The room gets dark. The audience becomes quiet. The music begins. The movie starts.
Most people have enjoyed the experience of watching a movie in a theater, In the US, it is common to see parents watching cartoons with their children, or a group of male friends watching an action movie together. The most popular time to see a movie is on weekend nights.
People often need snacks when they see a movie. They often eat popcorn - slightly salty or slightly sweet. Theaters also sell candy and chocolate. But some people bring their own snacks to save money.

Though she is already one of the most famous pop stars, you've probably never heard of the 25-year-old singer-songwriter named Stefani Germanotta. That's only because almost everyone knows her by her stage name, Lady Gaga.
Born in New York in 1986, Lady Gaga enjoyed music, singing and dancing from an early age: she started playing the piano when she was only four years old. And she loved performing in musicals in high school. At the age of 17, she went to a school of art, but later left because she wanted to become a professional singer as soon as possible.
She became a global star with her first album (专辑) The Fame in 2019 and followed it in
2009 with The Fame Monster. In 2019, she released (发行) a single, Born This Way, which broke the record for the quickest sales for a piece of music on iTunes, with one million downloads in only five days.
Most music critics (指责家) say that what makes Lady Gaga's music stand out is her strong voice and also the strong electric rhythm of her songs, which make them popular in nightclubs.
More original than her music, perhaps, is the way she looks. A big part of her image is her unusual clothes. Her strangest piece of clothing probably has been a dress made out of sliced (切片的) meat, which she once wore in 2019.
What has made Lady Gaga quickly become famous is the way she has used social media. She has over 30 million Facebook friends, for example, and almost 10 million followers on Twitter. ( ) 36. Why did Lady Gaga leave the school of art?
A. Because she didn't like art at that time.
B. Because she didn't want to become a singer.
C. Because she had to leave school to make money.
D. Because she wanted to become a professional singer quickly.

Parents who spent more time with their children played important roles in improving children's exam results, according to researchers in America who had studied on more than 10,000 teenagers across the US.
Toby Parcel, a teacher at a university, said, "Our study shows that parents need to know how important they are. They should check their children's homework, attend school events and let their children know that school is important." The researchers studied two different groups of students. In the first group, students didn't go to good schools but their families were supportive of their education and involved (到场) in their school life. While students in the second group went to good schools but their families were not supportive of their education and not involved in their school life. The exam results showed that students in the first group did much better than those who were in the second group.
The researchers collected information on many things, including parents' involvement in homework, school events and students' exam results. They found that the most important things in the relationship between parents and children were trust, good communication and active involvement in a child's academic life. So the researchers advised parents to improve parenting skills.
But many parents have to work all the time and have less time to stay with their children or talk with them. Then what can the government do? The researchers advised the government to allow different working ways. "If parents are allowed to choose where or when to work, they will be able to attend school meetings and get involved in activities with their children without
affecting their jobs," said one of the researchers.

multiplication was not only hard for him.
