Today, more and more popular novels, both modem and old, are being turned into films in Hollywood. Yet why are some of these films so successful, while others seem to lose the main idea of the book completely?
Characters
One of the most important things in a film is having characters that the audience can relate to(与…有某种联系). It does not matter what job they do, where they live, or even whether they are good or bad. However, the audience must be able to recognize something of themselves in them. __75___,no one wants to spend two hours watching peoplethey do not like or understand. Actors
When you read a book, you often build a picture of the ___76__ in your mind. For example, if you have imagined a character as short and dark-haired, it can be quite a surprise when you go to the cinema and see a tall actor with blond hair. Producers often feel the need to __77__ famous actors, but they should not do this unless these actors are completely right for the story. When they put the wrong person in the film, they often ruin(破坏）the effect of the film as a whole.
Learning __78___
Books can be read over a long period of time. So writers can look very closely at every little detail, and spend a lot of time thinking about the best descriptions. People producing films have to make them move more __79__ , or they are afraid that their audience will get bored. That’s why the most important is learning which parts should stay, which should be cut from the film.
Endings
The biggest problem with some films is that they change the ending to make it happier, and this may let part of the audience feel pleased. To many people, however, it loses the meaning of the book. A film needs to stay true to the main idea of a book, even if it makes some people _80__. There are fewthings worse
than seeing a book you love turned into a terrible film.
75 A) After all B) By the way C)In addition D) At last
76 A) famous actors B)main characters
C) beautiful houses D)attractive views
77 A) choose B) become C)report D)meet
78 A) where to start B) when to finish C) how to act D) what to cut
79 A) easily B) carefully C) quickly D) clearly
80 A) frightened B) tired C) disappointed D) unlucky
C. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words(在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给)（14分）
We all remember seeing hitchhikers(搭便车者). They stood by the side of the road, thumb sticking out, waiting for a lift(免费搭车). But hitchhiking is getting rare nowadays. What killed it? S____81____is often mentioned as a reason. Movies about hitchhiking killers and real-life crimes have stopped many drivers from picking up hitchhikers. No single women picked me
up on my journey to Manchester. This fact shows people’s fear: a large, strangely dressed man is thought to be a d____82____ person.
But the reason may be more complex(复杂)：hitchhiking happens where people don’t have cars and transport service are p___83___. Plenty people still hitchhike in some countries. Perhaps the rising level of car ownership in the UK.makes the few hitchhiking people look strange. Why can’t these people a____84___ cars? Why can’t they take the bus or the train? Three-quarters of the UK.Population have cars; many of those that have no cars are quite old. So the potential(潜在的) hitchhiking population is small. Yet on my way to Manchester, I got a lift from several people. My t___85___ proves that it’s still possible to hitchhike. Those who picked me up i____86___ a lawyer, a retired doctor, a tank commander, a worker, a man who lives in a lonely farmhouse and a couple living up in the mountains. Most people just wanted to do someone a favour; a few said they were so surprised to see a hitchhiker that they couldn’t help stopping.
The future of hitchhiking most likely lies with car-sharing which is organized over the Internet. But for now, you can still stick your thumb out (a____87____, I didn’t do much of that.
I preferred to hold up the sign of the place I wanted to go) and people--- wonderful, caring, sharing, unafraid people---- will stop.
In the U.K., with its cheap buses and reasonable railway service, I don’t think I’ll from a habit of hitchhiking.
D. Answer the questions(根据短文回答下列问题)
My day starts just like all the other days. I left for the train station at 7:30 a.m. to arrive at work by 8:30,” Just another day,” I thought.
I didn’t know why but for some reason when I got on the train that day, it was unusually full. I sat down in the only seat beside a man who had his head down and seemed to bo lost in his thoughts. Shortly after the train left I found myself wondering wh at could be so important that the man didn’t even see me.
I tried to forget about it. However, for some strange reason this “inner voice” kept asking me to talk to this man.
At last I made up my mind and thought of an excuse to ask him a question. When he raised his head, I could see that he must have been really sad as he had red eyes and still had rolling down the side of his face.
We talked for about 20 minutes and he seemed to be feeling
better. As we were leaving the train, he thanked me politely for spending the time talking with him. I never found out what made him so sad, but was glad I listened to the “voice” that day.
Several weeks later, I noticed a letter on my desk. It was from the man I met on the train, thanking me for saving his life. In it he explained that with no hope he shouted to God that if God really cared about him he would send someone to stop him from taking his own life. In his eyes I was that someone sent my God.
So next time, you know why you should follow your “inner voice” to talk to a friend, a relative and even a stranger.
