How to Avoid Junk Sleep E Are 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 prefer 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(格林 ), 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（尷尬的） questions. And 52 percent of the parents said Cinderella didn’t send a good message to their children as it portrays (描繪 ) 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 (寬恕 ) 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(道德準則 ,教育意義 ) to the story.” Though half of parents said traditional tales are more lik ely to have a strong moral message than a lot of modern kids’ books, two thirds of mums and dads said they were no longer proper to soothe youngsters before bed.

A. surprise B. astonish C. stress D. fort F Before I studied psychology（心理學） , I used to think that people would laugh when funny things occurred． While I was right about that, I discovered there are lots of other psychological factors that make people laugh other than the funny part of a joke． When someone laughs at a joke, there will usually be more than one reason that makes him laugh—and the more reasons there are, the more powerful the joke will be． I was attending a standup edy show in Egypt, and when the man started to make fun of pedestrians （行人） crossing streets, everyone laughed their hearts out． The main reason those people strongly laughed was that almost all of them felt angry towards pedestrians who crossed streets carelessly． The joke wasn’t only funny, it also made the audience feel that they were right about being angry at those pedestrians． That is, people were laughing both because of the funny joke and because of the happiness experienced as a result of the psychological support they got． The better a joke makes a person feel, and the more it includes other psychological factors, the more the person will like it． For example, if you envy（嫉妒） one of your friends, and someone tells a joke that is funny and, at the same time, makes your friend seem stupid, then you will probably laugh at it louder than if you weren’t jealous(忌妒的 ) of him． In short, we don’t laugh only when we hear something funny。 A You probably know who Marie Curie was, but you may not have heard of Rachel Carson.
