26、   China's box office numbers continue to grow rapidly. It is estimated that the revenues( 收入) may pass the U. S. market's as soon as this year. However, this cinematic party could be over just as it's getting started. Some companies are working to convince consumers that the ultimate viewing experience is not on the big screen.

Instead, it's on the small ones that are already in their pockets-thanks to the technology of virtual reality.

Already,VR experience centers are popping up in major cities like Beijing and Shanghai. They give customers the opportunity to watch VR movies or play VR games for about the same price as a discount movie ticket. Online video sites, meanwhile, are also moving into the VR field. Some of them, like Youku, have launched(推出) their own VR apps and channels.

China has more than 700 million smartphone users. A large percentage of them are already more than willing to download and watch TV shows and even full-length movies on their handsets. This potentially makes them more likely to embrace VR content than Americans and Europeans.

But in fact, it's not just Chinese companies and video websites that believe VR will pull viewers away from movie theaters. International production companies that, for years, have made block busters (大片) for cinema audiences are also warning that disruptive change is around the corner.

Maureen Fan, chief executive of the Silicon Valley VR start-up Baobab Studios, after bringing her company's animated VR short Invasion to the Shanghai International Film Festival last year, concluded that the field had been evolving much more rapidly than she expected. "What I thought would take ten years has happened in one or two," she said. However, she also noted that the industry needs more people who can create great stories to move VR beyond a niche product(小众产品 ) and into the mass market. "The technology is already there. What continues to be lacking is good content," Fan said. "There's a certain amount, but we would love to see more."

【1】What is the main idea of the article?

A. China's box office numbers might see a slight decline in the coming years.

B. People don't need to mind their manners when watching VR movies.

C. Movie theaters in China will be increasingly challenged by virtual reality.

D. More and more Chinese online video sites have had their own VR channels.

【2】According to the article, Chinese people might be readier for VR movies than Westerners because .

A. China's box office numbers have been growing faster than those in the West

B. more Chinese people have experienced virtual reality than Westerners

C. China has been more supportive of the development of VR than Western countries

D. more Chinese people have been watching shows on handsets than Westerners

【3】According to the article, it could be hard for VR movies to move into the mass market until

A. VR movies become available in theaters

B. online video sites launch more VR channels

C. VR experience centers appear in smaller cities

D. there is a larger amount of good content

【4】Which of the following statements would Maureen Fan probably agree with?

A. VR movies will completely replace traditional movies sooner or later.

B. Virtual reality has been experiencing an enormous development.

C. Content matters more than technology when it comes to making movies.

D. The West will catch up with China in terms of the development of VR.

27、   An idea that started in Seattle’s public library has spread throughout America and beyond. The concept is simple: help to build a sense of community in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the same time.

In addition to encouraging reading as a pursuit(追求) to be enjoyed by all, the program allows strangers to communicate by discussing the book on the bus, as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools. The idea came from Seattle librarian Nancy Pearl who launched(发起) the “If all of Seattle Read the Same Book” project in 1998. Her original program used author visits, study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book, but the idea has since expanded to many other American cities, and even to Hong Kong.

In Chicago, the mayor (市长) appeared on television to announce the choice of To Kill a Mockingbird as the first book in the “One Book, One Chicago” program. As a result, reading clubs and neighborhood groups appeared around the city. Across the US, stories emerged of parents and children reading to each other at night and strangers chatting away on the bus about plot and character.

The only problem arose in New York, where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the huge and diverse population. This may show that the idea works best in medium-sized cities or large towns, where a greater sense of unity(一致) can be achieved. Or it may show that New Yorkers rather missed the point, putting all their energy and passion into the choice of the book rather than discussion about a book itself.

Finally, as Nancy points out, the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book, but by how many people are enriched by the process or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they would not otherwise have shared a word.

【1】What is the purpose of the project launched by Nancy?

A.To invite authors to guide readers.

B.To involve people in community service.

C.To encourage people to buy books to read.

D.To strengthen the communication among citizens.

【2】What changes did the program bring to Chicago?

A.More citizens chose to go to work by bus.

B.More and more reading clubs were founded.

C.Parents preferred to watch TV with their children.

D.Strangers talked about the mayor more frequently.

【3】Why was it difficult for New Yorkers to carry out the project?

A.They had little interest in reading.

B.They were too busy to read a book.

C.They came from many different backgrounds.

D.They lacked support from the local government.

【4】According to the passage, where would the project be more easily carried out?

A.In large communities with little sense of unity.

B.In large cities where libraries are far from home.

C.In medium-sized cities with a diverse population.

D.In large towns where agreement can be quickly reached.
