woman with good wares for sale.”

Snow-White peered out the window, “What do you have?”

“Bodice laces, dear child,” said the old woman, and held one up. It was braided from yellow, red, and blue silk. “Would you like this one?”

“Oh, yes,” said Snow-White, thinking, “I can let the old woman come in. She means well.” She unbolted the door and bargained for the bodice laces.

“You are not laced up properly,” said the old woman. “Come here, I’ll do it better.” Snow-White stood before her, and she took hold of the laces and pulled them so tight that Snow-White could not breathe, and she fell down as if she were dead. Then the old woman was satisfied, and she went away.

Nightfall soon came, and the seven dwarfs returned home. They were horrified to find their dear Snow-White lying on the ground as if she were dead. They lifted her up and saw that she was laced up too tightly. They cut the bodice laces in two, and then she could breathe, and she came back to life. “It must have been the queen who tried to kill you,” they said. “Take care and do not let anyone in again.”

The queen asked her mirror:

Mirror, mirror, on the wall,
Who in this land is fairest of all?

The mirror answered once again:

You, my queen, are fair; it is true.
But Little Snow-White with the seven dwarfs
Is a thousand times fairer than you.

She was so horrified that the blood all ran to her heart, because she knew that Snow-White had come back to life. Then for an entire day and a night she planned how she might catch her. She made a poisoned comb, disguised herself differently, and went out again. She knocked on the door, but Snow-White called out, “I am not allowed to let anyone in.”

Then she pulled out the comb, and when Snow-White saw how it glistened, and noted that the woman was a complete stranger, she opened the door, and bought the comb from her. “Come, let me comb your hair,” said the peddler woman. She had barely stuck the comb into Snow-White’s hair, before the girl fell down and was dead. “That will keep you lying there,” said the queen. And she went home with a light heart.

The dwarfs came home just in time. They saw what had happened and pulled the poisoned comb from her hair. Snow-White opened her eyes and came back to life. She promised the dwarfs not to let anyone in again.

The queen stepped before her mirror:

Mirror, mirror, on the wall,
Who in this land is fairest of all?

The mirror answered:

You, my queen, are fair; it is true.
But Little Snow-White with the seven dwarfs
Is a thousand times fairer than you.

When the queen heard this, she shook and trembled with anger, “Snow-White will die, if it costs me my life!” Then she went into her most secret room — no one else was allowed inside — and she made a poisoned, poisoned apple. From the outside it was red and beautiful, and anyone who saw it would want it. Then she disguised herself as a peasant woman, went to the dwarfs’ house and knocked on the door.

Snow-White peeped out and said, “I’m not allowed to let anyone in. The dwarfs have forbidden it most severely.”

“If you don’t want to, I can’t force you,” said the peasant woman. “I am selling these apples, and I will give you one to taste.”

“No, I can’t accept anything. The dwarfs don’t want me to.”

“If you are afraid, then I will cut the apple in two and eat half of it. Here, you eat the half with the beautiful red cheek!” Now the apple had been so artfully made that only the red half was poisoned. When Snow-White saw that the peasant woman was eating part of the apple, her desire for it grew stronger, so she finally let the woman hand her the other half through the window. She bit into it, but she barely had the bite in her mouth when she fell to the ground dead.

The queen was happy, went home, and asked her mirror:

Mirror, mirror, on the wall,
Who in this land is fairest of all?

And it answered:

You, my queen, are fairest of all.

“Now I’ll have some peace,” she said, “because once again I’m the most beautiful woman in the land. Snow-White will remain dead this time.”

That evening the dwarfs returned home from the mines. Snow-White was lying on the floor, and she was dead. They loosened her laces and looked in her hair for something poisonous, but nothing helped. They could not bring her back to life. They laid her on a bier, and all seven sat next to her and cried and cried for three days. They were going to bury her, but they saw that she remained fresh. She did not look at all like a dead person, and she still had beautiful red cheeks. They had a glass coffin made for her, and laid her inside, so that she could be seen easily. They wrote her name and her ancestry on it in gold letters, and one of them always stayed at home and kept watch over her.

Snow-White lay there in the coffin a long, long time, and she did not decay. She was still as white as snow and as red as blood, and if she had been able to open her eyes, they still would have been as black as ebony wood. She lay there as if she were asleep.

One day a young prince came to the dwarfs’ house and wanted shelter for the night. When he came into their parlor and saw Snow-White lying there in a glass coffin, illuminated so beautifully by seven little candles, he could not get enough of her beauty. He read the golden inscription and saw that she was the daughter of a king. He asked the dwarfs to sell him the coffin with the dead Snow-White, but they would not do this for any amount of gold. Then he asked them to give her to him, for he could not live without being able to see her, and he would keep her, and honor her as his most cherished thing on earth. Then the dwarfs took pity on him and gave him the coffin.

The prince had it carried to his castle, and had it placed in a room where he sat by it the whole day, never taking his eyes from it. Whenever he had to go out and was unable to see Snow-White, he became sad. And he could not eat a bite, unless the coffin was standing next to him. Now the servants who always had to carry the coffin to and fro became angry about this. One time one of them opened the coffin, lifted Snow-White upright, and said, “We are plagued the whole day long, just because of such a dead girl,” and he hit her in the back with his hand. Then the terrible piece of apple that she had bitten off came out of her throat, and Snow-White came back to life.

She walked up to the prince, who was beside himself with joy to see his beloved Snow-White alive. They sat down together at the table and ate with joy.

Their wedding was set for the next day, and Snow-White’s godless mother was invited as well. That morning she stepped before the mirror and said:

Mirror, mirror, on the wall,
Who in this land is fairest of all?
The mirror answered:
You, my queen, are fair; it is true.
But the young queen
Is a thousand times fairer than you.

She was horrified to hear this, and so overtaken with fear that she could not say anything. Still, her jealousy drove her to go to the wedding and see the young queen. When she arrived she saw that it was Snow-White. Then they put a pair of iron shoes into the fire until they glowed, and she had to put them on and dance in them. Her feet were terribly burned, and she could not stop until she had danced herself to death.

RAPUNZEL

There were once a man and a woman who had long, in vain, wished for a child. At length it appeared that God was about to grant their desire.

These people had a little window at the back of their house from which a splendid garden could be seen, which was full of the most beautiful flowers and herbs. It was, however, surrounded by a high wall, and no one dared to go into it because it belonged to an enchantress, who had great power and was dreaded by all the world.

One day the woman was standing by this window and looking down into the garden, when she saw a bed which was planted with the most beautiful rampion, and it looked so fresh and green that she longed for it. She quite pined away, and began to look pale and miserable.

Her husband was alarmed, and asked: 'What ails you, dear wife?'

'Ah,' she replied, 'if I can't eat some of the rampion, which is in the garden behind our house, I shall die.'

The man, who loved her, thought: 'Sooner than let your wife die, bring her some of the rampion yourself, let it cost what it will.'

At twilight, he clambered down over the wall into the garden of the enchantress, hastily clutched a handful of rampion, and took it to his wife. She at once made herself a salad of it, and ate it greedily. It tasted so good to her - so very good, that the next day she longed for it three times as much as before.

If he was to have any rest, her husband knew he must once more descend into the garden. Therefore, in the gloom of evening, he let himself down again; but when he had clambered down the wall he was terribly afraid, for he saw the enchantress standing before him.

'How can you dare,' said she with angry look, 'descend into my garden and steal my rampion like a thief? You shall suffer for it!'


< 2 >


'Ah,' answered he, 'let mercy take the place of justice, I only made up my mind to do it out of necessity. My wife saw your rampion from the window, and felt such a longing for it that she would have died if she had not got some to eat.'

The enchantress allowed her anger to be softened, and said to him: 'If the case be as you say, I will allow you to take away with you as much rampion as you will, only I make one condition, you must give me the child which your wife will bring into the world; it shall be well treated, and I will care for it like a mother.'

The man in his terror consented to everything.

When the woman was brought to bed, the enchantress appeared at once, gave the child the name of Rapunzel, and took it away with her.

Rapunzel grew into the most beautiful child under the sun. When she was twelve years old, the enchantress shut her into a tower in the middle of a forest. The tower had neither stairs nor door, but near the top was a little window. When the enchantress wanted to go in, she placed herself beneath it and cried:




'Rapunzel, Rapunzel,

Let down your hair to me.'




Rapunzel had magnificent long hair, fine as spun gold, and when she heard the voice of the enchantress, she unfastened her braided tresses, wound them round one of the hooks of the window above, and then the hair fell twenty ells down, and the enchantress climbed up by it.

After a year or two, it came to pass that the king's son rode through the forest and passed by the tower. Then he heard a song, which was so charming that he stood still and listened. It was Rapunzel, who in her solitude passed her time in letting her sweet voice resound. The king's son wanted to climb up to her, and looked for the door of the tower, but none was to be found. He rode home, but the singing had so deeply touched his heart, that every day he went out into the forest and listened to it.


< 3 >


Once when he was thus standing behind a tree, he saw that an enchantress came there, and he heard how she cried:





'Rapunzel, Rapunzel,

Let down your hair to me.'




Then Rapunzel let down the braids of her hair, and the enchantress climbed up to her.

'If that is the ladder by which one mounts, I too will try my fortune,' said he, and the next day when it began to grow dark, he went to the tower and cried:





'Rapunzel, Rapunzel,

Let down your hair to me.'




Immediately the hair fell down and the king's son climbed up.

At first Rapunzel was terribly frightened when a man, such as her eyes had never yet beheld, came to her; but the king's son began to talk to her quite like a friend, and told her that his heart had been so stirred that it had let him have no rest, and he had been forced to see her. Then Rapunzel lost her fear, and when he asked her if she would take him for her husband, and she saw that he was young and handsome, she thought: 'He will love me more than old Dame Gothel does'; and she said yes, and laid her hand in his.

She said: 'I will willingly go away with you, but I do not know how to get down. Bring with you a skein of silk every time that you come, and I will weave a ladder with it, and when that is ready I will descend, and you will take me on your horse.'

They agreed that until that time he should come to her every evening, for the old woman came by day. The enchantress remarked nothing of this, until once Rapunzel said to her: 'Tell me, Dame Gothel, how it happens that you are so much heavier for me to draw up than the young king's son - he is with me in a moment.'


< 4 >


'Ah! you wicked child,' cried the enchantress. 'What do I hear you say! I thought I had separated you from all the world, and yet you have deceived me!'

In her anger she clutched Rapunzel's beautiful tresses, wrapped them twice round her left hand, seized a pair of scissors with the right, and snip, snap, they were cut off, and the lovely braids lay on the ground. And she was so pitiless that she took poor Rapunzel into a desert where she had to live in great grief and misery.

On the same day that she cast out Rapunzel, however, the enchantress fastened the braids of hair, which she had cut off, to the hook of the window, and when the king's son came and cried:





'Rapunzel, Rapunzel,

Let down your hair to me.'




she let the hair down. The king's son ascended, but instead of finding his dearest Rapunzel, he found the enchantress, who gazed at him with wicked and venomous looks.

'Aha!' she cried mockingly, 'you would fetch your dearest, but the beautiful bird sits no longer singing in the nest; the cat has got it, and will scratch out your eyes as well. Rapunzel is lost to you; you will never see her again.'

The king's son was beside himself with pain, and in his despair he leapt down from the tower. He escaped with his life, but the thorns into which he fell pierced his eyes.

He wandered quite blind about the forest, ate nothing but roots and berries, and did naught but lament and weep over the loss of his dearest wife. Thus he roamed about in misery for some years, and at length came to the desert where Rapunzel, with the twins to which she had given birth, a boy and a girl, lived in wretchedness. He heard a voice, and it seemed so familiar to him that he went towards it, and when he approached, Rapunzel knew him and fell on his neck and wept. Two of her tears wetted his eyes and they grew clear again, and he could see with them as before. He led her to his kingdom where he was joyfully received, and they lived for a long time afterwards, happy and contented.

Pemanasan Dulu Baru Olahraga

Begitu juga dengan munculnya beberapa perkumpulan olahraga masyarakat seperti senam aerobik dan olahraga bersepeda. Sejauh pengamatan penulis, pelaku olahraga masih banyak yang kurang menyadari bagaimana berolahraga yang baik dan aman, terutama pada pemanasan. Pemahaman yang ada di masyarakat bahwa pemanasan itu bertujuan untuk mencegah cedera. Ini adalah pemahaman yang tidak sepenuhnya benar.

Apakah dengan pemanasan pelaku olahraga dapat terhindar dari cedera? Tentu saja tidak. Potensi cedera dalam olahraga bukan hanya dikarenakan faktor kurang/tidaknya pemanasan, tetapi juga karakter/tipe olahraga yang dilakukan memiliki andil yang tidak sedikit. Sebagai contoh, karakter cabang olahraga sepak bola yang lebih banyak terjadi kontak fisik (body contact) antar pemain, memiliki potensi cedera yang lebih besar daripada olahraga bulu tangkis yang permainannya dibatasi jaring/net. Harus diakui, apapun cabang olahraganya pasti berpotensi cedera.

Untuk meminimalisir risiko cedera maka pelaku olahraga wajib melakukan pemanasan terlebih dahulu. Pelaku olahraga masih banyak yang mengabaikan tahapan berolahraga yang bermanfaat dan aman (jauh dari risiko cedera). Sebagaimana kegiatan memasak yang diawali dengan menyiapkan bahan, memasak, dan diakhiri dengan penyajian, olahraga pun harus diawali dengan pemanasan (warming-up), latihan inti, dan diakhiri dengan pendinginan (cooling-down). Ketiga tahapan olahraga tersebut sangat penting sehingga harus dilakukan oleh pelaku olahraga tanpa terkecuali.

Diantara ketiga tata cara berolahraga itu, tahap pemanasan merupakan tahap yang penting, namun sering diabaikan. Jangankan masyarakat awam, atlet pun terkadang tidak melakukannya. Beberapa sebab antara lain: ketidaktahuan pelaku, kurangnya kesadaran pelaku, dan malas melakukan pemanasan. Seringkali kita melihat pelaku olahraga datang ke lapangan, pakai sepatu, dan langsung main tanpa pemanasan lebih dulu.

Pengertian Pemanasan

Pada dasarnya setiap aktivitas olahraga terdiri dari pemanasan, kegiatan inti, dan pendinginan. Ketiga tahap ini hendaknya menjadi pedoman para pelaku olahraga ketika melakukan kegiatan olahraga. Pemanasan (warming-up) adalah aktivitas yang berisi gerakan-gerakan yang mendukung aktivitas inti dari olahraga yang akan dilakukan berikutnya.

Aktivitas pemanasan berisikan peregangan statis, dinamis, dan gerakan-gerakan formal olahraga yang akan dilakukan.

Mengapa harus pemanasan. Berolahraga berarti menggerakkan seluruh atau sebagian anggota tubuh. Gerak yang dilakukan dalam berolahraga berbeda dengan kegiatan sehari-hari. Bagian tubuh yang digerakkan adalah otot dan sendi. Tujuan pemanasan adalah untuk menyiapkan otot dan sendi tubuh sebelum aktivitas olahraga yang sesungguhnya, dengan cara menaikkan suhu tubuh kurang lebih satu derajat celcius. Kenaikan suhu tubuh yang diikuti dengan meningkatnya denyut jantung menyebabkan aliran darah ke seluruh tubuh menjadi lebih cepat sehingga pasokan oksigen ke dalam otot menjadi lebih banyak. Akibatnya, pelaku olahraga akan mampu menggerakkan anggota tubuh dengan cepat, kuat, sudut gerak yang luas, dan rasa nyaman.

Sedangkan manfaat pemanasan yaitu meminimalkan risiko cedera olahraga. Secara psikologis, pemanasan bermanfaat pada kepercayaan diri dan rasa nyaman. Akibat yang sering terjadi jika tidak melakukan pemanasan yaitu otot dan sendi tubuh terasa kaku, kram otot dan rasa pegal.

Secara umum pemanasan terdiri dari tiga cara yang dilakukan oleh pelaku olahraga yaitu: peregangan statis, peregangan dinamis, dan gerakan-gerakan formal olahraga inti. Peregangan statis adalah peregangan dengan meregangkan sendi dan otot tubuh sejauh/seluas mungkin sampai hampir terasa sakit, kemudian sikap tersebut ditahan sampai dengan 20 hitungan. Gerakan ini dilakukan pada seluruh sendi tubuh.

Peregangan dinamis dilakukan dengan memutar dan memantul-mantulkan sendi dan otot tubuh, gerakan tersebut dilakukan sampai dengan 20 hitungan. Peregangan dinamis berisikan gerakan memanjangkan dan memendekkan otot dan sendi, dan memutar-mutarkan otot dan sendi tubuh.

Peregangan statis dan dinamis ini sebaiknya dikenakan pada otot dan sendi tubuh secara berurutan, dari atas ke bawah ataupun sebaliknya. Maksudnya ialah mulai dari leher, bahu, punggung, sampai ujung kaki atau sebaliknya. Perlu diketahui bahwa peregangan statis dan dinamis ini dapat juga digunakan sebagai latihan kelenturan (fleksibilipis).

Setelah keduanya dilakukan, selanjutnya pelaku melakukan gerakan-gerakan formalitas yang mirip gerakan olahraga

sesungguhnya. Gerakan ini bisa dilakukan dengan alat ataupun tanpa alat. Sebagai contoh, pelaku olahraga sepak bola melakukan sprints pendek dan mendribel bola. Kecukupan dalam melakukan pemanasan diukur dengan jumlah denyut nadi yaitu 60%-70 persen  dari denyut nadi maksimal (DNM). Untuk menghitung DNM baca Bapos 1 Desember 2007.

Akhirnya penulis mengajak kepada seluruh masyarakat untuk terus berolahraga dan meningkatkan kesadaran melakukan pemanasan terlebih dahulu agar olahraga yang kita lakukan dapat bermanfaat dan aman. Wallahu ‘alam bissawab. (*)

Offense 2131

Strategi offense ini termasuk dalam 2-3 zone offense play. Kunci awal dari offense ini adalah bagaimana posisi 4 dapat mengalihkan lawan yang ada di center zone dan posisi 2 dapat mem-pick lawan (posisi 2) agar play maker dapat masuk ke dalam.

Diagram A adalah awal dari kunci tersebut. Posisi 4 turun sampai di belakang lawan (posisi 1) sehingga lawan yang ada di center zone (dalam diagram adalah posisi 4) terbawa agak maju mengikuti posisi 4 tadi. Kemudian Posisi 2 mulai membantu posisi 1 agar dapat masuk, yaitu dengan mem-pick lawan (posisi 2) yang menjaga posisi 1.

Pada diagram B, posisi 1 masuk (drive) seolah-olah akan langsung menuju ring lawan. Lawan (posisi 3) pun terpancing untuk menahan posisi 1 yang masuk tadi sehingga posisi 5 dapat bebas atau penjagaannya menjadi kurang.

Dalam diagram C, posisi 1 yang tadi masuk dan mulai ditahan oleh lawan (posisi 3) langsung mengoperkan bola pada posisi 5 yang sudah agak bebas. Satu hal lagi yang penting, posisi 3 mulai masuk ke dalam, karena dengan masuknya posisi 3 membuat lawan (posisi 5) menjaga dia sehingga posisi 5 yang tadi mendapat bola lebih bebas untuk langsung memasukkan bola ke dalam ring.

Offensive 23 Zona Easy Attack

trategi Offense ini dapat dikatakan mudah. Maksud mudah di sini adalah tidak terlalau rumit dan tidak sulit untuk dilakukan. Namun, ada satu masalah yang memungkinkan pola offense ini gagal, yaitu pergerakan lawan yang tidak kita harapkan. Oleh karena itu setiap posisi harus benar-benar menjalankan fungsinya masing-masing sesuai dengan pola offense ini. Satu hal lagi yang penting, pertahan lawan adalah pola 2-3 sehingga kita lakukan pola awal offense 1-3-1.

Pada diagram A, posisi 1 melakukan aba-aba atau kode sehingga rekan tim mengerti dan bisa langsung bergerak. Ketika posisi 1 melakukan passing (operan) ke posisi 2, maka posisi lainnya langsung melakukan pergerakan (dapat dilihat pada diagram A arah pergerakannya). Setelah mendapat bola, posisi 2 langsung memberikan passing ke posisi 5 yang telah ada di zona kanan pertahanan lawan.

Kemudian dilanjutkan pada diagram B, setelah posisi 5 mendapatkan bola tentunya lawan (posisi 4) akan mulai menjaga posisi 5 tersebut. Di sinilah kunci dari serangan ini, yaitu posisi 4 bergerak masuk dari zona tengah ke arah ring. Di sini pula posisi 5 melakukan gerak tipu yang seolah-olah dia akan melakukan passing ke posisi 4 sehingga lawan (posisi 5) akan terbawa mundur menjaga posisi 4 tadi. Ketika zona tengah kosong, posisi 3 langsung masuk ke zona kosong tersebut.

Diagram C, Posisi 5 langsung melakukan passing ke posisi 3 yang telah bebas berada di zona tengah. Posisi 3 pun bisa langsung shoot untuk mencetak skor. Ada juga cara lain selain langsung shoot, posisi 3 dribel masuk mendekati ring (drive) sehingga lawan (posisi 5) pasti akan maju mencoba memotong. Ketika itulah posisi 3 dapat melakukan gerak tipu (fake) yang seolah-olah mau shooting ternyata memberikan passing ke posisi 4 yang penjagaanya kurang di bawah ring. Kemudian posisi 4 dapat langsung memasukkan bola ke ring lawan.

Strategi 1-2-2 Zone Defense

Zone defense ini memang tidak terlalu umum, apalagi bagi para pemula yang mungkin lebih banyak mengenal 2-3 zone defense. 1-2-2 Zone defense ini tidak terlalu sulit untuk dipelajari, tetapi tiap posisi pemain memiliki pergerakan yang memang harus benar-banar dilatih. Set dari zone defense ini dapat dilihat pada diagram A di atas.

Diagram B di atas memperlihatkan adanya pergerakan dari musuh (posisi 2) yang berada di wing zone. Pergerakan dari kita untuk menahan atau cover lawan tersebut, yaitu posisi 2 maju untuk menahan lawan (posisi 2), serta posisi 1 bergerak turun ke tempat posisi awal dari posisi 2. Hal ini juga berlaku apabila serangan musuk dimulai dari arah kanan pertahanan (wing kanan) sehingga yang menahan lawan nanti adalah posisi 3, serta posisi 1 akan turun dan menempati posisi awal dari posisi 3.

Selanjutnya posisi 1 dapat maju untuk membantu posisi 2 menahan lawan (posisi 2) sehingga lawan akan kesulitan dalam bergerak dan kesulitan dalam passing bola. Dapat dilihat pada diagram C di atas.

Dalam diaram D menunjukkan lawan (posisi 2) berhasil member pass pada lawan (posisi 4). Apabila ini terjadi, posisi 4 maju untuk menahan lawan (posisi 4), serta posisi 1 yang tadi membantu posisi 2 dapat mundur ke posisi sebelumnya.

Selanjutnya posisi 2 dapat membantu posisi 4 dengan menjepit lawan (posisi 4), serta posisi 1 kembali mengcover lawan (posisi 2). Apabila dilihat lawan (posisi 4) sebenarnya dalam keadaan terjebak di pojok, kesulitan dalam bergerak, dan passing. Keadaan ini dapat menyebabkan lawan (posisi 4) panik dan mudah sekali tercuri bolanya.

My Basketball

Bola Basket adalah sebuah tim olahraga di mana dua tim yang masing-masing lima pemain aktif mencoba untuk skor poin terhadap satu sama lain oleh yg melemparkan bola melalui 10 kaki (3 m) tingginya lenja (tujuan) yang diselenggarakan di bawah aturan. Bola Basket adalah salah satu yang paling populer dan banyak dilihat olahraga di dunia.

BASKETBALL POSITIONS

Point Guard (PG) biasanya disebut posisi 1, yaitu playmaker. Tugasnya kebanyakan mencari ruang untuk teman yg lain agar bisa mendapat skor. Kelebihan yg harus ada, yaitu passing, speed, dribling dan shooting 3p.

Shooting Guard (SG) atau posisi 2, lebih dibutuhkan untuk mencetak skor atau membuat poin. Tangguh menerobos defense tim lawan dan sangat dibutuhkan untuk membuat poin.

Small Forward (SF) atau posisi 3, hampir sama dengan no 2, bedanya saat defense dia harus bisa rebound, karena posisi dia saat defense agak di belakang sehingga defense-nya harus lebih baik.

Power Forward (PF) atau posisi 4, lebih condong pada defense. Dia adalah teman Center, jadi harus kuat dalam blok out, rebound dan jangan lupa inside scoring saat offense. Contoh : Amare Stoudermire n Lolik.

Center (C) atau posisi 5, pemain terakhir yang ada di kotak defense, sama seperti posisi 4 ,tetapi center harus lebih kuat, bisa defense dan offensive rebound, serta aerial shootingnya.
