题目列表(包括答案和解析)

  According to the Chinese media,Steven Spielberg has expressed some interest in several China-related projects and one of them is a film version of classic fantasy novel Journey to the West.Reportedly,he discussed the idea with several Chinese colleagues(同行)during his last visit to Beijing over a month ago.

  Written during the 16th Century(Ming Dynasty)and based on folktales(民间故事)by Wu Cheng’en,the novel tells the adventure of a Tang Dynasty(618-907)Buddhist priest Sanzang(a real historical person)and his three disciples(徒弟),the Monkey King,the pig and Fiar Sand,as they travel west in search of Buddhist texts.There have been many movies,TV shows,comic series and animations based on the book or the characters of the book,which are very popular among Asian cultures.

  Zhang Jinlai,who played the Monkey King in a TV version produced by China’s CCTV, has volunteered himself to help Spielberg to do the project “right”.He said there have been always too many unfaithful adaptations,which could only be described as disgrace to the classic,and in August or September this year, he would go to America to tell Spielberg about his concern.Zhang would also suggest making the movie in China and shooting the scenes of “the west” in India or Nepal.

  Long before they became doctors, lawyers, CEO’s or real estate developers, they played in garage bands and maybe even dreamed of becoming rock stars.That’s why they signed up for Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy Camp.

  For nearly a week, the mostly middle-aged “campers” had practiced in the West 54th Street studios.They came from as far away as London and Tokyo and as close as Long Island and downtown New York to prepare for their moment of onstage glory.

  “I feel like I’m 18 again,” said Jerry Goldberg, a 60-year-old investment banker and guitar player, whose family was in the audience.” I admit that I felt a little uncertain when I first got here, but this has turned out to be a wonderful experience, one of the greatest of my life.”

  Everybody has two businesses, their own business and show business.This can be a life-changing experience for them.Mr.Daltrey, who has appeared at several fantasy camps, was asked why he keeps coming back.

  “I’ve had people tell me that I shouldn’t be doing this, that it's bad for my image,” he acknowledged.“But that’s rubbish.Look, it’s all so positive, and everybody is having so much fun.So what’s bad about that?”

  Jeff Munger, a drummer and rancher(农场主)said.“I’m at a point in my life where I’m going to spend my money on things I’m passionate about, and I’m absolutely crazy about music.”

  Most of the campers are successful executives or professionals:a founder of the Oracle Computer Company, a businessman whose father invented the Big Mac, a plastic surgeon, presidents of health care and seafood companies.

I’m lying on my back in my grandfather’s orchard(果园),looking up at the branches above me.It is one of the last days of summer.Already the days are shorter and the nights are cooler.Some kinds of apples are already ripe(成熟的).Others will be ready to pick soon.I think of my grandmother’s apple pie,and how I used to make it with her.She died last year,before the apple harvest,and I have not had her pie since.I really miss her.I hear bees busily humming about,visiting the late summer flowers.The gentle hum of their wings nearly sends me to sleep.

The sky is as blue as my grandfather’s eyes.Above me,big white clouds race across the sky like pieces of cotton blowing in the w ind.School starts in another week,and time seems to have slowed down.

“Sophie!”calls my  grandfather.“Is that you?”I stand up,take his hand,and tell him all about my day as we walk through the orchard.We talk about apples,and bees,and Grandma.He tells me that he misses her too.

He puts his rough,brown farmer’s hand around my shoulder and pulls me close.“You know,Sophie,”he says,“I spent the morning in the attic(阁楼),and you’ll never guess what I found.It’s the recipe(烹饪法) for Grandma’s apple pie.I used to help her make it sometimes.I can’t do it all alone,but you used to help her too.Maybe between the two of us,we ca n work it out.Want to try?”

“But it won’t be the same without Grandma,” I tell him.

“That’s true,”he says,“but nothing_is_the_same_without_Grandma.Still,I don’t think that she would want us never to have another apple pie.What do you say?” I nod yes,and we walk towards home...towards an afternoon in the farmhouse kitchen,making Grandma’s famous apple pie.
