A child who has once been pleased 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 texts. It is always much better to tall a story than read it out of a book, and, if a parent can produce what, in the actual circumstrances 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 impulses. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment flint children who have read fairy stories were more often guilty of cruelty than those who had not. Aggressive, destructive, sadistic impulses every child has and, on the whole, their symbolic verbal discharge seems to be rather a safety valve than an incitement to overt action. As to fears, there are, I think, well-authenticated cases of children being dangerously terrified by some fairy story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear in to 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 indulging 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 case were sound, the world should be full of madmen attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a broomstick or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their enchanted girlfriend.
No fairy story ever claimed to be a description of the external world and no sane child has ever believed that it was.
Fairy stories are a means by which children’s impulses may be ______.
选项
A、beneficially channeled
B、given a destructive tendency
C、held back until maturity
D、effectively suppressed

A

综观全文,尤其是从第二段第三句“Aggressive,destructive,sadistic impulses every child has and, on the whole,their symbolic verbal discharge seems to be rather valve than an incitement to over action“和第二段最后一句“Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear in to the pleasure of a fear faced and mastered”,就可以推知童话故事可以作为孩子心理冲动的有益引导手段,故选[A]。而[B],[C]和[D]原文未提及。
