Is traditional fairytales good all the time? Recent research found one in five parents have abandoned those old classics such as Snow White and the Seven Dwarves and Hansel and Gretel and they’re in favor of more modern books.
One third of parents said their children have been left in tears after hearing the terrible details of Little Red Riding Hood. The survey of 2,000 adults was carried out to mark the launch of the hit US drama GRIMM, which starts tonight at 9:00 pm on Watch, and sees six series based on traditional fairytales. The research found a quarter of parents wouldn’t consider reading a fairytale to their child until they had reached the age of five, as they cause too many awkward questions. And 52 percent of the parents said Cinderella didn’t send a good message to their children as it portrays (描绘) a young woman doing housework all day. Similarly, Goldilocks and the Three Bears was also a tale likely to be left on the book shelf as parents felt it condones (宽恕) stealing.
Steve Hornsey, General Manager of Watch, said: “Bedtime stories are supposed to relax the children and send them off to sleep soundly. But as we see in GRIMM, fairytales can be dark and dramatic tales so it’s understandable that parents worry about reading them to young children. As adults we can see the innocence in fairytales, but a five year old with an over active imagination could think they are true. Despite the dark nature of classic fairytales, as we see in GRIMM, good will defeat evil and there is always a moral to the story.”
Though half of parents said traditional tales are more likely to have a strong moral message than a lot of modern kids’ books, two thirds of mums and dads said they were no longer appropriate to soothe youngsters before bed. On the contrary, they might give their children nightmares.
1.Why aren’t some traditional fairytales read by parents to children?
A. They are forbidden to read according to the rules.
B. They are difficult for their children to understand.
C. They are too scary for their young children to hear.
D. They don’t have any strong moral messages in them.
2.Which of the traditional fairytales tells one can get away with stealing?
A. Snow White and the Seven Dwarves.
B. Little Red Riding Hood.
C. Goldilocks and the Three Bears.
D. Hansel and Gretel.
3.What’s the author’s attitude towards traditional fairytales?
A. Objective.B. Supporting.C. Disapproving.D. Doubtful.
4.The underlined word “soothe” in the last paragraph means “________”.
A. surprise B. astonish C. stress D. comfort
