单选题 Movies

Movies are the most popular form of entertainment for millions of Americans. They go to the movies to escape their normal everyday existence and to experience a life more exciting than their own. They may choose to see a particular film because they like the actors or because they have heard the film has a good story. But the main reason why people go to the movies is to escape. Sitting in a dark theater, watching the images on the screen, they enter another world that is real to them. They become involved in the lives of the characters in the movie, and for two hours, they forget all about their own problems. They are in a dream world where things often appear to be more romantic (浪漫的) and beautiful than in real life.
The biggest "dream factories" are in Hollywood, the capital of the film industry. Each year, Hollywood studios make hundreds of movies that are shown all over the world. American movies are popular because they tell stories and they are well-made. They provide the public with heroes who do things the average person would like to do but often can't. People have to cope with many problems and much trouble in real life, so they feel encouraged when they see the "good guys" win in the movies.

单选题 The Americans go to the movies mainly because they want______.

【正确答案】 D

【答案解析】文章第一段第二句话说：They go to the movies to escape their normal everyday existence and to experience a life more exciting than their own．“他们去看电影是因为要逃离自己日常的普通生活、体验一种比自己的生活更刺激的生活。”后面又谈到But the main reason why people go to the movies is to escape．“但人们看电影的主要原因是逃离。”所以美国人去看电影的重要原因是逃避现实生活。A、B、C项只是原因的一种，不是主要原因。

单选题 Which of the following is people's normal response to the movies they watch?______

A、 They feel that everything on the screen is familiar to them.
B、 They try to turn their dreams into reality.
C、 They become so involved that they forget their own problems.
D、 They are touched by the life stories of the stories of the actors and actresses.

【正确答案】 C

【答案解析】文章第一段谈到“坐在电影院里，看着屏幕上的画面，人们进入了另一个世界。两个小时之中，他们沉醉在电影的世界里，忘记了自己的烦恼。”因此人们对电影的反应是：如此地沉迷于其中而忘记了自己的烦恼。

单选题 It is obvious that real life is______.

单选题 The American movies are popular because______.

【正确答案】 A

【答案解析】答案依据第二段第三句：American movies are popular because they tell stories and they are well-made．“美国电影很流行是因为它们讲述故事，制作精良。”因此A项正确。

单选题 People enjoy seeing the movies because they______.

【正确答案】 B

【答案解析】文章的最后说“电影中有许多英雄人物，他们做了许多普通人想做又常常做不到的事情。而现实生活中我们必须处理许多问题，面对许多麻烦，因此当人们看到电影中的英雄获胜的时候，会受到鼓舞。”由此可知，人们喜欢看电影是因为他们会受到影片中人物的英雄事迹的鼓舞。A项应当是人们看电影的原因之一，但不是enjoy seeing the movies;C、D项都不符合文章的内容。
