Aunt Jane is now well over seventy, but she is still a great cinema-goer. The cinema in our town closed down years ago and sometimes she has to travel twenty miles or more to see a good film. And once a month at least she goes up to London to see     1     (late) foreign films. Of course she could see most of these films on television, but the idea does not attract her. "It isn't the same," she says. "For one thing, the screen's too small. Besides, I like going to the cinema!"

However, one thing which has always puzzled us is that     2     Aunt Jane has lots of friends and enjoys company, she always goes to the cinema alone. We discovered the reason for this only recently-from Mother. "It may surprise you to lean that Aunt Jane wanted to be an actress when she was young, "she told us. "She used to wait outside film studios all day, just     3     (appear)in crowd scenes. Your aunt has probably appeared in dozens of films. Sometimes she did not even know the name of the film they     4     (make). Therefore, she couldn't go to see     5     in the film at the cinema!

"All the time, of course, she was looking for a small part in a film. Her big chance came     6     they started to make a film in our town. Jane managed to meet the director at a party and he offered her     7     role as a shopkeeper. It really was a very small part, but it was an important moment for Jane. Before the great event, she rehearsed for days. In fact, she turned the sitting-room into a shop! We all had to help, going to and out of the shop     8     she could remember her words perfectly And     9     the actual day she was marvelous. Jane thought that this was the beginning of her film career!

"Unfortunately, in the end, they did not include the shop scene in the film. But nobody told Jane! When the film first appeared in London, she took all her friends to see it. And of course she wasn't in it! It was a terrible blow! She stopped     10     (go)to film studios and gave up the idea of becoming an actress. She still loves the cinema, as you all know, but from that day she has always gone alone!"

Last week, my friends and me went to watch Jay Chou’s performance in Guangzhou. There are crowds of cheerful fans there, many of who came from other cities. Jay began his performance with one of his most famous song. We all cheered and shouted out his name, but some even cried with joy. When Jay began to sing the seventh song it called Sunny Day, it started to rain. Therefore, the concert was not interrupted and we got even more exciting in the rain.

4 . Chinese audiences seemed not to have been satisfied with the third season of the highly anticipated food documentary A Bite of China.

Even though the series has maintained high viewership ratings since its comeback last week, much higher than other programs aired at the same time, the ranking on Douban, a social networking website featuring films, literature and events, slipped to 4.2 out of 10, as of Tuesday, compared with 9.3 and 8.4, respectively, for the first two seasons.

Picky viewers complain that some of the narration is not accurate, while others pinpoint misleading content. At the same time, food blogger @barbara questioned whether it is appropriate to give a close-up shot of the poisonous plant Nandina(南天竺)in a food program.

A Bite of China, which debuted in 2012, became hugely popular nationwide for its quality introduction of some rarely-known and mouth-watering domestic cuisine. In the new show, however, watchers are not satisfied with “irrelevant” food references, such as lipsticks made of Chinese traditional medicine and martial arts master.

The first episode introduced a hand-made iron frying pan from east China’s Shandong province, which prompted thousands of Chinese Internet users to buy one from China’s leading e-commerce website Tmall in the next few days. Sales of the pan at “Zhensanhuan” surged 6,000 times compared with a year ago, according to Beijing Youth Daily.

In response to overwhelming criticism and questions, A Bite of China production crew responded on Weibo that they seek innovation despite the risks following the first two phenomenal seasons.

“It is unavoidable to make comparisons with the first two, and some audiences may not accept the changes,” the crew said. “We explore the culture and civilization behind food, and give food a historic touch. That’s why we feature culinary(烹饪的)tools, feast and rituals, as well as a healthy diet to show Chinese wisdom and philosophy, which has not been shown in any food programs before.”

1. Why does the passage mention Nandina?

A．Because some of the narration is not accurate.

B．Because it may be improper to give a close-up shot of a poisonous plant.

C．Because it is misleading content.

D．Because it is not attractive at all to most picky viewers.

2. Which of the following elements leads to viewers’ dissatisfaction with the new show?

A．some mouth-watering domestic cuisines

B．food-unrelated items

C．some rarely-known cuisines

D．the increasing sales of the pan at “Zhensanhuan”

3. According to its production crew, what is unique to ‘A Bite of China III’?

A．It makes comparisons with the first two episodes.

B．It tells the story of some martial arts related to food.

C．It receives overwhelming criticism and questions from audience.

D．It focuses on cooking tools, rituals and healthy eating.

4. What is the best the title for the passage?

A．'A Bite of China III' Draws Criticism from Audiences

B．'A Bite of China III' Maintains High Viewership Ratings

C．'A Bite of China III' Changes for the Worse

D．'A Bite of China III' Explains its Purposes

5 . 阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。

As a general rule, a band may start as a group of high-school students     1     (share) the same interest in music. They may first practise their music in someone’s house. And then the musicians may get the chance to give     2     (perform) in pubs or clubs, for which they are paid     3     cash. As time goes by, they gradually become known to the audience and some even make records!

The Monkees,     4    , started in a different way. Of     5     (it) four members, only one was good enough and the other three just pretended     6     (sing) during the broadcasts. To be honest, it couldn’t     7     (call) a real band in the beginning. Anyhow, they succeeded and became so popular     8     their fans formed clubs in order to get more familiar with them.     9     (fortunate), the Monkees broke up about 1970.

6 . As we know, many teen celebrities(名人) feel and think that having a slimmer figure can do great good to them. But, does size really matter? Are teenage fans trying hard to become like their celebrity idols(偶像)? Do celebrities really have the power to influence people, especially teenagers?
For the longest time, many parents blame teen idols for influencing the way their kids act. Have you noticed how teens idolize the celebrities these days? Even, their personal affairs are being followed by kids these days. Take for example the case of Lindsay Lohan of Mary Kate Ashley. They are definitely famous teen stars. But, since they are trying to project an image to satisfy a lot of people in show business, their health and body suffer. Many kids are aware of this problem. But they are easily influenced by these celebrities to exercise and eat less.
It is a fact that the media, and especially famous teen celebrities, can influence people powerfully. But teenagers are easily influenced because teenage years are the period when our personality and identity developments take place. Teens watching TV shows and reading magazines are easily pulled into the dieting and harmful eating habits because the media have some ways to pull these acts. They use thin models and celebrities to endorse(做广告宣传) products or to star in an up-and-coming shows or movies. With fierce competition, celebrities are forced to eat less and do extreme exercise routines to get the roles or offers that come their way.
Living in today’s time and generation is a bit disturbing to a lot of parents. Media, especially as well as the celebrities, have a very powerful influence to drive teenagers to good or bad. It’s good that we can control ourselves to avoid bad things from happening. If not, parents should really be aware and guide their teens to determine what’s in and what’s out.
