“But it also has some bad sides (方面). There are no cinemas or big shopping centers in the village. I have to go to Cambridge to see a movie or go shopping. So I usually watch TV or do exercise in the evening.

Half an hour later, the plane didn’t take off. Another hour later, we were told that there was something wrong (有毛病的) with the plane and that we would all have to get on another plane.
So I had to change my flight. It was at 2:30 pm. I spent an hour and a half standing in line to check in again. However, when it was my turn, they told me that there was no seat left. They asked me to go to the gate and just wait for my name to be called.
It was almost 2:20 pm when a man said, “Mr. Hartman. Final (最后的) call for Mr. Hartman.” I ran over to him and said, “I’ve been waiting here for over twenty minutes for you to call me.” He said, “We have called you several times (几次).”

Many people enjoy watching movies in a cinema. They think the cinema has a better atmosphere (气氛) to enjoy the movie. However, I think people are happier and freer when watching movies at home.
Watching movies at home is more comfortable. To watch movies in a cinema, you have to buy the ticket before you go there for a better seat. However, there is no need for people at home to worry about the ticket. They can enjoy movies at any time they like with the most comfortable seat. What’s more, watching movies at home wouldn’t have to face any traffic (交通) problem.
It is free to watch movies at home. In the cinema, we cannot go outside and do something else because the movie won’t wait for us. Sometimes, if we miss (错过) part of the movie, we cannot follow the story. At home, we can pause (暂停) at any time and go back to watch the part.
All in all, a cinema is a good place to watch movies, but it isn’t the best place to enjoy the movies. I think watching movies at home is better.
( )41.How does the writer like watching movies at home
A. Uncomfortable. B. Enjoyable. C. Boring. D. Funny.
( )42.What are the reasons that the writer likes watching movies at home

A. He doesn’t mind it. B. He can’t stand it.
C. He doesn’t like it. D. He loves it.

A. It is Better to Watch Movies than TV Shows.
B. Better to Watch a Movie in a Cinema or at Home
C. Let’s Watch Movies in a Cinema. D. Let’s Not Watch Movies at Home.
