An image showing a “cartoon hierarchy” has ignited public discussion in China for its suggestion that Chinese children from wealthier families or with better educational opportunities prefer to watch English-language cartoons and will look down on those who watch Chinese ones.
一張顯示“動畫片等級”的圖片激起了中國民眾的討論贴唇，該圖片暗示，更為富裕家庭或者是有著更好教育機會的中國孩子喜歡更看英語動畫片飞袋，他們鄙視那些看國產動畫片的中國孩子戳气。
The picture shows the latest English-language cartoons with no Chinese subtitles such as “Adventure Time with Finn and Jake,” “Bob’s Burgers,” and “Bernard” at the top of the pyramid. The second tier includes Disney television series, “SpongeBob SquarePants,” and “Thomas the Train,” and other cartoons that have already been introduced into China. Domestic cartoons including “Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf,” “Boonie Bears,” and “GG Bond” are at the bottom of the pyramid.
該圖片顯示，最新的巧鸭、且無漢語字幕的英語動畫片瓶您，例如《探險活寶》、《開心漢堡店》纲仍、和《倒霉熊》處于金字塔的最上方呀袱。第二等級包括迪士尼電視劇、《海綿寶寶》巷折、《托馬斯小火車》压鉴、以及其它早已被引入中國的其它動畫片。金字塔底部是包括《喜羊羊與灰太狼》锻拘、《熊出沒》油吭、和《豬豬俠》在內的國產動畫片。
“I usually let my kid watch the English-language-version of Peppa Pig.” A parent told Chinanews.com. “I don’t look down on domestic cartoons. It’s just that English-language cartoons are entertaining as well as helpful for learning English, and Disney sometimes includes math exercises. Domestic cartoons are not nearly as educational.”

In spite of this, some domestic cartoons are striving to keep pace with the times.
