In ancient China, The governor announced a reward for the
artist who would draw a masterpiece of art. The governor would
place it at the door of his palace for a whole year. If no one could
find a fault with it, the artist would be rewarded. But if any defect
was discovered, the work would be returned and no reward would
be given. One day a man brought a painting of an ear of corn and a
bird sitting on it. A thousand people saw it and thought it was
perfect. On the last day of the year, an old man came and asked,
'How can a bird sit on an ear of corn without making it bend?' The
observation was right and the artist wasn't rewarded. To receive
such a prize, an artist had to be careful with every detail of his
work.

Read the following passage, then answer the questions:
Children’s stories are popular among the young and the old
because in them you can almost differentiate between the good
and the bad people. A character like Snow White is good, where as
her stepmother is evil. Also in children’s stories, justice always
wins and evil loses .In another story, 'The wicked witch' is
defeated and the beautiful little girl goes home safely. That’s why
children find any other kind of stories unbelievable. They simply
cannot understand how evil can go unpunished or good
unrewarded. As they grow up, they realise that life is not that
simple. People have both good and bad qualities, and justice does
not always win. If a story does not take this into account, we may
think of it as boring or childish. To make a reader a little sad is
much better than to deceive him or her.

What do children realise about life when they grow up?
