to each of the questions

Views concerning advertising aimed at children differ widely in Europe In Sweden it is considered unacceptable and is banned for children under 12 with the approval of the majority of the population In France advertisements are seen as part of preparing children for future life in a consumer society

There seems to be agreement that certain regulations at least are necessary However, the degree to which advertising to children is regulated again varies widely from country to country In the UK, there are rules on food advertising, health, hygiene, safety and decency and there are restrictions on broadcast time (for alcohol, medicines and slimming products) Greece has a ban on advertisements for children's toys between 7 am and 10 pm and a total ban on advertisements for war toys

Children's reactions to advertisements can be very different from grown-ups If adults see a product advertised and don't find it when they go shopping they forget about it As children develop the ability to recognise and understand ads they start making demands If these demands are not fulfilled they might start throwing themselves to the floor It is difficult to explain to young children why they cannot have everything which – according to advertising – is “for them”

Children's personal preferences can be targeted and changed by TV advertising If adults, who are able to deal with ads, could not be influenced in their decisions to buy products then no company would spend millions on

advertising Research has confirmed the influence of the media upon the close match between children's tastes and

the content of the programmes they watch Teachers say they know what has been on TV the night before by the games the children play the next day The effectiveness of advertising increases when the ads are shown in

between or around programmes aimed at children, or when children perceive an advertisement to be made “for them” as, for example, with toys or breakfast cereals

Advertisements today are not so much about the products but rather about the character of the consumers and how they should feel when they use or possess the advertised product Messages to children are all about the happiness, social status or success which accompany the possession or consumption of a certain toy or type of food Media can shape children's preferences for different toys, TV characters, lifestyles, etc at different ages Children's preferences are formed by the media and presented to them again in advertising Children who are exposed to a lot of advertising are thus educated about a particular lifestyle: they are educated about living in a consumer society They learn certain attitudes — the importance of money, what products are needed, how they are

to be used and how products are supposed to make them feel

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 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 hat America had more than any European country was a huge captive audience, a large proportion of them pretty ell uneducated And what these people wanted were simple stories in which, irrespective of the fact they couldn’t understand the captions, the action told all

In feeding the growing demand for 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 lit of any European country’s priorities Films continued to be made but not to the same extent as before, and to fill the gap in foreign imports, America had

to increase its won production By the end of the decade, with Hollywood now firmly established as the center of the

industry, America a well on its way to monopolizing the world market

But if by the beginning of the 1920s America was the world leader in film production, it was not then—nor has it been since—in the lead hen it comes to developing film as an art form Hollywood is not interested in art; it is interested in money and the two rarely go together To Hollywood film is, and really always has been, an industry There is nothing about this attitude that should make us look down on it Hollywood quickly recognized film as an entertainment medium with a unique ability to put people onto seats and money in the pockets of producers,

distributors and cinema managers and, mostly, left it to other to develop its potential a an art form

Generally speaking the efforts to extend 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 movement whose main aim was to show in images man’s 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

Meanwhile Russian film-makers were developing advanced 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 business of learning than of teaching

Question 41: Why did the large immigrant population in America prefer cinema to other entertainment media? A.They did not have theatres close enough to their homes

B They could not afford to buy books

C The language of other entertainment media was too difficult

D The film captions were in simple English

Question 42: How did the First World War help the American film industry?

A.More films were made in America because fewer European films were made

B European films were shorter and poorer in quality

C There was a greater demand for films during the war

D Film production was given a high priority during the war

Question 43: What do we learn about the American film industry around 1920?

A.American art films were not as successful as those from other countries

B More films were made in American than anywhere else

C More films from America were seen in the world than from any other country

D The Americans were the first to develop film as an art form

Question 44: What does the author think about Hollywood?

A.He despises Hollywood’s interest in making money

B He wishes Hollywood would make decent films

C He thinks Hollywood films are no better than furniture

D He doesn’t see anything wrong in Hollywood’s approach

Question 45: The word “monopolizing” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _

A.dominating B converting C privatizing D investigating

Question 46: According to the passage, which of the following is true?

A.By the 1920s, Hollywood became the world leading film producer quantitatively and artistically

B It is common for us to find films which are not only true art but also gain a lot of money for their producers

C Unlike furniture mass-producer, Hollywood should be looked down on for their moneymaking attitude
