【题目】The Lion king musical theatre tickets in London

Read our original review of The Lion King

It’s one of the most beloved Disney films of all time, and for last two decades it’s been one of the main events of London’s West End. The magical, family-friendly stage version of The Lion King has been reigning supreme at the Lyceum Theatre since 1999, and shows no signs of quietening its roar.

If you’ve not seen the classic Disney film, that’s close to sacrilege - but don’t worry, we can fill you in. a young cub called Simba tries to come to terms with the cruel death of his father Mufasa, at the same time as learning about the responsibilities of adulthood and his destiny as a king. It’s a bit like Hamlet, but with singing animals (and a happier ending).

The musical is a must-see for any Londoner, whether you call the capital home or are just here for the weekend. The stunning visuals are pretty breathtaking whatever your age, but ingenious puppetry and intricate masks recreate the animal kingdom of Africa in a spectacle that your little lion clubs will never forget.

Did you know? Julie Taymor, the shows director, created a number of puppets and masks for the show. She used many different styles, but had one rule: the performer should never be hidden by the device so the audience could see the humanity of the characters as well as what each performer was technically capable of.

Where? Lyceum Theatre, 21 Wellington Street, WC2E 7RQ. Nearest underground stations are: Charing Cross, Covent Garden, Embankment, Leicester Square, Holborn and Temple.

Performance dates and times: The Lion King is currently booking until September 30, 2019. Performances are Tuesday-Sunday, with matinees at 2.30 p.m. on Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday, and evening performances at 7.30 p.m. (not Sunday). The running time of the show is two and a half hours with an interval.

1Where might this text probably come from?

A.A biography.B.A science fiction.

C.A history book.D.A magazine.

2How does the writer try to trick the readers into buying the ticket?

A.By giving details of the review.

B.By introducing a famous director.

C.By providing many time choices.

D.By showing the convenient transportation.

As the saying goes, chance favored the prepared mind. I learned this from one of my experience.

I was not chosen as member of the volleyball team of our school. Because of this, I decided to give up play volleyball. Luckily, my best friend stopped me but pointed out that it was my laziness and poor preparation which led to my failure. After that, I practiced playing volleyball on every day. When another tryout arrived, I was full prepared and tried my best. As a result, I was selected and became an important player on our school team.

Two head are better than one.This proverb means we can make things are easier by working with others, who shows the significance of cooperation.

Take my experience as example.Once we were given quite a complicated physics problem by our teacher but we were expected to work it out in any possible way. Considering that I was very good at identifying physical principles and my friend Joe was better at performing complexly calculation, we decide to work together . Magically ,we solved a problem efficiently and even were better than the top student choose to work alone.

This experience really impressed myself a lot. So always keep it in mind that cooperation not only contributes greater working efficiency but also explores our potential.
