I guess I didnt expect much else. So Young has everything a popular youth film should have: Beautiful young actors, a story about colorful campus life and involved romance, and a strong sense of longing for something pastThe leading female character Zheng Wei (Yang Zishan) enrolls at university to stay close to her childhood sweetheart Lin Jing (Han Geng). But when Lin moves abroad to pursue his education, life loses its shine for Zheng. Until she meets the dynamic yet cool Chen Xiaozheng (Mark Chao).The film also features a bunch of vivid supporting characters: The school beauty who falls in love with a worthless unimportant person, the rich kid who is rejected by his dream girl, and Zhengs boyish roommate with a huge ego(自我).Together they put on quite a show under Zhaos direction and her smooth and aesthetic camera work. Youll find yourself laughing over their trivial yet funny life on campus in the early 1990s.As expected, the films second half takes the audience to years later when the characters have moved on into different corners of society. But the film unexpectedly doesnt focus on the comedic vibe and turns into a serious discussion about the meaning of life and love. Through the events in their current life and flashbacks of their college years, the film describes how life has changed these characters. And thats where the film goes wrong.The emotional change of the characters seems overhasty. If you watch the 2011 youth film Youre the Apple of My Eye, youll find that the films resonance(共鸣)with the audience accumulates from the beginning through details like sexual fantasies and so on and peaks in the end. In So Young, the sudden emotional touch with endless splendid lines just isnt enough to strike our hearts.Zhao also clearly wanted to give every character a proper ending. But unfortunately she tried a bit too hard, making the films second half feel lengthy and unedited.Even so, given my reasonably low expectations, Zhao still gets full credits for her effort as a first-time director. Without her insightful input and observations, I think the film would have been worse.Just as time wrinkles the skin but enriches the soul, an ordinary film may as well be the best motivation for Zhao to make better ones in the future.41. Which of the following is correct according to this passage?A. This film has everything a popular fiction film should have.B. The leading female character goes to college to have a bright future.C. The school beauty who falls in love with a boy with a huge ego.D. A bunch of vivid supporting characters make the film more colorful.42. That the film goes wrong mainly because _.A. the film involves the characters trivial yet funny life on campus.B. the film describes the characters current life and flashbacks of their college yearsC. the film doesnt focus on the comedic vibe but turns into a serious discussion about the meaning of life and loveD. the film describes how life has changed these characters43. The word “ overhasty” in paragraph 6 is closest in meaning to_.A. surprising B. obvious C. hurried D. complicated44. Zhao still gets full credits for her effort as a first-time director, because_.A. the film would have been worseB. she made the films second half feel lengthy and unedited.C. she had insightful input and observations.D. the author didnt give high expectations to this film45. The attitude of the author towards this film is_.A. appreciative B. objective C. critical D. doubtfulBHere are some tips for applying to US colleges.Why are American universities so expensive?First of all, I'll say that American education is expensive for Americans but you're getting a high-quality education from some of the best professors in the world with some of the best resources and facilities in the world. American universities have state-of-the-art laboratories, computers, research systems, classrooms and all that is expensive. And also at many U.S. universities, you're learning from leading researchers and people who are at the top of the line in their field so it's also expensive for universities to have those people as professors. So, you're paying for a quality productthat's why it's very expensive. What kind of financial aid is available?It really depends on the university what kind of financial aid is available. There are a lot of opportunities out there for international students. There are some universities that have merit-based scholarships. Many have scholarships in general for international students. There are athletic scholarships, scholarships based on a specific talent. Are school rankings important?I know that rankings matter to a lot of parents and students worldwide, but here in the U.S. we pay very little attention to rankings. The rankings that are produced are actually the opinion of several different magazines. The official government doesn't have a universal ranking system. With that said, we know that for many families abroad and outside the United States, rankings are very important. So as a university, we try to make that information available so that students can see our rankings. How can I prepare for the visa interview?As long as you are a genuine student, it's likely that you will receive your visa. When you go for the interview they're looking for generally three things.One, of course, when you go into that visa interview, you should really know things about the university that you're going to, why you're going there, why you want to study, what you want to studythat's how you show that you're a genuine student.The second thing that they're looking for is to be sure that you have the finances to cover your educational program. You'll have to submit the same bank documentation you used in order to get your I-20 to the U.S. Embassy as part of your interview to prove that you are able to pay for your education in the U.S.The next thing that they're mainly looking for is to be sure that you're a legitimate student and that you're not looking to move to the United States, that you have a reason to return to your home country, prospective employment. 46. The passage mainly talks about some tips for applying to US colleges except _.A. high-quality education B. financial aidC. school rankings D. visa interview 47. Why are American universities so expensive?A. Because there are so many international students aims at applying to US colleges.B. Because Americans are getting a high-quality education.C. Because state-of-the-art laboratories, computers, research systems, classrooms are all expensive.D. Because leading researchers and top professors are expensive for universities48. What kind of financial aid is available?A. merit-based scholarshipsB. athletic scholarshipsC. scholarships based on a specific talent. D. It depends on the university49.

They want to let students get whole information so that they can see their rankings clear.C. Many families abroad and outside the United States pay great attention to school rankingsD. The rankings that are produced are actually the opinion of several different magazines.50. Which of the following statement is true?A. American universities have the best professors in the world.B. Universities have merit-based scholarships for every international student.C. Rankings are very important in U.S., so we try to make that information available D. You'll have to submit the same bank documentation you used in order to get your proof to the U.S.CMost of what I really need to know about how to live, and what to do and how to be, I learned in kindergarten.
