本文讲述了《愤怒的小鸟》即将动画化和电影化的消息。制作公司为了把《愤怒的小鸟》打造为能够比肩《米老鼠》、《小熊维尼》和《辛普森一家》的超经典动画系列，请来了《钢铁侠》、《卑鄙的我》和《冰河世纪》的制作人John Cohen，并计划将电影拍摄成3D版。

【1】句意：你厌倦了一直看《米老鼠》，《小熊维尼》和《辛普森一家》吗？

getting tired of 厌倦……；looking forward to期待……；interested in对……感兴趣；taking charge of 负责/掌管……。由“Good news for angry birds fans. 愤怒小鸟粉丝们的好消息。”可知人们对以前老的动画厌倦了，所以对新的动画非常期待，故选A。

【2】句意：现在，流行的智能手机游戏《愤怒的小鸟》将成为每周卡通电视连续剧，并且该游戏的电影也正在制作中。

adventure 冒险；story 故事；magazine 杂志；film 电影。由后文“He promised that the new series and film will explore... 他承诺将探索新的动画电视系列和电影……”可知《愤怒的小鸟》还将出版电影，故选D。

【3】句意：人物更深刻的思想，更深刻的情感，例如为什么这些鸟总是生气？

excited 激动人心的；strong 强壮的；upset 沮丧的；angry 生气的。由《愤怒小鸟》的游戏名可知，在动画化和电影化的过程中，制作者将深入探索小鸟们“生气”的原因，故选D。

【4】句意：距游戏首次推出仅两年，《愤怒的小鸟》的下载量已超过10亿次，其母公司Rovio现在的市值达到56亿美元。

took off 起飞；came out 出版，发行；turned on 打开（电器）；got on 上车。由第四段可知，本段主要介绍《愤怒的小鸟》在“推出”后的火爆程度和给公司带来的收益，故选B。

【5】句意：游戏营销主管Peter Vesterbacka说，《愤怒的小鸟》的开发商Rovio认为自己是一个娱乐品牌，而不仅仅是游戏公司。

especially特别地；really 真地；just 只，仅仅；exactly 确切地。由前文“He promised that the new series and film will explore... 他承诺将探索新的动画电视系列和电影……”可知，Rovio的定位不“仅仅”只是游戏公司，他们还想游戏动画化和电影化，故选C。

【6】句意：这将是3D动画电影，将由John Cohen制作，John Cohen曾在许多热门电影中工作，例如《钢铁侠》，《卑鄙的我》和《冰河世纪》。

produced 制作，生产；published 出版、发行；prepared 准备；provided 证明。根据“...its parent company Rovio... 他的母公司Rovio”可知发行权在Rovio，那么根据四个选项推断，John Cohen只能是“制作”动画电影，故选A。
