Question

【題目】閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

(2012年沈陽模擬) They're so young! What sets apart (區(qū)別) the new TV adaptation (改編) of the classic novel A Dream of Red Mansions is the youthfulness of the players.

The producers made a great effort to bring in young actors. Most of them were born in the late 1980s and 1990s. At the same time, a team of 20somethings was given responsibility for adapting the novel for TV screens.

It is unusual for a director to pick a group of young people with little scriptwriting (寫劇本) experience to take on such a big task. Most would expect the job to be given to more seasoned (經(jīng)驗(yàn)豐富的) writers.

“I understand why director Li Shaohong has taken this unusual approach，” writes movie critic Raymond Zhou in China Daily. “She wants the drama to resonate (共鳴) with today's young people.”

Besides giving the remake a youthful flavor, Li also wanted to go back to the original. The popular 1986 adaptation left out many important parts of the novel that were considered superstitious (迷信的) back then. For this adaptation Li wanted strict faith to A Dream of Red Mansions, to make sure young audiences will get a real sense of the novel.

However, since people know the 1986 adaptation so well, they compare the old and new shows. The costumes, makeup and scenery in new drama are controversial (被爭(zhēng)論的). Nie Lina, 16, of Yantai No.1 High School in Shandong Province, believes it is a bad idea for actors to have such strange hairstyles. The actors remind me of Peking Opera performers, not people living in Qing Dynasty time. Li Youran, 16, of Nanjing Foreign Language School, complains the music is strange and some scenes are scary. She also believes the actors are not playing in the spirit of the characters.

But Zhou defends (捍衛(wèi)) the remake as an attempt at faithful adaptation. The value of the adaptation of a novel should be judged (評(píng)價(jià)) by how faithful it is to the novel—it shouldn't be judged against another adaptation. However, Zhou also argues that a director has the right to make his or her own work of art：an artist has the right to interpret (闡釋) a classic based on his or her own understanding...You may not like it, but you cannot deny (否認(rèn)) him or her that right.

【解析】 新版《紅樓夢(mèng)》已經(jīng)在全國(guó)播映，你對(duì)這部新改編的電視劇感覺如何呢？

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段的第二句話可知，新改編的《紅樓夢(mèng)》與老版的不同之處就在于演員的年輕，故答案選B。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段的內(nèi)容可知，導(dǎo)演李少紅之所以挑選年輕的演員是為了想讓這部新劇能和現(xiàn)在的年輕人產(chǎn)生共鳴，從而喜歡這部新劇，故答案選A。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第五段的第一句話“Besides giving the remark a youthful flavor，Li also wanted to go back to the original.”以及第三句話“For this adaptation Li wanted strict faith to A Dream of Red Mansions”可知，除了年輕，導(dǎo)演還想使這部新劇更加忠實(shí)原作，故答案選C。superstitious迷信的；sensible理智的；unexpected難以預(yù)料的。

【4】詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)seasoned所在的句子的前一句可知，對(duì)于一個(gè)導(dǎo)演來說，選擇沒有寫劇本經(jīng)驗(yàn)的年輕人來負(fù)責(zé)這么一個(gè)大任務(wù)，是不尋常的，大多數(shù)人都會(huì)預(yù)料導(dǎo)演應(yīng)把工作交給更加有經(jīng)驗(yàn)的(experienced)作家去做。故答案選D。

【5】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段的第二句話可知，周認(rèn)為劇本的價(jià)值應(yīng)該由是否忠實(shí)于原作來判斷，所以認(rèn)為忠實(shí)是正確的，故答案選C。A項(xiàng)沒有提到，而B項(xiàng)和D項(xiàng)犯了張冠李戴的錯(cuò)誤。
