Founded in 2010 by Matt McArthur, The Record Co.aims to give musicians more affordable access to the creative workspace and introduce the world of music to those who may have never considered their place in it. McArthur understands this challenge first－hand.As a music technology student at Berklee College of Music, he was frustrated by the high costs of renting time in production studios.On average, a recording studio in Boston costs more than $100 per hour to rent. He saw a recording studio not as a private office for a man of means but as a community center available to all.So he took out loans, collected donations and opened a studio in a tiny basement in Cambridge, Massachusetts.Slowly but steadily, McArthur expanded it and eventually rented a new property to include spaces for practice and production. Today, The Record Co., with a full－time staff of more than 20 people, is a state－of－the－art, 12,000－foot facility that can be rented for as little as $10 per hour.Each month, it receives about 1,000 reservations, and around 3,500 musicians pass through its doors.At The Record Co., the principle is clear: Music should be affordable for everyone, and so should the space for creating it.The building has been shaped not only with an ear to acoustics (音响效果) but also with an eye to ensure it is as welcoming to a musician in a wheelchair as to one who walks in with a guitar over the shoulder. 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了McArthur创建所有人都负担得起的录音室The Record Co.的故事。 4．Why did McArthur found The Record Co.? A．To make musicians well－known. B．To make a fortune through music. C．To persuade people to pursue music. D．To make music production affordable. 解析：选D　细节理解题。根据第二段“Founded in 2010 ...considered their place in it.”可知，McArthur创建The Record Co.是为了给音乐家提供更实惠的创作场所。 5．What does the author intend to do in paragraph 3?

D．Launch an appeal for musical creation. 解析：选B　推理判断题。通读第三段可知，该段介绍了一些背景信息：McArthur创建录音室的原因。 6．What does the underlined word “means” in paragraph 4 mean? A．Wealth.　　　　　 B．Method. C．Vision.

Kuube's smart bench comes in three sizes.All come with USB ports, wireless chargers, and a Wi－Fi hotspot function — free for everyone.All three smart benches charge up thanks to solar panels, which makes them easily movable. First comes KuubeECO, the smallest of the three smart benches.It's a three－seater that comes equipped with two USB ports and one wireless charger.It has unlimited Internet access thanks to its Wi－Fi hotspot.The bench with one display screen continuously monitors its environment, such as changes in UV levels or air pressure — displaying them on its monitor for those interested.Then comes KuubeNANO, the middle child that can seat up to four people and comes with all the same offerings as KuubeECO.And finally comes the largest option, KuubePLUS.This smart bench offers more of a group, or family seating style and can accommodate up to eight people.It offers four charging options and two display screens. The three smart benches all have an aluminum chassis (铝制底座) that's recyclable and are made from natural ash wood for the seating sections.Kuube is clearly a sustainability－focused start－up that's combining design and technology to make cities and parks friendlier to everyone. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了匈牙利一家新创公司研发的“智能长椅”。这种为现代城市中心设计的长椅可以为人们提供手机充电、连接无线网络等服务。 8．What does the author think of buying coffee to access Wi－Fi?

D．Four wireless chargers. 解析：选A　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Then comes KuubeNANO ... comes with all the same offerings as KuubeECO.”可知，KuubeNANO为四人座的长椅，其余功能与 KuubeECO一样； 结合上文中的“First comes KuubeECO ... equipped with two USB ports and one wireless charger.”可知，KuubeNANO提供两个USB接口和一个无线充电器。 11．Where is the text most likely taken from? A．A guidebook. B．A magazine. C．An advertisement. D．A novel. 解析：选B　文章出处题。根据第一段并结合下文可知，文章主要介绍了一种可为人们提供手机充电、连接无线网络等服务的智能长椅，配备了现代旅行者在任何城市舒适穿行时可能需要的所有必需品，由此可推断，本文最有可能出现在某个杂志上。 D The cultural products we create reflect the times we live in.“Works of popular culture, we reasoned, should reflect the extent to which nature occupies our collective consciousness (集体意识)，” says psychologist Dr Selin Kesebir.“If novelists, songwriters or film－makers have fewer encounters with nature these days than before, or if they don't expect their audiences to respond to it, nature would feature less frequently in their works.” The researchers drew up a list of 186 nature－related words belonging to four categories: general words relating to nature such as cloud, or sunrise; names of flowers; names of trees; and birds' names.Then they analyzed how often these occurred in the output of popular culture.They looked at English－language fiction, pop songs and film plots, each of which featured thousands of examples. The results were consistent across books, songs and movies.“The space taken by nature has been decreasing in the collective imagination and cultural conversation since the 1950s.Nature features significantly less in English popular culture today than it did in the first half of the 20th century，” says Dr Kesebir. Why? Some people suggest it's the growth of cities that has fuelled the change.“Urbanization swallows up natural areas and cuts people off from their natural surroundings，” says Dr Kesebir.But, she goes on, the growth rate of cities over the 20th century is gradual, but the data shows a marked change from the 1950s onwards.So it's not just the fact that fewer of us are living in rural areas that explains the decline. More likely, she believes, we're seeing the impact of technological change leading to more indoor recreational activities.Yes, TV, video games and the Internet are to blame.“These technologies may well have been substituted for nature as a source of joy, recreation and entertainment.” Books, songs and films shape our culture as well as reflecting it, says Dr Kesebir.“The declining cultural attention to nature means a muting of the message that nature is worth paying attention to and talking about.It also means a loss of opportunities to awaken curiosity, appreciation and awe for nature.” 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了文化产品反映我们生活的时代，特别是自然在文化产品中的出现频率下降的现象。 12．How did the researchers conduct their study of popular culture? A．By having interviews. B．By doing field research. C．By analyzing collected data. D．By referring to previous studies. 解析：选C　细节理解题。根据第二段“The researchers drew up ...featured thousands of examples.”可知，研究人员通过分析收集的数据来进行流行文化研究。 13．How did English popular culture change after the 1950s? A．It highlighted fictional stories. B．It caught the public's imagination. C．Its nature elements were greatly reduced. D．Its focus shifted from fiction to conversations. 解析：选C　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The space taken by nature has been decreasing ...says Dr Kesebir.”可知，20世纪50年代以后，自然在当今英国流行文化中的地位明显下降。 14．What's largely responsible for the change according to Dr Kesebir? A．Technology. B．The population. C．City development. D．The environment. 解析：选A　细节理解题。根据第五段“More likely, she believes ...and entertainment.”可知，Kesebir博士认为造成这一变化的主要原因是技术。 15．What does the underlined word “muting” in the last paragraph probably mean? A．Explanation. B．Silence. C．Exchange. D．Emphasis. 解析：选B　词义猜测题。根据画线词下一句可推测，此处指的应该是“The declining cultural attention to nature (文化对自然关注的减少)”意味着“nature is worth paying attention to and talking about (自然值得关注和谈论的)”这一信息也“无人可知”，故画线词与B项词义相近。 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Write a Movie Review Whether it's for pleasure or a job requirement, writing a good movie review can be a useful exercise.__16__ If you've recently watched a film and want to share your opinions about it, here are some tips to help you compose a wonderful movie review.

Tom was playing computer games for increasing amounts of time, and gradually, he hardly left his seat.Mary tried to limit his game time, but this only seemed to fuel his addiction further and cause more arguments. Although desperate, Mary never gave up on finding a way to help the boy struggling with this gaming addiction.She decided to take Tom to visit his grandfather, who owned a big farm.Every day, his grandfather walked through rows of crops, examining the plants for pests or disease.He found great satisfaction in caring for the land and animals.For him, the farm was not just a place of work but a way of life.Tom was unwilling to leave his game, but he knew it was not a good idea to go against his mother this time. When they arrived at the airport in the late afternoon, Grandfather drove them to his farm.They were all packed in the car, with adults chatting and laughing, but Tom felt lonely.Looking out of the window, he was attracted by the amazing scenery.The water was blue and sunlight glittered on its clear surface and the grassland flowed like a sea of green.He couldn't help thinking of the world he would have designed in his computer game. After settling down, Tom shut himself in his room.Except for dinner, he refused to come out of his room and remained there all day.Sometimes, he stood by the window, staring at the peaceful garden his grandfather had made. One night, drops of water from the ceiling dripped onto his face, making him wake up.Shocked at what he saw, he realized a big rainstorm had just ended.He stood with his nose pressed against the glass, watching his family struggling to clear the mess in the dim light. 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式作答。 Thinking of the efforts his grandfather had made, Tom knew what he must do immediately._____________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________ He was appreciating the renewed garden when his mom came over.____________________ ___________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________ 参考范文： Thinking of the efforts his grandfather had made, Tom knew what he must do immediately.He opened the door and rushed outside without a second thought.Picking up a broom, he began to sweep away the fallen leaves and the broken branches, his eyes fixed on the ground.His face was full of determination and sweat started to stream down his cheeks despite the coldness in the dark.His family looked at him in surprise and then smiled with relief.Tom worked hard, feeling a sense of purpose he hadn't experienced in a long time.As they continued working bit by bit, the garden started to take on a new look. He was appreciating the renewed garden when his mom came over.She gently put her hand on his shoulder and said, “I'm so proud of you, Tom.” Tom lowered his head slightly, his cheeks flushing with shame.“Mom, I'm really sorry for always being so obsessed with games.I didn't realize how much I was missing out on until now.” His mom's eyes softened, and she pulled him into a warm hug.“It's okay, honey.I'm just glad you're here with us now.” Tom smiled, realizing that the real world held joys far greater than any virtual one in games.From then on, he spent more time with family and less time glued to the computer screen.

As Dad used to say, “If it isn't broken, don't fix it！” But unfortunately my mental health did “break”．I was diagnosed (诊断) as seriously clinically anorexic (厌食的) at age 23.I had immediate treatment in hospital, which lasted two and a half years.People always wonder what helped me recover and the key was simple: comedy. I'm a professional stand－up comic.Comedy began as my hobby and has progressed into a job.The word “comedy” is believed to come from the Ancient Greek kōmos meaning “to reveal”， whose job is to reveal, explain and understand things.This was something I turned to when I was in recovery from anorexia.I'd never been able to explain what going on inside my head; trying to explain what's going on in your mind is like trying to explain a color to someone who's blind.So humour became a way of understanding things and then a way of explaining them. Dr Dieter Declercq, Lecturer in Film at the University of Kent, believes “Humour can change our opinions on a difficult situation”．However, he adds carefully that “We should avoid judgments like All humour is good for you.” In his new book Satire, Comedy and Mental Health, he looks at how comedy can be used as a mental health method.Enjoyed with others, it is important for good mental health and recovery. Stand－up comedy was important to my recovery.I know I'm not alone in that.So I want to pay that forward and show other people your mental health doesn't have to be “broken” before you can “fix it”． 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章通过讲述作者的亲身经历介绍了喜剧对于心理健康的作用，并呼吁人们重视心理健康。 4．How did the author treat the issue of mental health as a teenager? A．She took it seriously. B．She was confident of it. C．She hated talking about it.

C．State where comedy comes from. D．Show why comedy is a common hobby. 解析：选A　推理判断题。根据第三段可知，作者讲述了在从厌食症恢复的过程中，喜剧所产生的幽默可以帮助她理解周围的事物，并成为解释事物的一种方式。由此推知，本段主要介绍了喜剧是如何帮助作者走出厌食症的。 6．What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 4 refer to? A．Comedy. 　 B．Film. C．A difficult situation. 　 D．The new book. 解析：选A　代词指代题。根据画线词前一句“he looks at how comedy can be used as a mental health method”可知，德克勒克博士探讨了将喜剧作为心理健康的方法。再结合画线词所在句“it is important for good mental health and recovery”可知，德克勒克博士认为喜剧对良好的心理健康和恢复很重要。由此推知，it指代的是上文的“comedy”。 7．In which section of a magazine is this text probably from?

The day starts officially at 9：00 a．m., but Laanelinnu kindergarten that widely gains a liking of working parents opens two hours earlier and does not close until 7：00 p．m.In doing so, working parents won't worry about being late for work and leaving the office early. The kindergarten focuses on pre－school education.Classrooms, with vast windows fronting onto forest, fan out around a whitewashed central hall, and outside a large playground surrounds the entire building.Some of the children who attend Laanelinnu are as young as two, but as we enter the building barely a sound can be heard.In each of the classrooms, which are large and well equipped, there are up to 20 children — attentive and focused — supervised by a qualified pre－school teacher and two assistant teachers. Despite having visitors, the children at Laanelinnu focus on their lessons.In one darkened classroom, they lie on their backs in a quiet corner as their teachers prepare for the day ahead.In another class, there's music and dancing.In another group, children are doing a project about the human body，while next door there's a cookery class going on, with a tasting period followed by bread－making. The pre－school course takes in everything from letters and language skills to art, music and robotics. “Though it's not called school, it's the first step of their education，” says the kindergarten's project manager. “We do teach kids here.It is no longer simply childcare.” By the time they leave, most children will have learned to read and write, but in a relaxed and play－led environment. The kindergarten system is an integrated part of national education and at the end of their time there, children are given a school readiness card that they take with them to the next stage in their education. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了Laanelinnu幼儿园不只是照顾孩子，而且为家长的工作提供便利，注重学龄前教育，这很受家长喜欢。 8．Why is Laanelinnu kindergarten popular among working parents? A．It starts officially at 9：00 a．m. B．It only needs a 15－minute drive. C．It offers them maximum flexibility. D．It allows them to pick up their kids early. 解析：选C　推理判断题。根据第二段中“The day starts officially at 9：00 a．m., but Laanelinnu kindergarten that widely gains a liking of working parents opens two hours earlier and does not close until 7：00 p．m.”可知，Laanelinnu幼儿园的开园时间早和放学时间晚，这为上班的家长接送孩子提供了极大的便利。由此推知，时间上最大程度的灵活性让Laanelinnu幼儿园受到在职家长们的欢迎。 9．What does the underlined word “supervised” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Monitored.　　　　　 B．Praised. C．Adopted. D．Trained. 解析：选A　词义猜测题。结合画线词后“a qualified pre－school teacher and two assistant teachers”可推知，20个孩子是由幼儿园的教师和两名助理教师“监管”，所以画线词意为“监督；管理”。 10．How might the visitors find Laanelinnu's classes? A．Energetic.　　　　　　 B．Conventional. C．Various. D．Loose. 解析：选C　细节理解题。根据第四段可知，Laanelinnu幼儿园课程种类很多；由此可知，来访者会发现Laanelinnu幼儿园课程丰富多样。 11．Which of the following could be the best title for the text?

In the book, the hero Pina struggles with the suffering from losing his brothers, who have traveled to a nearby mountain and never returned.Pina decides to go to the same mountain, trying to uncover the facts, where he happens to meet Savik, who gives Pina a choice: To follow him or to meet the same fortune as his brothers.Pina's decision takes himself on a journey that exposes himself to the dances and songs that are part of Iñupiaq culture.Eagle Drums describes aspects of Iñupiaq life as a world that doesn't exist much in the current world, such as walking in the tundra (苔原) and imagining mythological beings and talking animals everywhere.It will definitely inspire the teen magical thinking in its beauty. Hopson wants to write more Iñupiaq stories.“We have a lot of oral history and stories in our culture，” she says.Hopson explains that Iñupiaq people use their voices, facial expressions and movements to express emotions as they tell a story.“But you can't do that when you're writing，” she says.“It's very uncomfortable, in a way, to have to write down something that is a performance.” But she's up for the challenge. Eagle Drums is for anyone who is looking for a vivid adventure.Hopson says that when Iñupiaq kids read her work, they get excited about seeing something from their own area and their own culture.Other kids who read her work tell Hopson they're excited about experiencing a story they've never experienced before in a new place.“You know, that's the best part, hearing feedbacks，” she says. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了Hopson创作的小说《鹰鼓》，包括其创作基础、大致内容、作者创作的感受，以及读者的评价。 12．What do we know about Eagle Drums? A．It is based on the author's culture. B．It is about a world－famous festival. C．It is one of the author's best novels. D．It is rich in illustrations on each page. 解析：选A　细节理解题。根据第一段中“She has written short stories and made art inspired by her Iñupiaq culture.”和“Hopson's first and only novel to date, Eagle Drums, is set in Iñupiaq tales about a great festival.”可知，《鹰鼓》这部小说是以作者的文化为基础创作的。 13．What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us about Eagle Drums? A．Its intention.　　　　 B．Its background. C．Its content. D．Its comment. 解析：选C　段落大意题。根据第二段可知，此处介绍了小说的主要情节。再结合“Eagle Drums describes aspects of ...and talking animals everywhere.”可知，此处介绍了小说呈现的独特世界。因此，本段主要介绍的是小说的内容。 14．Why does Hopson think it uncomfortable to write Iñupiaq stories? A．The Iñupiaq people are poor performers. B．The Iñupiaq culture is too rich for words. C．The Iñupiaq language is difficult to catch on. D．The Iñupiaq stories are little known by people. 解析：选B　细节理解题。根据第三段中“Hopson explains that ...something that is a performance.” 可知，伊诺皮亚克的故事往往是通过生动的声音和肢体语言来呈现的，但是写作的时候，语言很难把这样丰富的文化表现出来，所以Hopson会觉得不舒服。 15．What is probably the text? A．A news report. B．A childhood story. C．A diary entry. D．A book review. 解析：选D　推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章围绕Hopson创作的小说《鹰鼓》展开，主要从其创作基础、大致内容、作者创作的感受以及读者的评价四个方面介绍了这部小说。因此，本文应该是一篇书评。 Ⅱ.阅读七选五 How to Be Authentic (真实的) A lot of people tend to put on different faces around different people, or tailor their personality based on context.Nevertheless, when a person is authentic, they stay true to themselves and act in ways that show how they feel.__16__ Now, let's explore some practical tips that can guide you on the path to being authentic. Accept yourself for who you are.__17__ Try to be slower to criticize yourself or see yourself not as good as others.Focus on accepting and appreciating who you are as a unique individual.This will lead to authentic behaviors in line with your personality. Don't put on a different face or personality for social functions.In order to be authentic, simply be yourself in all social and interpersonal contexts.__18__ However, it is not authentic, and other people will see through you quickly.Of course, it's only natural to slightly modify your behavior and vocabulary around certain people.You talk to your boss differently than you talk to your partner. Express your thoughts and feelings.__19__ Authentic people are comfortable speaking their mind and communicating when they have a problem or are appreciative of something.If you feel uneasy to speak your mind, or realize that you frequently only say what you think those around you expect to hear, you're likely to behave inauthentically. __20__It not only builds genuine relationships but also contributes to a sense of inner peace and self－satisfaction.Remember, the journey towards authenticity is ongoing and develops with self－discovery and life experiences. A．Express gratitude to those around you. B．This can be perceived as insincere or rude. C．Talk about your opinion when it matters to you. D．This often requires a mental attitude adjustment. E．Being authentic is about being true in thoughts, feelings, and actions. F．Sometimes you may tend to act the way you think others want to impress them. G．They also display a consistent set of values, and don't change their behavior at will. 语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。文章主要围绕如何展现真实的自我以及真诚待人这个问题提供了一些实用的建议。 16．选G　根据上句可知，空处应为真诚的人的特点。故G项(他们还表现出一套一致的价值观，不会随意改变自己的行为)承接上文，符合语境。 17．选D　根据上句“Accept yourself for who you are.”及下文的具体做法可知，空处为接受真实的自己的要求，故D项(这通常需要心理态度的调整)承上启下，符合语境。 18．选F　根据后句可知，空处应为一些不真诚的行为，F项(有时你可能会倾向于按照你认为别人想要的方式行事来给他们留下深刻印象)与下文构成转折关系，符合语境。 19．选C　根据上句“Express your thoughts and feelings.”可知，空处应为表达自己的观点，故C项(在对你重要的时候说出你的观点)符合语境。 20．选E　空后一句再次重申了保持真诚的意义以及重要性，且“It”应代指E项中的“Being authentic”，表示“真实”，故E项(真实是指在思想、感觉和行动上保持真实)符合语境。 附：《阅读·久久为功》 一、背主题名句，写大气文章 1．(教材名句)As journalists, we are the disseminators of beauty.We disseminate the most beautiful things in life to the people, letting them know what is beautiful and what is ugly about the world. —Mu Qing 我们新闻记者是美的传播者，要把生活中最美的东西传播给人民，让大家知道世界上什么是美的，什么是丑的。 ——穆青 2．(教材名句)A good newspaper, I suppose, is a nation talking to itself.—Arthur Miller 我认为，一份好的报纸是一个民族在同自己对话。 ——阿瑟·米勒 3．(教材名句)Many a small thing has been made large by the right kind of advertising. —Mark Twain 许多小事情通过适当的广告被放大。 ——马克·吐温 4．(教材名句)Film is one of the three universal languages, the other two: mathematics and music. —Frank Capra 电影是三种世界性语言之一，另外两种是：数学和音乐。 ——弗兰克·卡普拉 5．All of us who professionally use the mass media are the shapers of society. —William Bernbach 我们所有专业使用大众传媒的人都是社会的塑造者。 ——威廉·伯恩巴克 6．Journalism is merely history's first draft. 新闻仅仅是历史的初稿。 7．Trying to determine what is going on in the world by reading newspapers is like trying to tell the time by watching the second hand of a clock. 试图通过读报纸来了解世界上正在发生什么就如同试图通过看时钟的秒针来知道时间一样。 8．It's well－known that the online news spreads more quickly than the newspaper. 众所周知，网络新闻的传播速度要比报纸快得多。 二、课文不厌百遍读，书中自有“黄金屋” Lesson 1　From Page to Screen(从纸书到屏幕) have high expectations when a film of a favourite book is made.There are many times I have been pessimistic about or even disappointed by a film of a book I love.Although highly regarded books do not always make good films, (The Godfather immediately springs to mind.) [课文对译] 读书和看电影是两种截然不同的体验。如果人们最喜欢的书籍被翻拍成电影，他们对电影的期待值自然更高，这种现象很正常。不止一次，我喜欢的书籍拍成电影，我都不看好，甚至很失望。尽管高质量的书并不总是能拍出好看的电影，优秀的电影也可能来自不是那么好的书，说的倒是没错。(这让我马上想到《教父》。) [难句破解]　 句①：but连接两个并列句。其中第一个分句中动名词短语作主语；第二个分句中it作形式主语，不定式是真正的主语；when引导时间状语从句。 句②：although引导让步状语从句；主句中it作形式主语，真正的主语是后面的动词不定式，其中that引导宾语从句。 The source material for a film may be taken from classic novels, short stories, comic books and stage plays, as well as non－fiction such as biographies and autobiographies, even those All can work well, but why do many adaptations and indeed remakes fail both cinema audiences and critics? And why do some adaptations get lower ratings than others? [课文对译] 一部电影可以取材自经典小说、短篇小说、漫画书、舞台剧，也可以取自传记、自传等非小说作品，甚至是代笔人写的作品。这些素材都可以拍出很棒的作品，但为什么许多改编、翻拍的电影没能受到电影观众与评论家的好评呢？为什么有些改编作品的评分比其他作品低呢？ [难句破解]　 句③：过去分词短语作后置定语，修饰代词those。 A key question is obviously how close to the original the film is.Since a typical film is only for the screen and what to leave out.Screenwriters take creative liberty and sometimes there may be changes to the plot, additions, and even different endings to please producers, directors and test audiences.I, like many people, have often left the cinema feeling “the film is not like the book”． [课文对译] 显而易见，一个关键的问题在于这部电影与原作接近程度如何。电影通常只有两小时左右，在有限的时间里，编剧要决定书中哪部分适合银幕，哪部分不适合。对此编剧有一定的创作自由度，有时为了迎合制片人、导演、观众，会改动部分情节，甚至演绎不同结局。和很多人一样，我也经常在看完电影后感叹“这部电影和原作不一样”。 [难句破解]　 句④：since引导原因状语从句；主句中it作形式主语，不定式是真正的主语，其中第一个what引导宾语从句，第二个what构成“疑问词＋to do sth.”结构，在句中作宾语。 Another problem area is the cast.Finding actors acceptable to film audiences can mean the difference between success and failure.Readers of the book use their imaginations to visualise characters and have very definite ideas about how characters should look and sound.This is where [课文对译] 另一个问题是演员阵容。找到电影观众所接受的演员，有时决定着电影的成败。读者会通过自己的想象，将书中的人物形象化，角色的外貌、声音他们都有明确的想法。我认为选择的演员不符合他们的想象，成为很多电影改编失败的原因。 [难句破解]　 句⑤：where引导表语从句，在从句中作地点状语。 Life of Pi are changing this idea.CGI (Computer Generated Image) technology has had a huge impact on the film industry.It allowed the previously unfilmable to become a reality. [课文对译] 一些书由于技术原因很难拍成电影，虽然《少年派的奇幻漂流》等电影的出现正在改变这一问题。电脑生成动画技术对电影产业有重大影响，让以前无法拍摄的内容成为现实。 [难句破解]　 句⑥：主句中使用了too ...to ...结构，意为“太……而不能……”；although 引导让步状语从句。 In fact, sometimes authors are very involved in the process and may even be the screenwriter. and find to adapt to a new form. writers have been very unsatisfied with the film versions of their work; Stephen King is an example of this. popular novel The Catcher in the Rye could ever be made.In this situation, be disappointed ! For me, anyway, it is always a bad idea to watch a film of a book you love. [课文对译] 人们可能会认为，最适合改编电影的人应该是书籍作者本人。事实上，作者有时的确会参与改编，甚至可能担任电影编剧。但这其实有局限性，因为作者本人可能过于忠于书中内容，很难将其改编成一种新的形式。有时作者本人并不是电影编剧，于是出现了作者对自己作品所拍摄的电影版本非常不满意的情况。史蒂芬·金就是这样。小说家杰罗姆·大卫·塞林格更为极端，他永远不准自己广受欢迎的小说《麦田里的守望者》被拍成电影版本。如果是这样，读者就永远不会失望！不管怎样，我认为去看自己钟爱的书籍翻拍成的电影不会是个好主意。 [难句破解]　 句⑦：that引导宾语从句，其中含有强调句型，其结构为“it＋be＋被强调部分＋that/who ...”。 句⑧：because引导原因状语从句；find it difficult to adapt ...中it作形式宾语，真正的宾语为to adapt to a new form。 句⑨：and连接两个并列分句，其中第二个分句中where引导定语从句，修饰先行词instances。 句⑩：Even more extreme是表语提前引起的倒装；who引导定语从句，修饰先行词novelist J．D.Salinger。 句⑪：此处含有it be＋adj.＋that ...结构，其中it作形式主语，that引导主语从句。 Despite the challenges, there have been some highly successful films made from popular books.For me, Jaws, Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings all fit this category.And possibly the best proof adapted from the 007 novels of lan Fleming.

[课文对译] 广告业的根本目的是向潜在消费者推销商品。广告代理公司创造出一种基本的广告形式，也就是我们所熟知的商业广告。与社会、经济和技术发展过程同步，多年来这些广告经历了一个变化的过程。 Classic advertisements used to give information about finding certain products.It was likely to from which the product originated.For example, it could be “Shanghai Sewing Machines”， or “Tsing Tao Beer Corporation”．From the name you would know what the company sells, where they are located, and the name of the product. [课文对译] 以前，经典的广告会给出识别产品的信息。这些信息可能是公司名，其中一部分可能包含产品的原产地，比如，“上海缝纫机厂”或“青岛啤酒公司”。一看名字，你就知道这些公司销售的具体产品、所在地点以及产品名称。 [难句破解]　 句①：此处含有it be likely to do sth.意为“很可能做某事”；“介词＋which”引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词 the name of a company，其中又包含一个from which 引导的定语从句，修饰先行词the place。 Advertising agencies used to create this kind of advertising and it could be very effective.But then they realised that it might not be suitable for a marketplace where products and services are in direct competition with each other.Particularly now, in modern times, advertisements need to attract and hold the attention of the public.For this reason, it's now normal to see advertisements that Others try to create advertisements that people simply enjoy looking at.As present－day advertisers often have large budgets, huge amounts of money are spent on applying modern design techniques to make these advertisements as visually attractive as possible.However, even this is often not enough to be noticed in a modern city. [课文对译] 广告代理公司过去常制作这种广告，而且效果很好。但后来他们意识到，在产品与服务直接竞争的市场上，这种广告类型可能不太适合。特别是在当代社会，广告需要吸引、保持公众的注意力。因此，现在的广告常常引用专家的图片、文字，向人们展示产品有多棒。还有一些广告代理公司尝试制作具有观赏性的广告。现在的广告客户通常预算充足，他们会花大笔的钱采用现代设计技术，让广告更具视觉吸引力。但即便是这种广告方式在现代城市中也不足以引起消费者的注意。 [难句破解]　 句②：主句为“it＋be＋adj.＋不定式”结构，it为形式主语，动词不定式为真正的主语；that引导定语从句，修饰先行词advertisements，其中又包含一个how引导的宾语从句。 Because of the boost in advertising, people are used to seeing a high standard of visual design.Modern advertisements need something else to separate them from their competitors.To stand out in a world of competitive advertising, they must combine the highest standard of design with creative ways to make people believe that they “must have the product”．For example, some advertisements may That is, they use the concept of freedom to sell the car.Other common ideas include happiness, wealth and success.In fact, in the world of advertisements, such content is as old as advertising itself. [课文对译] 因为广告业的迅速发展，人们早已对那些高水准的视觉设计习以为常。现代广告需要另外一些东西，以便将它们与其他竞争者区别开来。为了在竞争激烈的广告界凸显出来，他们必须将最高水准的设计与创造性的方法结合起来，使人们确信他们“必须购买这种产品”。例如，一些广告可能会暗示买车能让你自由。也就是说，广告代理公司借用自由的概念销售汽车。其他常见概念销售包括幸福、财富和成功。事实上，这些概念和广告业一样历史悠久。 [难句破解]　 句③：that引导宾语从句；此处suggest意为“暗示”，宾语从句用陈述语气，其中从句主语为动名词短语。 For many of today's advertisers, repeating old ideas is not a successful approach.Ideas that would work in the past genuinely are not as effective now.They realise that it does not matter — most people know and anticipate that the main purpose of the advertisement is to make customers buy the product.Instead, these advertisers look for other ways to make people notice their products. using humour as well as new and unusual ideas to surprise people is important.Their aim is to create something that By doing this, they hope to make people forget that someone is trying to sell them something! [课文对译] 对很多今天的广告商而言，重复过去的广告并不会获得成功。过去可行的想法，放到现在并不一定有效。他们意识到与产品关联的概念有多么吸引人并不重要——大多数人都明白，广告的主要目的就是让客户购买产品。于是，广告商转而通过打广告，让更多的消费者注意到自己的产品。当今顶级广告商认为广告要用幽默、新颖、奇特的创意给人们带来惊喜。他们的目的是创造一些人们从未见过的东西，从而让人们觉得有趣，进而让消费者忘记有人在试图向他们推销商品！ [难句破解]　 句④：that引导宾语从句，其中it作形式主语，how引导的从句作真正的主语；从句中linked with the product是过去分词短语作后置定语，修饰idea。 句⑤：that引导宾语从句，其中从句主语为动名词短语；as well as 连接humour和new and unusual ideas作using的并列宾语。 句⑥：动词不定式短语作表语，两个that均引导定语从句，修饰先行词something。 However, .Some advertisements nowadays aim to make a contribution to society and welfare.For example, there are public advertisements, which encourage citizens to participate in improving their neighbourhood, protecting the environment, and helping other people.Over the last decade, the government has sponsored advertisements to educate the public on fighting AIDS，saving water, helping the poor, giving up smoking, etc.These advertisements have helped to increase public knowledge about topics that used to be ignored by most people, and this has made our society a better place for everyone. [课文对译] 然而，并非所有的广告都是以盈利为目的销售产品与服务，现在还有一些广告的目的在于为社会和福利做贡献，比如公益广告，它鼓励市民参与改善社区、保护环境和帮助他人的活动。过去的十多年里，政府赞助了一些公益广告，教育公众防治艾滋病，呼吁民众节约用水、帮助贫困人口、戒烟等。这些广告帮助公众增强对以往被忽视话题的公共认知，也让我们的社会更加美好。 [难句破解]　 句⑦：此处为部分否定，其构成为“否定词＋不定代词”，表示“并非……都……”。 三、词汇记忆无诀窍，适时“回首”记得牢 Topic Talk 1．microblog n．　　　　　 微博 2．hence adv. 因此，由此，所以 3．broadcast n. 广播节目；电视节目 vi.& vt. 广播；播送 4．via prep. 通过(某人、某机器等)传送 5．economic adj. 经济(上)的 拓展|economy n. 经济 6．political adj. 政治的；政府的 拓展 7．diverse adj. 各种各样的 8．election n. 选举 拓展|elect vt. 选举 9．campaign n.

What her father said has been a driving inspiration over the years for her to become a television producer, bestselling author and successful entrepreneur. “Television is a good business to be in, not so much to make money but to grow your brain.Through this work I've had the fortune to meet a lot of very interesting people and learn a great deal from them，” says Kan, adding that one special program she made in 1988 and still loves is Journey through a Changing China, which aired in the United States.Starting from her hometown Guilin, she traveled Heilongjiang Province,documenting how the daily lives of people had changed over the course of the country's reform and opening－up since 1978. She mentions that her interview with Mother Teresa, winner of the 1979 Nobel Peace Prize, was “truly an amazing moment” in her career. “I worked in China for almost 40 years, a period coinciding with China's opening－up.I was there to witness and contribute to the country's breakneck pace of change.This rare experience has given me a unique vision.As I say all the time, if I stay away from China for six months, I already miss so much of what is happening there! The Chinese saying ‘a year — small change, three years — big change’ has held true all this time，” Kan says. “I am by nature very optimistic.I work hard, study hard, and the most important thing is that I feel a sense of mission. do will benefit the world，” says Kan.“When I am under stress and difficulty in my life, I always go back to my original reasons for doing this work in the first place.Persistence, for me, is important.” she added.

Fears grew that the number of deaths could reach 5, according to figures released by emergency services.Fire engines and ambulances, called at 9：30 p．m., reached the scene within 15 minutes.By this time, the fire had extended to the 15th floor.Firefighters got the situation under control around 11 p．m. There is concern that block had not followed fire safety rules. Deadly fire in tower block causes serious damage A terrible fire broke out on Sunday night, leaving the Henderson Tower seriously damaged.Emergency services estimate that the number of deaths could reach 9.By this morning, 4 people have been confirmed dead. are in a critical condition. Lisa Mayer, 29, is among the lucky ones who only suffered minor injuries.She recalled, “I was about to have a bath when I heard people screaming and dogs barking.I looked outside and the smoke was choking me.It was like an awful dream.” Mr Peterson, head of the fire service, confirms that a dropped cigarette end on a carpet of the the disaster. A team is currently investigating the accident further. Reading news reports critically We rely on news to learn about what is happening in the world around us.However, we usually find that reports on the same events contain different or even contradictory information.How do these differences come about? which would influence how would influence how they report an event. Let's take the two news reports on the Henderson Tower fire as an example. attention to the rescue efforts, while the second talks more about deaths and injuries. When we read more than one report, we come to understand an event in a more comprehensive way. each other in terms of factual details, as events in the real world are usually complicated and constantly changing.For instance, the numbers of deaths differ in the two news reports on the Henderson Tower fire.When we come across such factual differences, we should not rush to the conclusion that one of the news reports gives false information.Instead, check when the reports were written.News reports written at different stages of an event could contain different information as new facts are brought to light.Another aspect worthy of mention is that journalists may approach information they get from research or interviews differently.Suppose emergency services' estimates of the number of deaths vary between 5 and 9.Journalists may choose to present the minimum, the maximum or something in between in their news reports.Therefore, checking different sources enables us to draw a more informed conclusion. To sum up, it is wise to read news reports written from various perspectives and at different stages, which brings us a more accurate understanding of a situation.We also need to be critical about the information we receive and remember not to blindly trust what we have read.Though journalists are committed to presenting the truth, it is better to use our own judgement than rely entirely on news reports.With great discrimination, every one of us has the potential to be a critical news reader.
