6、 Camerons science fiction hits such as Aliens， The Abyss and The Terminator may be surprised at his newest movie. Titanic is an oldfashioned romance with incredible special e筒eets. Titanic is an epic由at women will love to cry at. with a leading man (LeonardoDiCaprio) 5 that they will love to look at

7、. However， men will also have a good time at this movie. Theres plenty of action. from walls of water， to collapsing staircases. to falling smokestacks. Cameron also thoughtfully provided the beautiful Kate Winslet for the men to admire. In short， no one 4回 1. MJ工程硕士研究生英语基础掣肘量 from eight to eighty w

8、ill be bored watching Titanic (all three-plus hours of it! ) The plot is tried-and true. Kate Winslet plays Rose DeWitt Bukater. She is the only daughter of a Philadelphia society matron who has fallen on hard times. Rose and her domineering mother (Frances Fisher) are returning from vacation in Eur

9、ope. Cal Hockley (Billy Zane)， Roses finance is traveling with them. He is very rich， but very nasty. Only a self-centered， social-climbing mother could want this guy for a son-in-law. As anyone could easily predict， Rose doesnt love Cal. Why should she? He treats her like a piece of property. She i

10、s only marrying him to please her mother. In addition， Rose feels trapped by the social rules of the upper class. At the beginning of the movie， Rose recalls her trip on the Titanic， as . a slave ship， taking me back to America in chains. Suddenly， we see Rose running across the deck to commit suici

11、de by jumping off the ship. Cameron doesnt provide enough background for such a desperate act but he needed a way for Rose and the hero Jack Dawson (Leonardo DiCaprio)， to meet. The scene is unrealistic but it gets the job done. Jack is a poor but bold artist who had already noticed Rose from afar.

12、This is where the film starts to take off.It has all of the elegance and romance of a 1940s Hollywood film. In true Hollywood fashion， Rose introduces young Jack to civilized upper-class society， horrifying her mother and making her finance very jealous. In return， Jack shows her that you dont have

13、to be rich to have fun， and teaches her to spit like a man. The romance between Jack and Rose takes up the first half of the movie. Then the iceberg hits and we see Cameron at his best. The special effects are the most amazing that he (or any other director) has ever put on the screen. This is his t

14、rue streng由as a director. Of course， no film is without its faults. One major problem is that not enough is done with the minor characters. For example， Danny Nuccis role as Jacks friend is left completely underdeveloped. And Kathy Bates is wonderful as Molly Brown， but we dont see enough of her. In

15、 addition， the main characters are stereotypes. Rose is beautiful and sweet. Jack is poor but honest. And Cal is thoroughly evil. However， despite these faults， you will find yourself caring about and believing in these people. The computer-generated special effects are simply awesome. There will be

16、 no dollbt in your mind that the Titanic is sinking. However， other scenes， such as crowd scenes. are not as beIievable. Cameron uses computer images most effectively to connect the past to由e present. Forexample， he shows us the wreck of the Titanic lying on the floor of the ocean and then magically

With a price tag of $ 200 million， it will have to do very. very well both in由e United States and abroad.

What kinds of safeguards do people use in China? The Land of the Lock By Bob Greene Years ago in America， it was customary for fa

26、milies to leave their doors unlocked， day and night. In this essay， Greene regrets that people can no longer trust each other and have to resort to elaborate securisystems to protect themselves and their valuables. Although the author is writing his opinion， he uses many examples to reinforce his id

27、eas and to prove his thesis. In the house where I grew up， it was our custom to leave the front door on the latch at Unit 7 night. I dont know if that was a local term or if it is universal; on the latch meant the door was closed but not locked. None of us carried keys; the last one in for the eveni

28、ng would close up， and that was it. 5 Those days are over. In rural areas as well as in cities， doors do not stay unlocked， even for part of an evening. Suburbs and country areas are， in many ways， even more vulnerable than well-patrolled urban streets. Statistics show the crime rate rising more dra

29、matically in those allegedly tranquil areas than in cities. At any rate， the era of leaving the front door on the latch is over. 10 It has been replaced by locks， security chains， electronic alarm systems and trip wires hooked up to a police station or private guard firm. Many suburban families have

It is not uncommon， in the most pleasant of homes， to see pasted on the windows decalsannouncing that the premises are under surveillance by this security force or由at guard company. 15 The lock

Indeed， a recent public-service advertisement by a large insurance company featured not actuarial charts but a picture of a childs bicycle with the now-usual padlock attached to it. The ad pointed out曲at， yes， it is the insurance companies由at pay for stolen goods， but who is going to pay for what the new atmosphere of distrust and fear is doing to our way of life? 20 Who is going to make the psychic payment for the transformation of America from the Land of the Free to the Land of the Lock? For that is what has happened. We have become so us
