Attraction of the Minions

When it comes to film, people usually favor good over evil, focus on the hero and ignore the supporting characters. _【1】 __

Originally comedic background characters in the film Despicable Me(卑鄙的我), these yellow pill-shaped nuts, have totally stolen the show and turned into a popular figure. This summer the characters debuted(首演) in their own self-titled movie in theaters abroad, having the second biggest opening weekend of all time for a cartoon film according to USA Today.

Recently, McDonald’s has been including Minion toys with kids’ meals in some areas, causing loyal fans to flock to the restaurant to collect them all. __2__ The movie’s huge popularity even surprised its writers. “We never knew the Minions were going to be so popular. It just became a force of nature,” the film’s co-writer Cinco Paul told the Los Angeles Times.

_3 __For many, the appeal is obviously their cuteness. Their simple nature can easily surpass cultures and age groups. Even children can draw them. Thousands of examples of fan-made Minion art from fingernails to Halloween clothes are visible on global social media platforms.

But there’s more to the phenomenon than just cuteness. US entertainment website Hit Fix explains that their way of communicating makes the creatures influential as well. __4 __ But it seems everyone can understand them through their exaggerated(夸張的) movements and expressions. More importantly, their childlike mannerisms is a brand of humor that wins hearts. “Clumsy, foolish Minions are recognized as the ultimate β personalities,” wrote Peter Debruge of US entertainment magazine Variety. They desire nothing more than to serve their most despicable master. __5__ "Perhaps we love Minions because they remind us of ourselves," Huffington Post associate Web editor Sara Boboltz wrote, "or an evil version of ourselves."

A. So what makes the banana-loving Minions a big hit?

B. Besides, their childlike manner entertains fans more.

C. And this evil characteristic arouses sympathy among humans.

D. Related video games, toys and other goods are sweeping the world.

E. Minions is a 2015 American 3D computer-animated family comedy film.

F. But when it comes to the Minions, these conventions go right out the window.

G. The largely speak in nonsense words with the occasional recognizable terms like “potato”.

【答案】

【1】F

【2】D

【3】A

【4】G

【5】C

【題目】To win an Oscar is an achievement at any age. To do so at 22, as Jennifer Lawrence has, is just amazing. Recently, the American star won Best Actress at Academy Awards for her role in the film The Silver Linings Playbook. According to Time magazine’s Richard Corliss, Lawrence is that rare young actress who “l(fā)ends a mature intelligence to any ro1e”.

But she insisted on finishing high school so she could give her full attention to her acting career.

【題目】At times my mom has been uncomfortable seeing these qualities in me. For example,when I was 12,I went to Puerto Rico all by myself to stay with my grandmother for the summer. My mom was extremely nervous about it. She kept telling me how things were different in Puerto Rico,to always put on sunscreen,not to wander away from my grandmother,and other warnings. She helped me pack and did not leave the airport until she saw my plane take off.

But despite her worries,she let me go on my own. As I moved into my teens,she continued to give me space to grow and learn,even when it might have been difficult for her. When I reached my senior year,I decided to move away for college. Once again I found that I differed from my peers:While many of them wanted to stay close to home,I couldn’t wait to be out in the world on my own. While my mom may not have been happy at the thought of my going away,she was supportive and excited for me.

One big thing I realized during my senior year,as my mom granted me more freedom,was that she actually believes in me and trusts me. That means a lot. Most of my life,and especially when I was little,the main person I tried to impress in my schoolwork or other things was my mother. I knew she expected nothing but the best from me. Sometimes it was hard to live up to her standards;getting a single B on my report card would make me feel bad because I knew she wanted me to have all A’s.

I know that her high standards have helped me stay focused on what’s important,like education,and made me who I am. I am thankful for her support and involvement in my life .Most of all I respect her. She is the strongest woman I know and that’s why I have turned out so strong and independent.

【1】When the author decided to go to Puerto Rico,his mother________.

A.wanted to go with him

B.worried about his safety

C.didn’t allow him to do so

D.a(chǎn)sked his grandmother for advice

【2】The author decided to move away for college to________.

A.be different from his peers

B.keep away from his mother

C.be independent in the outside world

D.make his mother unhappy

【3】We can learn from the third paragraph that the author’s mother________.

A.had a high expectation of him

B.was too strict with him

C.used to expect nothing from him

D.cared little about his learning

【4】In the passage,the author mainly wants to tell us________.

A.his long way to becoming independent

B.his good relationship with his mother

C.the importance of a mother’s trust and support

D.his mother’s deep love for him
