Answer
A
The tales are from the past and were collected through interviews.
B
Some of the tales discuss wars and other conflicts of the time.
C
Many of the stories tell about the horrifying and brutal treatment of children.
D
The stories and the custom of storytelling are a timeless pastime for children.
E
The tales often reveal the harsh living conditions of the 19th century.

Explanation

The tales’ references to wars and conflicts, horrifying treatment of children, and harsh 19th-century living conditions suggest they reflect serious realities rather than being created just for children. Thus, the evidence is that some tales discuss wars and other conflicts, many describe brutal treatment of children, and the tales reveal harsh living conditions. Being collected through interviews does not show they were not meant for children, and calling storytelling a timeless pastime for children points the other way.
