I first met Paul Newman in 1968, when George Roy Hill, the director of Butch

Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, introduced us in New York City. When the studio

didn’t want me for the film — it wanted somebody as well known as Paul — he stood

up for me. I don’t know how many people would have done that; they would have

listened to their agents or the studio powers.

The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting

four years later had its root in the fact that although there was an age difference, we

both came from a tradition of theater and live TV. We were respectful of craft （技

艺）and focused on digging into the characters we were going to play. Both of us had

the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors: humorous, aggressive,

and making fun of each other — but always with an underlying affection. Those were

also at the core（核心）of our relationship off the screen.

We shared the brief that if you’re fortunate enough to have success, you should

put something back — he with his Newman’s Own food and his Hole in the Wall

camps for kids who are seriously ill, and me with Sundance and the institute and the

festival. Paul and I didn’t see each other all that regularly, but sharing that brought us

together. We supported each other financially and by showing up at events.

I last saw him a few months ago. He’d been in and out of the hospital. He and I

both knew what the deal was, and we didn’t talk about it. Ours was a relationship that

didn’t need a lot of words.

24. Why was the studio unwilling to give the role to author at first?

A. Paul Newman wanted it. B. The studio powers didn’t like his agent.

C. He wasn’t famous enough. D. The director recommended someone else.

25. Why did Paul and the author have a lasting friendship?

A. They were of the same age. B. They worked in the same theater.

C. They were both good actors. D. They had similar charactertics.

26. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 3 refer to?

A. Their belief. B. Their care for children.

C. Their success. D. Their support for each other.

27. What is the author’s purpose in writing the test?

A. To show his love of films. B. To remember a friend.

C. To introduce a new movie. D. To share his acting experience.

Terrafugia Inc. said Monday that its new flying car has completed its first flight,

bringing the company closer to its goal of selling the flying car within the next year.

The vehicle — named the Transition – has two seats, four wheels and wings that fold

up so it can be driven like a car. The Transition, which flew at 1,400 feet for eight

minutes last month, can reach around 70 miles per hour on the road and 115 in the air.

It flies using a 23-gallon tank of gas and bums 5 gallons per hour in the air. On the

ground, it gets 35 miles per gallon.

Around 100 people have already put down a $10,000 deposit to get a Transition

when they go on sale, and those numbers will likely rise after Terrafugia introduces
