BWhen I was about eight years old, I decided that I wanted to be a famous film star when I grew up. Well, Im not a famous film star, but I do work for a film studio, and I do meet famous actors every day. Im a Foley artistI make the sounds that are added to films after they have been filmed.Why does this need to be done? Well, if actors are filming a fight scene, you cant expect them to really hit each other or break each others bones, so Foley artists have to find suitable sound. If you come into my studio and find me throwing wet towels (毛巾) at the wall and breaking carrots in half, dont worry. Im just recording a fight scene.When my kids were little, they loved our Christmas films because we always needed to record the sound of children walking on snow. It doesnt often snow in California, so I had to create the sound in the studio. I used to cover part of studio floor with salt crystals (晶体) and pour thick flour (面粉) over the top. Then I brought my kids and their friends to the studio so that I could record them walking in the “snow”. After the recording, they never wanted to leave; they stayed and played, they got “snow” in their shoes, on their clothes, even in their hair!These days studios use computers to create such common sounds as footsteps on snow. Some Foley artists see computers as a threat (威胁) but I welcome the new technology. A lot of “everyday” sounds used to take a whole day to create, so there was a lot of pressure (压力) to get everything done on time. With computers, theres a lot less stress and I can devote more of my time to creating unusual sound effects. As long as people keep coming up with new ideas for films, studios will need Foley artists to come up with the sounds for them.48. The writers job is to .A. copy actors voices B. arrange fight scenes C. help actors who are hurt D. record sounds for films49. How does the writer feel about his career?A. Hes sad because he wants to be an actor.B. He enjoys it even more now than at the beginning.C. He feels happy because he often works with his children.D. Hes angry because computers will make him lose his job.50. Most modern studios .A. spend a lot money on computers B. use a lot of common sound in filmsC. use computers for everyday sounds D. give Foley artists a lot of new ideasCEvery year, the French town of Menton hosts an event called the Lemon Festival in the world. The Lemon Festival usually takes place between mid-February until March. This is the second most important festival in France and draws in over 250,000 people.

The project was designed by rich holiday-makers and finally Menton became the place to spend the winter months. Kings and artists stayed in the great and comfortable hotels or their own fantastic houses. Because of its great success, the streets were beautifully planted with oranges and lemons in the following years. In order to develop tourism, in 1934 the Lemon Festival was officially (官方地) born.Sleepy Menton becomes a world of color during the festival time. People find it very exciting and full of fun. Smile and joy shine from happy faces everywhere. The festival is enjoyed for three whole weeks. Along with a daily Lemon and Orange Exhibition, parades on Sundays, fireworks on Thursday nights.Every year there will be a special theme for the Lemon festival.
