There are very many times I have been disappointed by a film of a book I love. So maybe highly regarded books do not always make good films. It is safe to say that great movies may be made from not particularly good books.The source material may be anything from classic novels, short stones, comic books and stage plays, as well as nonfiction such as biography and autobiography, even those written by ghostwriters. All can work well, but why do many adaptations and indeed remakes fail with both cinema audiences and critics? A key question is obviously how close to the original the film is. Since a typical film is only around two hours long, it becomes a question of what to leave out, and how to script the dialogue. 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” Another problem area is the cast. Whether suitable actors are found or not can mean the difference between success and failure. Readers of the book use their imaginations to visualize characters and have very definite ideas about how characters look and sound. This is where I think many film adaptations fall down.Some books are just too difficult to film for technical reasons, although movies like The Life of Pi are changing this perception. The impact of CGI technology has had a huge impact on the movie industry and allowed the previously unfilmable to become a reality. Sometimes authors are very involved in the process and many may even be the screenwriters. This can actually be a bad thing because they may be too close to the material and find it difficult to adapt. At other times they are not the screenwriters, and there are instances where writers have been very unhappy with the film versions of their work. Roald Dahl and Stephen King are examples of this. Even more extreme was novelist JD. Salinger who made sure no film versions of his popular novels could ever be made. In this situation, it is clear viewers will not be disappointed.篇章導(dǎo)讀:本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。許多導(dǎo)演瞄準(zhǔn)小說(shuō)市場(chǎng),將熱門小說(shuō)改編成電影后卻票房慘淡,這是為什么?1In what situation adaptations from books to films possibly satisfy the audiences?AAdaptations of lower expectation from audiences.BAdaptations of popular books.CAdaptations of good books.DAdaptations of books that audiences love.答案:A推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段第一句中的“but expectations can be high when a film of a favourite book is made”和第一段最后一句可知,期望值太高,會(huì)導(dǎo)致電影很失敗,所以降低觀眾的期望值可能會(huì)使觀眾對(duì)電影滿意。故選A。2Novelist JD. Salinger is mentioned in the last paragraph in order to _.Atell us how disappointed the audiences areBshow that many authors are involved in the process of making filmsCprove that authors may not necessarily be good screenwritersDshow some writers are against the idea of making books into films答案:D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段第三句可知,在最后一段中提到了小說(shuō)家塞林格,目的是為了表明一些作家反對(duì)將書制作成電影的想法。故選D。3Which of the following presents the correct structure of the passage?IIntroduction CPCentral Point PPoint SpSubpoint CConclusion答案:B推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容可知,本文開頭提出疑問(wèn),為什么改編自小說(shuō)的電影會(huì)失敗。之后分三個(gè)原因進(jìn)行分析,最后進(jìn)行總結(jié)。故選B。4What is the purpose of the passage?ATo argue that good books should be adapted to films.BTo persuade the audiences to accept the adaptations from books to films.CTo explain the reasons why many adaptations from books to films failed.DTo inform that adaptations should be based on various kinds of books.答案:C主旨大意題。根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容可知,本文講述的是為什么許多改編自書籍的電影最后失敗了。故選C。讀后續(xù)寫閱讀下面短文,根據(jù)所給情節(jié)進(jìn)行續(xù)寫,使之構(gòu)成一個(gè)完整的故事。Once, when I was a teenager, my father and I were standing in line to buy tickets for the circus (馬戲). Finally, there was only one family between us and the ticket counter.This family made a big impression on me. There were eight children,_all probably under the age of twelve. You could tell they didn't have a lot of money.Their clothes were not expensive, but they were clean. The children were wellbehaved, all of them standing in line, twobytwo behind their parents, holding hands. They were excitedly talking about the clowns, elephants, and other acts they would see that night with their brothers or sisters in a low voice.One could sense they had never been to the circus before. It promised to be highlight of their young lives. The father and mother were at the head of the pack, standing proud as could be. The mother was holding her husband's hand, looking up at him as if to say, “You are my knight in shining armor.”He was smiling and responding in pride, looking back at her as if to say, “You got that right.” The ticket lady asked the father how many tickets he wanted. He proudly responded, “Please let me buy eight children's tickets and two adult tickets so I can take my family to the circus.”The ticket lady gave the price. The man's wife let go of his hand. Her head dropped, and his lips began to shake. The father leaned a little closer and asked, “How much did you say?”The ticket lady again quoted the price. The man didn't have enough money.How was he supposed to turn and tell his eight children that he didn't have enough money to take them to the circus?Actually we were not wealthy in any sense. So I understand how the kids would feel. I felt sorry for them.注意:1所續(xù)寫短文的詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右;2至少使用5個(gè)短文中標(biāo)有下劃線的關(guān)鍵詞語(yǔ);3續(xù)寫部分分為兩段,每段的開頭語(yǔ)已為你寫好;4續(xù)寫完成后,請(qǐng)用下劃線標(biāo)出你所使用的關(guān)鍵詞語(yǔ)。Paragraph 1:Seeing what was going on, my dad put his hand in his pocket, pulled out a $20 bill and dropped it on the ground.

Then he picked it up and tapped the man on the shoulder and said, “Excuse me, sir, this fell out of your pocket.” The man turned around and saw the money. He knew what was going on, he looked straight into my dad's eyes, took my dad's hand in both of his, squeezed tightly onto the $20 bill, and with his lip shaking and a tear running down his cheek, he replied, “Thank you, thank you, sir. This really means a lot to me and my family.”Paragraph 2:That day my father and I went back to our car and drove home without any tickets. We didn't go to the circus that night. When I asked dad why he did so, dad said, “My child, it was a desperate, heartbreaking and embarrassing situation for a father. Surely he wasn't begging for a handout, but he reminded me of my father, when I was young.” He paused for a while, as if wandering in his memory. “We should appreciate what we have obtained from life and seize every opportunity to help others. We didn't go to the circus tonight, but we didn't go without anything. Now, who wants an ice cream?”- 6 -
