The famous director of a big and expensive movie planned to film a beautiful sunset over the ocean, so that the audience could see his hero and heroine in front of it at the end of the film as they said good-bye to each other forever. He sent his camera crew(摄制组)out one evening to film the sunset for him.
The next morning he said to the men,“Have you provided me with that sunset?”
“No, sir,”the men answered.
The director was angry.“Why not?”he asked.
“Well, sir.”one of the men answered, “we're on the east coast here, and the sun sets in the west. We can get you a sunrise over the sea, if necessary, but not a sunset.”
“But I want a sunset!”the director shouted.“Go to the airport, take the next flight to the west coast, and get one.”
But then a young secretary had an idea.“Why don't you photograph a sunrise,”she suggested,“and then play it backwards. It'll look like a sunset.”
“That's a very good idea!”the director said. Then he turned to the camera crew and said,“Tomorrow morning I want you to get me a beautiful sunrise over the sea.”
The camera crew went out early the next morning end filmed a bright sunrise over the beach in the middle of a beautiful bay (海湾). Then at nine o'clock they took it to the director.“Here it is, sir.”they said, and gave it to him. He was very pleased.
They all went into the studio (摄影棚).“All right.”the director explained.“Now our hero and heroine are going to say good-bye. Run the film backwards so that we can see the‘sunset’behind them.”
The“sunset”began, but after a quarter of a minute, the director suddenly put his face in his hands and shouted to the camera crew to stop.
The birds in the film were flying backwards, and the waves on the sea were going away from the beach.
1.Which of the following statements is NOT true?
[ ]
A.The crew had to follow the secretary's advice.
B.If you want to see a sunrise, the east coast is the place to go to.
C.The camera crew wasn't able to film the scene the first day
D.The director ordered Ms crew to stop filming the“sunset”.
2.The director wanted to film a sunset over the ocean because ________.
[ ]
A.it went well with the separation of the hero and the heroine
B.when they arrived at the beach it was already in the evening
C.the ocean looked more beautiful at sunset
D.it was more moving than a sunrise
3.After the“sunset”began the director suddenly put his face in his hands ________.
[ ]
A.because he was moved to tears
B.as he saw everything in the film moving backwards
C.as the sunrise did not look as beautiful as he had imagined
