Joey is loyal, encouraging and self-sacrificing, always putting others’ interests ahead of his own. He is a hard worker, who also loves to run and play. In short, he’s an ideal friend and a heroic character.

Here is the thing: Joey is a horse, who appears as the main character in Steven Spielberg’s new film War Horse.

It is based on Michael Morpurgo’s 1982 novel, which also caused the same-titled Tony Awards winning play.

The film follows the saga of Joey, a racehorse that’s trained for farm work under the loving care of Albert (Jeremy Irvine )after Albert’s drunk father Ted(Peter Mullan ) overpays for the animal at auction(拍賣會(huì)).

Then the World War I tears Albert and Joey apart. Joey is sold into the war effort for the British and starts his episodic adventures in Europe.

Splendidly staged, the battle plots in the film are visually astounding and impressive.

And with Spielberg’s unique, top-notch direction and storytelling skills, War Horse cannot escape its episodic nature, calling to mind another Spielberg film about the horrors of war and its effects upon soldiers and civilians—Saving Private Ryan.

While that film shocked with horrific scenes of bleeding, it relied on a company of easily-described characters and a focused storyline to present heroic themes.

Like Saving Private Ryan, War Horse clings to a series of characters, not only Albert, but also British officers, French civilians and German soldiers, who display courage in the face of danger. Everyone who comes in contact with Joey is either already in touch with their inner angel or is quickly moved to become more humane.

Although none of this covers the fact that we’ve seen this stuff elsewhere before, the lovely sentiment will steal your heart.

And the emotional signature of Spielberg can be felt as he establishes the relationship between the boy and the horse and the mood of the piece – there will be tears.

Therefore, calling this beautiful, dramatically incomplete film “ Saving Private Joey”, is entirely justifiable.

1.In common with “ Saving Private Ryan”, the film War Horse _________ .

A.is full of terrifying scenes of bleeding and killing

B.received the title of Tony Awards Winning Play

C.covers a lot of characters

D.tells the story happening in the Second World War

2.Which statement is true according to the passage?

A.War Horse is based on the same-titled novel by Steven Spielberg.

B.Joey is a heroic character because he saved many people’s lives.

C.Albert sold Joey into the war effort for Europe.

D.Joey came to Albert’s care after Ted paid a lot of money for it.

3.According to the passage, what does the underlined word astounding mean?

A.a(chǎn)stonishing

B.confusing

C.satisfying

D.disappointing

4.What is the best title for the passage?

A.Joey ─ a heroic race horse

B.Albert and Joey

C.Saving Private Joey

D.Spielberg’s Joey

In 1993, researchers at the University of California at Irvine discovered the so – called “Mozart Effect” – that college students who listened to ten minutes of Mozart’s Sonata for Two Pianos in D major (D大調(diào)) before taking an IQ test scored nine points higher than when they had sat in silence or listened to relaxation tapes. Other studies also have indicated that people gain information better if they hear classical or baroque (a style of art) music while studying.

It is said that Albert Einstein was an average student until he began playing the violin. "Before that, he had a hard time expressing what he knew," says Hazel Cheilek, orchestra director at Fairfax County's Thomas Jefferson High School. “Einstein said he got some of his greatest inspirations while playing the violin. It liberated his brain so that he could imagine." In the early 1700s, England's King George I also felt he would make better decisions if he listened to good music. Reportedly, Handel responded by composing his Water Music suites to be played while the king floated the Thames on his royal boat. Even Plato in ancient Greece believed studying music created a sense of order and harmony necessary for intelligent thought.

The deepest effects take place in young children, while their brains are growing. This year, the same researchers at Irvine’s Center for Neurobiology of Leaming and Memory found that preschoolers who had received eight months of music lessons scored 80 percent higher on certain tasks than other youngsters who received no musical training.

Music students continue to beat their non – arts peers (同齡人) on the SAT, according to the 1999 “Profiles of SAT and Achievement Test Takers” from The College Board. Students with coursework in music appreciation scored 42 points higher on the math section of the test than students with no coursework or experience in the arts.

All of this to say "you are the judge" but listening to Mozart certainly won't hurt you. My point always is that making music is preferable to passive listening and that listening to live music is always preferable to listening to recorded music. Mozart WILL NOT raise your IQ, but it might help you organize your thoughts better before taking a standardized test.

63.When people mention Albert Einstein, King George I and Plato, they believe that the effect of music is_______.

A.positive    B.negative    C.suspicious D.sensitive

64.So far researchers at the University of California at Irvine have done studies about_______.

A.college students who listen to rock music every day

B.people who hear classical music while studying

C.preschoolers with music lessons

D.music students in SAT

65.Which of the following is an opinion rather than a fact?

A.Handel composed Water Music to be played while the kind floated the Thames on his boat.

B.Mozart might help you organize your thought better before taking a standardized test.

C.Preschoolers with music training scored higher on object – assembly tasks.

D.Music students continue to beat their non – arts peers on the SAT.

66.What is the author’s opinion about music?

A.He thinks that listening to music is better than making music.

B.He has a doubt whether listening to Mozart will hurt the listeners.

C.He is sure that listening to the music of Mozart will raise people’s IQ.

D.He thinks that live concert is better worth listening to than recorded music.
