Early last year, two young brothers in Jiangsu Province badly burned while playing. The“game”they were playing was they had watched in the cartoon Pleasant Goat and the Big Big Wolf （《喜羊羊和灰太狼》）.The brothers were two little goats while their friend was playing a bad wolf . Their friend tied them a tree and set fire to the grass around them.
The sad story is an example of how many children follow the violence（暴力） they see on television, especially cartoons. It is that violent cartoons can make children more aggressive（具有攻击性的）.
