It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and, if a parent can produce what, in the actual situation of the time and the child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better. A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or making him sad thinking. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often sorry for cruelty than those who had not. As to fears, there are, I think, some cases of children being dangerously terrified by some fairy story. Often, however, this arises from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear faced and mastered.There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true, that giants, witches, two - headed dragons, magic carpets, etc. do not exist; and that, instead of being fond of the strange side in fairy tales, the child should be taught to learn the reality by studying history. I find such people, I must say so peculiar that I do not know how to argue with them. If their case were sound, the world should be full of mad men attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a stick or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their beloved girlfriend.No fairy story ever declared to be a description of the real world and no clever child has ever believed that it was.24 . Which does the author consider an effective way for a parent to treat a fairy story?ARepeating it without any change.BTelling it in a humorous way.CMaking some changes accordingly.DIncluding a fanciful situation25 . According to the passage, when can a fairy story cause fear for kids?AWhen its told in a realistic setting.BWhen its told in a different way.CWhen its repeated too often.DWhen its heard for the first time.26 . Why are some people not in favor of fairy tales?ABecause they are full of absurd imagination and strange characters.BBecause they are made up of stories far from the truth or reality.CBecause they are not interesting or instructive.DBecause they make teachers of history difficult to teach.27 . What is the purpose of the authors mentioning sticks and telephones in Paragraph 3?ATo prove that fairy stories arent still being made up.BTo encourage people to modernize fairy tales.CTo justify the public concern for childrens fear nowadays:DTo show there is some misunderstanding about fairy tales.四、句型转换Sentence transformation28 .
