1、 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
If you're an aspiring director that wants to start a successful film career, you should start by creating your first short film. While it can seem like a daunting task at first, with the proper strategies, creating a short movie is just a matter of having good ideas and utilizing common filming techniques.
Think of an idea for a short film.
Focus on one core idea so that the short story isn't overly complicated. Consider what kind of tone you want for the film and whether it will be a horror. drama, or experimental movie.
If you don't want to write your own script, you can search online for scripts that other people have already written. If you plan on shooting your short film to make a profit, make sure to reach out to the screenwriter to get their permission to use it. Some screenwriters will sell you their script for a fee.
Look for locations. Find locations to match the script. Ask small businesses and shops if you can use their locations for a short film. If the film takes place indoors, you may be able to use your own apartment or house. If the shoot is happening outdoors, find a safe and legal place to film.
Rehearse the scene. Once the actors get onto the set, have them go through a basic reading of the script. Then, have the actors act out the scene. As they go through the scene, tell the actors what you want them to do, how to interact with the environment, and let them know of any modifications that you want to see in their acting. The read through of the script can be done anywhere, but you should try to do the blocking on set.
In addition, if the actors have to wear a cultural or religious piece, be sure to study it. Don't just throw the piece on. If you are on a tight budget, you can have the actors provide outfits from their own wardrobe, but make sure that what they find meets your vision.
A. Search for scripts online.
B. Be as accurate as possible.
C. Do a rough cut of the scenes.
D. This process is known as "blocking the scene".
E. Select filming equipment that meets your needs.
F. Think of a short story that you want to tell in under 10 minutes.
G. Getting permits to shoot on private or public property can sometimes be very expensive.

Let's say you're in the far future and you're looking for evidence of previous civilizations. Where would you look? The first place would be in the rocks. Rocks keep time. Recently, the discovery of rocks made from plastic debris(碎片)in Brazil's volcanic Trindade Island is sparking alarm. Melted plastic has become twisted with rocks on the island, which researchers say is evidence of humans growing influence over the Earth's geological cycles.
Plastic rocks have been previously found in various parts of the world. Researchers documented plastiglomerates—rock, sand and other debris fused together by melted plastic一in Hawaii in 2014, for instance. Another human-made and plastic-based rock is pyro plastics. Described in 2019 from the shores of Cornwall in southwest Britain, pyro plastics form from burned plastic waste. In laboratory experiments with white or colored plastic pieces, if burned, the plastic melts and forms a gray or black mass, resembling at first glance a rocky pebble. According to geophysicist Douglas Jerolmack, ""all around the world where there's trash being openly burned in mass quantities, you can imagine there are even larger melted plastic deposits" where plastiglomerate could form.
Plastic pollution making its way into the formation of rocks suggests humans are having an effect on what was previously considered a natural occurrence, said Santos, who along with others is continuing research into plastic pollution on Trindade Island. "This is new and terrifying at the same time, because pollution has reached geology, "Santos told Reuters. The finding of plastic rocks also suggests, some experts say, that a new geological epoch has begun: The Anthropocene epoch. Regardless of whether this represents a new epoch, Santos said, "the pollution, the garbage in the sea and the plastic dumped incorrectly in the oceans are becoming geological material preserved in the Earth's geological records. "
The researchers are yet unsure of the environmental impacts of plastic rocks. Burned plastic can contain high concentrations of potentially toxic elements, like lead and chromium, derived from the pigments used to dye the plastic material. Buried in the ground, plastic has the potential to survive millions of years and even enter the geological record.
(1)、Why does the writer raise a question in the first paragraph?A、To introduce the text topic. B、To test the readers' knowledge. C、To present a study finding. D、To raise the readers' awareness.(2)、What can we know about plastiglomerates?A、They are rarely seen in the rocks. B、They look like rocky pebbles if burned. C、They are white or coloured plastic pieces. D、The more trash is burnt, the more they will be.(3)、What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?A、Plastic pollution has greatly changed the formation of rocks. B、The impacts that plastic rocks bring still need some further study. C、Geological materials preserve human's irresponsible behaviour to environment. D、Buried plastic in the ground is unlikely to survive after entering the geological record.(4)、What can be a suitable title for the text?A、Plastic Rocks: The Root of the Environmental Impacts B、Plastic Rocks: The Geological Record of Human Development C、Plastic Rocks: The Markers We're Laying Down in Deep Time D、Plastic Rocks: The New Geological Materials We're Unsure of -

Speaking a native language that requires tones appears to boost perception(感知) of melody, but at the cost of rhythm, researchers report April 26 in Current Biology. The massive global study hints at how language skills seep into other areas of cognition. Tonal(声调的)languages use pitch to distinguish words that otherwise might sound the same. In Mandarin, for instance, md means horse whereas m means mother. Non tonal languages like Spanish sometimes include pitch changes to suggest emotion, for example, but not to change a word's meaning.
As a Mandarin speaker and flutist, Jingxuan Liu wondered about the crossover between language and music. While studying psychology as an undergraduate at Duke University, Liu helped analyze the musical abilities of nearly half a million people from 203 countries. Her colleagues had launched anon line game in which participants completed several musical tasks, including identifying matching melodies at different pitches and finding beat tracks that fit songs' rhythms.
On average,native speakers of the 19 represented tonal languages were better at the melody task compared with speakers of 29 no tonal languages. And the effect wasn't small—a tonal first language enhanced melodic perception by about half the amount that music lessons did, which was also surveyed. But tonal language speakers tended to be worse at the rhythm task.
Humans must be choosy about what they pay attention to. Pitch patterns are vital in tonal languages, which might explain the musical trade-of. "You've got a finite resource of attention, and you've got to allocate that somehow, "says study coauthor Courtney Hilton, a cognitive scientist at the University of Auckland in New Zealand.
Prior research on language and music often compared just two tongues, usually English and Cantonese or Mandarin. But other cultural influences,such as Eastern and Western music styles, could have affected results. By examining a wide range of people, the new study included languages never assessed in this way and reached more general conclusions. "Our result here is showing that the language someone speaks—which is an important part of culture—also shapes cognition, " Hilton says.
(1)、What do the underlined words "seep into" in the first paragraph mean?A、Enter gradually. B、Control constantly C、Damage slightly. D、Understand completely.(2)、What information can we get from the musical tasks of Jingxuan Liu's colleagues?A、Tonal languages determine our music abilities. B、Tonal first languages can take the place of music lessons. C、Tonal language speakers perform better in the rhythm tasks. D、Tonal languages help native speakers to better acquire melody.(3)、Which of the following statements does Courtney Hilton most agree with?A、The musical trade-off enhances human cognition. B、The musical abilities boost human perception of melody. C、A limited span of attention accounts for human musical trade-off. D、English and Cantonese or Mandarin affect human musical abilities.(4)、What is the text mainly about?A、Native language influences human culture. B、Native language might shape musical ability. C、Native language is an important part of culture. D、Native language enhances human melodic perception. -

Johannes Fritz, a biologist, needed to come up with a plan, again, if he was going to prevent his rare and beloved birds from going extinct.
To survive the European winter, the northern bald ibis(朱鹭)—which had once disappeared entirely from the wild on the continent—needs to migrate south for the winter, over the Alps, before the mountains become impassable. But shifting climate patterns have delayed when the birds begin to migrate, and they are now reaching the mountains too late to make it over the peaks, locking them in an icy death trap. Determined to save them, Mr. Fritz decided he would teach the birds a new, safer migration route by guiding them himself in a tiny aircraft. And he was confident he could succeed in this daring, unconventional plan because he had done it before.
Mr. Fritz was his young pupils' sole provider of food, love and cuddles since they'd been just a few days old, and the ibises eagerly followed their teacher. He learned to fly, modifying an ultralight aircraft so it would cruise at speeds slow enough for his winged students to keep up. In 2014, three years after some initially bumpy experiments,Mr. Fritz led the first flock from Austria to Italy, and has since led 15 such migrations. Over that time, he has rewilded 277 young ibises, many of which then started to pass the route on to their own young. For now, however, the main worry is getting the birds to follow the aircraft. "While they have a strong bond with their 'mothers' and follow them around on the ground, flying is more difficult, " Fritz said.
'Fly Away Home was a huge hit with us biologists, "Mr. Fritz said, recalling the 1996 movie in which characters lead the migration of orphaned Canada geese in a hang glider. When Mr. Fritz proclaimed he'd do the same with the ibises, he was initially ridiculed. But through years of trial and error, he succeeded. He even learned to fly like a bird, he said, soaring with ease. Mr. Frita's two sons, both now teenagers, followed their flying father and the migrating birds on the ground, and his family and colleagues witnessed the risks he was taking. But the inevitable risks are "necessary", Mr. Fritz said.
"It's not so much a job, " he added. "but my life 's purpose. "
(1)、Why did the northern bald ibis fail to migrate south for the winter?A、The impassable mountains. B、The late arrival of Mr. Fritz. C、The daring and unconventional plan. D、The shifting climate patterns.(2)、According to Paragraph 3, what is Fritz's present concern?A、Complicated situations in the flying. B、The fast speed of the aircraft. C、A strong attachment to their mother. D、Limited migration support.(3)、What can we know from paragraph 4?A、Mr. Fritz was heavily favoured by those around. B、Mr. Fritz was greatly inspired by the 1996 movie. C、Mr. Fritz set a ridiculous example for his two sons. D、Mr. Fritz convinced people around to witness the risks.(4)、How does the author feel about Mr. Fritz?A、Imaginative and honest. B、Strong-willed and purposeful. C、Generous and easygoing. D、Energetic and open-minded. -

My dad is a truck driver, and when I was little, he was gone most of the time. So my mom was almost likc a single mother. My parents and I lived in a small house in Brighton,Colorado,where we had a big yard. We moved there on my third birthday.
My first memory was our neighbor Arlene handing me strawberries from her garden through a hole in the chain-link fencc. She and her husband, Bill, lived next door.Arlene spent a lot of time working in the garden, and I was always talking to her from our yard. I was a chatter-box. I think what drew me to Arlene and Rill is that they never got tired of listening to me gab(闲聊).I also think Arlene saw a lot of herself in me-we were both lonely, anxious-and that may be why she always took the time to listen to me. Bill too. It was a wonderful connection.
One day,my parents asked Bill and Arlene whether they'd watch me while they went out on a date.This worked well for everyone, so it became a somewhat monthly thing. In fact, Arlene and Bill didn't have kids. They had a spare room in their house, which became "my room".I had a cabinet and boxes of toys and books in that room. Arlene and I would do crafts together.Bill taught me how to ride a bike and later how to drive the lawn tractor and eventually a car. He was always fixing something in his garage. I would wander over to talk to him, and he would always stop and listen to me,just like Arlene did.
When I was about five, I had an idea. My parents were watching TV when I spit it out: "What if I accepted Bill and Arlene as my grandparents?" My parents said I could go over and ask them by myself.
注意:

Schedule It
The best way to stick to a plan is to schedule the days and exact times, and set a reminder.,so you can always see it. Or you can take time cach morning to write in a journal and cross things off as you go along!
Be Flexible
.You may have to move your workouts around! Be flexible with changing days or times,and just know this may happen. Find a balance between being accountable and going casy on yourself when things don't go according to plan.
Move Throughout the Day
Exercise should never be limited to that 30 minutes each day. It benefits you a lot to set a daily step goal on your smartwatch, phone, or pedometer and try and move every hour.Take the stairs when possible. Walk instead of driving..
A.Find time available
B.Things may come up unexpectedly
C. Focus on some programs full of challenge
D.Do the thing you love or try something new
