Motion pictures are so much a part of our lives that it's hard to imagine a world without them.We enjoy them in theatres,at home,in offices,in cars and buses,and on airplanes.① For about 100 years,people have been trying to understand why this medium has so attracted us.Films communicate information and ideas,and they show us places and ways of life we might not otherwise know.Important as the benefits are,though,something more is at stake.Films offer us ways of seeing and feeling that we find deeply satisfying.They take us through experiences.The experiences are often driven by stories,with characters we come to care about,but a film might also develop an idea or explore visual qualities or sound textures.A film takes us on a journey,offering a patterned experience that engages our minds and emotions.② Films are designed to have effects on viewers.Late in the 19th century,moving pictures emerged as a public amusement.They succeeded because they spoke to the imaginative needs of a broad-based audience.All the traditions that emerged-telling fictional stories,recording actual events,animating objects or pictures,experimenting with pure form-aimed to give viewers experiences they couldn't get from other media.The men and women who made films discovered that they could control aspects of cinema to give their audience richer,more engaging experiences.Learning from one another,expanding and refining the options available,filmmakers developed skills that became the basis of film as an art form.③The popular origins of cinema suggest that some common ways of talking won't help us much in understanding film.Take the distinction between art and entertainment.Some people would say that blockbusters(大片) playing at the multiplex are merely"entertainment",whereas films for a narrower public-perhaps independent films for festival fare,or specialized experimental works-are true art.Usually the art/entertainment split carries a not-so-hidden value judgment:art is high-brow,whereas entertainment is superficial.Yet things aren't that simple.As we just indicated,many of the artistic resources of cinema were discovered by filmmakers working for the general public.During the 1910s and 1920s,for instance,many films that aimed only to be entertaining opened up new possibilities for film editing.As for the matter of value,it's clear that popular traditions can promote art of high quality.Cinema is an art because it offers filmmakers ways to design experiences for viewers,and those experiences can be valuable.④ Sometimes,too,people treat film art as opposed to film as a business.This split is related to the issue of entertainment,since entertainment generally is sold to a mass audience.Again,however,in most modern societies,no art floats free of economic ties.Novels good,bad,or indifferent are published because publishers expect to sell them.Painters hope that collectors and museums will acquire their work.True,some artworks are funded through taxes or private donations,but that process,too,involves the artist in a financial transaction(交易).Films are no different.Others are funded by patronage or public moneys.Even if you decide to make your own digital movie,you face the problem of paying for it-and you may hope to earn a little extra for all your time and effort.The crucial point is that considerations of money don't necessarily make the artist any less creative or the project any less worthwhile.Money can corrupt any line of business (consider politics),but it doesn't have to.In Renaissance Italy,painters were commissioned by the Catholic church to illustrate events from the Bible.Michaelangelo and Lenonardo da Vinci worked for hire,but it would be hard to argue that it hurt their artistry.Here we won't assume that film art prevents entertainment.We won't take the opposite position either-claiming that only Hollywood mass-market movies are worth attention.Similarly,we don't think that film art rises above commercial demand,but we also won't assume that money rules everything.Any art form offers a vast range of creative possibilities.Our basic assumption is that as an art,film offers experiences that viewers find worthwhile.66.Where should the sentence"It doesn't happen by accident."be put in the passage?___A.①B.②C.③D.④67.Which of the following statements about film is TRUE?___A.Hollywood films are usually far more appealing.B.Film offers a wide variety of creative possibilities.C.Films are made in the hope that consumers will pay to see them.D.When watching films,viewers feel controlled by film designers.68.The writer uses the examples of Michaelangelo and Lenonardo da Vinci to___.A.indicate that money is unlikely to corrupt artistryB.show that money doesn't necessarily destroy artistryC.prove that money cannot buy everything in the field of artD.suggest that money is an important concern even for famous artists69.According to the writer,film should___A.avoid concentrating on popular traditionsB.focus on artistry rather than entertainmentC.provide the audience with something worthwhileD.earn enough to pay for the developers'time and effort70.Which of the following can be the proper title for the passage?___A.Film:art or businessB.Art or entertainmentC.Film offers us experiencesD.Money doesn't rule everything.

  • The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator. Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding. [共5题](1)What kind of manager is needed in present international business and foreign investment? [本题2分]A. The man who represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation. B. The man with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. C. The man who is wealthy and impersonal. D. The man who can negotiate with his foreign counterparts.

  • The Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, is perhaps the most popular set of novels of the modern era. With seven books and many successful films to its name, the series has gathered about 15 billion dollars in sales. How did the series become so popular? The reason can be broken down into several areas.The first book in the series was rejected 12 times before it was picked up by Bloomsbury—a small publisher in England. So receiving this contract was Rowling's first step to success. However, getting a book contract does not ensure the success of a book. The story was soon loved by children and adults alike. In light of this, Bloomsbury Publishing published a second version of the books with “adult” (less colorful and more boring) book covers. This made it easier for a full range of ages to enjoy the series.Another factor that worked like a charm was that the publisher and Rowling herself, through the books, conducted midnight releases, promotions, and pre-ordering more readers. Customers who feared that their local bookstore would run out of copies responded by pre-ordering over 700,000 copies before the July 8, 2000 release.What does the underlined word “releases” (Para. 3) mean?A. The activity that frees or expresses energy or emotion.B. The announcement about the book’s publishing information.C. The sales of books that is available only at midnight.
