One example:Nancy was a beautiful girl but she mixed with some bad people but she was very good. Finally, Elaine liked Ah Keung and she had a big supermarket. One day, the bad people went to the supermarket and stole the goods and they always made trouble in the supermarket, but Ah Keung was very brave and beat them up. At last, the bad people lost and Ah Keung won. Though Antia Mui died, her excellent performance makes us remember her forever. Jackie Chan is always brilliant.I felt this film is very exciting but it had many violent actions. In this film, I also found Jackie Chan a good kung fu hero and he is very handsome but his hair is very long.

The film starts out as a normal day in a typical American high school. Friends 1 in the dining room and boys play football. But there’s a big surprise when the movie 2 with two students going crazy in the 3 ---- shooting and killing people.
This is “ Elephant”, 4 in just 20 days; it stars real high school kids. American 5 Gus Van Sant had no ready made lines(台词). The student actors made up their own 6 , with Van Sant asking them to base their characters on their own 7.
8 it may not sound very high quality, the 9 won the Palme d’Or (金棕榈奖) for the Best Film and the award for Best Director at the Cannes film festival in 10 on May 25. The film is based on the 11 at a high school in the US, where two boys killed 13 people and then themselves in 1999. The 12 of the movie refers to the old expression about a problem that’s as hard to ignore(忽略) as an elephant in the house.
The film takes a close look at a few hours in the lives of the victims (受害人者) and the killers. It shows how high school is a 13 experience for everyone---- fun and friendly, or hard and lonely. In many ways, the two 14 who carry out the shooting, act like ordinary kids. They joke around 2with one boy’s mother as 15 serves them cakes and play the piano.
But, there are hints (提示) of the 16 they feel inside. One of the boys is bullied(欺负)at school. The other plays 17 video games. But Van Sant isn’t 18 their killing on either bullying or violent games. In fact, the film doesn’t offer any reason for why school violence happens.

BRITISH writer J. K. Rowling hinted (暗示) last Thursday that she may not stop seven books about the adventures of Harry Potter.
It was a live Web chat to mark World Book Day. And, Rowling ----- who has always insisted she would write only seven Potter books---- was asked by a fan if she intended to write books about Harry after he leaves Hogwarts, the academy for wizards (巫师学院)
“ Probably not. But I’ll never say never. That’s because every time I do immediately break the vow. (誓言).’’ she replied.
Rowling, whose wealth was recently estimated (估计) at US $1 billion, is writing the sixth Potter book.
In the Web chat, she was flooded with 16,000 questions from devoted readers of her wizard sagas ( 英雄传奇)
The release in June last year of the fifth book was billed as the world’s biggest book launch.
Asked what would happen if fiction( 幻想) became fact. Rowling said, “ I think I’d most like to spend a day with Harry. I’d take him out for a meal and apologize for everything I put him through.”
Then she jokingly warned that even tougher times faced Potter, “ In Book Six, the wizarding world is really at war again. And he has to make himself useful.”
“ If I was Harry Potter, I would hide because I know what is coming”. she said.
1.From the passage we can know that J.K.Rowling____________.
has finished writing all the books Harry Potter.
is considering stopping writing more than Harry Potter.
is still writing books about Harry Potter
has no idea about whether to go on writing or not.
2.Where does J.K. Rowling give the talk?

3.. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that__________ in the book to come out.

4. From what J.K.Rowling says we can conclude that _____________.

she has really made a mistake in her writing.
B.
Girly, pretty, with long dark hair, 18-year-old Katie Leung from Scotland is sure to arouse much excitement among Harry Potter fans this month.
The fourth film adaptation (改编) of the wildly popular J.K.Rowling books, Harry Potter and the Goblet of fire(《哈利·波特与火焰杯》) is released on November 18, Katis is about to burst onto the big screen as the girl Cho Chang who wins Harry Potter’s heart.
Katie’s scenes in the film are set around the Hogwarts Yule Ball (圣诞舞会). Harry plucks up courage (鼓足勇气) to ask Cho to the dance. But Cho has a boyfriend and she must turn Harry down. “ I think she’s a really loyal person,” Katie says of her character, “ The scenes where Harry is gazing at (注视) Cho are fun. Cho sees Harry looking and gives him a look back. He then thinks he’s got a chance, but he hasn’t.”
The story of Katie becoming Cho also has fairytale qualities. She went to the initial audition(初试) in London after her dad saw an advertisement on a Chinese TV channel. The actress had to be 16, which Katie was at the time, and of Eastern appearance. When the director asked, “ Who’s from Scotland?” Katie was the only who put her hand up.
Although Katie had no previous(先前的) acting experience, not even in a school play, she beat 5,000 hopefuls and won the role.
“ I felt pretty confident (自信的)but that was only because I was treating the audition as a bit of fun. I’m not the kind of girl who’s always dreamed of being an actress,” Katie said.
“ I’m the shy type, really. At school I could go without talking to anyone fir days and days, I was so shy that it was unbelievable and it never occurred to me that I could get into this business.
Katie isn’t calling herself an actress just yet, although she won praise from Daniel Radcliffe (who plays Harry) for her performance, who described her as a “natural”
Cho and Harry’s relationship develop in later books, but Katie doesn’t know if she’ll be in the next film.
“ I’d like to do more acting, but if Goblet of fire turns out to be my only film then I think it would be pretty cool to be known about the girl, Katie Leung?
5. From the text, what can we know about the girl, Katie Leung?
Before she played the role, everybody thought that she would be an actress because of her beauty.
She plays as Harry Potter’s first crush （迷恋的人）
She has no confidence when she was in the initial audition
She will play another girl in the next Goblet of fire
6. Why does the director choose Katie Leung as Cho Chang, who wins Harry Potter’s heart?
A. Because she plays very well in the initial audition
B. Because she was a pretty gir4l with long hair, and the most important was that she was 18 years old.
C. Because she was treating audition seriously.
D. Because she is a really loyal person.
7. Which of the following is right?
When she was a little girl , she dreamed of becoming a teacher.
In the play she played so well that she was praised by Daniel Radcliffe.
The writer thinks that the play will be well received by the people all over the world.
Harry Potter and the Goblet of fire is made on November 18.
8.This text mainly tells us about _________.
Harry Potter and the Goblet of fire
Harry’s first lover---- a shy girl.
A successful initial audition
An unexpected film.
C.
WATCHING films is a good way to spend those long ht summer evenings ahead. The supercool hacker (黑客)， Neo, is ready to lead you into a fight with the computers in “ Matrix Reloaded” (《黑客帝国2： 重装上阵》) , coming to China on July 18. And in “Finding Nemo”(《海底总动员》)， you can enjoy the coolness of life under the sea on August 2.
Here is a list of the hottest films to hit China’s screens in July and August.
1.“ The Core”(《地心抢险记》)：a disaster film. Brave heroes journey to the center of the earth to save it after the planet suddenly stops spinning(旋转).

As prices and building costs keep rising ,the ‘do-it-yourself’ (DIY)trend（趋势）in the U.S. continues to grow.
‘We needed furniture（家具）for our living room,’ says John Ross, ‘and we just didn’t have enough money to buy it. So we decided to try making a few tables and chairs.’ John got married six months ago ,and like many young people these days, they are struggling to make a home at a time when the cost of living is very high. The Rosses took a 2-week course for $ 280 at a night school. Now they build all their furniture and make repairs around the house.
Jim Hatfield has three boys and his wife died .He has a full-time job at home as well as in a shoe making factory. Last month, he received a car repair bill for $ 420. ‘ I was deeply upset about it . Now I’ve finished a car repair course, I should be able to fix the car by myself.’
John and Jim are not unusual people. Most families in the country are doing everything they can to save money so they can fight the high cost of living. If you want to become a ‘do-it-yourselfer’, you can go to DIY classes. And for those who don’t have time to take a course, there are books that tell you how you can do things yourself.

Teaching procedures & ways教学过程与方式
Step I Lead-in
T: Boys and girls, do you like seeing films?
Ss: Yes, we like seeing films very much.
T: I’m glad to hear that. Who’d like to tell us something about films?
Sa: I’m from a village and there was no cinema before. If we wanted to see a film, we had to go to the town or invited a cameraman to show it for us in a clearing. Whatever the film was, we were excited all the night.
Sb: I prefer to see a film at home. Though there is only a little room, I can see any films I like. And I like adventure films. They make me imaginative, nervous and many other feelings.
Maybe more Ss want to express their own ideas, control the situation and come to the next step.
T: Your presentations are wonderful. Now look at these pictures, do you know the names of them?
Show the pictures on the screen.


Ss: Titanic, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Hero and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
T: You are quite right. And I know you have seen many films. So I want some of you to talk about your favorite films. Volunteer?
Sa: I like Titanic very much. It is a sad romantic film and I am moved deeply. Rose doesn’t mind that Jack is poor. They fall in love with each other on Titanic. Their love has broken the line between the poor and the rich. Though the ship sinks, their love still exists.
Sb: I like Harry Potter very much, because this film is mystical and interesting. Every time I see it, I wish I would be Harry Potter one day. Then I can help the poor and punish the bad.
T: Very good! Now, can you tell me about other films you have seen before?
Ss: Pearl Harbor, Spiderman, Not One Less, In the Heart of the Sun, Farewell My Concubine, etc.
T: Very good! Thank you. Now I want you to think about a question: How can you make a comment on a film?
Step II Pre-reading
T: Today we will learn something about a Chinese film. I think most of you have seen it. First look at the poster on the screen.
Show the poster of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon on the screen.
T: Do you know the name of the film?
Ss: Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
T: Definitely right. How much do you know about the film? Can you tell us something about the film？
Sa: Ang Lee, who has directed a number of excellent films, directs the film. I know that a well-known actor called Chow Yun-Fat plays the male character. And the two actresses are Michelle Yeoh and Zhang Ziyi.
Sb: I have seen this film. It is a masterpiece of martial arts films. And the fight scenes are wonderful.
Then ask the Ss to do Activity 2 on page 52. Let them read the film review quickly and choose the best summary of the film.
T：Good！Now turn to page 52 and read the film review quickly. Then choose the best summary. Three minutes later, I will check your choices.
Three minutes later, check their answers.
S: I think No. 2 is the best summary of the film. No. 1 and No. 3 both are parts of the film not the summary.
Step III Reading
Before reading, play the tape for the Ss. Ask them to imitate the pronunciation and intonation.
Skimming
In this step, get the Ss to comprehend the passage quickly and accurately.
T: OK, let’s discuss the structure of the passage. How many parts can it be divided into?
Ss: Three.
T: Quite right. What are they?
Sa: Part 1 includes the first two paragraphs.
T: Good. What’s the topic sentence?
Sb: Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is a masterpiece of martial arts films, and wuxia films are well received both in China and in western countries. T: Well done! Thank you. What about the second part?
Sb: Paragraphs 3 and 4 belong to the second part. It mainly tells us the story about how Li Mubai and YU Xiulian tried to get back a stolen sword and how wonderfully the main characters performed.
T: You’ve done a very good job. What’s the third part and what’s the topic sentence of this part?
Sc: The third one includes the last paragraph. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is really an excellent film.
T: You’re quite right. Now who can tell us the main idea of this passage?
Sd: The text tells of an old romantic wuxia story, which takes place in China in the nineteenth century. It deals with the bravery, loyalty and true love between the characters.
T: Thank you very much.
Scanning
In this step, the Ss will read the passage carefully to get the detailed information. They can also guess the meaning of the new words in the context and then do Activities 3 and 4. A few minutes later, check the answers with the whole class.
T: Do you have any difficulties with words and expressions in the passage?
Ss: What does “to everyone’s surprise” mean?
T: It means everyone was surprised that...
Ss: I don’t understand this sentence: As in the old wuxia stories, the characters leap through the air every now and then, with beautiful, graceful movements,...
T: You can understand this sentence in this way: The characters in the film fight against each other and jump very high, sometimes on the roof, sometimes at the top of trees. They move as quickly and neatly as the characters in the old wuxia stories.
Step IV Post-reading
In this step, the Ss will finish Activity 5 on page 53. And then ask them to discuss the writing techniques and purpose.
T: Group work. Discuss the writing techniques of the film review in groups of five. The writing techniques include the writing characteristics and the writing style. I will give you 10 minutes to do this task.
10 minutes later, check their answers.
T: What is the writing characteristic of this passage?
Sa: In our opinion, there are two characteristics: The first one is its excellent beginning of the film review. It can arouse the readers’ strong curiosity and interest. The second one is a very good structure of the film review. The setting, the plot, the main characters of the story, the fight scenes between them and the author’s opinion are all well organized.
T: Wonderful! What about the writing style of this passage?
Sb: The text is a film review. It first tells the reader the name and the type of the film. Then it describes the most important parts, including the setting, plot, main characters of the story, and the author’s opinion. The whole passage is organized well and easy to understand.
T: Right. Thank you. What is the writing purpose of this film review?
Sc: The text serves as a good example on how to write a film review. In addition, the author speaks highly of the culture of martial arts of China.
T: Quite right.
Step V Text Retelling
Ask the Ss to retell the text with about 100 words. First, do Activity 1 in WRITING on page 58 and fill in the chart according to the text. Show the text chart.

The opinion
a masterpiece of martial arts films, exciting
T: Make use of the chart above while retelling. The possible version below can be used as a reference for both retelling and dictation.
A sample version:
Surprisingly, Ang Lee, a director of many wonderful films, has made a martial arts film Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, which is proved to be a masterpiece.
The plot of the story is simple. It happens in the early 1800s in China. The main characters are Li Mubai (acted by Chow Yun-Fat) and Yu Xiulian (played by Michelle Yeoh), both of whom are masters of the martial arts. They are in love with each other. Because Xiulian’s sword is stolen, they try to get it back.
The most exciting spectacle is the fight scenes.
The action takes place on Peking rooftops, and in places as far away as the deserts of western China. The actor and actress leap through the air every now and then, with beautiful and graceful movements.
Besides, Mubai’s romantic scenes with Xiulian are very moving. Their eyes show all the love that they must not express in words.
Films like this rarely reach the cinema.
Step VI Moral Education
T: What can we learn from the passage? Volunteer?
Ss: We can learn how to evaluate what we see or experience objectively after we have read the film review. Surely, we should have a proper way to treat our life, and we should value the friendship and love among people.
T: Good for you! Thank you.

Step I Revision
Check the homework first.
T: Who can retell the film review?
S: The film Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, directed by Ang Lee, is a masterpiece of martial arts films. The story tells of nineteenth-century martial arts masters with unusual abilities. The fight scenes are the most exciting. The actor and the actress leap through the air every now and then, with beautiful and graceful movements. Films like this rarely reach the cinema.

Sample words:
the way I relax, learn a lot, interesting programms, comedy, enjoy advertisements, watch too much, affect one’s study, do harm to
Sa: I love watching TV. It’s the way I relax. I see films all the time at weekends. It’s one of the most relaxing things I can do when I am tired or bored. Besides, TV programmes can enlarge our knowledge and enrich our daily life. My parents like serious programmes like the news, but I prefer comedies. I enjoy advertisements, too. Some of them are very interesting. When I leave school, I want to work in advertising.
Sb: But every coin has two sides. Though you can get much information from TV, it can do harm not only to your health but also to your mind. TV will affect your eyesight and your study if you watch it too much. And some programmes relate to violence and criminals, even drugs, which do harm to the mind of the youth.

Ss: Yes.
Step V Extra-reading
T: Here are two supplementary reading materials on the screen for you to read.
Ang Lee
Born in 1954 in Pingtung, Taiwan, Ang Lee has become one of the greatest contemporary(现代的)filmmakers. Ang graduated from the National Taiwan College of Arts in 1975 and then went to the U.S. to receive a B.F.A. Degree in Theatre Direction at the University of Illinois, and a Master’s Degree in Film Production at New York University. At NYU, he served as an Assistant Director on Spike Lee’s student film, Joe’s Bed-Study Barbershop: We Cut Heads (1983).
After Lee wrote a couple of screenplays, he eventually appeared on the film scene with Pushing Hands (1992), a dramatic-comedy reflecting on generational conflicts（分歧） and cultural adaptation（改造）. The Wedding Banquet (1993) as Lee’s next film, an exploration of cultural and generational conflicts through a homosexual（同性恋的）Chinese man who feigns（假装）a marriage in order to satisfy the traditional demands of his Taiwanese parents. It obtained him globe and Oscar nominations（提名）, and won a Golden Bear at the Berlin Film Festival. The third movie in his trilogy（三部曲）of Taiwanese-Culture / Generation films, was Eat Drink Man Woman (1994), which received a Best Foreign Film Oscar nomination. Lee followed this with Sense and Sensibility (1995), his first Hollywood-mainstream movie. It acquired a Best Picture Oscar nomination, and won Best Adapted Screenplay. The National Board of Review and the New York Film Critics Circle also voted the year’s Best Director Lee. Lee and frequent cooperator James Schamus next filmed The Ice Storm (1997), which acquired the 1997 Best Screenplay at Cannes(嘎纳). The Civil War drama Ride With The Devil (1999) soon followed and received critical praise, but it was Lee’s Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000), which is considered one of his greatest works, a sprawling period film and martial arts epic that dealt with love, loyalty and loss. It swept the Oscar nominations, and became the highest grossing foreign-language film ever released in America. Lee then filmed the comic-book adaptation, Hulk (2003) — an elegant（优美的）and skillful film with nice action scenes. Lee has also shot a short film Hire, The Chosen (2001), and is currently working on Brokeback Mountain (2005), a film based on a short story by E. Annie Proulx.
Neil Jordan
Born in 1950 in Sligo, Ireland, Neil Jordan’s early career began as a writer. He wrote short stories Night in Tunisia in 1976. He also published three novels, The Past (1979), The Dream of A Beast (1983) and most recently Sunrise with Sea Monster (1994). Jordan’s published fiction has been translated into several anguages, including French, Spanish, Italian, German, Dutch, Swedish and Japanese.
In 1982 Neil Jordan wrote and directed his first feature film Angel. The Company of Wolves (1984) was his next film and was honored（给……以荣誉）with Best Film and Best Director Awards by the London Critics Circle.
Mona Lisa followed in 1986, and Mona Lisa was followed by two comedies. One, High Spirits (1988), was set in Ireland. The other, Were No Angels (1989), his first all-American production, starring Robert De Nitro and Sean Penn. He then returned to Ireland to make a much smaller film The Miracle in 1991, which starred Beverly D’Angelo.
In 1992 Jordan wrote and directed The Crying Game which was nominated for six Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor (Stephen Rea), Best Supporting Actor (Jaye Davidson) and which won Jordan an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay.
In 1994 Jordan returned to the United States to film an adaptation（改编）of Anne Rice’s popular novel Interview With the Vampire. Next came the film of the Irish revolutionary Michael Collins (1996), starring Liam Nelson, Aidan Quinn and Julia Roberts, which won a Golden Lion for best film at the Venice Film Festival. In 1999 Jordan made the psychological （心理学的）thriller In Dreams. In the same year he went on to direct his own adaptation of Graham Greene’s novel The End of the Affair. Jordan was honoured with the BAFTA for the Best Adapted Screenplay.
In February 2001 Neil Jordan was the recipient (领奖人) of the Ireland Fund of France Wild Geese Award. In December of the same year he was conferred（授予）with the degree of Doctor of Literature from the Queen’s University Belfast. Jordan set up the production company — Company of Wolves with Stephen Woolly. And now he lives in Dublin, Ireland.

Step I Revision and Lead-in

T: Good for you! There is a word rarely in her last sentence. What does it mean and what part of speech is it?
Sa: It means seldom and it’s an adverb.
T: Quite right. We’ll learn Grammar — Adverbs of frequency and place in this period.
Step II Grammar 1
T: Have you summed up the kinds of the adverbs? What are they?
S2: We have: Adverbs of manner e.g. angrily, badly, carefully, hard, well, slowly, etc.

Adverbs of time： e.g. ago, already, before, early, immediately, soon, yesterday, etc.
Adverbs of frequency： e.g. always, often, sometimes, usually, rarely, occasionally, etc.

Conjunctive adverbs: e.g. whether, why, when, however, etc.
Interrogative adverbs: e.g. when, where, why, how, etc.
Relative adverbs: e.g. when, where, why, etc.
Besides these adverbs, there are other kinds of adverbs, for example, Adverbs of direction and Adverbs of aspect.
Adverbs of direction:

The wave of hot air knocked her backwards.
Adverbs of aspect:
culturally, economically, geographically, historically, industrially, politically, socially, etc.

He is a politically active person.
T: Today we mainly deal with adverbs of frequency and place. Please turn to page 54. Let’s go through Activity 1. Read aloud these sentences and tell us which words in bold are adverbs of frequency and which are adverbs of place.
S3: The phrase “in China” in sentence D tells us where something happens. So “in China” is an adverb of place. The others are adverbs of frequency.
T: You are right. Now do Activity 1 individually and check with your partners. Pay special attention to the position of single adverbs in the sentences.
Let the Ss read the sentences and choose the answers.

A sample version:
Film Review:
A World without Thieves

Chinese director Feng Xiaogang’s New Year film A World Without Thieves has been on for a period. It’s Feng’s sixth New Year film since the first one in 1997.
The story takes place on a train. It is about two groups of thieves and a country boy. One group is moved by the boy and tries to protect the boy from being stolen by the other group.
Wang Bo (played by Andy Lau) and Wang Li (played by Rene Liu), two master thieves, swindle their way across China, until they meet Fu Gen, who does not know about life and believes that he lives in a world without thieves. Having saved a lot of money after years of work, he is going to build a house and get marriaged. Moved by his good nature, Wang Li wants to protect him from Uncle Bill (played by Ge You) who tries to steal from Fu Gen. Wang Bo, who tries to stop her at first, finally becomes kind and helps her protect the country boy.
Andy Lau has a hard time being ugly in the movie. He plays very well, so does Rene Liu. Ge You keeps his special humor in the film. What’s more, the country boy plays naturally.
I love this movie and so do all my friends. The pictures are great and the story is moving. I think this is a good film worth seeing.
Step IV Task
In this step, the Ss are asked to discuss their favorite films in groups of four. Chinese films and foreign films are both OK. First, make a list of best films, which are now on at the cinema. Second, give a brief description of each film. Third, write the reviews with some photos or pictures of the film stars, which are taken from the newspapers, magazines or online.
A sample version:

Waterloo Bridge
Stars: Vivien Leigh, Robert Taylor, Lucile Watson, Maria Ouspenskaya, Virginia Field
Director: Mervyn LeRoy
Cinema: Xinxing Cinema
Superb performances by Leigh and Taylor. The finest of Vivien Leigh’s movies, her own favorite.
This is a sad romantic film that happens during the World War I. It is very moving, even making everybody who watches it cry. Because of the superb performances by Leigh and Taylor, it has been a masterpiece.
Film Review: Waterloo Bridge
Waterloo Bridge is a sad love story in which the lovers cannot live together because of the war. In my opinion, it is a masterpiece.
The story takes place in the time of the World War I. A beautiful ballerina（芭蕾舞女演员）Myra(Vivien Leigh) falls passionately in love with officer Roy Cronin (Robert Taylor). But they have to be parted when he is called to do his duty during the World War I. Alone and increasingly poor, she learns that he has been killed in action. And so, broken hearted and unconcerned for her, she drifts into prostitution, plying the world’s oldest profession along Waterloo Bridge. But he comes back and happens to meet her at the station. They go to meet his family, and he tries to marry her. But in her heart, she cannot forgive herself, so she leaves without saying goodbye and goes towards the cars bravely. He comes only to find the thing she leaves at the Waterloo Bridge.
It is black and white, yet many people like it very much, just like me. What interest us most are the actress and the moving plot. Robert Taylor is a bit miscast, Leigh carries the film with a truly remarkable performance. She is really beautiful and good at acting. The cast also features an exceptional performance by Lucile Watson as Lady Margaret and notable turns by Maria Ouspenskaya, C. Aubrey Smith, and a host of others.
Although less well known than such tragic romances as Garbo’s Camille, Waterloo Bridge is easily the equal of such and considerably better than most. The romantic aura is powerful, the direction, photography, and script are first rate. And at the center of it all we have perhaps the most beautiful actress of her era, Vivien Leigh, in one of her finest performances.
It is really moving and great. I like it very much, so do most of my friends. You should go and see it some day.
Step V Homework
Write a film review as soon as you see a new film.

II. 背景知识
HONG KONG, China —Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon picked up four Academy Awards except the best director and best picture.
The cast and crew of the martial arts fantasy said winning four out of the 10 nominations gained by the film was “more than enough” and it encouraged them to do even better next time.
Lee and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon still made Academy history Sunday night by being the first Asian film to win the foreign-language film award. It also picked up Oscars in art direction, cinematography and best original score (配乐). Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon’s stars, Michelle Yeoh and Chow Yuma-fat, were invited to present and cellist（大提琴家）Yo-Yo Ma performed the haunting score by Tan Dun.
Lee originally pitched the idea for Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon to his producers as “Sense and Sensibility with kung fu.” But doing a martial arts film fulfilled a childhood fantasy for Lee. Lee has ideas on how he could make it better, (with) more dramatic juices. He’s thinking with action, maybe he could do it better.
The film was the first foreign-language film to win double-digit Oscar nominations and the first Asian film ever nominated for best picture. Most importantly for future foreign films and Asian films in particular, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is the first subtitled（ 配字幕的）film to break the $100 million box office mark in North America.
Hong Kong’s Peter Pau won the Academy’s best cinematography prize in a nod to the dynamic（动态的）fight scenes along with special effects that have the actors gliding across rooftops and swinging on bamboo. Pau, one of Hong Kong’s top cinematographers, is the first Chinese cinematographer to win the Oscar honor. Backstage, Pau said that in visualizing the film, he tried to recall the style of traditional Chinese watercolor painting.
Chinese-born composer Tan Dun, who won the Academy Award for best original score, called the film an overture for a new era. A composer of world reputation as well as Lee’s friend and neighbor in New York, Tan Dun told reporters there were no cultural boundaries in music.
Lee says “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon’s” honors were encouragement to film makers and watchers in Asia, where the Oscar results were seen ultimately as a triumph for Asian film and Asian talent.
The cast and crew were drawn from around the Chinese diasporas（散居各地的人），including Taiwan, Hong Kong, mainland China, Malaysia and the United States. Malaysian-born Michelle Yeoh said the cast and crew are focused on what the movie did win, not what it did not. “All of us understand we are here and our movie has done exceedingly well.” “We all learn every day and that’s the magic about film making. There might never be another Crouching Tiger. There might be something that’s even better than Crouching Tiger.” she said.

Part 3: Reading Comprehension
A
What is language for？ Some people seem to think it's for practicing grammar rules and learning lists of words—the longer the lists， the better． That's wrong． Language is for the exchange（交流） of ideas and information． It's meaningless knowing all about a language if you can't use it freely． Many students I have met know hundreds of grammar rules， but they can't speak correctly or fluently（流利地）． They are afraid of making mistakes． One shouldn't be afraid of making mistakes when speaking a foreign language． Native speakers make mistakes and break rules， too． Bernard Saw once wrote， “Foreigners often speak English too correctly． ” But the mistakes that native speakers make are different from those that Chinese students make． They're English mistakes in the English language． And if enough native speakers break a rule， it is no longer a rule． What used to be wrong becomes right． People not only make history， they make language． But a people can only make its own language． It can't make another people's language． So Chinese students of English should pay attention to grammar， but they shouldn't overdo（做过头） it． They should put communication（交际） first．
36． Language is used to ＿＿＿＿＿．
A． express oneself B． practise grammar rules
C． talk with foreigners only D． learn lists of words
37． Generally， when an American or an Englishman speaks English， he ＿＿＿＿＿．
A． never makes mistakes B． often makes mistakes
C． can't avoid making mistakes D． always makes mistakes
38． “Foreigners often speak English too correctly． ” This sentence means that ＿＿．
A． foreigners speak correct English B． foreigners speak incorrect English
C． foreigners speak English according to the grammar rules
D． foreigners never make mistakes when they speak English
39． If too many native speakers break a rule，＿＿＿＿＿＿．
A． what they use will become right B． they are against the law
C． they should say sorry to others D． they will become heroes
40． When we speak a foreign language， we should ＿＿＿＿＿＿ ．
A． speak in Chinese way B． speak by the rules
C． speak to native speakers D． not be afraid of making mistakes
B
Mr and Mrs Gordon were sitting on the sand， reading their magazines． Mr Gordon was too stingy（吝啬）to rent（租） a chair． Their twelve－year－old daughter，Sandra， was playing at the water's edge． Suddenly a huge wave lifted Sandra up and carried her out to sea． Fortunately（幸运的是），a lifeguard（救生员） was on duty and he saw the wave carry Sandra away． He ran along the beach and dived into the sea． He swam quickly to where the girl， with her head only just above the water， was shouting for help． She was very frightened． When the lifeguard reached her? she struggled（挣扎） with him， as drowning（即将淹死的） people often do． However， he was a skilful lifeguard and quickly took hold of her and swam with her back to the beach． By the time he reached it， Mr and Mrs Gordon had realized what had happened． They had run down to the water's edge． Neither of them could swim． They just stood in the shallow water， and worried about their daughter． Had the lifeguard reached her in time？ Fortunately， he had． “That was quick work，young man，”Mr Gordon said． He turned to his wife， “Give the lifeguard a dollar．” “A dollar！” Sandra cried． “Dad，how can you give him a dollar！ He saved my life． I was half dead．” “Quite right， girl?” Mr Gordon said， pleased by his daughter's awareness（知道） of the value of money． He turned to his wife again and said， “She's right． She was only half dead． Give him fifty cents． ”

Long Time No See!
"long time no see" is a very interesting sentence . When I first read this sentence from an American friend’s e - mail, I laughed. I thought it was a perfect of Chinglish.
Obviously, it is a word - by - word literal translation of the Chinese greetings with a ruled English grammar and structure! Later on, my friend told me that it is a standard American greeting. I was too thrilled to believe her. Her words could not convince me at all. So I did a research on google, com. To my surprise, there are over 60 thousand web pages containing "Long time no see". This sentence has been widely used in e-mails, letters, newspapers, movies, books, or any other possible place. Though it is sort of informal, it is part of the language that Americans use daily. Ironically, if you type this phrase in Microsoft Word, the software will tell you that the grammar needs to be corrected.
Nobody knows the origin of the Chinglish sentence. Some people believe that it came from Charlie Chan’s movies. In the 1930s, Hollywood moviemakers successfully created a world - wide famous Chinese detective(侦探) named "Charlie Chan" on wide screens. Detective Chan likes to teach Americans some Chinese wisdom by quoting(引用) Confucius(孔夫子). "Long time no see" was his trademark. Soon after Charlie Chan, "Long time no see" became a popular phrase in the real world with thanks to the popularity of these movies.
Some scholars refer America as a huge pot of stew. All kinds of culture are mixed in the stew together, and they. change the color and taste of each other. American Chinese, though a minority ethnic(少数民族的成员) group in the United States, is also contributing some changes to the stew! Language is usually the first thing to be influenced in the mixed stew.
You can have some other examples than adoptions from Chinese, such as pizza from Italian, susi from Japanese, and deja vu from French etc. There is a long list! Americans do not just simply borrow something from others, They will modify it and make it their own, so you would not be surprised to find a tofu and peanut butter hamburger in a restaurant, or to buy a bottle of iced Chinese green tea with honey in a grocery store. Since Americans appreciate Chinese culture more and more nowadays, I believe more Chinese words will become American and keeps adding richness and
flavor.
