Everyone has experienced trying, but failing to master a difficult book that was begun with the hope of increasing one's understanding. When that happens, it is ?　36　?to think that it was a mistake to try to read it, but that was not the mistake. The mistake was in ?　37　? too much from the first reading of a(n) ?　38　? book. If you read it in the right way, no book written for the ?　39　?reader, no matter how difficult, need be a cause for despair(令人失望).

What is the right method? The ?　40　? is an important and helpful rule of reading that is either not ?　41　? or often forgotten. That rule is simply this: when reading a difficult book for the first time, read it through without ever ?　42　? to think about the things that you do not understand immediately.

Do not be stopped by what you ?　43　? understand. Read through the difficult ?　44　?,and you soon come to things that you do understand. Read these ?　45　?.You will have a much better chance of understanding all of the book when you read it again, but that ?　46　? you to have read the book through once ?　47　?.

What you understand by reading the book through to the ?　48　? will help you when you try later to read the places that you did not ?　49　? in your first reading. Or if you never re-read the book, understanding half of it is much better than understanding ?　50　? of it, which will happen ?　51　? you allow yourself to be stopped by the first difficult part of the book.?

Most of us were taught to ?　52　? the things that we do not understand. We were told to find the ?　53　? of unfamiliar words, and to try to find an explanation in another ?　54　? for anything that we did not understand in the book that we were reading. But when these things are done before the proper time, they only ?　55　? our reading, instead of helping it.

C　　
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
