IMAX影院•随着电影《阿凡达》在我国的热映，很多人知道了一个词，那就是“IMAX影院”。人们争先恐后的去IMAX影院观看这部大片，以期获得最好的视觉效果。那么IMAX究竟是什么意思呢？•IMAX（即ImageMaximum的缩写，意为“最大影像”）是一种能够放映比传统胶片更大和更高分辨率的电影放映系统。标准的IMAX银幕为22米宽16米高，还有更大的银幕尺寸。整套系统包括以IMAX规格摄制的影片拷贝、放映机、音响系统、银幕等。让我们来看看《阿凡达》IMAX版当初在伦敦热映的场面吧：TicketsforAvataratIMAXhavebeenonsaleaheadofthefilmrelease(发行),and35,000weresoldinjustfourdays,withtheboxofficesopen24hoursaday,simplytocopewith(对付)thehighdemand.Notonlyweretheboxofficeskeptopenallnight—theIMAXcinemahasalsoscheduledextrascreenings(放映)ofthebrandnewfilm,withtwomoreshowingsat12:20amand3:40pm.Pre-readingPre-readingHaveyoueverbeentotheHaveyoueverbeentothetheatretheatre??Therearemanywell-knowntheatresintheTherearemanywell-knowntheatresintheworld.HaveyouheardtheParisOperaworld.HaveyouheardtheParisOperaHouse?House?TheParisOperaHouseWhatkindofplacedoyouthinkthetheatreis?theatreoperaorchestraplayconcertpuppetmovieStarsaresingingandStarsaresinginganddancingintheconcert.dancingintheconcert.Musicalperformanceswerealsowidespread.StrangelyStrangely,InBeijing,InBeijingopera,somefemaleopera,somefemalecharactersareactorscharactersareactorsbybymalemale..TheactorswearTheactorswearcostumescostumesintheplay.intheplay.GreatorchestraandGreatorchestraandchoirchoirhavehavefantasticperformances.fantasticperformances.PuppetstartedfromTangDynasty.1.atbirth出生时2.fallinlovewithsb喜欢；爱上3.pulloff拉下；扯下4.feelsorryforsb怜悯；同情5.wanderaround游荡6.lateatnight深夜7.breakone’sheart使某人心碎8.beshockedat...对……感到震惊根据汉语意思完成句子。1.他的父母在地震中遇难了，我们很同情他，给他很多帮助。Hisparentsdiedintheearthquake.We____________himandhelpedhimalot.2.他爱上了玛丽，但玛丽不知道。He________________Mary,butMarydidn’tknowaboutit.3.她出生时耳朵就有问题。Therewassomethingwrongwithherears________.feltsorryforfellinlovewithatbirth4.他们抢劫银行后，拉下了面具。Aftertheyrobbedthebank,they________theirmasks.5.这个乞丐经常在这个小区里游荡。Thebeggaroften____________thisresidentialarea.6.他常常深夜回家。Heoftengoeshome____________.7.人们对这次爆炸感到很震惊。People____________theexplosion.pulledoffwandersaroundlateatnightwereshockedatGame:short-termmemoryTitle:ThephantomoftheOperaThefirstparagraphs:TheParisOperaHouseisahugebuilding.Beneaththebuildingthereisastrange,darklake.Onthislakeisanisland.Ontheisland,onehundredyearsago,livedthePhantom.Thelastparagraphs:Christine'skindnessmadethePhantomcry.HeletRaoulgo,andtoldhimtotakeChristineaway.SomepeoplefromtheOperaarrivedatthePhantom’shome,readytokillhim.Butthephantommagicallydisappeared,andwasneverseenagain.Firstreading:usingyourshort-termmemorytoanswerthequestion1.Whendidthestoryhappen?2.Thestoryisprobably______.A.trueb.nottrue3.ThePhantomisprobably_____.A.amonsterb.amanc.ayoungwoman4.WhathappenedtothePhantomattheendofthestory?A.Hedisappearedb.HewascaughtOnehundredyearsago.bbaSecondreading:puttheeventsincorrectorderaThePhantomdisappeared.bThePhantomfellinlovewithChristine.cChristinekissedthePhantom’sface.dThePhantomwasforcedtoleavehome.eThePhantomkidnappedChristine.fThePhantomsangtoChristine.gThePhantomcapturedRaoul.hThePhantomletRaoulgo.tThePhantombuilthishomeontheisland.937154682Thirdreading:T...
