Answer the following questions according to the text.
In an interview yesterday Mr. Wilson was questioned about the harmful effects of horror movies on teenagers. He argued that such effects were often exaggerated and claimed that other types of films were far more dangerous for young people. When asked to prove this, he pointed out that horror films were often set in unreal situations and were clearly not to be taken seriously. In contrast, he claimed that films showing violent crime were often set in everyday life, and were therefore more damaging.
In Mr. Wilson’s opinion, horror films _____.
|
are less damaging to young people that films of violent crime
|
are more popular among the elderly than among the young.
|
should be banned altogether.
|
cost more than other kinds of films.
