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

　　These days’ experience(经历) ,like many other things, are becoming increasingly expensive. One has to get to pay a lot to get, even an ordinary one.

　　Not long ago, I wanted to invite my friends to a lunch. What we really need was a good and a quiet place for a talk, not a big meal. So I chose one and told my friends to go there.

　　After I ordered, I was asked whether I would eat a 100 yuan or 200 yuan lunch, I said,“200 yuan.” I didn’t realize until I was asked to pay after lunch, that“200 yuan”means“200 yuan for person each.”

　　There were five people that day, and all of us were surprised by the 200 yuan meal. The bill came at last: it was 1260 [l000 for the five of us, plus the money for drinks, fruits and air conditioning(空调)]. I paid the bill without a word.

　　What could I say? It was not their fault(过失). It was my own fault that made me pay the largest bill in my life.

　　However, it was not so bad: we had a good lunch and at a quiet place. Besides, the experience will help in later years.

　　To support my idea, I have developed my own way of thinking about the price: 200 yuan for the lunch and 1060 for the experience. This paid experience has made me ten times wiser.
