Part 5 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice)
A child who has once been plead with a tale likes, as a rule, to have it retold in identically the same words, but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairy stories as sacred (上帝的) texts. 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 circumstances of the time and the individual 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 arousing his sadistic (施虐狂的) impuls. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often guilty of cruelty than tho who had not. As to fear, I think, we also need well-documented cas of children being dangerously terrified (恐惧) by some fairy story. Often, however, this aris 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, th
at giants, witches (⼥巫), two-headed dragons, magic carpets (魔毯), etc., do not exist; and that, instead of indulging (沉溺) his fantasies in fairy tales, the child should be taught how to adapt to reality by studying history and mechanics. I find such people, I must confess, so unsympathetic and peculiar that I do not know how to argue with them. If their ca were sound, the world should be full of mad men attempting to fly from New Y ork to Philadelphia on a broomstick
(⼥巫乘骑的扫帚柄) or covering a telephone with kiss in the belief that it was their enchanted (中魔法的) girl-friend.
No fairy story ever claimed to be a description of the external world and no sane (精神健全的) child has ever believed that it was.

ruberA. repeated without variation
B. treated with respect
C. adapted by the parent
D. t in the prent
2. Some people dislike fairy stories becau they feel that they ________.
A. tempt people to be cruel to children

3. According to the passage great fear can be stimulated in a child when the story is ________.
A. t in reality
B. heard for the first time
C. repeated too often
D. dramatically told
4. The author's mention of broomsticks and telephones is meant to suggest that ________.
A. fairy stories are still being made up
B. there is confusion about different kinds of truth
C. people try to modernize old fairy stories
D. there is more concern for children's fears nowadays
5. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Fairy stories are anything but beneficial to the growth of children.
B. Fairy stories teach children the way to adapt to the society.

Questions 6 to 10 are bad on the following passage or dialog.
Standing alone at the Browns' party, Anna Mackintosh thought about her husband Edward, establishi
ng him clearly in her mind's eye. He was a thin man, forty-one years of age, with fair hair that was often untidy. In the venteen years they'd been married he had changed very little; he was still nervous with other people, and smiled in the same embarrasd way, and his face was still almost boyish.
