一、阅读理解

My country's greatest symbol to the world is the Statue of Liberty(自由女神像), and it was designed by special care. I don't know if you've ever seen the Statue of Liberty, but if you look closely, she's holding not one object, but two. In one hand is the familiar torch we call the "light of liberty." And in the other hand is a book of law.

We're a nation of laws. Our courts are honest and they are independent. The President -- me -- I can't tell the courts how to rule, and neither can any other member of the government. Under our law, everyone stands equal. No one is above the law, and no one is beneath it.

All political power in America is limited and only given by the free vote of the people. We have a Constitution, now two centuries old, which limits and balances the power of the three branches of our government, the judicial（法庭的）branch, the legislative（立法的）branch, and the executive branch, of which I'm a part.

Many of the values that guide our life in America are first shaped in our families, just as they are in your country. American moms and dads love their children and work hard and sacrifice for them, because we believe life can always be better for the next generation. In our families, we find love and learn responsibility and character.

America is a nation guided by faith. Someone once called us "a nation with the soul of a church." This may interest you -- 95 percent of Americans say they believe in God, and I'm one of them.

1.How many objects are held in the hands of the Statue of Liberty?

A.One

B.Two

C.Three

D.Four

2.According the passage, all people are _____ under the law of the United States.

A.the same

B.different

C.sometimes different

D.sometimes equal

3.The Constitution mentioned in this passage is round _____ years old.

A.100

B.200

C.300

D.400

4.According to the author many of the values of life are first developed _____.

A.in school

B.in the family

C.in work

D.in college

5.From the passage we can easily see that _____.

A.the majority of Americans often go to church

B.the government plays a very important role in a law court

C.light music is popular with old people

Hollywood no longer rules South Korean cinema, which is breaking out all over. Since 1999 Seoul filmmakers have been turning out Asia’s first critically applauded films, and “My Wife Is a Gangster” and “Phone”are the most stunningly good examples. In the way Americans tour Hollywood, Asians visit Korea to see sites featured in their favorite movies.

Korea once looked to America for idea, but now the reverse is true. Hollywood is snapping up remake rights to dozens of Korean films. Madonna’s Maverick Films is remaking the horror film “Phone”. And DreamWorks recently bought the rights to another horror film “A Tale of Two Sisters.”To capitalize on all the attention, South Korea has moved aggressively to cast itself as the center of Asia’s film market.

The Seoul government and industry leaders are working to rank the Pusan Film Festival as Cannes（戛纳）East, the festivals where deals get done, a one-stop place where moviemakers can shop for financing, exports, even location. In preparation for the next Pusan Festival this fall, delegations from Indonesia, Malaysia, Taiwan and all over Asia have been flocking to Seoul to study the Korean film revival. “We look at Korea with an envious eye,”says one of Hong Kong moviemakers, “Filmmakers and audiences have found a real vibes (i.e. good atmosphere) between them, like in the 1970s and ’80s in Hong Kong.”

The Korean film industry, however, is still uphill struggle on the way. The annual receipts of Korean films ($580 million) are gaining on those of Asia’s largest film industry: India ($820 million) and Japan ($1.93 billion). Yet, Seoul financial markets still tend to see movies as cultural venture, rather than a business. As a moviemaking company in Korea, yet KangJeGyu Films had to team up with another filmmaker and an auto-manufacturer in a new company in order to win a listing on the stock market last year.

Despite the restriction, Korean films are capturing a rising share of the local and even Asian markets. The lesson of the Korean revival is that money should be invested both into films and into comprehensive theaters that can sustain a film culture.
