9．The Lyceum Theatre
David Bateman is a huge fan of this theatre．"You cannot find a theatre with a more varied past，"he argues．At first a place for musicals，the Lyceum soon began to host a lot of different events．Then there were more changes and the theatre was used as a music hall before once again becoming a theatre．And it was during this period，in 1934，that Queen Elizabeth II saw her very first pantomime （童话剧） here!
The London Palladium
Felix Knight would be surprised if you hadn't heard of this very famous theatre in the West End．In the 1950s，millions of viewers across Britain would watch Saturday Night at the Palladium，a weekly variety show （杂耍表演） televised live from the theatre．Nowadays，the theatre hosts musicals such as The Sound of Music，but it also hosts a number of important events such as the British film awards in 2007．
The Globe Theatre
"People are likely to overlook the Globe Theatre because it's not in the West End，"says Jane Campbell．The theatre is a copy of the Elizabethan playhouse that was built in 1599and where Shakespeare's plays were written and performed．Every last inch of the rebuilt Globe is authentic （逼真的），even the fact that it is an open-air theatre．
The Piccadilly Theatre
For Mariella Clark，this theatre is her number one choice．Opened in 1928，it may not be the oldest theatre in the West End，but it is one of the biggest and has certainly made its mark---during its time as a cinema it actually showed the first talking movie ever!"I'd always thought that theatres put on plays or musicals from day one，"Mariella says，"so I was quite surprised when I first began t realise that they often have quite interesting histories．"

D．offers shows as well as events on stage

D．The Globe Theatre．
35．Who feels surprised at the history of his or her favorite theatre？A

8．Films provide more than just entertainment．For many people，watching English films is a way to develop language skills．While watching a film，you are immersed（沉浸在）in the language and can pick up new expressions that you might not find in a textbook．Some difficulties can arise when watching English films-for example，unfamiliar colloquial language or strong regional accents．With this in mind，here are my tips to help you make progress in English learning while enjoying the films．
Choose a film genre类型） that you enjoy．
If you like action films，watch an action film-for example Indiana Jones．If you prefer comedies，watch a comedy-anything with Hugh Grant in always provides a laugh！It's simple enough，but if you choose something you enjoy watching in your native language，you're more likely to enjoy it in English．
Choose something that you are familiar with．
It's best to start off with something simple because in this way you have a higher chance of understanding the film．Disney films such as The Lion King，or the more recently released Tangled，are classic examples．Other cartoons such as Up and The Lego Movie are also worth a watch．
Ask friends for advice
Perhaps  you have friends who have already seen English film？If so，they may be able to recommend one
If you need to，use the English subtitles
Subtitles are very helpful for beginners．using subtitles in your own language is the easiest choice，but for more advanced learners why not consider using English subtitles？This way，you can match the written subtitles to the words spoken on．screen．It helps you to develop your language further．
21．What can we know from the first paragraph？C
A．Some expressions from textbooks can be found in English films．
B．Unfamiliar spoken language can be neglected when we watch English films．
C．Foreign language films can help us improve our language skills．
D Strong regional accents cannot influence the understanding of English films．
22What kind of film will you probably watch if you like Hugh Grant？C
A．Action films．
B．Cartoon films
C．Comedy films
D．Detective
23．One way to get the most out of English films is watching filmsB．
A．with a foreigner
B．about familiar topics
C．native speakers recommend
D．without words on the screen

On October 29，2012，that ocean turned fierce（狂暴的）．That night，Hurricane Sandy attacked the East Coast，and Rockaway was hit especially hard．Fortunately，Natalie's family escaped to Brooklyn shortly before the city's bridge closed．
When they returned to Rockaway the next day，they found their neighborhood in ruins．Many of Natalie's friends had lost their homes and were living far away．All around her，people were suffering，especially the elderly．Natalie's school was so damaged that she had to temporarily（临时） attend a school in Brooklyn．
In the following few days，the men and women helping Rockaway recover inspired Natalie．Volunteers came with carloads of donated clothing and toys．Neighbors devoted their spare time to helping others rebuild．Teenagers climbed dozens of flights of stairs to deliver water and food to elderly people trapped in powerless high-rise buildings．

Today，the scars（创痕）of destruction are still seen in Rockaway，but hope is in the air．The streets are clear，and many homes have been rebuilt．"I can't imagine living anywhere but Rockaway，"Natalie declares（声明、宣布）．"My neighborhood will be back，even stronger than before．"
