8.From boy to man
Growing up on-screen for a decade as Harry Potter,22-year-old Daniel Radellif has had to deal with typecasting(角色定位) his whole career.However,in a new release called The woman in Black,the successful child actor finally escapes J.K.Rowling's hero by taking on the lead role in a classic ghost story.
The movie,which hit Chinese cinemas on Sept.20,tells the tale of a widowed lawyer named Arthur Kipps (Radcliffe) who is sent to a remote village in the north of England for a late client's affairs.There,he discovers the town's tragic past-children die after they see a mysterious woman dressed in black.To clear things up,he decides to stay alone in an old house,which is completely cut off from the mainland at high tide.
His fears grow when he sees a woman in black looking at him from the window and hears the sound of a pony and trap in difficulty,followed by the screams of a young child.Kipps decides he must find a way to break the cycle of horror after his son is threatened by the mysterious woman.
The story pulls out every old,dark house cliché(老套路) going:demonic(恶魔的) dolls,rocking chairs,and the ghostly black-cloaked woman herself.However,it has become one of this year's biggest box office winners in the UK when it was released there in February.
British movie critic Jamie Russell thinks what makes it so different,is how character-driven it is and how Radcliffe makes it count.
"The woman in Black works because of Radcliffe,not in spite of him,"he said."Radcliffe's face convinces you that Kipps knows what it is to have loved and lost forever."
There is not much conversation.Director James Watkins's gambled on Radcliffe's acting.He was not disappointed."It's an absolute joy doing the slow push in on Dan,reading his thoughts and letting the camera drift closer and closer into his eyes."He told British magazine Total Film.
For the former Potter star who has longed for a career away from Hogwarts,this ghost movie is a step in the right direction.
"It's mainly about working hard and proving to people you're serious about it,and stretching (倾注全力) yourself and learning."Radcliffe told British online newspaper The Huffington Post.
And he understands fame is fleeting."The line that has made the most lasting impression on me was by[US writer]William Goldman.He said something like,'Stars come and go,only actors last'."he told the news website.
(Note:Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)

78.The movie The woman in Black is abouthow Arthur Kipps deals with a mysterious woman in black.
79.Why does Kipps have to find a way to break the cycle of horror?Because his son is threatened by the mysterious woman
80.How The woman in Black is successful is that it has beenone of the year's biggest box office hits.
81.What does The woman in Blackmean mean for Radclliffe,the former Harry Potter starIt's a breakthrough for him./?

分析 文章通过《黑衣女人》见证主演哈利•波特的演员丹尼尔•雷德克里弗的成长,从大男孩成长为大男人.

解答 78.how Arthur Kipps deals with a mysterious woman in black 主旨大意题.文章第二段介绍了电影的主题.从The movie…tells the tale of a widowed lawyer named Arthur Kipps(Radcliffe)who is sent to a remote village…There,he discovers the town's tragic past-children die after they see a mysterious woman dressed in black.To clear things up…
79.Because his son is threatened by the mysterious woman.细节理解题.第三段这句话Kipps decides he must find a way to break the cycle of horror after his son is threatened by the mysterious woman.可知,Kipps必须找到方法打破这个魔咒,因为她的儿子收到威胁.
80.one of the year's biggest box office hits/winners in Britain  细节理解题,第四段开头讲到这部电影剧情很老套,it has become one of this year's biggest box office winners in the UK when it was released there in February,但是非常受欢迎,体现在自从上映以来已经成为英国票房获胜者.
81.It's a breakthrough for him./It's a step in the right direction.细节推理题.从这句话For the former Potter star who has longed for a career away from Hogwarts,this ghost movie is a step in the right direction可以看出,这部电影对于Radclliffe来说非常重要,正是由于这部影片让他成功从哈利波特转型成功.

13.It is surprising that eating three meals a day--breakfast,lunch and dinner--has been a custom only since 1890.Before this time,they only had two meals a day--breakfast and dinner.
In the 16th century,breakfast was only to break one's fast (随便吃一点).But 200years later it had became a large meal,not just for family,but for numbers guests as well.It was a social event.It began at 10a.m.and lasted until 1p.m.Then breakfast began to be less popular.It became,instead,a lighter meal and was taken at a much earlier hour.By 1850it had been pushed back to 8a.m.and became a family meal.
Dinner,however,went to the other way.In the 16th century it was eaten at 11p.m.Years later,it had moved to the early afternoon,then to 5p.m.By 1850dinner time had reached 7p.m.Lunch is a recent idea.It first appeared as a snack to fill the gap(间隙)between breakfast and dinner.

31.English people did not have lunchB.
A.after 1890   B.until 1890      C.in 1890    D.by 1850
32.The underlined sentence in Paragraph 3means thatC.
A.dinner didn't go there with breakfast
B.dinner is the same with breakfast
C.dinner is different from breakfast
D.dinner took the same way with breakfast
33.The passage is mostly aboutD.
A.the history of breakfast             B.what people eat for dinner
C.what people eat for breakfast         D.the history of lunch
34.The passage leads the readers to believe thatD.
A.after 1890 people couldn't eat the three meals a day

17.When Jeff Sparkman draws his cartoon superheroes with colored pencils,he often has to ask other people to tell him what color his masked men turned out to be because he's color-blind.Now,a new smart phone application (app) can help him figure out what colors he's using and how the picture looks to most everyone else.
The DanKam app,available for iPhone and Android for 2.99dollars,is an application that turns the vague colors that one percent of the population with color-blindness sees into the"true"colors as everyone else sees them.In America,an estimated 32 million color-blind Americans-95% are males-can soon have their life improved.
"DanKam takes the stream of data coming in through the phone's camera and changes the colors slightly so they fall within the range that people who are color-blind see,"developer Dan Kaminsky told CNET.He came up with the idea after watching the 2009film Star Trek with a color-blind friend.
It was then that he got to know more about colorblindness like its varying types and degrees.A vast majority,for instance,have trouble seeing red or green due to a genetic defect(遗传缺陷).Blue-yellow colorblindness,however,is rarer and develops later in life because of aging,illness or head injuries,etc.He started experimenting with one of the most common representations of points in the RGB color model.What the DanKam app attempts to do is to clean up the color space of the image or video signal so that colors can be visible to those suffering from viewing problems."You can adjust the app to fit your needs.There is a range and not everyone who is color-blind sees things the same."Says Kaminsky.
Sparkman,a copy editor at CNET,tried out the app and was pleased with the results."It would be useful for dressing for a job interview,"he said.But using it for his art is"the most practical application."It worked well on LED and other lights on electronic gadgets,which means Sparkman can now identify the power light on his computer display as green.

61.According to the first two paragraphs,we can know that DanKamA.
A.is designed to help people with colorblindness
B.can turn vague colors into real ones
C.is a phone used to help drawing pictures  
D.appeared in the movie Star Trek
62.How does DanKam's app work?D
A.It puts LED and other lights on electronic gadgets.
B.It shows common representations of points in the RGB color model
C.It checks color-blind people's types of degrees of colorblindness.
D.It changes the colors so that color-blind people can see them.
63.It can be inferred from the passage that colorblindnessB.
A.cannot be cured by any methods   
B.is not necessarily inborn disease
C.is more commonly seen in women  
D.makes people unable to tell any colors
64.The underlined word visible in Paragraph 4is closest in meaning toD.
A.recognizable    
B.enjoyable    
C.adjustable    
D.portable
65.Which of the following is NOT included in the things that DanKam helps Sparkman with?B
A.Choosing clothes.
B.Playing computer games
C.Drawing his pictures.
D.Handling electronic gadgets.
