完形填空。    Many people use email to communicate with each other. If you can surf the Internet, it is a great   1   to send
messages easily, quickly and as often as you like. No   2   is it necessary to find a pen or paper, not to   3   an
envelope or stamp.
    Are we missing anything by not writing paper letters to people? Must you take the   4   of writing them if you
want to receive such letters? Most people would probably answer, "No, it is a waste of paper   5  , and this is
a much better system." It is hard to be against such a viewpoint. However, I would like to try.
    I believe that the kinds of letters people   6   to write were probably more   7   than billions of emails sent
today. Of course, when it   8   to sending quick messages, email is the best. If   9   is important, email is
particularly useful.   10  , if you want really to touch someone, a letter is more personal.  11  letters are the most
personal. If you can type fast, you can put a lot into a letter, but it lacks (缺少) the special sense that comes
from seeing the handwriting. As long as it is understandable, it doesn"t matter how tidy it is. When someone sits
down and just writes to you, you will   12   that when you are reading it.
    Though I"m a teenager, I admit that I feel too   13   to receive a letter in the mail. I love seeing my name
written by hand on   14  . You make yourself a cup of coffee, sit down in a comfortable place, open your   15  ,
and enjoy everything that the person puts into those words just for you. What a gift!

    Indianapolis is the capital and largest city of Indiana, USA. With a population of 774000, it is one of the largest
cities in the world that cannot be reached by water. However, Indianapolis is a city through which many
railways, roads, buses, and planes pass. There are many factories that make cars, farm tools and electrical
things. These factories cause little pollution for the city. Bulter University, well known for engineering, and
the law and medical schools of Indiana University are in the city center. Nearby is the Indianapolis race course,
where the nation"s most famous car race is held every year on May 30th. 
    If you visit Indianapolis, you will be able to find your way around easily because most of the streets cross
each other like a chessboard. In the center of the city, called the circle, stands the Soldier"s and Sailor"s
Monument (纪念碑), 100 hundred meters high. Also in the center there are many buildings made of famous

    Where in the world can you take an hour"s train ride, and pass a forest, a London street, a scene from the
Wild West, and a burning building that never burns down? There"s only one place, and that"s Hollywood, in
California. The scenes you see from the tourist train are film sets(布景) in the Universal Studios, one of the
oldest and largest movie companies(公司) in the USA.
    A visit to Universal Studios brings back memories of great days of Hollywood, the films and the stars. But
they are only memories. Hollywood isn"t quite the same as it used to be. Costs have gone up and confidence has
gone down. Movie-makers are afraid to spend their money on expensive new ideas. Instead, they repeat old
ones.
    The film industry is changing fast. Teenagers still go out to the movies. The theatre is a good place to meet
friends away from home. But older people mostly stay home to watch series, like Dynasty have become as
important to Hollywood as expensive movies. These “soap opera”, as they are called, show rich, powerful
families living in beautiful homes and wearing beautiful clothes. But the actors and actresses are nearly all
middle-aged, like many of the people who watch them.
    Though it is soap opears that are keeping the film-makers of Hollywood in Business, big films are still being
made in America. But more and more of them are made outside Hollywood. New York is the most important
new center, but there are many others as well. Movie-makers have realized that they don"t need Hollywood any
more. Modern cameras and real houses instead of expensively made copies in a studio. Other states, especially
Florida and Texas, are working hard to take the film business away from California. They are offering better
working conditions and lower cost.
    But Hollywood is fighting back. The state of California is trying hard to keep its best-known industry.
1. From the passage, we know Universao Studios is ________.
[     ]
A. a very large park
B. a busy London street
C. a famous movie company
D. an old Hollywood movie
2. The movie industry in California isn"t as successful as before because ________.
[     ]
A. young people don"t go to movie theatres any more
B. there is strong competition from other states
C. its movie companies are in need of young stars
D. the state hasn"t put a development plan into action
3. Which of the following seems to be a threat (威胁) to Hollywood?
[     ]
A. The use of modern cameras and other equipment
B. The interest of middle-aged film stars
C. The making of TV series like Dynasty
D. The expensively made copies of scenes
4. What can we learn about "soap operas" from the passage?
[     ]
A. They are teenagers" favourits.
B. They are much more expensive.
C. They are less attractive.
D. They are cheaper and easier to make.
5. The passage mainly tells us ________.
[     ]
A. something about the film industy in the USA
B. the importance of soap operas in hollywood
C. the good old days of Hollywood
D. the film business in California
