The use of the word imitation（模仿） 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（犯罪） 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 on 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 hanged．I remember a film in particular in which the hero who was imprisoned had escaped by electrocuting（通电触死） his guard,the technique of doing this being shown in detail．This was the kind of scene which we could cut for these reasons．
In films for young people and adults we always tried to keep off the screen the details of criminal techniques,such as how to open a locked door with a piece of hard plastic or how to open a safe;if we were consulted（请教） before production,I used to advise that the details should not be shown．When I gave talks in prisons about film checking I had full support for this,since fathers who were in prison for criminal offences did not want their children to get on crime．
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 by only natural sound．．．one of the most brilliant film sequences（连续镜头） of all time．I remember our discussion at the time．We thought that the robbery was finished only with the use of advanced and obviously expensive equipment and that only the most 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．
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 see on the screen
D．it is dangerous to imitate what they see on the screen
What is the writer’s attitude（态度） towards the film in which the hero had escaped by electrocuting the guard?
A．The writer likes it very much．
B．The writer is strongly against it．
C．The writer thinks the film has some value．
D．The writer does not show his/her attitude．
All the following statements about“Rififi”are true EXCEPT______．
A．that the robbery shown needs experience and skills
B．that some very good tools were used in the robbery
C．that the film showed the technique in detail
D．that the technique of the robbery was not imitated
It can be inferred from the passage that______．
A．it is hard for children to tell the differences between real life and the imaginary
B．only people in prison support film checking
C．only children imitate what they have seen on the screen
D．the writer used to advise the details of crime should be shown

口算小状元口算速算天天练系列答案Scientists are worried that an asteroid(小行星) will possibly hit the earth in 2036. If scientists are right, planet earth is 24 years away from a major disaster.
Scientists have been monitoring the progress of a 390-metre-wide asteroid ever since it was discovered last June. They have announced that it could hit the earth, causing huge damage, in 2036.
NASA estimates that the impact from the asteroid named after Apophis and ancient Egyptian demon(魔鬼) would release more than 100,000 times the energy released in the nuclear explosion over Hiroshima. Thousands of square kilometers would be directly affected by the explosion. The whole planet would see the effects of the dust released into the atmosphere.
This is the worst possible scenario(情景) of any asteroid in recorded history.
Having more than 20 years’ warning of possible impact might seem plenty of time. But scientists insist that there is actually very little time left to decide.
Luckily, however, they aren’t short on ideas for deflecting the asteroid. The favored method is also probably the easiest—throwing a spacecraft at the asteroid to change its direction. The European Space Agency plans to test this in the next decade.
One idea that seems to have no support from astronomers is the use of explosive, although this sounds more likely to the public or Hollywood producer.
At present, scientists are trying to make a better estimate of how much time we have, through more observations.
In spring of next year, there will be another chance for radar observation of Apophis. This will help astronomers calculate the orbits of the asteroid more accurately.
If, at that stage, they can’t rule out an impact with the earth in 2036, the next chance to make better observations will not be until 2016, then 2029.
“If we wait until 2029 and the worst—case scenario turns out to be true, it would seem unlikely that we’d be able to do anything about 2036,” warns Prof Fitzsimmons.
1.What does the underlined word “deflecting” most probably mean?
|
A．making it smaller. |
|
B．observing it clearly enough. |
|
C．dividing into pieces. |
|
D．changing its direction. |
2.According to the scientists’ observation, _______.
|
A．the asteroid named Apophis will explode in 2036. |
|
B．the asteroid named Apophis might hit the earth in 2036. |
|
C．the asteroid named Apophis is 24 years old. |
|
D．there is plenty of time to decide the way we deal with the asteroid. |
3.What is the impact from Apophis if it hits the earth?
|
A．It will damage Hiroshima. |
|
B．Thousands of square kilometers would see the effects of the dust released into the atmosphere. |
|
C．It might be the worst damage caused by asteroids in recorded history. |
|
D．The whole planet would be directly affected by the explosion. |
4.It can be inferred from the text that _____.
|
A．Hollywood producers will explode Apophis to avoid its hit. |
|
B．There are only two chances for scientists to make better observations if they can’t grasp the chance next year. |
|
C．NASA plans to throw a spacecraft at Apophis to change its direction. |
|
D．It is supportive from astronauts that we explode the Apophis. |
