【阅读理解①】
When “Rise of the Planet of the Apes” was first shown to the public last month, a group of
excited animal activists gathered on Hollywood Boulevard.But they weren’t there to throw red
paint on fur-coat-wearing film stars.Instead, one activist, dressed in a full-body monkey suit, had
arrived with a sign praising the filmmakers: “Thanks for not using real apes (猿)!”
The creative team behind“Apes” used motion-capture ( 动 作 捕 捉 ) technology to create
digitalized animals, spending tens of millions of dollars on technology that records an actor’s
performance and later processes it with computer graphics to create a final image ( 图像).In this
case, one of a realistic-looking ape.
Yet “Apes” is more exception than the rule.In fact, Hollywood has been hot on live animals
lately.One nonprofit organization, which monitors the treatment of animals in filmed
entertainment, is keeping tabs on more than 2,000 productions this year.Already, a number of
films, including “Water for Elephants”, “The Hangover Part Ⅱ” and “Zookeeper”, have drawn the
anger of activists who say the creatures acting in them haven’t been treated properly.
In some cases, it’s not so much the treatment of the animals on set in the studio that has
activists worried; it’s the off-set training and living conditions that are raising concerns.And there
are questions about the films made outside the States, which sometimes are not monitored as
closely as productions filmed in the States.

In the mid-1990s, Tom Bissell taught English as a volunteer in Uzbekistan. He left after seven
months, physically broken and having lost his mind. A few years later, still attracted to the
country, he returned to Uzbekistan to write an article about the disappearance of the Aral Sea.
His visit, however, ended up involving a lot more than that. Hence this book,Chasing the Sea:
Lost Among the Ghosts of Empire in Central Asia,which talks about a road trip from Tashkent to
Karakalpakstan, where millions of lives have been destroyed by the slow drying up of the sea. It is
the story of an American travelling to a strange land, and of the people he meets on his way:
Rustam, his translator, a lovely 24-year-old who picked up his colorful English in California, Oleg
and Natasha, his hosts in Tashkent, and a string of foreign aid workers.
This is a quick look at life in Uzbekistan, made of friendliness and warmth, but also its darker
side of society.In Samarkand, Mr Bissell admires the architectural wonders, while on his way to
Bukhara he gets a taste of police methods when suspected of drug dealing. In Ferghana, he attends
a mountain funeral( 葬 礼 )followed by a strange drinking party. And in Karakalpakstan, he is
saddened by the dust storms, diseases and fishing boats stuck miles from the sea.

Mr Bissell skillfully organizes historical insights and cultural references, making his tale a
well-rounded picture of Uzbekistan, seen from Western eyes. His judgment and references are
decidedly American, as well as his delicate stomach. As the author explains, this is neither a travel
nor a history book, or even a piece of reportage.Whatever it is, the result is a fine and vivid
description of the purest of Central Asian traditions.
8. What made Mr Bissell return to Uzbekistan?
A. His friends’ invitation.
B. His interest in the country.
C. His love for teaching.
D. His desire to regain health.
9. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Developing a serious mental disease.
B. Taking a guided tour in Central Asia.
C. Working as a volunteer in Uzbekistan.
D. Writing an article about the Aral Sea.
10. Which of the following best describes Mr Bissell’s road trip in Uzbekistan?
A. Romantic.　　　　　B. Eventful.
C. Pleasant. D. Dangerous.
11. What is the purpose of this text?
A. To introduce a book.
B. To explain a cultural phenomenon.
C. To remember a writer.
D. To recommend a travel destination.

Some of the world’s most famous musicians recently gathered in Paris and New Orleans to
celebrate the first annual International Jazz Day. UNESCO(United Nations Educational, Scientific
and Cultural Organization)recently set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz music, its
significance, and its potential as a unifying(联合)voice across cultures.
Despite the celebrations, though, in the U. S. the jazz audience continues to shrink and grow
older, and the music has failed to connect with younger generations.
