To Be A Cartoon Fan


I’ve spent a happy time In my childhood because of cartoons. I obsessed with cartons specially in my summer or winter holidays. In the  1990s in China, there were programs broadcasting on almost every TV stations from 5:30 p.m to 6:30 p.m .These programs just like Big Windmill, Jigsaw Puzzle, Comic World and so on, and they are for children or pupils . Children could see cartons basically during this time.(Chinese TV stations have a regular schedule. For example, all the stations should broadcast CCTV news form7:00p.m to 7:30p.m. If it is the first time for you to come to China, never ask the waiter to call an engineer to repair your TV set during this time, they won’t come to help you. The reason is not they love the CCTV news very much, it is because they have experienced a lot of these embarrassed things during 7:00p.m to 7:30p.m: a foreigner came to China and he saw all the TV stations on the television were broadcasting one program, he thought the television must need repair.) So, this one hour is very precious for me. Not only the cartoons are really funny and interesting, but also it likes a friend of mine. In the 1980s, family planning reminds a basic state of China because of the exponential population. Many families have only one child. The children who were born in the 1980s always felt lonely in their families and they really need to acquire a good friend, and then the cartoons appeared. Comparing with other programs, cartoon is easier for children to understand and the characters in cartoon are comic and colorful.  
In my childhood, the cartoons I have seen could be divided into three types depending on their motherlands. The first one is Chinese cartoons. Chinese cartoons are not so funny but they could be simple and nature, and they always tell short and warm stories. The classic Chinese cartoons are Little Tadpoles Find Mother, Hair Brothers, Black Cat Sir, Calabash Brothers and so on. The second type is western cartoons, they come from Europe or America. Western cartoons are really funny and interesting, I like to see this kind of cartoons because I can get more pleasure. I can still remember the names of these cartoons, Tom And Jerry, Transformers, Barbapapa, Mickey Mouse, He-Man.The third type is Japanese cartoons. Japanese cartoons are very excellent, one can find any kinds of cartoons from them. As the age growing, we would think the Chinese cartoons are too simple for us, and we want change a funny cartoon that is different from western cartoon, we can always choose a Japanese cartoon. We could see Doraemon or Sakura Momoko when we were little children; we could select Saint Seiya or Naruto when we were in teenagers; and when we aren’t children or pupils any more, we also can see some cartoons, just like the cartoon movies directed by Hayao Miyazaki. In my opinion, cartoons are not meaning naive, we can harvest many things from cartoons. For example, I love cartoon very much. When I was a pupil, I must do my best in my lessons and try my best to get a good behavior so that my parents would let me see cartoon during the cartoon time, and I keep the habits of try to do my best from then on. Therefore, there are no bad guys among the cartoon fans.

  3. Actually, I enjoyed some of the same cartoons when I was a kid, especially Transformers, He-Man and Tom and Jerry. There are also some 'adult' cartoon shows like Family Guy that are hilarious.

    Corrections:
    I was obsessed with cartoons, especially on my summer or winter holidays.

    The second type is western cartoons, which come from Europe or America.
