三、阅读理解(共10小题;每小题2分,满分20分)
A
The story of Hua Mulan is well-known in China. Mulan, a brave young girl, takes her father's place in the army and fights for her country. Disney turned this story into a cartoon in 1998. And now, they are planning to make it a real action movie. It was reported that in the online script (剧本), the movie would not be mainly about Mulan saving her family, but about how a white European man saves Mulan and wins her heart. Then, lots of people made an online topic called Make Mulan Right.
A user named Krystal Lin said that the story of Mulan wasn't a love story about a girl who needed to be saved, but a story about her saving her father, about family and honor(荣誉).
Others said that it would whitewash Asian culture. The word "whitewash" means Western culture takes the place of other cultures. They give other examples, like the American actress Scarlett Johansson playing the Japanese character Motoko Kusanagi in Ghost in the Shell(《攻壳机动队》).
Facing these words, a man from Disney later told Vanity Fair magazine that the online script was only an initial version (初始版本) and that Mulan would be the main character in the story.
"Although Disney needs to think about American tastes, it has to make sure that the movie isn't 'whitewashed'," a critic (评论家) told China Daily.

Disney movies were very popular around the world. You may still remember the characters and stories of Disney movies after many years and think you know Disney movies really well. But there's one thing about Disney movies you may never know.
From Disney's earliest cartoon films, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, to more recent (最近的) ones like Frozen, many Disney movies lack moms. In Disney movies, Mom is killed like Bambi's mom or simply never appears like in The Little Mermaid. Disney movie fans may wonder the reason for this strange fact.
Many people think that the lack of mothers in Disney movies has something to do with the death of Walt Disney's mother in the early 1940s. Many people think that Walt put sadness over his mother's death into his films. However, many of his movies before his mom's death also lack moms. Hahn said the lack of mothers was a way to bring out the themes (主题) like growing up in the short movie time. Many movies were made long after Walt's death, like Beauty and the Beast. In these films, main characters lose or leave their parents and they have to grow up and become strong.
We may never know if and how Walt's mother's death makes a difference (影响) to the lack of mothers in Disney films, but it seems like ifs a common fact.
1.Which of the following is NOT a Disney movie
A. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. B. Frozen.
C. The Little Mermaid. D. Your Name.
2.The underlined word "lack" means "_____" in English.
A. to think…important B. to make…beautiful
C. to have no… D. to dislike
3.What do Hahn's words in the third paragraph tell us
A. Main characters must grow up in a short time in Disney movies.
B. Lacking of moms is a way to show the main idea of Disney movies.
C. The theme of Disney movies is growing up without parents.
D. Successful Disney movies should be lack of moms.
4.What can we know from the passage
A. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs came out later than Frozen.
B. Walt Disney's mother died about 70 years ago.
C. Walt Disney started to make films after his mother's death.
D. Beauty and the Beast came out after Walt's death.
5.The purpose of this passage is to _____.
A. describe some great Disney movies to us
B. show how Walt Disney made Disney movies
C. let us know why Disney movies are popular
