But what about really young filmmakers who arent in film school yet and arent, strictly speaking, even adults?They are at the heart of Wingspan Arts Kids Films Festival, tomorrow, in a setting any director might envy: Lincoln Center. Complete with red carpet interviews and various awards, the festival has much in common with events for more experienced moviemakers, except for the age of the participants: about 8 to 18.Whats really exciting is that its film for kids by kids, said Cori Gardner, managing director of Wingspan Arts, a nonprofit organization offering youth arts programs in the New York area. This year the festival will include films not only from Wingspan but also from other city organizations and one from a middle school in Arlington, Virginia. We want to make this a national event, Ms. Gardner added.The nine shorts to be shown range from a Claymation biography of B.B. King to a science fiction adventure set in the year 3005. A lot of the material is really mature, Ms. Gardner said, talking about films by the New York City branch of Global Action Project, a media arts and leadership-training group. The Choice is about the history of a family and Master Anti-Smoker is about the dangers of secondhand smoke. Dream of the Invisibles describes young immigrants feelings of both belonging and not belonging in their adopted country.The festival will end with an open reception at which other films will be shown.

Left in a bank it will hardly keep its value, however high the interest rate is. Only a brave man, or a very rich one, dares to buy and sell on the Stock Market. Today it seems that one of the best ways to protect your savings, and even increase your wealth is to buy beautiful objects from the past. Here I am going to offer some advice on collecting antique clocks, which I personally consider are among the most interesting of antiques.I sometimes wonder what a being from another planet might report back about our way of life. The planet Earth is ruled by a mysterious creature that sits or stands in a room and makes a strange ticking sound. It has a face with twelve black marks and two hands. Men can do nothing without its permission, and it fastens its young round peoples wrists so that everywhere men go they are still under its control. This creature is the real master of Earth and men are its slaves.Whether or not we are slaves of time today depends on our culture and personality, but it is believed that many years ago kings kept special slaves to tell the time. Certain men were very clever at measuring the time of day according to the beating of their own hearts. They were made to stand in a fixed place and every hour or so would shout the time. So it seems that the first clocks were human beings.However, men quickly found more convenient and reliable ways of telling the time. They learned to use the shadows cast by the sun. They marked the hours on candles, used sand in hour-glasses, and invented water-clocks. Indeed, any serious student of antiques should spend as much time as possible visiting palaces, stately homes and museums to see some of the finest examples of clocks from the past.Antique clocks could be very expensive, but one of the joys of collecting clocks is that it is still possible to find quite cheap ones for your own home. After all, if you are going to be ruled by the time, why not invest in air antique clock and perhaps make a future profit?56. According to the passage, collecting antique clocks _.A. can hardly keep the value of your savingsB. will cost much of your moneyC. may increase your wealthD. needs your bravery57. By quoting (引用) the remark of a being from another planet, the author intends to _.A. suggest human beings are controlled by a clockB. describe why clocks can rule the planet EarthC. tell readers what clocks look likeD. compare clicks to human beings58. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a way to measure the time?A. Counting the beating of ones own heart.B. Making use of candles, sand and water.C. Observing shadows cast by the sun.D. Keeping slaves busy day and night.59. The underlined phrase stately homes in Paragraph 4 means _.A. state-owned housesB. houses in very good conditionC. grand houses open to the publicD. houses where statesmen meet regularly60. The purpose of the passage is _.A. to introduce the culture of antique clocksB. to offer some advice on collecting antique clocksC. to compare different ways to make a future profitD. to tell people that we are the slaves of clocksCIt seems that politicians around the world are thinking about the health of their countries. While in China, Chen Zhu has announced his plans for a universal health service and reform across health services. Gordon Brown, the UK Prime Minister, has also announced he is planning to make some changes in our health service.The crux of Mr. Browns proposals is related to giving the NHS (National Health Service) a greater focus on prevention, rather than just curing patients.He is planning to introduce increased screening for common diseases such as heart disease, strokes and cancer, for example, breast cancer. In Britain there are 200,000 deaths a year from heart attacks and strokes, many of which might have been avoided if the condition had been known about.Initially, the diagnostic (诊断) tests will be available for those who are vulnerable, or most likely to have the disease. One example is a plan to offer all men over 65 an ultrasound test to check for problems with the main artery (动脉), a condition which kills 3,000 men a year. The opposition have criticized Mr. Browns proposals, saying that they are just a trick, and claiming that there is no proper timetable for the changes. They also say that Mr. Brown is reducing the money available for the treatment of certain conditions while putting more money towards testing for them.The NHS was founded in 1948, and is paid for by taxation. The idea is that the rich pay more towards the health service than the poor. However, in recent years there has been a great increase in the use of private health care, and its much quicker. The NHS waiting lists for operations can be very long, so many people who can afford it choose to pay for medical care themselves.61. The underlined word vulnerable in the fourth paragraph probably means _.A. sick B. weakC. wounded D. old62. All the following statements are true except that _.A. all people should pay for their health care at the NHSB. some people are against the reform of health careC. the writer is likely to come from BritainD. more money will be spent on testing people than before63. Which of the following is the reason for the increasing private health care?A. People are paying more attention to their own health.B. People are well off enough to pay their health care.C. The NHS was not available for most of the people.D. Its not so convenient for people to go to the NHS for their health care.64. According to the passage, the purpose of the health reform plan in the UK is to _.A. encourage more private health careB. focus on the prevention rather than on curing the patientC. deal with the main artery problemsD. fight against the opposition in the UK65. The author of this passage intends to tell us _.A. the NHS should be reformed right awayB. more and more people are dying from diseasesC. the plan to reform the NHS in the UKD. the criticism of Mr. Browns proposalsDFrom the health point of view we are living in a marvelous age. We are immunized from birth against many of the most dangerous diseases. A large number of once fatal illnesses can now be cured by modern drugs and surgery. It is almost certain that one day remedies will be found for the most stubborn remaining diseases. The expectation of life has increased enormously. But though the possibility of living a long and happy life is greater than ever before, every day we witness the incredible slaughter of men, women and children on the roads. Man versus the motor car! It is a never-ending battle which man is losing. Thousands of people over the world are killed or horribly killed each year and we are quietly sitting back and letting it happen.It has been rightly said that when a man is sitting behind a steering wheel, his car becomes the extension of his personality. There is no doubt that the motor car often brings out a mans very worst qualities. People who are normally quiet and pleasant may become unrecognizable when they are behind a steering-wheel. They swear, they are ill-mannered and aggressive, willful as two-year-olds and utterly selfish. All their hidden frustrations,
