(mom had died sometime earlier). the planet is hit by an environmental catastrophe, and lives are torn apart. the father, played by matthew mcconaughey, goes off into space to find a replacement planet where humanity might survive. the movie is pushed ahead by the angry love of his daughter, who loves and feels angry at him for leaving, decade after decade.on top of that, there is another kind of love. its the love humans have for their ancestors and the love they have for the unborn. in the movie, 12 apostles (门徒) go out alone into space to look for planets where people can live. they are giving up their lives so that frozen embryos can be born again in some place far away.nolan wants us to see the power of these attachments: even if people are separated by vast distances or even by death, their attention is focused on their loved ones. they are eager to see each other again.when the mcconaughey character goes into space he leaves behind the rules of everyday earthly life. time changes speed. mcconaughey is off to places where time is moving much more slowly than it is on earth, so he ends up younger than his daughter. once in the place of an ancestor, he becomes, effectively, her descendant (后裔).these plots are generally based on real science. the physicist kip thorne has a book out, “the science of interstellar” explaining it all. but what matters in the movie is the way science and human feelings mix together with each other to create a powerful mysterious atmosphere.59. this passage is most probably taken from _.a. a film posterb. a science book c. a website d. a textbook60. according to this passage, “interstellar” describes all kinds of love except _.a. a grandfathers love for his grandkidsb. childrens love for their motherc. a daughters angry love for her fatherd. humans love for their ancestors61. which of the following about “interstellar” is true according to the passage?a. it is a traditional love story where a man and a woman are off saving the world.b. it is a documentary movie about the powerful atmosphere created by science.c. it is an adaptation from a real science book called “the science of interstellar”.d. it is a movie where science and human feelings mix together in a special way. cmy mom only had one eye. she ran a small shop at a flea market. she collected little weeds and such to sell anything for the money we needed. there was this one day during elementary school. i remember that it was field day, and my mom came. i was so embarrassed. how could she do this to me? i threw her a hateful look and ran out. the next day at school “your mom only has one eye?!” and they taunted me.i wished that my mom would just disappear from this world so i said to my mom, “mom, why dont you have the other eye?! youre only going to make me a laughingstock. why dont you just die?” my mom did not respond. i guess i felt a little bad, but at the same time, it felt good to think that i had said what id wanted to say all this time. maybe it was because my mom hadnt punished me, but i didnt think that i had hurt her feelings very badly.then i studied really hard. i left my mother and came to seoul and studied, and got accepted in the seoul university with all the confidence i had. then, i got married. i bought a house of my own. then i had kids, too. now im living happily as a successful man. i like it here because its a place that doesnt remind me of my mom.this happiness was getting bigger and bigger, when someone unexpected came to see me “what?! whos this?!” it was my mother still with her one eye. it felt as if the whole sky was falling apart on me. my little girl ran away, scared of my moms eye.and i asked her, “who are you? i dont know you!” as if i tried to make that real. i screamed at her “how dare you come to my house and scare my daughter! get out of here now!” and to this, my mother quietly answered, “oh, im so sorry. i may have gotten the wrong address,” and she disappeared. thank goodness she doesnt recognize me. i was quite relieved. i told myself that i wasnt going to care, or think about this for the rest of my life.then a wave of relief came upon me one day, a letter regarding a school reunion came to my house. i lied to my wife saying that i was going on a business trip. after the reunion, i went down to the old shack, that i used to call a housejust out of curiosity there, i found my mother fallen on the cold ground. but i did not shed a single tear. she had a piece of paper in her hand. it was a letter to me.she wrote: my son, i think my life has been long enough now. and i wont visit seoul anymore but would it be too much to ask if i wanted you to come visit me once in a while? i miss you so much. and i was so glad when i heard you were coming for the reunion. but i decided not to go to the school. for you im sorry that i only have one eye, and i was an embarrassment for you. you see, when you were very little, you got into an accident, and lost your eye. as a mother, i couldnt stand watching you having to grow up with only one eye so i gave you mine i was so proud of my son that was seeing a whole new world for me, in my place, with that eye. i was never upset at you for anything you did. the couple times that you were angry with me. i thought to myself, its because he loves me. i miss the times when you were still young around me. i miss you so much. i love you. you mean the world to me.my wo
