to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 39 to 43 People watch movies with their eyes What about people who are blind or have trouble seeing? How can they enjoy the visuals? When you think of the cinema, the phrase "watching a movie" probably comes to mind, and, in fact, moviemakers work very hard to make their films interesting visually But movies also contain stories, dialogues, music and sound effects - things that people don't need to see in order to enjoy Movie reviewer Marty Klein has created a website to help visually impaired people choose movies that they can follow themselves Klein gives movies a rating from to 10 A movie received a high rating if it has only a few main characters whose voices are easy to recognize Klein also liked interesting stories without many changes in time and place A large amount of dialogue between the characters was better than long silences or noisy action scenes His reviews are still online, but the site is no longer updated Of course, visually impaired people can enjoy many films when a friend explains the parts that can only be seen But that means that blind people cannot go to the movies independently To solve these problems, some movie theaters have begun to offer recorded audio descriptions of the movements, scenery, and special effects that other audience members can see on the screen Blind moviegoers receive a wireless headset to wear during the movie This allows them to listen to the narration while still hearing a movie's music and other sounds that surround them in the theater Another blind movie reviewer, Jay Forry, writes movie reviews that are published on his website He also writes for newspapers and is a guest on radio shows Forry gives movies one of five ratings, including, "So good, blind people will like it" and "I'm glad I couldn't see it." Forry became a writer after going blind at the age of 20, then he decided to go to college His first articles appeared in the college newspaper, and Forry's writing skills and sense of humor are what keep people reading his reviews or listening to them on the radio After "watching" The Sixth Sense, Forry commented that he thought the movie was excellent, but that he envied the boy who was the main character: "He had six senses, and I only have four." Jay Forry also notes that modem theaters now have excellent sound systems, something he appreciates more than the average moviegoer In the end, going to the movies should be a fun and exciting experience - for both the sighted and the blind Adapted from Baidu.com Question 39: What is the main idea of the article?
