The horror film is based on the book Coraline by British writer Neil Gaiman. But here is the thing: children had better watch this film with adults.In the film, a young girl named Coraline has moved into her new home with her family. This might sound fun, but her parents are boring. They hate mud and do not let her play in the garden. They cook terrible food, and worst of all, they dont talk to her often because they are both busy working.However, things begin to change after Coraline finds a small hidden door and a road leading her to a new world. Everything is perfect there. Her parents are funny and they buy her everything she wants. Coraline is really happy, but one thing worries her - all the people there have buttons for eyes. One day, Coraline is asked if she wants to put buttons into her own eyes so that she can stay in this wonderful world forever. While she is thinking about this, she discovers something terrible. She has to do something to save her family.Coraline tells an amazing story. It has given me a great lesson - be careful with what you wish for. I personally dont think it is that scary, though some people might. This film was made through the stop-motion animation, which means the characters were all made out of clay models and the motion was filmed one frame at a time. It must have been hard to make this film.21 . What type of film is Coraline?AA romantic film.BA science fiction film.CA horror cartoon.DAn action film.22 . The writer thinks children should watch Coraline with adults because _.Athey may feel bored with itBit might be a little bit scaryCthey arent allowed to watch it aloneDits attractive to both children and adults23 . Why dont Coralines parents talk to her very often?ABecause they dont have a good relationship.BBecause they are busy with their work.CBecause they dont love their daughter at all.DBecause they are often angry with Coraline.24 . From the third paragraph we know that _.Apeople in the new world dont have eyes.BCoraline wants to stay in the new world forever.CCoraline would like to change her eyes into buttons.DCoraline finally realizes that the new world is dangerous.25 . What cant we learn from the last paragraph?AThe film was really difficult to make.BThe writer thinks the film isnt very scary.CThe film is popular all over the world.DThe writer has learned something from the film.Traditional Chinese opera is finding new life in a different art form. More than 100 primary school teachers came to a training court to pass on the art to school children. After learning Chinese opera-themed(戏剧题材的) cartoons, they are now confident that they can spark(激发) childrens interest.These school teachers were quick learners in Chinese opera. They are practising a classic piece of Yueju Opera, a major branch of the Chinese opera family.Fang Tingting, the performer of Shanghai Yueju Opera Troupe, said, “I was actually nervous about teaching them, because I thought they may not be interested. But their passion(热情) swept away my worries. I think they will do well in helping Chinese opera.”Cartoons naturally attract the attention of children. Introducing Chinese opera to them in this way is proved to be great.Liu Hui, a school teacher, said, “The children are really interested in the cartoons. As teachers, we give them some directions and they start to copy the movies in the opera.”The teachers also believed this digital method really builds a bridge between the children and this traditional art form. And it really helps them learn the rich culture of China. They are glad to be trained here to take on this task.26 .
