Of the several films Hirokazu has made about childhood and children, this one is the most modest, but no less pleasing for its delicate style and small setting. I Wish was originally called Miracle, and the change is for the better. The two-word title makes you want to know who’s wishing for what, while the single word sounds plain and self-praising. This wise and funny film works small miracles in describing such a moment when kids turn from the wishfulness of childhood into shaping the world for themselves.

The sweetly reflective hero, a sixth-grader named Koichi, starts out by wishing for a volcano to erupt. Not just any volcano, but the one that towers above his town, smoking heavily and giving off ash. An eruption would lead to a withdrawing, which would lead, at least in his mind, to a reunion with his father and kid brother, who’ve been living in Hakata while Koichi lives with his mother and retired grandparents in Kagoshima. The volcano, knowing nothing of this, refuses to erupt, but Koichi hears of another approach to realizing the desired miracle.

One of the pleasures of I Wish is watching how kids behave — how Koichi attacks his dinner, for example. Another pleasure is rediscovering how kids think. These kids can be logical and ever so tricky. But children’s thought processes can also be fancy. A boy wishes he could play baseball like one of baseball stars, who eats curry for breakfast; so he, too, starts eating curry for breakfast, instead of practicing on the field. Another boy tries to wish his dead dog, Marble, back to life. And what does Koichi finally wish for? I wish you’d see this delightful film to find out.

1.Why has the name of the film been changed from Miracle to I Wish?

A. The former is controversial and self-praising.

B. The former isn’t related to the content of the film.

C. The latter is easy for audience to remember.

D. The latter is easier to arouse audience’s interest.

2.Koichi wishes the volcano to erupt so that he can ________.

A. enjoy the wonderful scene of a volcano

B. help those who suffer from the eruption

C. get together with his family members

D. work miracles during the disaster

3.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A. I Wish is a film set in a volcano eruption.

B. I Wish shows a lively and thoughtful world of children.

C. I Wish shows audience some dull and ridiculous behaviors.

D. I Wish is a serious science fiction movie.

4.What does the writer intend to do in this text?

A. To share pleasures of watching a film.

B. To make a review on a film.

C. To discuss kids’ behavior and thoughts.

D. To recommend a film.

Forgiving someone who has hurt you or let you down is never an easy thing. Several new studies, however, say that it could have a lot of health benefits. When you think of forgiveness, you probably don’t think of it as being a health or medical problem. Studies from Stanford University, on the other hand, show that something like anger can change your well-being.

When cartoon book characters like the Incredible Hulk get angry, they change colors and often gain special power. In the real world, anger is less obvious and may be more dangerous. That’s why Professor Fred Luskin, founder of the Stanford Forgiveness Project and author of Forgive for Good, says holding on to anger and hatred can harm your physical and mental health. Two new studies seem to show the same idea.

The studies find that people who are able to forgive feel less stress, less back pain, and less depression. They also have fewer headaches, lower blood pressure, and fewer problems on sleeping.

So it doesn’t matter if your anger is caused by the traffic or other things. Learning to let it go is important. Techniques such as deep breath or thought can help. Or just ask yourself if it’s worth hurting yourself by staying angry with someone else.

Forgiveness does not mean that you simply accept what happened and say it’s OK. Instead, it’s a way of making peace with yourself about what happened in the past.

1.The example of the cartoon book characters is taken in the passage to______.

A. support the viewpoint that anger and hatred harm physical and mental health

B. introduce a famous expert

C. let the reader know the different colors of cartoon faces

D. show how to control one’s temper

2.The underlined phrase “holding on to” in this passage possibly means“______”.

A. removing    B. keeping up    C. getting rid of    D. learning about

3.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in this passage?

A. People who are able to forgive feel less stress.

B. People who are able to forgive feel less depression.

C. People who are able to forgive have fewer problems on sleeping.

D. People who are able to forgive feel less tired.

4.The best title for this passage is probably _______.

A. Forgiveness                        B. Forgiveness Is Good for Health

C. A Secret to Keeping Health            D. Anger Is Bad for Health
