The two main characters are Jake Sully, played by Sam Worthington, and Neytiri, played by Zoe Saldana. Clones named Avatars are sent to Pandora Planet to persuade people there to leave the planet so that human beings can exploit a rare mineral. Jake is sent there to control his Avatar. However, he comes across Neytiri and they fall in love with each other. At last he and the people there work together to defeat human beings and send them back to the earth. 3D technology and the beautiful natural scenery are the two highlights of the film. The message of the film is simple — human beings should protect nature and live in harmony with it. 易错点01 so...that/such...that 【助记口诀】 名前 such,形副 so; 多多少少(many/much/few/little)也用 so。 【结构拆解】 so…that… so + 形容词/副词 + that so + 形容词 + a/an + 可数名词单数 + that so clever a boy such…that… such + a/an + 形容词 + 可数名词单数 + that such a clever boy such + 形容词 + 可数名词复数/不可数名词 + that such clever boys / such clean water 【错因辨析】 易错点 1:混淆中心词 ❌ He is so a kind man that everyone likes him. ✅ He is such a kind man that everyone likes him. 错因:中心词是名词 man,不能直接用 so;so 顺序必须是 so+adj.+a/an+n. 易错点 2:many/much/few/little 误用 such ❌ There are such few mistakes in his homework. ✅ There are so few mistakes in his homework. 错因:表 “多少” 的限定词 many/much/few/little 前面固定搭配 so。 易错点 3:分不清形容词后有无名词 ❌ The film is such moving that I cried. ✅ The film is so moving that I cried. 错因:moving 是形容词,后面没有名词,直接用 so 修饰形容词。 易错点 4:little 双重含义陷阱 little(少的)→ so little water little(小的)→ such little children such little children = 这么小的孩子(little 是形容词 “幼小的”,不表数量) 【对点训练】 1.

Central to its success was Julie Taymor, the theatre, film and opera director and designer whose unique vision helped the musical spring into life on stage — proving that theatrical versions of Disney movies could not only be hugely profitable, but could do so while being artistically innovative in their own right. But when Disney initially approached her, Taymor hadn’t actually seen the Lion King. “I thought, well, why not, let’s go look at the movie,” she recalls. “And I was really taken.” The challenge of adapting an epic, wide-screen story excited her: how, she recalls wondering, would you put hundreds of African grassland animals on stage? The answer was by embracing a distinctly theatrical approach: masks and puppetry (木偶).”I went through every animal: okay, we’ve got a giraffe. I’ll put the puppet neck on top of the head of the dancer, but you’re going to see the dancer’s face…” remembers Taymor. Her designs allowed the audience to see the mechanics of how each character is made. “You can see Simba’s emotion on the actor’s face, while a mask on top of his head reminds you that this is, in fact, a lion. There is no attempt to hide the human being behind the masks or inside the puppet,” she says, a technique she called the “double event”. “I wanted to do what theatre does best,” recalls Taymor. “Film hides the strings: we know it’s fake, but we’re pretending that it’s really there. Whereas in the theatre, we will enjoy seeing a little puppet of a boat, and a big ocean of silk... The audience is not played down to — they’re brought into the game.” The how was a hit — and a new kind of musical was born. 1. What does Taymor believe theatre does best? A. Hiding its technical strings. B. Pretending everything is real. C. Competing with film visually. D. Inviting the audience into the game. 2. How did Taymor solve the stage challenge? A. By using advanced digital effects. B. By hiding the actors completely. C. By employing masks and puppetry. D. By reducing the number of animals. 3. What does the “double event” technique do? A. Hides the human actor entirely. B. Shows both the character and the actor. C. Uses only realistic animal costumes. D. Focuses solely on the puppet’s movement. 4. What is the passage mainly about? A. Techniques of film making. B. The success of Disney movies. C. The history of musical theatre. D. A director’s creative stage adaptation. 【答案】1. D 2. C 3. B 4. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了导演朱莉·泰莫如何将迪士尼电影《狮子王》改编成音乐剧,并介绍了她在舞台设计上的创新和理念。 【1题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段““I wanted to do what theatre does best,” recalls Taymor. “Film hides the strings: we know it’s fake, but we’re pretending that it’s really there. Whereas in the theatre, we will enjoy seeing a little puppet of a boat, and a big ocean of silk... The audience is not played down to — they’re brought into the game.”(“我想发挥戏剧最擅长的优势,”Taymor回忆道,“电影会隐藏操控的线索:我们明知那是假的,却假装一切真实存在。而在戏剧里,我们会欣然欣赏一艘小小的木偶船,以及用丝绸铺就的浩瀚海洋…… 观众不会被敷衍对待,而是被邀请参与到这场创作之中。”)”可知,Taymor明确对比了电影和戏剧的不同:电影会刻意隐藏“制作痕迹”、假装一切真实,而戏剧的优势是不轻视观众,让观众参与到戏剧的呈现中。故选D。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The challenge of adapting an epic, wide-screen story excited her: how, she recalls wondering, would you put hundreds of African grassland animals on stage? The answer was by embracing a distinctly theatrical approach: masks and puppetry (木偶).(将这样一部宏大的宽银幕史诗故事搬上舞台,这一挑战让她满心振奋。她回忆起当时自己的疑惑:要如何把数百只非洲草原的动物呈现在舞台上?答案便是采用极具戏剧特色的表现手法 —— 面具与木偶。)”可知, Taymor 面临的舞台挑战是如何将电影中数百种非洲草原动物搬上舞台,而她给出的直接解决方案就是运用面具和木偶的戏剧表现形式。故选C。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段““You can see Simba’s emotion on the actor’s face, while a mask on top of his head reminds you that this is, in fact, a lion. There is no attempt to hide the human being behind the masks or inside the puppet,” she says, a technique she called the “double event”.( “你能从演员的脸上看到辛巴的情绪,而他头顶的面具又会提醒你,这其实是一头狮子。我们从不会刻意去隐藏面具后、木偶里的真人。” 她这样说道,并称这一手法为 “双重呈现”。)”可知,“双重呈现” 技巧的核心是同时展现演员本身和舞台角色:观众能看到演员的面部情绪,又能通过面具感知到动物角色的设定,不刻意隐藏演员的存在。故选B。 【4题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“The Lion King musical, a beast of a show captivating US audiences since 1997, has been staged all around the world. Central to its success was Julie Taymor, the theatre, film and opera director and designer whose unique vision helped the musical spring into life on stage — proving that theatrical versions of Disney movies could not only be hugely profitable, but could do so while being artistically innovative in their own right.(音乐剧《狮子王》堪称舞台巨制,自1997年问世以来便牢牢俘获美国观众的心,如今已在全球各地上演。这部作品的成功,核心离不开朱莉・泰莫 —— 这位身兼戏剧、电影、歌剧导演与设计师的创作者,以其独树一帜的艺术构想,让这部音乐剧在舞台上焕发出鲜活的生命力,也印证了迪士尼电影的舞台改编版不仅能收获超高票房,更能凭借自身的艺术创新成就经典。)”以及下文全程围绕Taymor改编《狮子王》的创作思路、舞台技巧展开可知,文章核心围绕导演Julie Taymor展开,讲述她如何以极具创意的舞台手法,将迪士尼电影《狮子王》改编成音乐剧并取得成功,重点是这位导演的创意舞台改编。故选D。 Passage 2(甘肃省兰州市城关区兰州市第五十一中学2025-2026学年高二上学期期末英语题B篇) Byron Howard, one of the chief directors of Zootopia Series, still remembers the day in 2016 when audiences first stepped into the all-animal city. “We had painted a world without humans, but full of human problems,” he says. Yet the moment the film ended, fans asked, “What happens next?” That question kept echoing in Howard’s mind for years. In 2020 he and long-time partner Jared Bush locked themselves in a tiny story room at Disney Animation. Index cards covered every wall: some showed Nick and Judy on new cases; others pictured reptiles (爬行动物) who had never appeared in the city. “We wanted a bigger world, not just a bigger case,” Howard explains. Between cups of cold coffee they finally found the clue — why were reptiles absent from the first film? Answering that became the emotional engine of the sequel (续篇). To feel what their cold-blooded characters might experience, the team once spent an afternoon in the studio’s walk-in freezer, writing story outlines with gloves. “Our teeth chattered, but the jokes got warmer,” Bush laughs. The next five years became a cycle of creation and destruction. They drafted eight versions of the opening, built an underground jazz bar for lizards, and even designed a giraffe mayor who spoke so softly that no microphone could catch him. Each time a screening flopped, the team tore the story apart and started again. “Giving up every draft felt like cutting off a piece of my heart,” Howard laughs, “but the city deserved the best.” On November 26, 2025, when the finished film lit up the theater, Howard quietly slipped into the back row. Watching kids cheer for a snake who saves Judy, he whispered, “Welcome home.” The city that once existed only in sketches had grown, and so had its builder. 1.

B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了《疯狂动物城》续集《疯狂动物城2》漫长且富有挑战性的创作过程。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第三段“To feel what their cold-blooded characters might experience, the team once spent an afternoon in the studio’s walk-in freezer, writing story outlines with gloves.(为了感受冷血角色可能经历的感受,团队有一次在工作室的步入式冰柜里待了一个下午,戴着手套写故事大纲)”可知,团队通过亲自体验寒冷来更好地理解冷血角色的感受。故选C。 【2题详解】 词句猜测题。 根据第四段“Each time a screening flopped, the team tore the story apart and started again.(每次试映flopped,团队都会把故事拆开重新开始)”以及后文“Giving up every draft felt like cutting off a piece of my heart(放弃每一份草稿都感觉像是割掉了我心里的一块肉)”可知,每次试映失败,团队都会把故事拆开重新开始,所以flopped意思是“失败”。故选B。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。 根据最后一段“On November 26, 2025, when the finished film lit up the theater, Howard quietly slipped into the back row. Watching kids cheer for a snake who saves Judy, he whispered, “Welcome home.” The city that once existed only in sketches had grown, and so had its builder.(2025年11月26日,当完成的电影照亮剧院时,霍华德悄悄溜进了后排。看着孩子们为拯救朱迪的蛇欢呼,他轻声说:“欢迎回家。”曾经只存在于草图中的城市已经成长起来,它的建造者也成长了起来)”可知,霍华德看到自己的作品成功上映,孩子们为电影中的角色欢呼,他感到自豪和感动。故选A。 【4题详解】 主旨大意题。 根据第二段“In 2020 he and long-time partner Jared Bush locked themselves in a tiny story room at Disney Animation. Index cards covered every wall: some showed Nick and Judy on new cases; others pictured reptiles (爬行动物) who had never appeared in the city.(2020年,他和长期合作伙伴贾里德·布什把自己锁在迪士尼动画的一个小故事室里。每面墙上都贴满了索引卡:有些是尼克和朱迪的新案子;另一些则是从未在这座城市出现过的爬行动物)”以及后文内容可知,文章主要讲述了《疯狂动物城2》漫长且富有挑战性的创作过程。故选B。 六、应用文写作(浙江天域全国名校联盟2026届高三英语试题·2026年4月) 假定你是李华,你观看了一所英国学校举行的中国传统体育表演的视频。请你在线上留言板上写一则评论,内容包括: 1.观看感受;2.提出建议。 注意: 1.写作词数应为80左右;2.请在答题卡的相应位置作答。________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【参考范文】 I recently watched the video of the traditional Chinese sports performances held at your school, and I was absolutely fascinated. As a native Chinese, I was amazed to see how accurately you performed arts like Tai Chi and shuttlecock kicking. The energy and respect your students showed towards our culture truly touched my heart. It was not only entertaining but also educational. I could feel the strong cultural exchange happening through the screen. The video was well-edited, and the traditional music in the background created a perfect atmosphere. It made me proud to see my heritage being celebrated so far away. For future videos, may I suggest adding a brief introduction to each sport? Explaining the history or rules briefly would help viewers better understand the cultural significance behind the performances. Thank you for sharing this wonderful experience. I look forward to seeing more from your school! 学科网(北京)股份有限公司1 / 10 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $ Unit 4 Stage and screen 词汇 一、阅读词汇: 1. n.报复,报仇 2. n.王子 3. n.(乐器的)弦 4. adj.(声音或动作)夸张的 5. n.(演戏等时的)做手势(或其他示意动作) 6. n.鞭子 7. n.直体后空翻 8. adj.令人印象深刻的,特别吸引人的 9. n.芭蕾舞剧,芭蕾舞表演 10. n.喜剧 11. n.纪录片 12. n.(电视连续剧或广播连载节目中的)一集 二、写作词汇: 1. 这部小说的英文版本 2. 平静的女声 3. 拍他的手 4. 站在悬崖边上 5. 一阵悲痛 6. 阅读大量诗歌 7. 绝对令人吃惊 8. 一定会被我们的温馨派对打动 9. 一部电影的情节 10. 一种便宜且高效的交通工具 11. 在很大程度上 12. 睡觉姿势不舒适 三、词汇变形: 1. n.运动,动作→move v.移动;挪动 2. transform v.使改观,使变形,使转化→ n.转化;转换;改造;变换 3. universe n.宇宙,天地,万物→ adj.普遍的,一般的→ adv.普遍地,一般地 4. incredible adj.难以置信的→ adv.难以置信地 5. adj.精力充沛的,充满活力的→energy n.精力,活力,能量 6. emotion n.强烈的情感→ adj.情绪的,易激动的→ adv.感情上,情绪冲动地 7. anger n.愤怒,怒火→ adj.愤怒的,生气的→ adv.愤怒地 8. combine v.(使)结合,(使)组合→ n.结合;联合体 四、拓展词汇 1. n. 全体演员 2. n.(戏剧、电影)一幕;场景 3. n. 戏剧;戏剧性场面 4. n. 电影原声配乐 5. n. 戏服,演出服装 6. adj. 戏剧的;激动人心的 7. n. 观众,听众 8. n. 表演,演出 9. n.(剧情的)紧张气氛 10. v. 改编(剧本、小说) 五、熟词生义 1. 熟义:n. 边缘 生义:v. 徐徐移动;使尖锐 2. 熟义:n. 线,细绳 生义:n.(乐器)弦;一连串;v. 悬挂,串起 3. 熟义:n. 小块土地 生义:n.(电影、戏剧)情节;v. 密谋 4. 熟义:n. 火鸡 生义:n.(电影、戏剧)失败之作 5. 熟义:v. 逃跑,逃离 生义:v. 被遗忘;逃过(注意) 6. 熟义:n. 版本 生义:n.(某人的)说法,描述 7. 熟义:adj. 原先的,最初的 生义:adj. 原创的,独创的 写作 句型 1.Having seen quite a few productions of Hamlet and read the play many times,I was full of confidence — until the Peking Opera came to town! 译文:   2.The voices themselves sounded really unique — some of the female voices were so high that I was sure they could break glass! 译文: 3.Perhaps,one day,readers of F.

The two main characters are Jake Sully, played by Sam Worthington, and Neytiri, played by Zoe Saldana. Clones named Avatars are sent to Pandora Planet to persuade people there to leave the planet so that human beings can exploit a rare mineral. Jake is sent there to control his Avatar. However, he comes across Neytiri and they fall in love with each other. At last he and the people there work together to defeat human beings and send them back to the earth. 3D technology and the beautiful natural scenery are the two highlights of the film. The message of the film is simple — human beings should protect nature and live in harmony with it. 易错点01 so...that/such...that 【助记口诀】 名前 such,形副 so; 多多少少(many/much/few/little)也用 so。 【结构拆解】 so…that… so + 形容词/副词 + that so + 形容词 + a/an + 可数名词单数 + that so clever a boy such…that… such + a/an + 形容词 + 可数名词单数 + that such a clever boy such + 形容词 + 可数名词复数/不可数名词 + that such clever boys / such clean water 【错因辨析】 易错点 1:混淆中心词 ❌ He is so a kind man that everyone likes him. ✅ He is such a kind man that everyone likes him. 错因:中心词是名词 man,不能直接用 so;so 顺序必须是 so+adj.+a/an+n. 易错点 2:many/much/few/little 误用 such ❌ There are such few mistakes in his homework. ✅ There are so few mistakes in his homework. 错因:表 “多少” 的限定词 many/much/few/little 前面固定搭配 so。 易错点 3:分不清形容词后有无名词 ❌ The film is such moving that I cried. ✅ The film is so moving that I cried. 错因:moving 是形容词,后面没有名词,直接用 so 修饰形容词。 易错点 4:little 双重含义陷阱 little(少的)→ so little water little(小的)→ such little children such little children = 这么小的孩子(little 是形容词 “幼小的”,不表数量) 【对点训练】 1.

Central to its success was Julie Taymor, the theatre, film and opera director and designer whose unique vision helped the musical spring into life on stage — proving that theatrical versions of Disney movies could not only be hugely profitable, but could do so while being artistically innovative in their own right. But when Disney initially approached her, Taymor hadn’t actually seen the Lion King. “I thought, well, why not, let’s go look at the movie,” she recalls. “And I was really taken.” The challenge of adapting an epic, wide-screen story excited her: how, she recalls wondering, would you put hundreds of African grassland animals on stage? The answer was by embracing a distinctly theatrical approach: masks and puppetry (木偶).”I went through every animal: okay, we’ve got a giraffe. I’ll put the puppet neck on top of the head of the dancer, but you’re going to see the dancer’s face…” remembers Taymor. Her designs allowed the audience to see the mechanics of how each character is made. “You can see Simba’s emotion on the actor’s face, while a mask on top of his head reminds you that this is, in fact, a lion. There is no attempt to hide the human being behind the masks or inside the puppet,” she says, a technique she called the “double event”. “I wanted to do what theatre does best,” recalls Taymor. “Film hides the strings: we know it’s fake, but we’re pretending that it’s really there. Whereas in the theatre, we will enjoy seeing a little puppet of a boat, and a big ocean of silk... The audience is not played down to — they’re brought into the game.” The how was a hit — and a new kind of musical was born. 1. What does Taymor believe theatre does best? A. Hiding its technical strings. B. Pretending everything is real. C. Competing with film visually. D. Inviting the audience into the game. 2. How did Taymor solve the stage challenge? A. By using advanced digital effects. B. By hiding the actors completely. C. By employing masks and puppetry. D. By reducing the number of animals. 3. What does the “double event” technique do? A. Hides the human actor entirely. B. Shows both the character and the actor. C. Uses only realistic animal costumes. D. Focuses solely on the puppet’s movement. 4. What is the passage mainly about? A. Techniques of film making. B. The success of Disney movies. C. The history of musical theatre. D. A director’s creative stage adaptation. Passage 2(甘肃省兰州市城关区兰州市第五十一中学2025-2026学年高二上学期期末英语题B篇) Byron Howard, one of the chief directors of Zootopia Series, still remembers the day in 2016 when audiences first stepped into the all-animal city. “We had painted a world without humans, but full of human problems,” he says. Yet the moment the film ended, fans asked, “What happens next?” That question kept echoing in Howard’s mind for years. In 2020 he and long-time partner Jared Bush locked themselves in a tiny story room at Disney Animation. Index cards covered every wall: some showed Nick and Judy on new cases; others pictured reptiles (爬行动物) who had never appeared in the city. “We wanted a bigger world, not just a bigger case,” Howard explains. Between cups of cold coffee they finally found the clue — why were reptiles absent from the first film? Answering that became the emotional engine of the sequel (续篇). To feel what their cold-blooded characters might experience, the team once spent an afternoon in the studio’s walk-in freezer, writing story outlines with gloves. “Our teeth chattered, but the jokes got warmer,” Bush laughs. The next five years became a cycle of creation and destruction. They drafted eight versions of the opening, built an underground jazz bar for lizards, and even designed a giraffe mayor who spoke so softly that no microphone could catch him. Each time a screening flopped, the team tore the story apart and started again. “Giving up every draft felt like cutting off a piece of my heart,” Howard laughs, “but the city deserved the best.” On November 26, 2025, when the finished film lit up the theater, Howard quietly slipped into the back row. Watching kids cheer for a snake who saves Judy, he whispered, “Welcome home.” The city that once existed only in sketches had grown, and so had its builder. 1. How did the team try to better understand the feelings of cold-blooded characters? A. Ask fans for suggestions. B. Read scientific reports. C. Experience the cold in person. D. Turn to experts for help. 2. What does the underlined word “flopped” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Succeeded B. Failed C. Shone D. Changed 3. From the last paragraph, we can infer that at that moment Howard was ______. A. Proud and moved. B. Nervous and uneasy. C. Tired but relieved. D. Excited yet regretful. 4. What’s the text mainly about? A. Byron Howard’s great contributions to Disney movies. B. The long and challenging creative process of Zootopia 2. C. The reasons why Zootopia 2 was a big hit among audiences. D. The interesting experience of the team designing reptile characters. 六、应用文写作(浙江天域全国名校联盟2026届高三英语试题·2026年4月) 假定你是李华,你观看了一所英国学校举行的中国传统体育表演的视频。请你在线上留言板上写一则评论,内容包括: 1.观看感受;2.提出建议。 注意: 1.写作词数应为80左右;2.请在答题卡的相应位置作答。________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网(北京)股份有限公司1 / 10 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $
