Just days after the January 4 premiere (首映) of
Hollywood blockbuster Avatar in China, the box offices
across the country had gone beyond 100 million yuan (around
$14.7 million), thanks to the enthusiasm of huge number
of Chinese movie fans. Estimates are that the total box office
may finally reach 500 million yuan.
Though almost every movie theater in big cities like Beijing and Shanghai gives Avatar top billing(最优先的档期), with as many as 20 show times a day, Chinese audience still find it tough to get a ticket. In Beijing, the Wanda Movie Theater in Shijingshan, the first IMAX theater in Asia, is the first choice for Avatar moviegoers. The theater shows the 3D IMAX version of Avatar five times a day, and tickets are generally sold out a day in advance.
In Shanghai, to get an IMAX ticket for Avatar can mean waiting in freezing weather all night for a show three days later. Shanghai local media reported that on Friday, around 500 people were queuing for tickets at 8 a.m. in front of the downtown Peace Cinema, including some who had waited for 12 hours. Movie fans came equipped with quilts, wooden stools and snacks, in a scene reminding of that at train ticket windows before the New Year, when huge numbers of Chinese travel to be with family.
For the 3D version of Avatar, ticket prices varied for different theaters and time slots(场次), ranging from 60 yuan to 120 yuan. Meanwhile, illegal tickets traders asked as much as 600 yuan for the IMAX version in Shanghai. The Peace Cinema is planning to raise the ticket price for the IMAX version to as much as 200 yuan from the current 150 yuan from Jan. 14 for some time slots.
A report by the People's Daily owes the difficulty in getting tickets partly to the lack of 3D screens in China. There are only 11 IMAX commercial theaters in nine cities across China. Because of this, people are traveling long distances to see the movie. In southern China, the IMAXequipped Dongguan Wanda theater has seen a huge coming of people from Guangzhou and Shenzhen. Wednesday afternoon, due to a technical breakdown of the system, the movie was stopped for an hour, and the sound didn't come together with the picture. In the end, the general manager of the theater had to beg forgiveness on his knees twice to lessen the angry audience who drove a long way to see the movie. The theater had to pay back each audience member the full ticket price as well as 200 yuan for traffic expenses.
The worldwide gross(总收入) for Avatar is now at $1.335 billion, second only to the $1.843 billion pulled in by Titanic,another film directed by Cameron. But how long will Avatar manage to hold its death grip around the number one spot?
1.The behavior of movie fans in Shanghai shows that .
A.the time slots of the film are not enough
B.people are too enthusiastic about the film Avatar
C.Chinese seldom have chances to enjoy Hollywood blockbusters like Avatar
D.the tickets for the film are harder to get than train tickets before the New Year
解析:上海影迷的行为是为了买到电影票,能观看《阿凡达》,由此可见大家非常喜欢这部影片,故选B。
答案:B
2.Chinese audience still find it difficult to get a ticket for Avatar because .
A.the weather is freezing and the queue is too long
B.the cinemas have raised the ticket price for Avatar
C.not many 3D screens are available in China
D.there are many illegal tickets traders in different cities
解析:从第二段最后一句“The theater shows the 3D IMAX version of Avatar five times a day, and tickets are generally sold out a day in advance.”及第五段第一句“A report by the People's Daily owes the difficulty in getting tickets partly to the lack of 3D screens in China.”可知答案。
答案:C
3.From“how long will Avatar manage to hold its death grip around the number one spot?”in the last paragraph, we learn that the writer .
A.thinks the film is sure to hold the number one spot
B.questions the truth of the number one spot of the film
C.concludes that the film Avatar is not better than Titanic
D.doubts whether the film can keep its popularity with the people
解析:联系上文这部影片很受欢迎及本句中的but可推知作者不确定这部影片是否能保持人们对它的青睐。
答案:D
4.The best title for the passage should be .
A.Hollywood Blockbuster Avatar Hitting China
B.Chinese People Kneeling Down for a Film
C.Lack of IMAX Theaters in China
D.Difficulty in Seeing Avatar in China
