Passage 1 Scripts In 1978, as I applied to study film at the University of Illinois, my father objected and quoted me a statistic, “Every year, 50,000 performers compete for 200

12、 available roles on Broadway.” Against his advice, I boarded a flight to the US. Some years later, when I graduated from the film school, I came to understand my fathers concern. It was nearly unheard of for a Chinese newcomer to make it in the American film industry. Beginning in 1983, I struggled

13、through six years of annoying, hopeless uncertainty. Much of the time, I was helping film crews with their equipment or working as editors assistant. My most painful experience involved shopping a screenplay at more than 30 different production companies, and being met with harsh rejection each time

14、. That year, I turned 30. Yet, I couldnt even support myself. What could I do Keep waiting, or give up my moviemaking dream My wife gave me strong support. Her income was terribly modest.

15、 to reading, reviewing films and writing scripts. It was rather shameful for a man to live this kind of life. Afterward, I enrolled in a computer course at a community college. At that time, it seemed that only the knowledge of computer could quickly make me employable. One morning, right before she

16、 got in her car to head off to work, my wife turned back and standing there on our front steps said, “Ang Lee, dont forget your dream.” Sometime after, I obtained funding for my screenplay, and began to shoot my own films. After that, a few of my films started to win international awards. Recalling

17、earlier times, my wife confessed, “Ive always believed that you only need one gift. Your gift is making films.” And today, Ive finally won that golden statue. I think my own perseverance and my wifes immeasurable sacrifice have finally met their reward. Q1: When did Ang Lee come to understand his fa

18、thers concern about studying film Q2: What was Ang Lees most painful experience according to the passage Q3: Why did Ang Lee enroll in a computer course at a community college Q4: What did Ang Lees wife think of him according to the passage Passage 2 Scripts and answers Nothing succeeds like confide

19、nce. When you are truly and justifiably confident, it radiates from you like sunlight, and attracts success to you like a magnet. Its so important to 1) believe in yourself.

It comes from knowing exactly where you are going, and how you are going to get there. It comes from 4) a strong sense of purpose. It comes from a strong commitment to take 5) responsi

21、bility, rather than just let life happen. One way to develop self-confidence is to do the thing you fear and get a record of successful experiences behind you. Confidence does not equal self-importance. Self-importance is born out of fear and 6) insecurity, while confidence comes from strength and 7

22、) integrity. Confidence is not just believing you can do it. Confidence is knowing you can do it, and knowing that you are capable of 8) accomplishing anything you want. Anything can be achieved through focused, determined effort, commitment and selfconfidence. If your life is not what you 9) are lo

23、nging for, you have the power to change it, and you must make such changes on a moment by moment basis. Live with your goals and your plan of action, and live each moment with your 10) priorities in mind, then you will have the life you want.Unit 2 Emotions speak louder than wordsFurther practice in

31、r the slopes in early summer. M: He loved those flowers, too, and we had baskets and bunches of them at the funeral. W: That sounds really special. Those little details can be such a comfort.

32、. We had just come home from a five-day hiking and camping trip in June. We had caught six fish for dinner and mom was preparing them in the kitchen. Dad sat down in his favorite green chair and had a heart attack and died quickly and peacefully. W: Its tough to lose someone you love, but it sounds

65、ere are some tips to be a good neighbor and deal with a bad one: Get to know each other. Being a good neighbor doesnt mean 2) taking family vacations together.
