三、阅读理解

Spider-man is one of the most famous American superheroes. His real name is Peter Parker, a shy high school boy. One day, a radioactive(放射性的)spider bit him. He then developed superpowers like super strength, speed and the ability to cling to(紧粘)walls.
But few works explore what happens to Peter Parker after he grows up. That’s unfortunate(可惜的 )because this period is where many of the best stories lie. Thankfully, Insomniac Games saw the potential(潜力)in an older superhero and created the best “Spider-Man” game ever.
The game is about Peter Parker’s adventures(冒险)in his 20s. He’s a genius(天才)scientist who is trying to win back his ex-girlfriend.
There are different side missions(支线任务). By finishing them successfully, players get credits(分数)that can be used to buy things for Spider Man, including new suits and gear(装备). New suits come with better abilities.
Throughout the game, his relationship with his ex-girlfriend Mary Jane takes Spider-man to new places. Mary Jane gets herself in trouble. The game gives her many ways to overcome enemies. Mary Jane and Spider-man partner up to save hostages(人质).
In the game’s missions, the fighting feels like that it’s straight out of the pages of a Spider-Man comic book(漫画书). It makes players feel just like Spider Man. The video game gives an experience that’s one of the best Spider-Man stories ever told.
( )1.What do we know about the game
A. Peter Parker is still a schoolboy in it.
B. It’s about what happens after Peter grows old.
C. Insomniac Games created the best “Spider-Man” game.

From a large elephant to a small mouse, animals live happily together in Disney's new movie Zootopia. Judy Hopps. The main character, becomes the first rabbit police officer in the city. While solving a mystery, she meets the smart fox, Nick, who helps her with her case(案件), and some others animals like the lion mayor(市长) and a mouse called Flash. Here is something more about the movie.
There are 64 kinds of animals in the movie. All of them look like real ones except Judy, the first rabbit police officer. Its appearance is a bit different from real rabbits. Real rabbits actually have split lips(嘴唇), but the film makers decided to make Judy's lip all together to look nice.
Film makers learned that not all fur(皮毛)of animals is the same. In the movie, some of polar bears' fur is clear. It appears white because the light reflects off it. Part of fox fur is dark at the root, getting lighter till its red top. They did so to make sure that the animals in Zootopia were believable.
Moreover, a film maker, Nathan Warner with his partners also took a trip to Africa for researching animals. There they had a close watching of different animals. According to their discovery, these artists added leaves to animals coats like the big sheep. They also make animals tears run from the inside corners of eyes down to the outside mouths.
