牛津译林版高中英语选修八:Unit4Filmsandfilmevents_文化背景
A brief introduction of Harry PotterHarry James Potter is the title and the main character of J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter fantasy series. The books cover seven years in the life of the lonely orphan(孤儿) who, on his eleventh birthday, learns he is a wizard. He attends Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to learn magic. Under the guidance of the kindly headmaster Albus Dumbledore, Harry discovers that he is already famous throughout the wizarding world(巫师界), and that his fate is tied with that of Lord V oldemort, the universally feared Dark wizard who killed Harry's father and mother.Second to fourth booksIn the second book, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets《哈利·波特与密室》, Rowling pits Harry against Tom Marvolo Riddle, Lord Voldemort's "memory" within a secret diary which has possessed Ron's younger sister Ginny Weasley. When Muggle-born students are suddenly being petrified, many suspect that Harry may be behind the attacks, further alienating him from his peers. In the climax(高潮), Ginny disappears. To rescue her, Harry battles Riddle and the monster he controls that is hidden in the Chamber of Secrets. In the third book, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Rowling uses a time travel premise. Harry learns that his parents were betrayed(背叛) to Voldemort by their friend Peter Pettigrew, who framed Harry's godfather Sirius Black for the crimes, condemning him to Azkaban prison. When Sirius escapes to seek revenge, Harry and Hermione use a Time Turner to save him and a hippogriff named Buckbeak. But Pettigrew escapes, and an innocent Sirius remains a hunted fugitive.In the previous books, Harry is written as a child, but Rowling states that in the fourth novel, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, "Harry's horizons are literally and metaphorically widening as he grows older." Harry's developing maturity becomes apparent when he becomes romantically interested in Cho Chang, a Ravenclaw student. Tension mounts, however, when Harry is mysteriously chosen by the Goblet of Fire to compete in the dangerous Triwizard Tournament, even though another Hogwarts champion, Cedric Diggory, was already selected. It is actually Voldemort'selaborate scheme to lure Harry into a deadly trap. During the Tournament's final challenge, Harry and Cedric are teleported to a graveyard. Cedric is killed, and Voldemort, aided by Peter Pettigrew, uses Harry's blood in a gruesome ritual to resurrect Voldemort's body. When Harry duels Voldemort, their wands' magical streams connect, forcing the spirit echoes of Voldemort's victims, including Cedric and James and Lily Potter, to be expelled from his wand. The spirits briefly protect Harry as he escapes to Hogwarts with Cedric's body. For Rowling, this scene is important because it shows Harry's bravery, and by retrieving Cedric's corpse, he demonstrates selflessness and compassion. Says Rowling, "He wants to save Cedric's parents additional pain.” She added that preventing Cedric's body from falling into Voldemort's hands is based on the classic scene in the Iliad where Achilles retrieves the body of his best friend Patroclus from the hands of Hector. Rowling also mentioned that book four rounds off an era in Harry's life, and the remaining three books are another, "He's no longer protected. He's been very protected until now. But he's very young to have that experience. Most of us don't get that until a bit later in life. He's only just coming up to 15 and that's it now."。

of war,with the cruel injury to life and human nature war causes,how can we bring them a love of peace and objection to war?” asked the director with anger in his eyes.After Red Ri v er Valley and Lo v er’s Grief o v er the Yello w Ri v er,both of which star Chinese model and actress Ning Jing,Feng drew a satisfactory full stop to his war trilogy last month with Purple Sunset.The film tells a story which took place in 1945,at the very moment when World War Ⅱ was drawing to an end.A Chinese peasant and a Soviet woman soldier flee into a forest,where they seize a Japanese girl.They follow the girl in the hope that she will take them out of the forest,butinstead they arrive in a Japanese base.Humanity prevents them from killing the young,innocent victim of Japanese militarism.This humanity,the longing for peace and eagerness to survive,make the three unite.“If people are touched by justice,tolerance and unselfishness,I think I have achieved my goal,”Feng said.Feng admits that there are violent and bloody scenes in the film,such as tanks fighting and Japanese burning Chinese people alive,to show the cruelty of war.But that’s never his personal preference,he says.“Everyone who has watched my films can tell how much I detest war,” he said.“I wrote all the things for my war films by myself.Whenever I finished one,I felt as though I had suffered great pain.”Feng regards every one of his productions as an opportunity to learn about human nature and humanity.In spite of violent scenes which frighten and sicken the audience,a balance is sought with beautiful scenery.Just like the snowy mountains in Red Ri v er V alley and the grand plateau in Lo v er’s Grief o v er the Yello w Ri v er,a beautiful vast grassland appears in this film.“I used to study art and I appreciate beautiful things,” Feng said.“I believe that films should offer the audience a chance to enjoy beauty.”1.Director Feng Xiaoning shot war films because ________.A.he was deeply interested in such a topicB.he wanted to give the audience the painful experience of warC.he hoped to arouse people’s love of peace and objection to warD.he dreamed of becoming a worldfamous director2.A Chinese peasant and a Soviet woman soldier seized a Japanese girl so that ________.A.they could find the Japanese base easilyB.she could take them out of the forestC.they could kill her for revengeD.it would cause the Japanese militarism to give in3.The underlined word “detest” in this passage means “________”.A.hateB.likeC.fleeD.know about4.How many films are mentioned in the

got in the way.In fact,Jack moved clear across the country in pursuit of his dreams.There,in the rush of his busy life,Jack had little time to think about the past and often no time to spend with his wifeand son.He was working on his future,and nothing could stop him.Over the phone,his mother told him,“Mr.Belser died last night.The funeral is Wednesday.” Memories flashed through his mind like an old newsreel as he sat quietly remembering his childhood days.“Jack,did you hear me?”“Oh,sorry,Mom.Yes,I heard you.It's been so long since I thought of him.I'm sorry,but I honestly thought he died years ago,” Jack said.“Well,he didn't forget you.Every time I saw him he'd ask how you were doing.He'd reminisce(回忆)about the many days you spent over ‘his side of the fence’ as he put it,” Mom told him.“I loved that old house he lived in,” Jack said.“You know,Jack,after your father died,Mr.Belser stepped in to make sure you had a man's influence in your life,” she said.“He's the one who taught me carpentry.I wouldn't be in this business if it weren't for him.He spent a lot of time teaching me things he thought were important.Mom,I'll be there for the funeral,” Jack said.Busy as he was,he kept his word.Jack caught the next flight to his hometown.Mr.Belser's funeral was small and uneventful.He had no children of his own,and most of his relatives had passed away.The night before he had to return home,Jack and his Mom stopped by to see the old house next door one more time,which was exactly as he remembered.Every step held memories.Every picture,every piece of furniture...Jack stopped suddenly.“What's wrong,Jack?” his Mom asked.“The box is gone,” he s aid.“What box?” Mom asked.“There was a small gold box that he kept locked on top of his desk.I must have asked him a thousand times what was inside.All he'd ever tell me was‘the thing I value most’,” Jack said.It was gone.Everything about the house was exactly how Jack remembered it,except for the box.He figured someone from the Belser family had taken it.“Now,I'll never know what was so valuable to him,” Jack said sadly.Returning to his office the next day,he found a package on his desk.The return address caught his attention.“Mr.Harold Belser” it read.Jack tore open the package.There inside was the gold box and an envelope.Jack's hands shook as he read the note inside.“Upon my death,please forward this box and its contents to Jack Bennett.It's the thing I valued most in my life.” A small key was taped to the letter.His heart racing,and tears filling his eyes,Jack carefully unlocked the box.There inside he found a beautiful gold pocket watch.Running his fingers slowly over the fine cover,he opened it.Inside he found these words carved:“Jack,Thanks for your time!Harold Belser.”“Oh,My God!This is the thing he valued most...”Jack held the watch for a few minutes,then called his assistant and cleared his appointments for the next two days.“Why?” his a ssistant asked.“I need some time to spend with my son,” he said.36.Why did Jack think Mr.Belser died years ago?A.College and career prevented him from remembering Mr.Belser.B.Jack was too busy with his business and family to think about Mr.Belser.C.Jack was too busy realizing his dreams to think about Mr.Belser.D.His present busy life washed away his childhood memories.37.Jack's mother told him on the phone about Mr.Belser EXCEPT that ______.A.Mr.Belser often asked how Jack was doingB.Mr.Belser's funeral would take place on WednesdayC.Mr.Belser had asked for Jack's mailing addressD.Mr.Belser had pleasant memories of their time together38.Why did Belser send Jack his gold watch?A.Because he was grateful for Jack's time with him.B.Because he had no children or relatives.C.Because he thought he had to keep his word.D.Because Jack had always wanted it during his childhood.39.Why did Jack say he needed some time to spend with his son?A.He was very tired of his work and wanted to have a good rest.B.He had promised to spare more time to stay with his son.C.He had missed his son and his family for days.D.He came to realize the importance of the time with his family.40.Which of the following is the most suitable title for this passage?A.The Good Old Times. B.What He Valued Most.C.An Old Gold Watch. D.The Lost Childhood Days.Part ⅢWritingSection ADirections:Read the following passage.Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.Scientists,doctors and mental health professionals have been studying the connection between color and mood for years.Many now believe that colors can not only cause emotional reactions,but can also correct mood.Colors behave in three basic ways:active,passive and neutral(中和色的).Active colors are warm colors,including yellow,orange and red.These colors bring confidence.Warm colors can also bring cheerful attitudes.Yellows and golden colors work well in offices,kitchens and study areas.Reds heat up a room.Passive colors or cool colors make people calm,quiet and satisfied.Bedrooms,private areas and bathrooms are great places for blues and greens.Beige,gray and white are thought of as neutral colors.They help to put the focus on other colors or serve to tone down(使柔和) colors that might otherwise be overpowering on their own.You can easily change the look or feel of a room by making good use of different colors.Mixing and matching colors is an excellent way to balance color and emotion,and provide a welcoming feel for guests.To create a feeling of warmth and comfort in a room,use bright,warm colors like yellow,orange and red.These colors are good choices for rooms that appear cool due to limited sunlight.Yellow adds cheerfulness to dull rooms.You can add yellows to rooms which are not closely related to happy thoughts,such as kitchens and laundry room.In rooms where there's plenty of sunshine,cool colors can provide a calming environment.Sage greens and sky blues are prefect for bedrooms,playrooms and activity areas.Neutral colors,such pale gray,white and beige,send a peaceful message to your brain.It's not a coincidence that most doctor's offices,coffee shops and mental health centers are decorated in neutrals.To make your wall color choices better,pick out furniture that will provide a visual contrast.Cool colors make a room seem larger than it is and warm colors make rooms feel smaller.Title:The connection between 41.____Commonly

had to remind you how important it is to protect your skin from the sun.I know that applying sunblock every day can be tiresome,but it's 100% necessary unless you want to end up with wrinkles,dark blotches (斑点),or worse,melanoma(黑瘤).Here are three ways to keep in mind while you're outside in the sun.1.Use a broad-spectrum formulaThose two words tell you that the product protects your skin from both UV A and UVB rays.UV A rays cause wrinkles and can trigger melanoma and basal-and squamous-cell carcinomas(细胞癌).UVB rays cause sunburns and are also to blame for many cases of melanoma.2.Cover important spots firstApply sunscreen on the back of your neck,along your hairline,on your hands,ears,and on the soles (脚掌)of your feet (seriously!).And don't forget to shield your sensitive scalp(头皮) with a hat or a pretty scarf.As for the rest of your body,here's a great guide to putting on sunscreen right.3.Don't leave out your lipsLips are a prime skin cancer spot,so it's very important that

In the 1930s, a lot of people in the USA were out of work. Among these people was a man named Alfred Butts. He always had an interest in word games and so, to fill his time, he planned a game which he called “Lexico”. However, he was not completely satisfied with the game, so he made a number of changes to it and, in time, changed its name from “Lexico” to “Alph” and then to “Criss Cross”. He wanted to make some money from his new game but he didn’t have any real commercial(商业性的) success.In 1939, Butts happened to meet a man called Jim Brunot who showed an interest in the new game. The two men worked together on developing the game and in 1948 it was offered for sale in the United States under its new name—“Scrabble”.At first, it didn’t sell very well. In the first year it sold just 2,250 sets and by 1951 it had only reached 8,500 sets a year.Then, in 1952 the manager of Macy’s department store in New York, Jack Strauss, happened to play “Scrabble”while he was on holiday. He thought it was a wonderful game and, when he went back to work after his holiday, he insisted that Macy’s should stock(储备) the game and make an effort(努力) to call the public’s attention to it.As a result, “Scrabble”became a big success in the United States and it soon spread to Australia and then to other English-speaking countries.1.
