Admittedly, Kubrick had one of the largest budgets ever for a film of this kind, but, in my opinion, much of the movie's power and appeal was achieved through relatively inexpensive means. For example, the musical score, which was adapted in large part from well-known classical compositions, was reinforced by the use of almost kaleidoscopic visual effects, especially during the space travel sequences. Spectacular camera work was edited to correspond precisely to the ebb and flow of the music.
After 2001, the dominant theme of science fiction films shifted from the adventures of space travel to the problems created on earth by man's mismanagement of the natural environment and the abuse of technology by a totalitarian state. Overpopulation and the accompanying shortages of food prompt the state to impose extraordinary controls on its citizens. No fewer than twenty-nine films were made around this theme in the years between 1970 and 1977, including Survivors and Chronicle.
In the opinion of this reviewer, until Star Wars was released in 1977, science fiction films were reduced to shallow symbolism disguising to a greater or lesser degree a series of repetitive plots. But Star Wars was different. It offered us a return to imaginative voyages in space and confrontation with intelligent life on other planets. Unlike the other science fiction films of the decade, Star Wars presented technology as having solved rather than aggravated ecological problems. The special effects created to simulate space vehicles traveling very fast through the blackness of the universe were similar to the artistic standards set by 2001.
Which of the following statements is true?
A.2001: A Space Odyssey imposed a great influence on most of the science fiction movies of the 1970s.
B.2001 was better than most of the science fiction movies of the 1970s.
C.A few of the science fiction movies of the 1970s were found sadly imperfect compared with 2001.
D.2001 set new standards for all kinds of movies.

听力原文:W: Hi, Paul. All set for your speech club presentation this evening?
M: Yeh, I'm going to discuss robots.
W: Robots? You mean those machines that walk and talk like in the movies?
M: No, industrial robots, like those which were used in automotive and electronics industries.
W: Come to think of it, I saw an article about that kind of robot the other day. There were pictures of robots welding cars, but they certainly didn't look the way 1 thought robot should look.
M: The robots we usually imagine are made up in science fiction. In industry robots are designed to do specific set of operations, such as welding car frames. They are rarely built to resemble humans.
W: Actually, all they need is a kind of brain to give signals and mechanism such as an arm to carry out instructions, right?
M: Right! Tiny computers become the brains of these robots. The computers send signal in a form. of electrical impulses that move an arm and a claw. The claw does particular kind of work.
W: Ok. but we have machines on the assembly line doing work for people for years. That's what started the Industrial Revolution, remember?
M: But each of those machines can only perform. a single operation and it takes months to modify them, The new industrial robots can each do a number of tasks and it's easy to reprogram them to perform. totally different operations. That's one reason why they're becoming so popular.
W: They increase productivity, don't they? I read that even though they are still quite expensive, they often cost less per year than a worker doing the same job. I imagine robots will be used more and more.

There are many different ways to spend our free time. Almost everyone has some kind of __2__. It may be something from colleting stamps to making model planes. Some hobbies are very expensive, but others don't cost anything at all. Some collections are worth a lot of money, others are valuable only to their owners.
I know a man who has a coin collection worth several __3__ dollars. A short time ago he bought a rare fifty-cent piece which cost him $50! He was very happy about this collection and thought the price was all right. On the other hand, my youngest brother collects match boxes. He has almost 600 kinds of them, but I wonder __4__ they are worth any money. However, to my brother they are quite valuable. __5__ makes him happier than to find a new match box for his collection.
That's what a hobby means, I think. It is something we like to do in our free time just for the fun of it. The value in dollars is not important, but the pleasure it gives us is.
