问答题 The proportion of works cut for the cinema in Britain dropped from 40 percent when I joined the BBFC in 1975 to less than 4 per cent when I left. But I don't think that 20 years from now it will be possible to regulate any medium as closely as I regulated film. The internet is, of course, the greatest problem for this century. {{U}} {{U}} 1 {{/U}} {{/U}}{{U}}The world will have to find a means, through some sort of international treaty or United Nations initiative, to control the material that's now going totally unregulated into people's homes.{{/U}} That said, it will only take one little country like Paraguay to refuse to sign a treaty for transmission to be unstoppable. Parental control is never going to be sufficient. {{U}} {{U}} 2 {{/U}} {{/U}}{{U}}I'm still very worried about the impact of violent video games, even though researchers say their impact is moderated by the fact that players don't so much experience the game as enjoy the technical manoeuvres(策略)that enable you to win.{{/U}} But in respect of violence in mainstream films, I'm more optimistic. Quite suddenly, tastes have changed, and it's no longer Stallone or Schwarzenegger who are the top stars, but Leonardo DiCaprio--that has taken everybody by surprise. {{U}} {{U}} 3 {{/U}} {{/U}}{{U}}Go through the most successful films in Europe and America now and you will find virtually none that are violent.{{/U}} Quentin Tarantino didn't usher in a new, violent generation, and films are becoming much more pre-social than one would have expected. Cinemagoing will undoubtedly survive. The new multiplexes are a glorious experience, offering perfect sound and picture and very comfortable seats, things which had died out in the 1980s. {{U}} {{U}} 3 {{/U}} {{/U}}{{U}}I can't believe we've achieved that only to throw it away in favour of huddling around a 14-finch computer monitor to watch digitally--delivered movies at home.{{/U}} It will become increasingly cheap to make films, with cameras becoming smaller and lighter but remaining very precise. {{U}} {{U}} 5 {{/U}} {{/U}}{{U}}That means greater chances for new talent to emerge, as it will be much easier for people to learn how to be better film-makers.{{/U}} People's working lives will be shorter in the future, and once retired they will spend a lot of time learning to do things that amuse them--like making videos. Fifty years on we could well be media-saturated as producers as well as audience: instead of writing letter, one will send little home movies entitled My Week.

问答题Even though she was blind and deaf, Helen Keller was a woman with an extraordinary social vision. 61) When most women's rights activists were working for the right to vote, Helen Keller advocated action that was more direct and more immediate than the vote. In 1911, speaking in England where women had the right to vote, she said: "Our democracy is but a name. We vote? What does that mean? It means that we choose between two bodies of real, though not avowed, autocrats... You ask for votes for women. 62) What good can votes do when ten-eleventh of the land of Great Britain belongs to 200,000 men and only one-eleventh to the rest of the 40,000,000? Have your men with their millions of votes freed themselves from this injustice?" 63) When she became active and openly socialist, a New York city newspaper, the Brooklyn Eagle, which had previously treated her as a heroine, criticized that her misguided socialism had somehow developed from her blind and deaf condition. She replied that when once she met the editor of the Brooklyn Eagle, he had complimented her lavishly: "But now that I have come out for socialism, he reminds me and the public that I am blind and deaf and especially liable to error." She added: "Oh, ridiculous Brooklyn Eagle! What an ungallant bird it is! 64) Socially blind and deaf, it defends an intolerable system, a system that is the cause of much of the physical blindness and deafness which we are trying to prevent. The Eagle and I are at war. I hate the system which it represents... When it fights back, let it fight fair... It is not fair fighting or good argument to remind me and others that I cannot see or hear. I can read. I can read all the socialist books I have time for in English, German and French. If the editor of the Brooklyn Eagle should read some of them, he might be a wiser man, and make a better newspaper. 65) If I ever contribute to the socialist movement the book I sometimes dream of, I know what I shall name it: Industrial Blindness and Social Deafness."

问答题 During the traditional wedding ceremony, the bride and the bridegroom promise each other lifelong devotion. Yet, about one out of four American marriages ends in divorce. 61) {{U}}Since 1940, the divorce rate has more than doubled, and experts predict that, of all marriages that occurred in the 1970s, about 50% will end in divorce. {{/U}}The U. S. A. has one of the highest divorce rates in the world, perhaps even the highest. What goes wrong? 62) {{U}}The fact that divorce is so common in the United States does not mean that Americans consider marriage a casual, unimportant relationship. {{/U}}Just the opposite is true. Americans expect a great deal from marriage. They seek physical, emotional, and intellectual compatibility. They want to be deeply loved and understood. It is because Americans expect so much from marriage that so many get divorced. They prefer no marriage at all to a marriage without love and understanding. With typical American optimism, they end one marriage in hope that the next will be happier. With no-fault divorce laws in many states, it is easier than ever to get a divorce. 63) {{U}}Some American women stay in unhappy marriages because they don't have the education or job experience to support themselves and their children, but most American women believe that, if necessary, they can make it alone without a husband. {{/U}}All things considered, Americans have little reason to continue an unhappy marriage. Which marriages are most likely to end in divorce? Marriages between people with low incomes or limited education and marriages between teenagers are at greatest risk. The number of divorces between couples with Children under the age of 18 is declining, and almost 45% of divorcing couples are childless. 64) {{U}}When a couple gets divorced, the court may require the man to pay his former wife a monthly sum of money, which depends on the husband's income, the wife's needs, and the length of the marriage. {{/U}}If the woman is working and earns a good salary, she may receive no money at all. Occasionally, the court decides that a woman should pay her husband money. About 10% of American women outearn their husbands. 65) {{U}}If the woman has totally supported her husband during the marriage, the court may decide that she must continue to support him after the divorce, which is a rather new concept in the United States. {{/U}}
