6 . It’s currently December and Christmas is almost here. And what better way to spend time with your loved ones than sitting down to watch some classic Christmas movies? Listed below are four films that will make you laugh, cry or both this festive season.
The Grinch（2000）
This is a Christmas must-watch and one of Jim Carrey’s best performances. It was also originally a children’s book written by Dr Seuss, which I would recommend reading! It’s the story of a green monster who wants to ruin Christmas, but who in the end discovers the power of love and generosity. I promise it’s a great film with plenty of laughs along the way.
Love Actually（2003）
While this is not a personal favourite of mine, people in the UK absolutely love this film. It has a number of stars, featuring actors and actresses such as Hugh Grant, Emma Thompson and Alan Rickman. It might be a little difficult to follow as there are lots of different sub-plots, so I recommend watching a dubbed version（配音版）in your native language.
Home Alone（1990）
This film is one of my favourite films of all time and I would watch it all year round if I could. It tells the story of a boy, Kevin, who is left alone in his house when his large family forget to take him on vacation with them. While the family are away, burglars（小偷）try to rob the house and Kevin must protect his home by setting traps. The trips, falls and traps will have you laughing out loud as you watch a 10-year old boy outsmart two grown men.
Miracle on 34th Street（1994）
You can’t have Christmas in an English-speaking country without watching this film. It’s not funny like Home Alone or The Grinch, but it is incredibly touching. It’s about a man who claims to be Santa, but nobody believes him except a lawyer and a little girl.

7 . As the country’s first large-scale serial documentary shot in 8K ultrahigh-definition. The Forbidden City, a 12-episode documentary, has recently run on Beijing Satellite TV, which is in part as a celebration of the 601st anniversary of the founding of the imperial (帝王的) palace during the Ming and Qing dynasties (1368—1911).
The documentary gathered 12 first-class singers to respectively render (演唱) theme songs for each episode, creatively interpreting milestone historical chapters with meaningful music.
Wu Zhiyong, the chief producer and chief director, recalled that he visited the Forbidden City for the first time when he was a youngster, feeling it a pity upon discovering that the guide he followed offered a flawed introduction to the site.
“Since then I had wished for many years that I could make a documentary to retell the real history of the Forbidden City in detail. Luckily with the Palace Museum’s support, our crew managed to learn a lot of knowledge, interviewing many historians and shooting the most beautiful, tranquil moments of the imperial palace.” said Wu.
The crew, consisting of nearly 150 people, had spent around three years to conduct investigations, polishing the script with the help of more than 30 experts from multiple departments of the Palace Museum, covering a wide range of areas including ancient architecture, drawing and calligraphy, court wares and royal history.
Aside from the Forbidden City, the crew made up of three camera teams to simultaneously work on different sites also traveled to dozens of cities, such as Nanjing and Suzhou in Jiangsu province as well as Fuzhou, Xiamen and Quanzhou in Fujian province, to obtain more content about Chinese history related to the stories happening inside the great palace.
1. What’s the purpose of shooting this documentary?| A．To further the historic study. | B．To entertain the viewers. |

| C．The theme songs of the episodes are performed by a famous singer. |
| D．The documentary was created by the historians of the Palace Museum. |
