3、an give their leisure. 3. Mountaineering is a sport and not a game. There are no manmade rules, as there are for such games as golf and football.

Film is a medium that might have been especially made for America, a vast country which, by the beginning of the twentieth century, had a large immigrant population, many
13、 of whom could hardly speak English. These people would have had little use for the theatre, even if they lived within easy distance of one, or for most of the books they could buy because they did not have enough English. But the movies the silent movies these they could all understand, so what Ame
14、rica had more than any European country was a huge captive audience, a large proportion of them pretty well uneducated. And what these people wanted were simple stories in which, irrespective of the fact they couldnt understand the captions, the action told all. 2. In feeding the growing demand for
15、screen entertainment, America was greatly helped by the First World War. Between 1914 and 1918 the making of films was not exactly high on the list of any European countrys priorities. Films continued to be made but not to the same extent as before, and to fill the gap in foreign imports, America ha

Generally speaking the efforts to e
19、xtend the boundaries of film to show that it could do more than car chases, romance and clowning were being made elsewhere. In the 1920s in Germany, for example, expressionism was an artistic movement which used film as a medium. Expressionism is described in the Oxford Companion to Film as “a movem
20、ent whose main aim was to show in images mans inner world and in particular the emotions of fear, hatred, love and anxiety“. These days, most serious and sometimes not so serious films attempt to do something like that as a matter of course. 5. Meanwhile Russian film-makers were developing advanced
21、techniques in editing and montage using scenes to give background information, ideas and intellectual points. Hollywood was not slow to learn from its foreign competitors or to take on and adapt their ideas, but with regard to the style and content of film-making, it was and still is far more in the
22、 business of learning than of teaching. Questions 1-5 Directions: For questions 1-5, choose the best title for each paragraph from below.
