听力原文: Today I would like to talk about the early days of movie making in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Before the pioneering films of D. W. Griffith, film makers were limited by several misguided conventions of the era. According to one, the camera was always fixed at the viewpoint corresponding to that of the spectator in a theater, a position now known as the long shot. It was another convention that the position of the camera never changed in the middle of a scene. In last week's films we saw how Griffith ignored both these limiting conventions and brought the camera closer to the actor. This shot, now known as a full shot, was considered revolutionary at the time, for the Love of Cold was the name of the film in which we saw the first use of the full shot. After progressing from the long shot to the full shot, the next logical step for Griffith was to bring in the camera still closer, in what is now called the close-up. The close-up had been used before, though only rarely and merely as a visual stunt, as for example in Edwin S. Poter's The Great Train Robbery which was made in 1903. But not until 1908, in Griffith's movie called After Many Years was the dramatic potential of the close-up first exploited. In the scene from After Many Years that we're about to see, pay special attention to the close-up of Annie Lee's worried face as she awaits her husband's return. In 1908 this close-up shocked everyone in the Biograph Studio. But Griffith had no time for argument. He had another surprise even more radical to offer. Immediately following the close-up of Annie he inserted a picture of the object of her thoughts, her husband cast away on a desert isle. This cutting from one scene to another without finishing either of them brought a torrent of criticism on the experimenter.

听力原文: Today, most countries in the world have canals. Even in the 20th century, goods can be moved more cheaply by boat that any other means of transport. Some canals such as the Suez or the Panama, save ships weeks of time by making their voyage a thousand miles shorter. Other canals permit boats to reach cities that are not located on the coast. Still other canals drain lands where there is too much water, help to irrigate fields where there is not enough water. In places where it does not rain very often, irrigation canals drain water from rivers or lakes such as the lake behind the Aswan Dam on the Nile River, and provide the irrigation water. In places where there is too much water, canals can drain the water off the land for use in fanning. In Holland, acres and acres of land have been drained in this way. Since much of this drained land is below sea level, the water in the canals has to be pumped up to sea level. Dikes have been built in Holland to keep the sea from covering the land, as it did in the past. Canals are also used to carry water to mills and factories. The water from a river is kept at a higher level than the river until it reaches the wheel of the mill. Then the water is poured over un61 it reaches the wheel of the mill. Then the water is poured over the mill wheel, making it turn. The same principle is used in more modern factories and in hydroelectric generating plants. The force of the water, falling from a certain height, provides a cheap way of producing electricity.(30)A.Cheaper and sometimes faster.B.More expensive, but faster.C.Cheaper. but more dangerous.D.Moro expensive and slower.
