The use of the word imitation reminds me that we ought to make some more comments on the risk of people imitating what they see on the screen in the way of crime or violence.First there was always a risk of children acting out scenes which could be dangerous.For example, I remember a woman who was head of a middle school telling me that she had happened to look out of her window when the children were in the playground and had seen them putting a small boy on a chair with a rope round his neck and the rope over the branch of a tree; fortunately she was in time to get there before the child was hung.I remember a film in particular in which the hero who was imprisoned had escaped by electrocuting (电死) his guard, the technique of doing this being shown in detail.This was the kind of scene which we could cut for these reasons.
Every time I gave a talk in a prison someone used to mention the French film Rififi made by Jules Dassin in 1954.This remarkable film showed in great detail a robbery of a jeweller's shop, the robbery lasting about half an hour and being backed only by natural sound, one of the most brilliant film sequences (连续镜头) of all time.I remember our discussions at the time.We thought that the robbery experienced and skilled criminals could possibly imitate it; we believed therefore that it was relatively safe.When talking in prisons some years later I learned that there had been several robberies in which the techniques had been copied, so perhaps we were wrong.
1.The writer thinks that________.
[ ]
A.the details of the criminal technique should be kept
B.the details of the crime should not be shown on the screen
C.children should not imitate what they saw on the screen
D.it was dangerous to imitate what they had seen on the screen
2.What was the writer's attitude towards the film in which the hero had escaped by electrocuting the guard?
[ ]
A.The writer kept the same opinion
B.The writer was strongly against it.
C.The writer thought the film had some value.
D.The writer did not show his/her attitude.
3.Parents in prison agreed to film checking because ________.
[ ]
A.they did not want their children to follow suit (学样)
B.the crime on screen could be imitated without difficulty
C.they were forced to do it
D.they thought this was the best way to guarantee film quality
4.All the following statements about Rififi are true EXCEPT________.
[ ]
A.that the robbery shown needs experience and skills.
B.That natural sound could be heard in the film
C.That the film showed the technique in detail
D.That the technique of the robbery could not possibly be imitated
5.It can be inferred from the passage that________.
[ ]
A.it is hard for the children to tell the differences between real life and the imaginary
B.only the people in prison supported film checking
C.only children imitated what they had seen on the screen
D.the writer used to advise the details of crime should be shown

It may be a discussion of the way to 2 in good health, or 3 about how to behave and conduct oneself in society. If I cut the front article, the opposite one is likely to 4 damage, leaving out half of it or keeping the text 5 the title. Therefore, the scissors(剪刀)would 6 before they start, 7 halfway done when I find out the 8 result.

In fact that is what 15 is like: we are often 16 with the two opposite sides of the thing which are both desirable like a newspaper cutting. It often occurs that our attention is drawn to one thing only 17 we get into another. The 18 may be more important than the latter and give rise to a divided mind. I 19 remember a philosopher’s remarks: “When one door shuts, another opens in life. ”So a casual(随意的) 20 may not be a bad one.
1. A. front B. same
C. either D. opposite
