When asked to list typical English gentlemen，for many，Colin Firth immediately comes to mind．

In his recent film，Kingsman：The Secret Service，the 54-year-old actor appears as elegant and violent super spy Harry Hart．One minute he’s calm and polite，and then in the next he’s skillfully violent and aggressive．For example，in one scene he says，“Manners maketh a man”，before severely beating up a group of villains(坏人)．Firth brings out the perfect mix of typical British style and humor through this performance．

Firth began appearing on English TV in the early 1990s，but it wasn’t until he played Mr Darcy，a charming upper class character from Jane Austen’s famous novel“Pride and Prejudice”，that Firth’s career really took off．His portrayal(形象)of the perfect fictional gentleman conquered millions of hearts，especially females’．

In many fans and critics’eyes，Firth has British good looks，British charm，and a gift for characters with a British sense of being reserved(矜持)．Movie reviewer Jason O’Bryan described Firth as“always befitting the calm and stiff-upper-lip British gentlemen character”．

However Firth doesn’t consider himself the authority on gentlemen．“I don’t necessarily approach every challenge like a perfect English gentleman spy．There are many aspects in my personality that are not consistent with someone like Harry Hart，”he said to Dialogue，an English—language show on CCTV News．

But let’s just take his words as another gentlemanly quality-modesty．After all，who might expect an Oscar-winning actor over 50 years old to learn to fight for his first action movie?

To prepare for Kingsman，Firth trained for three hours every day over six months．He broke a tooth and got bru ised everywhere，but took the damage as a symbol of his accomplishments．

In Dialogue，Firth said he had many other sides-he’s passionate about literature and literary research．However，to many of his movie fans, he is indeed a gentleman and excellent actor above a11 else.

1.The example given in Paragraph 2 is _____________．

A．to describe the character of Harry Hart

B．to introduce one scene of Kingsman

C．to prove Colin Firth a gentleman

D．to compare Colin Firth with Harry Hart

2.When did Firth come to be famous?

A．In the early 1990s．

B．After he played Mr Darcy．

C．When he was 54 years old．

D．During his childhood．

3.From the text we can infer ______________．

A．Colin Firth is violent and aggressive

B．Colin Firth has many sides in personality

C．Colin Firth has similar character to Harry Hart

D．Colin Firth has more male fans than females

4.Which of the following might be the best title for the text?

A．An authority on English gentlemen

B．A famous actor

C．A charming upper class character

D．A super spy

We all have some keys in life, some visible and others invisible

Crash. Shatter. Boom. Crash. Shatter. Boom. Smattering of silly dialogue. Pretty girl screams: “Dad!” Crash. Shatter. Boom. Crash. Shatter. Boom. Silly dialogue. “Dad!!!” Crash. Shatter. Boom.

What? Oh, sorry. We were falling into a trance there.

Which is, dear moviegoer, what may happen to you during Michael Bay’s Transformers: Age of Extinction, the fourth Transformers film and lasts 165 minutes, which is precariously (危险地) close to the three-hour mark that Bay undoubtedly will reach—by our sophisticated calculations, and at the current growth rate, with his sixth installment(集).

But let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Despite what you’ve just read, this film will likely be a massive hit because by now, if you’re buying a Transformers ticket, you surely know what you’re getting into, and you want more, more, more. And Bay is the Master of More.

Or just take it from the 11-year-old sitting next to me, who reserved any audible judgment—he, too was in a trance, though maybe from sugar intake—until the moment he saw a Transformer become a dinosaur. Overwhelmed by the pairing, he proclaimed, “That’s the sickest thing I’ve ever seen in my life.” It was as if peanut butter and jelly had been tasted together for the first time.

This time, there’s a whole new human cast. Most important, Mark Wahlberg has replaced Shia LaBeouf as well, Main Human Guy.

A significant part of the movie also takes place in China—clearly a nod to the franchise’s huge market in the country.

In any case, we begin in Paris, Texas, where Cade Yeager (Wahlberg), a struggling inventor, is desperatlely seeking a big discovery. He’s also a widowed dad, and super-protective (as the movie constantly reminds us) of his high-school daughter, Tessa (Nicola Peltz, blond and pretty and ineffective, though the one-note script does her no favors).

One day, Cade buys a rusty old truck. Examining it back home, he soon discovers it’s none other than Optimus Prime, the Autobot hero, seriously damaged.

As Cade works on fixing him up, his assistant, witty surfer-dude Lucas, has the dumb idea of calling the authorities. What he doesn’t know is that the government is plotting to destroy all remaining Autobots in favor of a man-made army of Transformers.

So now, it’s evil humans that pitted against the trustworthy Autobots. So much for gratitude. There’s also a subplot involving Tessa and her secret boyfriend, Shane (Jack Reynor, underused), whose Irish accent leads Cade to dismissively call him “Lucky Charms”—at least until the two bond in battle.

The obvious question: Is it too much for its own good? Bay is vey talented at all things visual. The 3-D works well and the robots look great. But the final confrontation (冲突) alone lasts close to an hour. At some point, you may find yourself simply in a daze, unable to absorb any further action into your brain.

1. What can be inferred from the first paragraph?

A. The girl can’t understand the movie she was seeing.

B. The girl felt scared about the movie she was seeing.

C. The movie the girl was seeing was very thrilling.

D. The girl couldn’t find her father.

2.What did the author mean by saying “… and you want more, more, more. And Bay is the Master of More.” in paragraph 4?

A. The audiences are hard to satisfy.

B. Bay is good at bring audience massive hit.

C. Only Bay knows how to produce massive hit.

D. By knows about the audience’s mind.

3.What is the main idea of the last paragraph?

A. The audiences don’t like the final confrontation.

B. The disadvantages of Transformers 4 are more obvious than advantages.

C. Putting into too much what the director is skilled at causes negative effect.

D. The director Bay only focuses on the 3-D works.

4.The tone of the passage as a whole can be described as ________?

A. serious B. ironic C. scholarly D. light-hearted

The famous American gorilla(大猩猩) expert Diane Fossey had a completely new way to study gorillas — she pretended to be one of them. She copied their actions and way of life — eating plants and getting down on her hands and knees to walk the way a gorilla does. It was a new relationship.

Diane Fossey was murdered in Rwanda in 1985 and her story was made into the popular film Gorillas in the Mist. It was a long way from King Kong, which is about a gorilla as a monster (a frightening animal), and helped to show a new idea: the real monster is man, while the gorilla is to be admired.

Today there are thought to be around 48,000 lowland gorillas and maybe 400—450 mountain gorillas in the wild. From the Congo in West Africa, to Rwanda and Uganda further east, they are endangered by hunting and by the cutting down of their forest homes.

Some time ago, I found in my letterbox a little magazine from the World Wide Fund for Nature. It had two photos side by side. One was of a young gorilla. “This is a species of mammal(哺乳类动物),”said the words below it. “It is being destroyed by man. We must save it for our own good.” The other photo showed a human baby. The words also read, “This is a species of mammal,” but then went on: “It is the most destructive(破坏性的) on earth. We must retrain it for its own good.”

1.The text mainly talks about _____.

A. Diane Fossey

B. the gorillas in Rwanda

C. the protection of the gorillas

D. the film Gorillas in the Mist

2.We can learn from the text that _____.

A. Gorillas in the mist was based Fossey’s experiences

B. Lowland gorillas live longer than mountain gorillas

C. King Kong showed us that a gorilla is admirable

D. Diane Fossey was murdered by a gorilla

3.What message can we get from the two photos in the magazine?

A. Gorillas are man’s close friends.

B. Both man and the gorilla need to be saved.

C. Young gorillas are as lovely as human babies.

D. Man should live peacefully with the gorilla.
