Berikut ini adalah pertanyaan dari carengoh pada mata pelajaran B. inggris untuk jenjang Sekolah Menengah Pertama
The Brothers GrimmJacob and Wilhelm Grimm were two young men from Germany who loved a good story. As university students, they became interested in folktales--traditional stories that people memorized and told again and again. They began to collect traditional folktales from storytellers all over Germany. Many were similar to stories told in France, Italy, Japan, and other countries. Between 1812 and 1814, the brothers published two books in German. These included stories like "Hansel and Gretel" and "Little Red Riding Hood." The collections became known in English as Grimm's Fairy Tales.
Darkness and MagicThe Grimm brothers' tales reflected traditional life and beliefs. For example, forests are common in Germany, and this image often appears in the Grimms' stories. In the past, many people believed forests were dangerous places. In the Grimms' stories, a forest is the home of evil witches, talking animals, and other magical beings.
Children's stories?Although most people today think of these stories as fairy tales for children, the brothers first wrote them primarily for adults. Many of their early tales were dark and a little scary. Later, the brothers changed the text of some of the original stories. They "softened" many of the tales and added drawings. This made them more appropriate for children. Like the early tales, though, each story still has a moral: work hard, be good, and listen to your parents.
Which of these is true about the Grimm stories? *
The early stories had a lot of drawings.
The early stories were written for children.
The later stories had morals, like the early ones.
The later stories reflected German life, but the early ones didn't.
Which of these is true about the Grimm brothers? *
They invented the fairy tales in their books.
They wrote their books in different languages.
They became interested in folktales as students.
They travelled to many countries to collect stories.
What is the main purpose of the reading? *
to explain why storytelling is important in Germany.
to give information about the Grimm brothers and their stories.
to compare the Grimm's stories to modern children's stories.
to examine two of the Grimm's fairy tales.
