With such financial risks, studios want to attract as many people as possible and make a big profit. I often complain that chasing profits ruins movies. Imagine if Italian painter Leonardo da Vinci （1452-1519） had to satisfy investors for The Last Supper.In May, Paramount released its trailer （预告片）for a live-action Sonic the Hedgehog movie. Everyone was excited, including me. I love this character, in part because he's ridiculous. Hedgehogs （刺J猬）aren't fast, nor are they blue. Had the game's designers ever actually seen a hedgehog? Who cares? Sonic has always looked cool. Nobody would play a video game featuring a realistic hedgehog character.When I saw the movie trailer, though, I worried. Sonic's eyes were too far apart and his big teeth looked like they would eat my fingers. His body looked like a child wearing pajamas（口垂衣）.Sonic didn9t look cool. He looked like the half-human result of a failed genetic experiment.You know the internet. People there will fight you for saying the sky is blue. This time, however, the internet stood together: Sonic looked TERRIBLE. People joked about it all over social media. Paramount couldn't ignore this online outrageand quickly announced a redesign, at great cost to the company.At first, I thought it was awesome. Back when I was a kid, there was no social media. We would have been stuck with creepy, crappy （'怪异且蹩月却的）Sonic and his terrifying teeth. After the redesign, Sonic looks cooler than ever. I'm glad the studio broke its budget to get Sonic right.But I'm a little worried, too. What if this starts a trend? What if directors keep going to Sina Weibo or Twitter to make people happy? One thing I've learned in life is that if you try to make everybody happy, nobody will be happy.If an art form only exists to make money by giving audiences what they expect, can we really call it “art” anymore? Some of my favorite movies are ones that nobody liked at first. Usually, what makes them good is the same thing that made them unpopular. Studios might end up with lots of money but we would end up with a lot of bad movies.27. What is the author's main purpose in writing the text?A. To describe his love for the character the hedgehog, Sonic.B. To promote the movie Sonic the Hedgehog for its redesign.C. To complain about how bad Sonic looked in the film trailer.D. To express his concern over studios' attempts to please audiences.28. Why did the author get worried when he saw the earlier movie trailer?A. Sonic looked awful in the trailer.B. Sonic looked like a realistic hedgehog.C. They chose the wrong actor to play Sonic.D. The plot of the movie was dull.29. What does the underlined word "outraee“ in paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Anger.B. Surprise.C. Humor.D. Thrill.30. Which of the following would the author probably agree with?A. Great works of art are always disfavored at the beginning.B. Great movies are ones that reflect the audience's tastes.C. The best movies will end up with great profits.D. A good movie could gain little popularity at first.【答案】27. D 28. A 29. A 30. D【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了作者对为了取悦观众追求利润，而拍出一些不好的电影这一 现象的担忧。【27题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第一段中“I often complain that chasing profits ruins movies.（我经常抱怨追逐利润毁 掉了 电影。）”及最后一段中 “If an art form only exists to make money by giving audiences what they expect, can we really call it匕十anymore?（如果任何一种艺术形式存在的唯一目的就是通过带给观众所期望的东西 来赚钱，那么我们还能称之为'艺术'吗？）”可知，文章表达了作者对为了取悦观众追求利润，而拍出 一些不好的电影这一现象的担忧。故选D项。【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段最后两句 "Sonic didn9t look cool. He looked like the half-human result of a failed genetic experiment.（Sonic看起来并不酷。他看起来就像基因实验失败后的半人半兽。）”可知，第一 版预告片中的Sonic看起来很糟糕，所以作者很担忧。故选A项。【29题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线词上文 “This time, however, the internet stood together: Sonic looked TERRIBLE.People joked about it all over social media.（然而，这一次，互联网站在了一起：Sonic看起来很糟糕。人们 在社交媒体上对此开玩笑。）”可知，网上对于预告片中的Sonic很不满，结合划线词下文“quickly announced a redesign（迅速宣布重新设计）”可推知，划线词所在句意为：Paramount无法忽视来自网络的愤 怒，很快宣布不惜重金重新设计，outrage意为“愤怒”。故选A项。【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段第二句 "Some of my favorite movies are ones that nobody liked at first.（我最 喜欢的一些电影一开始都是没有人喜欢）”可知，好的电影一开始可能并不受欢迎。故选D项。第二节（共5个小题;每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选 项。You are bound to face some challenges in life as situations around you change.

Really think it through.（在你做任何事情之前 了 解你所有的选择。好好想想。）”可知，作者给我们提出的建议是行动之前先评估形式。所以此处解释这 一建议的原因，即为什么要先评估形式。选项 G “This way, you organize your efforts so you can fully focus your attention on a situational goal.（通过这种方式，你可以组织你的努力，这样你就可以把你的注意力完全集中在一个情境目标上。）”符合语意，承接上文，故选G。【33题详解】根据上文“Situations can change.（形式会变）”可知，作者告诉我们遇到挑战时，所处形式会不断变化，由 此可知，此处作者会建议我们要明白并接受这种变化。选项F "Understand that things don't always work out as you originally planned.（要明白事情并不总是按照你最初的计划进行。）”符合语意，故选F。【34题详解】 根据文章结构可知，此处是本段小标题，主要介绍如何应对生活挑战的一条建议，根据下文“This is animportant point. Early in life, with little or no experience to draw upon, you may feel confused and afraid of making changes and confronting new situations. Thafs not surprising. People often fear change and what outcome change will bring. But life is about change. A situation that's fine for one specific time in your life may not be right or appropriate for another time.
