Work in pairs, with one person selling tickets and the other as the person who wants to buy the tickets.

Now begin to write your e-mail. Then some of you will be asked to present your e-mails to theA. Read the passage about the importance of transportation and fill in the chart.Have you ever thought about how important transportation is to the world? Without transportation modern life could not exist. We have come to depend on the availability (可用性) of three principal kinds of transportation.Automobiles, railroads, trucks, and pipelines are the principal means of land transportation. Ships, barges, and submarines (潜水艇) form the chief means of water transportation. Without our principal means of air transportation, the airplane, we would have to slow down our lives and commerce. Nearly every major city in the world provides some form of public transportation. The most common form of transportation is the bus. Buses have been in use in major cities since approximately 1900. They provide transportation service on innumerable (无数的) routes from the city center to the suburbs and even to outlying rural areas that surround the city. Subways are mostly found in larger cities, such as New York, London, Beijing, Paris, Sydney, and Tokyo. The subway is an underground system of high speed trai ns. The world’s first system was built in London, and trains have been operating there since 1890. Subway trains move more quickly and efficiently than buses. They, too, are inexpensive and help solve city traffic problems. The one drawback of subway trains is that they are often crowded and noisy. Taxicabs are more expensive than buses or subways, but they deliver you to the exact location you want in the shortest time possible. Taxis are convenient if you are in a hurry or if you are taking along a number of suitcases or packages. And as an added attraction, many cab drivers will tell you stories about their adventures as taxicab drivers or even the details of their life stories. If you ever visit a major city in another country, you probably have no trouble getting around. You will quickly find out about city bus routes and schedules, and about crowds on subway trains. Like many people, of course, you may come to the conclusion that the most inexpensive and reliable form ofB.

You will listen to two radio programmes discussing the early days of film, and then read a web page about film facts. You are expected to use all of the information to complete a film quiz. Before listening, you can look through the questions first.1. Listen to the tape.TapescriptHost: Today on History’s Greatest Inventions, we are discussing films, which were once called ‘moving pictures’!Guest: Well, that isn’t such a strange name. That’s what films are——moving pictures. What our eyes see as movements are really just the small differences between thousands of still photographs.Host: Really?Guest: Yes, every film is made of frames, and each frame is just a photograph. We first started viewing them as connected films back in the 1880s. William Friese-Green was the first man to record and then play back what we now think of as a film. He made his film in Hyde Park, London, and later watched it in his home. O n the twenty-eighth of December eighteen ninety-five, two Fr enchmen, the Lumière brothers, made a film and presented it to paying audiences. They are often considered the ‘fathers of the modern film industry’Host: These first films were not like the ones we see today, were they? Guest: No. One big difference is the speed of the filming—at first, cameras were operated by hand, and it was hard to keep the film moving at the same speed all the time. When we see these old films today, the actors look like they are moving too fast. Another big difference is that old films had no sound.We now refer to them as silent films. When people went to see them, there would be a piano player, or even an orchestra in the theatre to provide music.The first ‘talking film’ or film with sound was shown in New York in nineteentwenty-seven. It was called The Jazz Singer. The first words ever heard ina film were, ‘wait a minute. Wait a minute. You ain’t heard nothin’yet.’Audiences were so excited they even stood up in the theatre and applauded!One other thing you will notice if you watch an older film is that they were all in black and white. One interesting fact is that while we know the first words spoken on film, and where the first film was made, we have no idea what the first color film was. Many people try to claim that one film or another was the first one made in color, but there is no way to prove who is right!AnswersA 1. The Lumière brothers.3. Moving pictures.4. London.5. The speed, the sound and the color of the film.8. In the theatre.9. The Jazz Singer.10. No idea.3. Listen to another radio programme in Part B. This time you will listen to some information about Hollywood, and you can use the information to answer some of the remaining questions on the quiz. I’ll play the recording twice i f it is necessaryTapescriptHost:We’ve invited a Hollywood expert to talk to us about how things work in Hollywood. Welcome, Alex.Alex: Thanks. Well, it all began in early nineteen hundred. The first studio that opened there was called Nestor Studios, and it was followed by many others, all around the same time.Host: Can y ou explain what a studio actually is?Alex: Of course. We used the word ‘studio’ to describe a company with sound stages. The word refers to both the company and the place where it makes its films. In the past, studios hired actors and then told them what films they could work on. Now, a studio will ‘buy’ the idea for a film, and then hire the individuals who will make the film.Host: Oh, that makes it much clearer.Alex: Do you know that most of the films made throughout the world are made in Hollywood? Three quarters of the films seen around the world are made in the United States, and about ninety-nine percent of them are made in Hollywood. Host: How long does it take to make a film?Alex: It can take up to a few years, if you include all the steps. At the beginning is development. Someone thinks of an idea and sells it to a studio, or someone at a studio comes up with an idea. Then people have to decide if it will make money, and who should write it., then of course, someone writes a script.When those is done, and sometimes while the script is being written,pre-production starts. Actors must be hired and locations found for filming.The filming itself is called productions, and takes very little time, sometimes only a few weeks. After that is the post-production stage. This stage can take a very long time. It includes the editing and adding sounds and special effects. After that is done, the film is complete and preparations are made to send it out. Someone has to decide where it will be shown first and what companies will be allowed to sell it. Finally, it is sent out and we get to see it!4. I’ll check the answers as a class to see which questions you have alrea dy found the answers to after listening to the recording in this part.Answers7 The company with sound stages and the place where the company makes its films.11 A few years.12 Pre-production stage and post-production stage.Make sure that you have no difficulty in understanding the passage.Answers2 said, ‘Cinema… has no commercial future,’6 $10,000,00013 20th Century Fox, Universal Studios, Warner Bros and MGM.Skills building 2: listening for emphasisThis part is designed to help you pay attention to the words or information emphasized in a question to answer it exactl y. In the Grammar and usage section of this unit, we learnt how to emphasize some parts of sentences by adding some words or using certain sentence structures. Are there any other ways that we can emphasize some words or information, especially when we are speaking? Sometimes we stress the words we want to emphasize. Now let’s go over Skills buildi ng 2.Step 2: asking and answering questions about Chinese filmsIn this part, you should work in pairs to conduct an interview about Chinese films. You are expected to practice the speaking skills you have learnt in Skills building 2.1. Go over the instructions so that you know what to do in Step2. Then read all the questions and answers and make sure that you know what you are going to do.2. Work in pairs to do this role-play activity, asking and answering questions about Chinese films. When asking questions, you should emphasize the words in bold. The student who is answering questions should repeat the emphasized words. After you finish asking and answering these questions, you should switch roles. In this way,Sample answersS=student D=dire ctorS: I have entered a speech competition about the film industry. I am doing research on the Chinese film industry and want to talk about it in my speech. I know you were a director before you retired. May I ask you some questions abut Chinese films? D: Certainly.

Do you know when and where the first film was made? It was in the 1880s, more than 120 years ago, that William Friese-Green recorded and then played back what we now think of as a film. He made his film in Hyde Park, London, and later watched it in his home. The fathers of modern film are thought to be the Lumiere brothers from France. The first films ever made were silent. The audiences could hear different kinds of music played by a piano player or an orchestra in the theatre. It was not until in 1927 that the first ‘talking film’ or film with sound was shown in New York. The title of it was The Jazz Singer. Just imagine how audience was so excited that everyone in the theatre stood up and applauded.In 1896, film was introduced to China. The first Chinese film ever made, Conquering Jun Mountain, was made in 1905. The first film made only by Chinese was The Difficult Couple, which was made in 1913. Then, about 18 years later, the first ‘talking film’ was made in China in 1931. The title of the film is The Songstress, Red Peony.Although the first cinema that opened in the USA was in Pennsylvan ia, Hollywood is well known for film-making. Three quarters of the films seen around the world are made in the USA, and about ninety-nine percent of them are made in Hollywood. The companies there make films in their studios. Do you know the name of the first studio that opened in Hollywood? It was Nestro Studios, which is now a part of Universal studios.。
