【题目】请阅读下面短文。并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。

The national box office set a record in 2017, almost 56 billion yuan, up 13 percent from 2016. Last year, there were 92 films whose revenue（收入）exceeded 100 million yuan each including 51 Chinese films. About 1.62 billion tickets were bought, up 18 percent year-on-year. In 2017, the Chinese film industry produced 798 dramas, 32 animation films and 44 documentaries in all. Fifteen films earned more than 1 billion yuan each at the box office, up from nine in 2016.

In the coming days, records will likely be broken and history will be made as China’s film industry appears to be on the turning point of a new era, industry insiders said. This year, the number of new film releases, box-office earnings, and even stock-market performance of shares listed entertainment companies and expected to be higher, they said.

Filmgoers’ reviews have had an increasingly significant impact on the box office more than other factors such as the participation of pop celebrities in pre-release promotions, a media professor said. Also, viewers are no longer getting influenced by big names alone. They don’t care whether the film is Chinese, Hollywood, European, or Indian, as long as it has substance（内容）. Even a low-budget film with little-known cast and crew could emerge as a hit, industry observers said.

Answer 1

【答案】China has witnesses a steady increase in the national box-office earnings in the past year. Meanwhile, filmgoers are becoming more and more rational when choosing a film to watch.

The increase in the box-office income can be attributed to a number of factors. Firstly, the quality of people’s life has improved so greatly that people attach more importance to their cultural and entertaining activities, one of which is watching films as a good choice. Besides, filming technology has advanced and more high-quality films made by different countries are on offer. People are eager to enjoy interesting stories or fantastic special effect in cinemas, know more about foreign cultures, and communicate with families or friends after watching. Moreover, people can seek much information on the Internet about the theme, cast and crew, and reviews and ratings from other filmgoers, so that they can choose films to watch more rationally.

In my opinion, with more investment in movie industry and efforts from great filmmakers and cast, the number of Chinese high-quality and famous movies will certainly increase. I am very glad to buy tickets and go to the cinema.
