第一节
A
Old and unrestored theatres are all around us and yet so unnoticed. A new photobook unveils their often
overlooked beauty.
Proctor’s Theatre, Newark, New Jersey
Although available outdoors from street sellers, food was banned in theatres to display respectability. In the
late 1920s, however, the operators in Proctor’s Theatre in Newark began to set up stands to improve the economic
situation during the Great Depression. Popcorn and Coke would become a significant part of the theatre’s income.
Proctor’s Theatre, Troy, New York
Originally opened as Proctor’s Fourth Street Theatre in 1914, it hosted famous comedians such as Jack Benny
and Bob Hope. From 1929, it was successively taken over, renamed as Proctor’s Troy Theatre and switched to
screening films. In the 1960s, it began playing second-run films before closing in 1977. It was listed on the
National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) in 1979. In 2010, the theatre was repaired but is currently not being
used today.
RKO Keith’s Flushing Theatre, New York
Originally opened in 1928, RKO Keith’s Flushing Theatre was designed by Thomas Lamb. In 1982, it was
listed on the NRHP. In 1986, the theatre was bought and closed by its new owner who planned to build a shopping
centre on the site, intentionally damaging the hall. In 2019, despite the preservation efforts, the hall was knocked
down to make way for a residential tower block.
Metropolitan Opera House, Philadelphia
The theatre was originally opened as the Philadelphia Opera House in 1908. In the 1920s, it was renamed as
the Metropolitan Opera House, showing silent films in addition to hosting various opera companies. In the 1940s, it
became a sports arena. In 1954, it was turned into a church. In the late 1990s, the building was purchased by Mark
Hatcher. The church and the developer came to an agreement on a repair for a music venue that was completed and
reopened in 2018.
1. In the late 1920s, Proctor’s Theatre in Newark set up stands to ________.
A. show respect for the guests B. increase the theatre’s income
C. promote newly released movies D. compete with the street sellers
2. What can we know from the passage?
A. RKO Keith’s Flushing Theatre is well preserved.
B. Proctor’s Theatre in Troy plays second-run films now.

3. What is the purpose of this passage?

B
Carol Heffernan, a 43-year-old woman from Oshkosh, Wisconsin, regularly felt worn out from working,
driving her two kids to school, and taking care of housework. But when COVID-19 hit in March, 2020 and the kids
were suddenly home all day and learning remotely, her usual weariness quickly turned into full-on exhaustion. “All
the extra responsibility and the mental load—it just added up,” she says. “I felt tired, and it wasn’t due to lack of
sleep.”
If there’s one thing many of us have in common, it’s that we’re tired. Doctors even have a name for it: “tired
all the time,” or TATT for short. The solution isn’t always as simple as getting more sleep; nearly a quarter of
