I was a single parent of four small children, working at a low-paid job.

TWENTY-FIVE years ago director Stephen Spielberg captured the hearts of Western audiences with his family classic．E．T．Now his Hong Kong director Stephen Chow is trying to do the same trick in China．

Chow's latest movie CJ7(《长江七号》)，in cinemas now，is a heart-warming story about a poor migrant worker(外来务工者) and his son．When a strange alien enters their lives，father and son learn a lesson about the value of family．Chow hopes his movie will help to make family films more popular in China．

Family films have been the main part of the Hollywood market for the last 40 years．They have given audiences movies like E．T．, Indiana Jones and Jurassic Park．However, there are few of these movies in China, where expensive history films are more popular．

A family film is not simply a children's movie．It is a film that is not only suitable for children, but appeals to the whole family．

According to Raymound Zhou，a famous film critic，these films are rare in China because“very few families go to the cinema together”．Because of this，there is little demand for movies that appeal to the whole family．　 　　　

However, in the West，it is common for the family to sit down and watch a movie together．Tim Bridges, from London，says：“I love it at Christmas when I sit down and watch a movie with my family．” 　　　　

All family films contain similar messages about being honest、remaining positive and learning there is more to life than money．According to the American movie reviewer，Dave Johnson, this is because “When parents watch a movie，they want their children to be learning good values”． 　　　　

Just like when the alien in Spielberg's E．T．phones home to make contact with his family, Chow will hope Chinese audiences are tuned in and ready to receive his family movie message．

63．Which of the following can replace the underlined part in the last paragraph?

    A．understand what others are thinking  B．make telephones

    C．go to the cinema                     D．sing songs　 　　　

64．What is the family film，according to the passage?

    A．A kind of film that is about history．

    B．A kind of film in which the characters are animals．

    C．A kind of film that is meant for both children and adults

    D．A kind of film that is about families　 　　　

65．What is implied but not stated directly in the passage?

    A．Families in China should go to the cinema at Christmas．

    B．It's good for children to watch family films．　 　　　

    C．Chinese families don't like family films．

    D．The movie CJ7 has nothing in common with E．T．

66．It can be inferred that in the future，_______．

    A．Chinese families will go to the cinema together　 　　　

    B．there may be more family films in China　　

    C．making family films in China is not easy

D．family films are about love

“How are you?” is a nice question. It’s a friendly way that people in the United States greet each other. But “How are you?” is also a very unusual question. It’s a question that often doesn’t have an answer. The person who asks “How are you?” hopes to hear the answer “Fine.”, even if the person’s friend isn’t fine. The reason is that “How are you?” isn’t really a question and “Fine.” isn’t really an answer. They are simply other ways of saying “Hello!” or “Hi!”.

Sometimes, people also don’t say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks, “Do you agree?”, the other person might be thinking, “No, I disagree. I think you’re wrong …” But it isn’t very polite to disagree strongly, so the other person might say “I’m not sure …”. It’s a nice way to say that you don’t agree with someone.

People also don’t say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person says “I’ve to go now.” Often, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse, “Someone is at the door.” “Something is burning on the stove.” The excuses might be real, or it might not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn’t want to talk any more, but it isn’t polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn’t hurt the other person.

When they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people often don’t say exactly what they are thinking. It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it’s also a part of the game of language.

60. When a person in the United States asks “How are you?”, he or she wants to hear “___________”

A. How are you?      B. Hello!       C. I don’t know.        D. Fine.

61. When a person wants to disagree with someone, it is polite to say “___________”

A. You’re wrong. I disagree.           B. I’m not sure.

C. I’m sure I disagree.                D. No, I disagree.

62. When a person says “I’ve to go now. Someone is at the door.”, he or she may be __________.

A. giving an excuse                  B. hurting someone’s feeling

C. talking to a person at the door        D. going to another place

63. One of the rules of the game of language is probably “_________”

A. Always say what you mean.               B. Don’t disagree with people.

C. Never say exactly what you’re thinking.     D. Be polite.
