About twenty of us had been fortunate enough to receive invitations to a film-studio (影棚) to take part in a
crowd-scene. Although our "act" would last only for a short time, we could see quite a number of interesting
things.
We all stood at the far end of the studio as workmen prepared the scene, setting up trees at the edge of a
winding path. Very soon, bright lights were turned on and the big movie-camera was wheeled into position. The
director shouted something to the camera operator and then went to speak to the two famous actors nearby. Since it
was hot in the studio, it came as a surprise to us to see one of the actors put on a heavy overcoat and start walking
along the path. A big fan began blowing tiny white feathers down on him, and soon the trees were covered in
"snow". Two more fans were turned on, and a "strong wind" blew through the trees. The picture looked so real that it made us feel cold.
The next scene was a complete contrast (对比).The way it was filmed was quite unusual. Pictures taken on an
island in the Pacific were shown on a glass screen. An actor and actress stood in front of the scene so that they
looked as if they were at the water's edge on an island. By a simple trick like this, palm trees, sandy beaches, and
blue, clear skies had been brought into the studio!
Since it was our turn next, we were left wondering what scene would be prepared for us. For a full three
minutes in our lives we would be experiencing the excitement of being film "Stars"!
1. Who is the author?
A. A cameraman. B. A film director.
C. A crowd-scene actor. D. A workman for scene setting.
2. What made the author feel cold?
A. The heavy snowfall. B. The man-made scene.
C. The low temperature. D. The film being shown.
3. What would happen in the "three minutes" mentioned, in the last paragraph?
A. A new scene would be filmed. B. More stars would act in the film.
C. The author would leave the studio. D. The next scene would be prepared.

Many people believe Henry Ford invented the automobile (汽车). But Henry Ford did not start to build his
first car until 1896. That was eleven years after two Germans developed the world's first automobile. Many
people believe Henry Ford invented the production line that moved a car's parts to the worker, instead of
making the worker move to the parts. That is not true, either. Many factory owners used methods of this kind
before Ford. What Henry Ford did was to use other people's ideas and make them better. And he made the
whole factory a moving production line.
In the early days of the automobile, almost every car maker raced his cars. It was the best way of gaining
public notice. Henry Ford decided to build a racing car. Ford's most famous race was his first one. It was also
the last race in which he drove the car himself.
The race was in 1901, at a field near Detroit. All of the most famous cars had entered, but only two were
left: the Winton and Ford's. The Winton was famous for its speed. Most people thought the race was over
before it began.
The Winton took an early lead. But halfway through the race, it began to lose power. Ford started to gain. And near the end of the race, he took the lead. Ford won the race and defeated the Winton. His name appeared
in newspapers and he became well-known all over the United States. Within weeks of the race, Henry Ford
formed a new automobile company. In the 1903, a doctor in Detroit bought the first car from the company.
That sale was the beginning of Henry Ford's dream. Ford said: "I will build a motor car for the great mass of
people. It will be large enough for the family, but small enough for one person to operate and care for. It will
be built of the best materials. It will be built by the best men to be employed. And it will be built with the
simplest plans that modem engineering can produce. It will be so low in price that no man making good
money will be unable to own one."
The Model T was a car of that kind. It only cost $850. It was a simple machine that drivers could depend
on. Doctors bought the Model T. So did farmers. Even criminals.They considered it the fastest and surest form
of transportation. Americans loved the Model T. They wrote stories and songs about it. Thousands of Model
T's were built in the first few years.

C. He knew how to improve auto parts. D. He invented the production line.
2. Why did Henry Ford take part in the 1901 car race?
A. To show off his driving skills. B. To draw public attention.

A. Producing cars for average customers. B. Building racing cars of simple design.

The Coalition for the Homeless is an organization that seeks to address the needs of the homeless
population in the United States. It is a network of offices, some of which provide food and houses for the
homeless population, and some of which fight for the passing of laws that of over two hundred million people
living in the United States, up to three million are homeless—and the number is still growing. Since the late
1970s,fast rising house prices, large cuts in government supported housing programs, and economic
recession(经济衰退)have made it impossible for many Americans to meet housing costs.
Sadly, this has resulted in a number of persons being forced to leave their homes and/or unable to find
new affordable homes. According to another research, families with children appear to be the fastest-growing part of the homeless population, making up 39% of it. The old idea of a homeless person, that of the single
man who gets drunk all the time, is no longer true. A much lager part of the population now finds itself
homeless. Even worse, once a person becomes homeless, he often finds it impossible to find a job, since most
employers require anyone who wants a job from them to provide a home address on a job application.

A. they have no home addresses
B. they mostly have a drinking problem
C. they aren't supported by government programs

A. The passing of new housing laws. B. The fast growth of family size.
C. The slow construction of houses. D. The ever-rising price of housing.

When you’re lying on the white sands of the Mexican Riviera, the stresses(压力)of the world seem a
million miles away. Hey, stop! This is no vacation-you have to finish something!
Here lies the problem for travel writer and food critic ( 评 论 家 ) , Edie Jarolim “I always loved

things,” Jarolim said. Now you can read her travel advice everywhere in Arts and Antiques, in Brides, or in

took a Test Frommer’s travel guides, passed it, and got the job. After working at Frommer’s, Jarolim worked
for a while at Rough Guides in London, then Fodor’s, where she fell so in love with a description of the

completing her tasks and writing reviews of restaurants at home in Tucson, Arizona.
