Several years ago,I went to see an advanced cartoon 3D movie Frankenweenie at the Walt Disney Studios,in California.A few days later,our chief editor gave me a new task and then I sat down for interviews with the film’s director,Tim Burton,and some of the actors.
As for the movie,I had a lot to talk about as an audience.It was one of the most alluring movies I’d ever seen.Even though it was made in black and white,it was so lively that my mind seemed to fill in color in every scene(场景).Burton talked to me about why he chose to use black and white and 3D technology for Frankenweenie.“I like the depth and shadows(阴影) that you can get with black and white,” he said.“And I just thought the 3D technology would be really fun to see.”
He’s right.The whole movie is a lot of fun.A school student Victor Frankenstein lives in a small town,whose dog Sparky is hit by a car one day.Victor is very sad and lonely until he brings the dog back to life inspired by an experiment of his science teacher about the power of electricity.Victor’s classmates learn what happens and also try to bring their pets back from the dead.These creatures end up with causing widespread damage throughout the town.Finally,the dog gives up its own life to save Victor.
My favorite part is the moment when Victor brings Sparky back to life,because I have a very strong love for animals.This scene isn’t the funniest,but it is really heart-warming to me.
I’d like to recommend this movie to kids because of the unusual and lively characters.And it does attract those who are interested in cartoon techniques to see this film.The effects will blow your mind out of the water.Be sure to check out this exciting movie in theaters.

As a successful American businessman and inspiring speaker,Chris Gardner used to struggle with homelessness while raising a son.His autobiography(自传),ThePursuit(追寻) ofHappyness,was a bestseller that has been translated into over 40 languages.This book was also made into a movie of the same name in 2006,which has won many awards.
In this movie Chris Gardner,a struggling salesman,is running short of money but is full of ambition(雄心).The film set in San Francisco,Gardner is stuck in a dead-end job.He is an intelligent,successful workman by day,and a helpless father living in a train station at night.
You will be emotionally tired as you see this hard-working,loving father become more and more hopeless.To make matters worse,he is left to raise his five-year-old son alone after Christopher’s mother leaves them to live in New York.All he wants to do is protect his son,but being a single father is difficult,and being broke only makes it worse.The lines are excellent;but even without dialogue,the actor’s expressions in the movie capture the panic of a father,who is afraid of failing and of losing his son.
Throughout the movie,you are hoping Gardner will succeed,and his positive attitude in the face of such difficulties is truly inspiring.Even though the movie is based on a true story,some critics(评论员) have said that ThePursuitofHappyness does not reflect reality because Gardner never seems to tire or lose hope in his dream to be successful even when he is homeless.Despite this criticism,the ending leaves you with a warm feeling and the actor does an excellent job of making us believe that anything is possible if you put your mind to it.
5.What do we know about Chris Gardner from the first paragraph
A.He is a full-time writer.
B.He acted in the adapted movie.
C.He is an influential figure.

In your life,sometimes you may be asked to speak in front of a large group of people.Although it sounds a little scary,even those with stage fright can speak successfully to the group with adequate preparation.
Practice your speech before the big day. 1 If possible,practice the speech in front of a friend or family member to get used to saying it to real people.If you feel you must have note cards,limit the amount to about three cards.This will force you to keep your speech brief and help you keep your eyes focused on your audience.
Remember why you’ve been invited to speak.If you’re battling fear over speaking to a large group of people,keep your mind on the fact that you were selected for this important role.The speech organizers must have seen something valuable in you or your expertise. 2
Remember that fear of public speaking is very common. 3 Most of the people in the audience would be feeling the same fear and stress that you do in your position.Knowing this may make you feel better.
4 What you say should be tailored(专门的) to why you’re there and who you’re speaking to in order to avoid sounding general.If speaking to a charity group,mention the good work certain specific individuals have done for the cause.If speaking at a business conference,briefly state why you want to help these people.
Keep eye contact with the crowd. 5 Pick one person in each section and look at him while you’re speaking.After each important point in your speech,switch your focus to another section.When you focus only on one person at a time,the size of the crowd isn’t as frightening.
A.A good memory is really helpful.
B.Show appreciation to your audience.
C.Mention your audience in your speech.
D.The more you have it memorized,the better.
E.In fact,it’s normal to feel awkward or stressed out before a big speech.
F.Separate the crowd into three sections mentally as you get up to speak.
G.The knowledge of other people’s respect for you should reduce some of the fear.

Ⅳ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一个“缺少音乐细胞”的男孩为了满足身患绝症的妈妈的愿望而刻苦练习钢琴,最终演出成功的感人故事。
1.C 我更喜欢学生在较早的年龄开始学习钢琴。level水平;convenience便利;age年龄;moment时刻。根据后文“IexplainedittoRobinthathewastooold”可知,作者喜欢学生在较早的年龄开始学习钢琴。
2.C 我向Robin解释说他年纪太大了,但他说听他弹钢琴一直是他母亲的梦想。task任务;plan计划;dream梦想;hobby爱好。结合句意,根据后文Robin所说的“Mymum’sgoingtohearmeplaysomeday.”以及“Itwasthefirsttimeshecouldhearmeplayonthestage.”可知,听他弹钢琴是他母亲的梦想。
3.D 虽然Robin很努力,但他似乎没有基本的音乐意识。unless除非;because因为;until直到;although虽然。前半部分“Robintriedveryhard”和后半部分“hedidn’tseemtohavethebasicsenseofmusic”之间存在转折关系。
4.B 然而,他还是继续学着钢琴,而且在每节课结束时他从来没有忘记说:“我妈妈总有一天会听到我演奏。”act表现;continue继续;command需要;prove证明。根据前文可知,Robin没有基本的音乐意识,根据“However”的转折语义可知,他仍在继续坚持学习。
5.B 但这似乎是不可能的,我对他的缓慢进展感到失望。encouraged受鼓励的;disappointed失望的;touched受感触的;guided被指导的。根据前文“Butitseemedimpossible”以及后文“hisslowprogress”可知,作者很失望。
6.A 有一天,他告诉我,他妈妈病了,他不能再来上我的课了。tell告诉;show出示;convince使确信;promise承诺。根据后文“hismotherwassickandhecouldn’tcometomyclassanylonger”可知,Robin是陈述一般事实,所以指“告诉老师”。
7.B 几个月后,当我正在为我的学生准备一个音乐节目时,Robin来到我家,说他要报名参加这个节目。lookforwardto盼望;signupfor报名;focuson专注;learnfrom向……学习。根据前文“Iwaspreparingmystudentsforamusicshow”可知,作者为学生准备音乐节目,所以Robin前来报名参加。后文“MymumhadcancerandjustpassedawaythedayIwenttoyour toaskforyourpermissiontotakepartintheshow.”可知,他要报名参加这个节目。
8.C 我不知道是什么让我允许他这么做的。warn警告;persuade说服;allow允许;force强迫。根据后文“Maybeitwasthe inhiseyesormaybeitwassomethinginsideofmesayingthatitwouldbeallright.”可知,作者答应了Robin的要求,所以指“允许”他报名。
9.A 也许是他眼中的决心,也许是我内心的某种力量在告诉我一切都会好的。determination决心;happiness幸福;reflections反思;anger愤怒。虽然作者并不看好Robin,可是却允许他报名了。其中原因之一,应该是Robin的坚决态度。
10.D 当Robin宣布他选择了莫扎特最困难的曲子之一时,我更惊讶了。excited激动的;satisfied满意的;relieved放心的;surprised吃惊的。根据后文“hehadchosenoneofthemostdifficultpiecesofMozart”可知,作者没有想到他竟然选择了最难的曲子,所以感到惊讶。
11.A 然而,在节目中,他的手指在琴键上优雅地舞动着。gracefully优雅地;awkwardly笨拙地;slowly缓慢地;quickly迅速地。根据后文“Heplayedsowell”可知,Robin弹得很好,所以这里描述他的手指“优雅地”的在琴键上舞动。

13.D 我激动地跑上舞台向他祝贺。follow跟随;drive驾驶;wake醒来;run跑。根据前文“Heplayedsowellthateveryone excitedlywhenhewasleavingthestage.”可知,Robin弹得很好,所以作者激动地跑上舞台向他祝贺。

15.A 我想让它与众不同。special专门的,特殊的;important重要的;similar类似的;popular流行的。根据前文Robin所说“Itwasthefirsttimeshecouldhearmeplayonthestage.”可知,因为是去世的妈妈第一次听Robin在舞台上演奏,所以Robin想让演奏与众不同。
Ⅴ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国的传统乐器曾侯乙编钟的相关内容。
1.a 考查冠词。句意:曾侯乙编钟是中国古代一种独特的乐器。根据句意可知,此处表示“中国古代一种独特的乐器”,为泛指,所以用不定冠词,且unique是以辅音音素开头,故填a。
2.to admire 考查非谓语动词。句意:无论远近,来到湖北博物馆的人都迫不及待地要亲自来欣赏它。can’twaittodosth.迫不及待做某事。故填toadmire。
3.musical 考查词性转换。句意:这个中国古老的乐器是由65个不同大小的铜铃组成,铜铃分三层挂着,分为8组。修饰名词instrument用形容词,故填musical。
4.which 考查定语从句。句意:这个中国古老的乐器是由65个不同大小的铜铃组成,铜铃分三层挂着,分为8组。分析可知,空处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词65bronzebells,且关系词在从句中作主语,故填which。
5.are decorated 考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:所有的钟都装饰着一些精致的雕刻。分析可知,主语Allofthebells和decorate之间是被动关系,且描述的是一般情况,所以用一般现在时的被动语态,故填aredecorated。
6.standing 考查非谓语动词。句意:当你面对着编钟时,你会发现它们静静地站在那里,像一排排的武士,但又像古代的妇女一样优雅。分析可知,此处为“find+宾语+宾语补足语”结构,stand和其逻辑主语them之间是主动关系,所以用动词-ing形式作宾语补足语。故填standing。
7.festivals 考查名词的数。句意:在古代,这种乐器通常是在重要的节日或庆典、祭祀、宴会或丰收时演奏的。分析可知,festival为可数名词,结合下文的ceremonies可知应用其复数形式。
8.particularly 考查词性转换。句意:它非常流行,特别是在战国时期。分析可知,设空处修饰时间状语duringtheWarringStatesPeriod,所以用副词形式。故填particularly。
9.is 考查动词的时态和主谓一致。句意:编钟演奏的《高山流水》令人惊叹。分析可知,句子主语为Themusic,设空处为谓语动词,句子表达的是一般情况,所以用一般现在时,故填is。
10.of 考查名词所有格。句意:它高度代表了中国人民的智慧。分析可知,此处表示所属关系,应该用of所有格。

Don’tLookUp

Minutes after the last movie ended yesterday at the Plaza Theater,employees were busy sweeping up popcorns and gathering coke cups.It was a scene that had been repeated many times in the theater’s 75-year history.This time,however,the cleanup was a little different.As one group of workers carried out the rubbish,another group began removing seats and other theater equipment in preparation for the building’s end.
The film classic TheLastPictureShow was the last movie shown in the old theater.Though the movie is 30 years old,most of the 250 seats were filled with teary-eyed audience wanting to say good-bye to the old building.Theater owner Ed Bradford said he chose the movie because it seemed proper.The movie is set in a small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down.
Bradford said that large modern theaters in the city made it impossible for the Plaza to compete.He added that the theater’s location(位置) was also a reason.“This used to be the center of town,” he said.“Now the area is mostly office buildings and warehouses.”
Last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested in turning the old theater into a museum and public meeting place.However,these plans were given up because of financial problems.Bradford sold the building and land to a local development firm,which plans to build a shopping complex on the land where the theater is located.

A study published in the journal FrontiersinPsychology took a closer look at music in sports,specifically how listening to music could affect one’s overall performance.
Researchers asked 150 volunteers to throw a ball into a basket.For the first stage of the study,participants threw the ball from a fixed point.They threw the ball while listening to music of their choice,while not listening to music,or while listening to music that the researchers selected.For the second state they were able to choose where to stand when throwing the ball and performed the same activity with the various music choices.
The study found that listening to music,whether it was music of the volunteer’s choice or a song chosen for them,did not make the participants more or less likely to get the ball in the basket.It had no effect.What it did do was increase self-esteem and make the study participants more likely to take risks,especially for males who were allowed to choose their own music.
The results suggest that music may pump you up.And it may even help you work out harder and longer than you would without it.But no matter what song you listen to,it’s not going to help you get that ball into the basket.
Another study had a detailed look at how music pace might affect exercise.Researchers found that listening to high-pace music makes people feel like they’re working less while also benefiting their bodies more.
Listening to high-pace music while exercising resulted in the highest heart rate compared with not listening to music.This means that the exercise seemed like less effort,but it was more beneficial in terms of enhancing physical fitness.
The study found that the beneficial effects of high-pace music were greatest for people who were walking or running and were felt the least for those who were doing high-intensity exercises such as weightlifting.
8.What were volunteers allowed to do while shooting in the second stage test
A.Choose position and music.
B.Shoot from a fixed point.
C.Shoot with fixed music.
D.Shoot with no music.
9.Which is more encouraging in throwing a ball test
A.Music given by experts.
B.Music males chose.
C.Peaceful music.
D.Loud music.
10.Which sentence matches the results of high-pace music in this study
A.It has no effect on sports.
B.It improves your athletic skills.
C.It helps easily achieve better workout.
D.High-pace music is beneficial for all forms of exercise.
11.What does the underlined word “enhancing” in paragraph 6 probably mean

Ⅴ.MyFavouriteFilm
My favourite film is ALittleRedFlower directed by Han Yan,starring Yi Yangqianxi and Liu Haocun.
The film tells a warm and realistic story about two patients with cancer—Wei Yihang and Ma Xiaoyuan.Ma is optimistic and eventually dies.However,with her encouragement,Wei gradually forgets the fact that he is a cancer patient and completes his dream.
Not only does it have famous stars,but its music is especially amazing.Moreover,it is an educational film,which teaches me to be enthusiastic and cherish life.
