Only a few people in Toronto have the luck to live within walking distance from their workplace. For the rest of us, commuting(乘车上下班) is a rather unpleasant daily necessity.

So how do you avoid a traffic jam in Toronto? You can do it in the old way and listen to one of the radio stations that give regular updates about the traffic situation in Toronto's streets. Seeing the big picture of Toronto's traffic and knowing when and where heavy traffic occurs is a must. From my own experience, there are situations where a quick decision can help you make it in time for an event or a meeting. That's why we prepared three short videos showing the overall traffic situation in Toronto from dawn to night. You can click them and watch.

With the help of “Google Maps”, where you can watch the live traffic density all over the world and average traffic data based on past conditions, we were able to provide you with traffic maps for a typical(平常的) Friday.

Friday traffic in Toronto is quite fast in the early morning, with only a few hot spots showing up at the major junctions(交叉点) at 7：00 a. m. The morning traffic jam starts light at 7：30 and the traffic gradually slows down to reach a breaking point at 8：30. The roads are quite free afterwards, only Allen Road is likely to be jammed around lunchtime from 11：30 a. m. to 12：00 noon. It comes as no surprise that Friday afternoon brings heavy traffic as early as 1：00 p. m., mainly on the Don Valley Parkway. You won't have a good time getting away from the city from 4：00 p. m. to 6：30 p. m., as there is a good chance to get caught in a traffic jam. The traffic in Toronto is quite heavy on a Friday night. I hope you will have a nice Friday night in the city and a safe journey home this Friday!

1.By saying “commuting is a rather unpleasant daily necessity”， the writer refers to the fact that________.

A.buses are usually very crowded

B.they are often stuck in traffic jams

C.they have to travel a long way to work

D.they usually cannot do anything on the way to work

2.According to Paragraph 2, when you are in a traffic jam，you should________.

A.do nothing but to wait patiently

B.report your situation to a radio station

C.relax and enjoy some good radio programs

D.make a quick decision and find another way to go

3.What is the last paragraph mainly about?

A.What the traffic in Toronto is like for a typical Friday.

B.How to avoid heavy traffic on Friday.

C.Why the traffic is terrible on Friday.

D.What “Google Maps” can do for us.

4.In Toronto, on Friday you are most likely to suffer heavy traffic________.

A.from 6：30 a. m. to 7：00 a. m.

B.from 8：30 a. m. to 9：30 a. m.

C.from 10：30 a. m. to 11：00 a. m.

D.From 4：00 p. m. to 6：30 p. m.

Film has properties that set it apart from painting, sculpture, novels, and plays. It is also, in its most popular and powerful form, a story telling medium that shares many elements with the short story and the novel. And since film presents its stories in dramatic form, it has even more in common with the stage play: Both plays and movies act out or dramatize, show rather than tell, what happens.

Unlike the novel, short story, or play, however, film is not handy to study; it cannot be effectively frozen on the printed page. The novel and short story are relatively easy to study because they are written to be read. The stage play is slightly more difficult to study because it is written to be performed. But plays are printed, and because they rely heavily on the spoken word, imaginative readers can conjure up at least a pale imitation of the experience they might have been watching a performance on stage. This cannot be said of the screenplay, for a film depends greatly on visual and other nonvisual elements that are not easily expressed in writing. The screenplay requires so much “filling in” by our imagination that we cannot really approximate the experience of a film by reading a screenplay, and reading a screenplay is worthwhile only if we have already seen the film. Thus, most screenplays are published not to read but rather to be remembered.

Still, film should not be ignored because studying it requires extra effort. And the fact that we do not generally “read” films does not mean we should ignore the principles of literary or dramatic analysis when we see a film. Literature and films do share many elements and communicate many things in similar ways. Perceptive film analysis rests on the principles used in literary analysis, and if we apply what we have learned in the study of literature to our analysis of films, we will be far ahead of those who do not. Therefore, before we turn to the unique elements of film, we need to look into the elements that film shares with any good story.

Dividing film into its various elements for analysis is a somewhat artificial process, for the elements of any art form, never exist in isolation. It is impossible, for example, to isolate plot from character: Events influence people, and people influence events; the two are always closely interwoven in any fictional, dramatic, or cinematic work. Nevertheless, the analytical method uses such a fragmenting technique for ease and convenience. But it does so with the assumption that we can study these elements in isolation without losing sight of their interdependence or their relationship to the whole.

1.What is mainly discussed in the text？

A.The uniqueness of film.

B.The importance of film analysis.

C.How to identify the techniques a film uses.

D.The relationship between film analysis and literary analysis.

2.Why is it not handy to study film?

A.Because screenplay is not as well written as literary works.

B.Because a film cannot be effectively represented by a printed screenplay.

C.Because a film is too complicated.

D.Because publishers prefer to publish literary works.

3.From the third paragraph we learn that ________.

A.the means by which we analyze a literary work cannot be applied to the analysis of the film

B.a good film and a good story have many elements in common

C.we should not pay extra effort to study films

D.using the principles of literary analysis makes no difference in film analysis

4.Why can’t we divide film into various elements for analysis?

A.Because these elements are interwoven with each other and cannot be separated.

B.Because films cannot be written down and it is inconvenient to analyze them.

C.Because films elements are too complicated.

D.Because films need not to be analyzed in detail.
