　　Coming Soon'to a Theater Near You!

　　What are special effects?Do you enjoy movies that use a lot of special effects？

　　Dinosaurs(恐龍)from the distant past!Space battles from the distant future!There has been a revolution in special effects，and it has transformed the movies we see.

　　The revolution began in the mid-1970s with George Lucas's Star Wars，a film that stunned (使震驚)audiences．That revolution continues to the present，with dramatic changes in special-effects technology．The company behind these changes is Lucas's Industrial Light& Magic (ILM)．And the man behind the company is Dennis Muren，who has worked with Lucas since Star Wars．

　　Muren's interest in special effects began very early．At the age of 6，he was photographing toy dinosaurs and spaceships．At 10，he had an 8-millimeter movie camera and was making these things move through stop-motion．(Stop-motion is a process in which objects are shot with a camera．moved slightly,shot again，and so on．When the shots are put together,the objecto appear to move.)

　　Talk to Muren and you'll understand what ILM is all about：taking on new challenges.By 1989，Muren decided he had pushed the old technology as far as it would go.

　　He saw computer graphics(圖像)(CG)technology as the wave of the future and．took a year off to master it．

　　With CG technology,images can be scanned into a computer for processmg，tbr example，and many separate shots can be combined into a single image．CG technology has now reached the point，Muren says，where special effects can be used to do just about anything so that movies can tell stories bener than ever before．The huge success of Jurassic Park and its sequel(續(xù)集)，The Lost Word,the stars of which were computer-generated dinosaurs，suggests that this may very well be true.

　　1 6 The special-effects revolution began in the mid-1980s with Star Wars．

　　A Right??? B Wrong??? C Not mentioned

　　17 ILM is the company responsible for many of the changes in special- effects technology．

　　A Right??? B Wrong??? C Not mentioned

　　18 Dennis Muren started his schooling at a very early age．

　　A Right??? B Wrong??? C Not mentioned

　　19 At the age of 10，Muren was able to use computer graphics technology to make things move．

　　A Right??? B Wrong??? C Not mentioned

　　20 By the stop-motion process，many separate shots can be combined into a single image.

　　A Right??? B Wrong??? C Not mentioned

　　21? Muren feels that with CG technology,special effects can be used to make movies more expressive.

　　第一篇?????? Valuing Childhood

　　The value of childhood is easily blurred(變得模糊不清)in today's world．Consider some recent developments：The child．murderers in the Jonesboro，Ark．schoolyard shooting case were convicted and sentenced．Two boys，7 arid 8，were charged in the murder of an 11-year-old girl in Chicago．

　　Children who commit horrible crimes appear to act of their own will．Yet，as legal proceedings in Jonesboro showed，the one boy who was able to address the court couldll't begin to explain his acts，though he tried to apologize．There may have been a motive——youthful jealousy(妒忌)and resentment．But a deeper question remains：Why did these boys and others in

　　similar trouble apparently lack any inner,moral restraint?

　　That question echoes for the accused in Chicago，young as they are．They wanted the girl's bicycle，a selfish impulse corn．mort enough among kids．
