阅读理解。     Beijing -A recent Chinese blockbuster (轰动的作品)"A World Without Thieves" is based on the experiences
of a young migrant worker (民工) carrying 60,000 yuan on a train packed with thieves. But while the image
( 形象) of a warm-hearted but somewhat naive migrant worker may have made film fans chuckle ( 偷着乐),
it"s a sure bet that most of China"s migrant workers are yet to step into a cinema to admire it.
     "Forty yuan a ticket? I can"t afford it," said Shen Jie, a migrant worker at a construction site in
Dongzhimen, east Beijing.
     Shen found it hard to remember when he last watched a film, or what it was about."It must be 0 years
ago," he said.
     Though they are the builders of the nation"s theaters and cinemas, a limited cultural life is common among
China"s 20 million migrant workers.
     Shen arrived from East China"s Zhejiang Province in99. Life was better then; money seemed to come more
easily."Now, as more and more workers are rushing to the capital, it"s too hard to earn money, and none of us
dare think about watching films," he said.
     For many like Shen, the dream is earning enough to pay for their children"s education so they can find jobs
in the cities and say goodbye to the hardships of rural life forever. This drives them to work hard and save as
much as possible.
     With a monthly salary of less than 500 yuan, Shen has to send money home to his little son and silver-haired parents.
      In Shen"s small dormitory, which he shares with seven other co-workers, there is a well-thumbed copy of
a magazine published in 998.
      A recent survey by local media revealed (显示) that 80 percent of migrant workers spent their spare time
sleeping and chatting because of exhaust and a lack of income. The same survey found that 47 percent of
migrant workers have to work for more than 0 hours a day. Around 40 percent do not even possess a book,
and nearly 60 percent say they are dissatisfied with their cultural life.
      Like many of Shen"s co-workers, reading newspapers and hanging out in Beijing"s streets provide evening
entertainment. From China Daily1. We can infer from the passage "A World Without Thieves" is a film that _______. A. talks about experiences of a group of thieves
B. deals with the life of migrant workers
C. explains how to catch thieves on trains
D. attracts many migrant workers 2. As for the migrant worker, Shen Jie, ________. A. life was harder when he first came to work in Beijing
B. he enjoyed a lot of films ten years ago
C. his wish was to pay for his son"s education

B. the workers have so little to read that they often read the same magazine again and again
C. the workers enjoy magazines because they are easy to understand
D. the workers think highly of the copy of the magazine published in 998 4. The main idea of this passage is that migrant workers _________. A. lack cultural experiences
B. are not very well-paid in Beijing
