For me, one of the greatest pleasures in life is going to watch a great film at the cinema. It's a chance for me to get away from real life. There's nothing better than being lost in a story unless, of course, someone decides to break down the moment.

    Whether at a cinema or a huge theatre, someone usually decides to treat the place like their own home! There is an accepted way of behaving at the cinema which some people don't seem to understand.

    To start with, some people always turn up late, causing you to rise from your seat to allow them to go past. Then, when you want to enjoy the surround﹣sound effects, someone begins to enjoy their drinks and popcorn and thus makes a lot of noises. And what I can't stand most is people who decide to chat to their friends, sometimes not even about the film.

    I'm not alone in this situation. Simon Mayo, a film critic at the BBC, experienced a "new low" during a film. He says, "The woman in front of me got a mirror out, then her boyfriend got a phone out and used the light on it to allow her to do her make﹣up!"

    Simon has helped to create a list of rules on how moviegoers should behave at the cinema. One of them is no use of mobile phones, and another is not to take your shoes off﹣﹣a most serious offence(冒犯)!

    Of course, when we have paid for a ticket, we feel it is our right to relax and enjoy the film in the way we want to, but we mustn't forget our fellow moviegoers who want to enjoy the cinematic experience, too.

    The best choice for anyone wanting to break the rules of cinema manners is to get a DVD and watch it at home. But we all know that the best way to enjoy the art of cinematography is on the big screen.      

    What about you? What annoys you about other people at the cinema?

(1)Why does the writer enjoy going to the cinema ?  

A. It makes him feel like being at home.

B. It gives him a moment to stay away from real life.

C. He prefers watching the films on big screens.

D. He wants to enjoy the cinematic experience.

(2)What is considered by Simon to be the rudest at a cinema ?  

A. Using mobile phones.

B. Chatting to their friends.

C. Taking the shoes off.

D. Having drinks and eating popcorn.

(3)"  "is the best sentence to fill in the blank in Paragraph 7?

A. Don' t break the rules!

B. Manners are important!

C. Just stay at home!

D. It's your choice!

(4)Which of the following can be the best title for the passage ?  

A. Popular Cinemas.

B. A Serious Problem.

C. Cinema Manners.

D. An Unpleasant Experience.

People use their mouths for many things. They eat, talk, shout and sing. They smile and they kiss. In the English language, the word “mouth” has many meanings. But some of them are not so nice.
For example, if you say bad things about a person, the person might protest(抗议) and say “Do not bad mouth me.”
Sometimes, people say something to a friend or family member that they later regret because it hurts that person’s feelings. Or they tell the person something they were not supposed to tell. The speaker might say, “I really put my foot in my mouth this time.” In other words, he might feel sad for saying the wrong thing.
Sometimes when one person is speaking, he says the same thing that his friend was going to say. When this happens, the friend might say, “You took the words right out of my mouth!”
Some people have lots of money because they were born in a very rich family. There is an expression for this, too. You might say such a person “was born with a silver spoon in his mouth.”
This rich person is the opposite of a person who lives “from hand to mouth.” This person is very poor and only has enough money for the most important things in life, like food.

Workers wear them. Swimmers wear them. Scientists wear them. Woodcutters wear them. People who play sports wear them. Goggles protect the eyes. They keep out water and chemicals. They keep out bits of wood or stone. They might look funny, but goggles do serious work!

    Why do people need to wear goggles? They need to keep their eyes safe.Many things can hurt our eyes. Have you ever gotten a piece of sand or dirt or other small particle in your eye? What happens? It hurts. Your eye begins to fill with tears. Those tears are your body's way of getting the sand or dirt out of your eye. Sometimes this works. Your eye feels much better.

    But what happens if your tears don't work? What happens if the piece of sand has gotten stuck in your eye? Eyes are delicate. They can be scratched or cut easier than skin(皮肤). If the particle is not washed out by tears, you might have to go to the doctor. You could even have problems seeing out of that eye.

    Instead of waiting to see if tears will help, some people use goggles. This can prevent things from getting in their eyes at all. If they use goggles, their eyes are protected from the things that can cause problems. Goggles are a better way to protect eyes. They are made of plastic or glass, and they are tied around your eye area. Some of them hook behind your ears like glasses. Other goggles have a strap (带子) that goes around your head. Both kinds stay right where you put them until you take them off. That way, you can use both hands to work or play sports, and you don't have to worry about something getting in your eyes.Your eyes are safe, and you can get busy working or playing!
