A Film For Children: Frozen

There are three features classic Disney animations( 动画片）are supposed to have. The first is wonderful music. The second is a bit of danger and darkness in the songs. The third is a conservative message wrapped up in a traditional happy ending. Loosely inspired by Hans Christian Andersen’s story The Snow Queen, Frozen initially promises to deliver on all three.

We open with two tiny princess playing together in their parents’ palace. Elsa is entertaining her younger sister Anna by shooting ice and snow from her hand, creating a secret playground. As the girls grow up, the film properly begins, with icy blonde Elsa(voiced by Idina Menzel) charged never to use her powers or show the world who she really is. Cut off from her elder sister, Anna(Kristen Bell) is bored beyond belief, dreaming of true love. The standout song is Let It Go. Frozen has blue tunes and darkness. But to our satisfaction, it has an end that makes everyone happy.

When I was a little girl, I remember that when my dad was repairing something, he would ask me to hold the hammer, so we would have time for a conversation with each other. I never saw my dad drinking or taking a night out. All he did after work was taking care of his family.

I grew up and left home for college and since then, my dad had been calling me every Sunday morning. And when I bought a house several years later, my dad painted it by himself in the fierce summer heat. All he asked was to talk to him, but I was too busy in those days.

Four years ago, my dad visited me. He spent many hours putting together a swing for my daughter. He asked me to have a talk with him, but I had to prepare for a trip that weekend.

One Sunday morning we had a telephone talk as usual. I noticed that my dad had forgotten some things that we discussed lately. I was in a hurry, so our conversation was short. Several hours later that day I received a call. My father was in the hospital. Immediately I bought a plane ticket and on my way I was thinking about all the occasions I missed to have a talk with my dad. By the time I arrived at the hospital, my father had passed away. Now it was he who did not have time for a conversation with me. I realized how little I knew about my dad, his deepest thoughts and his dreams.

After his death I learned much more about him and even more about myself. All he ever wanted was my time. And now he has all my attention every single day.

In England in the Middle Ages, the knight came after the lord on the social ladder. The path to knighthood began at the age of seven, when a vassal(封臣）sent his son to the lord’s house to become a page as part of his training. For seven years, a page was cared for by the women of the house, who taught him many important things. At the age of fourteen, the page became a squire, a personal attendant(随从）to a knight. From the knight he learned riding and all the skills of war, as well as hunting, hawking, and other sports. In theory, the squire could be knighted on the battlefield for exceptional bravery, but this event was much rarer than Hollywood would have made us believe.

When he was judged ready(generally between the ages of 18 and 21), the squire was knighted. He had to promise seriously to the knightly code which asked him to “protect the weak, defenseless, and helpless, and fight for the general welfare of all”. This code was rarely lived up to, but it remained the standard for proper behaviour among the noble people for centuries.

Battles were usually small affairs, fought between the knights of different lords. The object in a fight wasn’t necessarily to kill a competitor, but to catch him and ask his lord to pay for him.

Introduced from France in the 12th century, tournaments were an important part of military and social life. These “war games” contained individual contests, and group fights. Lances and swords were not sharp, but tournaments were where fame was made, so the fighting was hard and dangerous. Prizes were given to the winners, and some knights, such as famous William Marshall, made money in the tournaments. By the 14th century, tournaments became exciting fairs complete with singing, dancing, and feasting which might last for several days.

9. What was required to become a knight in England in the Middle Ages?

1. Learning many important things in a school.
2. Being born by the women of the house.
3. Being sent to the lord’s house at 14.
4. Being the son of a noble man.

10. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 mean?

1. A squire had to be exceptionally brave.
2. A squire didn’t really go to a battlefield.
3. A squire was rarely knighted on the battlefield.
4. Hollywood makes people know well about a squire.

11. What can we learn about the knightly code?

1. It aimed to build a better society.
2. Knights never behaved according to it.
3. Knights were asked to fight for their own benefits.
4. It was the standard for British people’s behavior for long.

12. Why would knights fight fiercely in tournaments?

1. Because it was a great way to please the lord.
2. Because winning would bring great honor.
3. Because lords paid a lot of money for it.
4. Because they must fight for their lives.

(D)

Robots that can chat, find misplaced glasses, draw aeroplanes and play with your children are attracting thousands of visitors during an exposition in Tokyo as Japan adapts to changes in society. Robots, such as the sound-sensitive Chapit, answer simple questions and even joke with people to help them fight loneliness and stay alert at an old age.

Japan has one of the world’s fastest-ageing societies and the government predicts that by 2050 the proportion of people over 65 will reach 40 percent. “Many older people in Japan live alone and have no one to talk to,” said Kazuya Kitamura, a representative of the exposition organizer. “Communication robots accompany people that don’t mind listening to the same stories over and over again.”

“Personal Mobility Robot”, equipped with four cameras and a sensor to recognize the user’s center of gravity, is designed to help the elderly move around without pressing buttons, using joysticks(操纵杆）or rotating wheels as in traditional wheelchairs.

The robot can also help find misplaced glasses by identifying them with a sensor.

Other robots, such as the award-winning “DiGRO” can support busy parents who have little time to play with their children. The robot can use the Internet to find a simple image and then draw pictures, keeping children company while parents are working.

While Chapit, a relatively simple robot, managed to attract a corporate partner, many researchers, such as Kiyoshi Matsumoto, a professor at the University of Tokyo, struggle to attract sponsors for more expensive projects.

“We have developed a robot that can assist many people, but we still haven’t found a sponsor,” said Matsumoto, who added that the cost of the machine, if mass-produced, would be comparable to that of a car. “In the current economic environment there are few companies willing to invest in such a costly project.” he said.

13. It can be inferred from the text that ______.

1. many children lack love from parents
2. robots helpful to the old will be in great demand
3. robots are the most useful to children
4. robots do better than people in health care

14. It is difficult to find sponsors for robots because ______.

1. Japan is suffering economy depression
2. the robots are of poor design
3. the production of robots costs a lot
4. the future market is worrying

15. What is the author’s attitude towards the robots referred to?

1. Unsatisfied    B.Doubtful    C.Favorable     D.Regretful

Guide for Teenagers
　　The teenage years can be tough, and it’s normal to feel sad every now and then．But if these feelings don’t go away or become so intense that you can’t handle them, you may be suffering from depression． 16
　　Try not to isolate yourself
　　When you’re depressed, you may not feel like seeing anybody or doing anything．Just getting out of bed in the morning can be difficult, but isolating yourself only makes depression worse． 17  Spend time with friends, especially those who are active．
　　Keep your body healthy

　  20

Good morning, everyone! It’s my honor to be here to make a short speech.

Recently I have found that some of our classmates can’t study effectively. Some can’t help falling asleep in class, because they often study too late into the night. Others seldom have sports, which surely does harm to their health.

As we know, enough sleep is of great importance for us Senior 3 students. We can concentrate our mind on class with sufficient sleep, so we should try to make wise use of our time, striking a balance between work and leisure. Besides, doing proper exercise every day can benefit us a lot, keeping fit, reducing stress and so on. Let’s spare some time to do all kinds of sports. And only in this way can we keep a good mood and study well.

That’s all. Thank you for listening!
