Read the following Terry Steven’s reviews of four great science fictions films For questions 1–10, choose from the reviews A–D The reviews may be chosen more than once

A 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)

One of the most controversial films of any genre, 2001: A

Space Odyssey came from a collaboration between the

director, Stanley Kubrick, and the science fiction writer,

Arthur C Clarke It’s not an easy film to sum up The plot

is mostly beside the point It involves a government

cover-up of something called the Monolith, and a

malfunctioning computer’s efforts to preserve the integrity

of a space mission Almost independently of this are

separate strands dealing with human evolution from

prehistoric times to the space age Many have attempted to

try and pin down this work with explanations about its

deeper significance and purpose, and to this day there are

heated exchanges about this But such attempts at analysis

may be missing the point What stays in the mind is the

impact the film has on the senses Even its strongest critics

never forget it There are long stretches where very little

happens, and for many the pace, or lack of it, is too much

to bear, but at the same time it is visually astonishing and

has a soundtrack of often dissonant classical music played

so loud that it often interferes with what characters say Its

visual style has probably had more lasting influence than

anything else about it The incredible attention to physical

detail showed the way to other film-makers, and critics

argue that despite modern computer graphics, some scenes

have never been bettered

B

D

Star Wars (1977)

It is almost impossible to argue against the inclusion of

Star Wars or its rather darker sequel Empire Strikes Back,

in any list of top science fiction movies Essentially westerns set in space, they cover the universal themes of good versus evil, while making the leading actors Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher deliver lines of mind-boggling absurdity on a regular basis The epic saga revolves around a battle between an authoritarian Empire led by the Emperor and his part-human, part-machine henchman Darth Vader on one side, and a small group of rebels on the other The emphasis, however, is not on exploring deeper problems of the human condition Nor,

unlike some film-makers, do the creators of Star Wars

trouble themselves with rooting their creations in the normal laws of physics; the force-wielding Jedi fight with theoretically impossible lightsabers and light-speed travel takes place in an implausible ‘hyperspace’ But the first

two Star Wars films have been the supreme blockbusters

and paved the way in creating franchises for toys, games and replicas that no major science fiction film can do without nowadays

Blade Runner (1982)

Whether you prefer the original, rather theatrical release with its bored-sounding narrator or the director’s cut of a

few years later (without a narrator), Blade Runner is

perennially placed in opinion polls among the top five movies ever made in the genre Directed by Ridley Scott, who was broadly inspired by a Philip K Dick short story

called Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, the film

revolves around Harrison Ford’s policeman, Rick Deckard, and his hunt for four cloned humans, known as replicants, in an authoritarian city state some time in the future Replicants, among them a fascinating character played by Rutger Hauer, have been declared illegal and Deckard is a ‘blade runner’, a specialist in exterminating them Adding to the interest is the issue of whether Deckard himself is a replicant This is never clearly resolved in the film, but fans continue to disagree over this point When it first came out, the reception was muted, but

it has grown in popularity and critics now lavish praise on

it ‘It was ground-breaking in some ways,’ says one prominent American writer on film, ‘but what it’s really about is something we’ve been interested in since the beginning of history: What is it to be human? Who are we? Where do we come from?’ That’s what makes it truly great

Alien is often remembered for the moment when an alien

creature bursts out through the chest of one of the crew

members on the spaceship This iconic moment has the

power to unnerve even the most cynical of contemporary

audiences The film has a lot more to it than that however

It is essentially an expertly made horror story set on board

a spaceship The alien life form which invades the

spaceship is very sinister but it is made all the more so by

the contrast with the portrayal of the ship’s crew They are

a bunch of very average people who sit around eating

pizza, playing cards and getting bored This contrast

between the crew’s very mundane existence and the sheer

awfulness of the alien is a very powerful one Very

striking too is Sigourney Weaver’s portrayal of the

reluctant hero Ellen Ripley She is a compelling screen

presence in this movie and it established her as one of the

top film actresses of her time

has increased by (12) _ 25 per cent over the last 70 years The results of the study show that the (13) _ human fingernail now grows about 3.5 mm a month, (14) _ just 3 mm seven decades ago Toenail growth, (15) _ only about 2 mm per month, was also up on the figure (16) _ in a similar

Researchers (17) _ the rapid increase down to changes in lifestyle, particularly the greater awareness of the importance of regular exercise and a healthy diet This, they point out, is in (18) _

on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 21 to 25

The Olympic Games have demonstrated Catalan pride, Greek history and Australian culture to the world, but the Beijing Games will be a more cosmic harbinger of where the world is going in the next century or three Take pollution, for example During try-outs recently, a stinging mass of what could be vaguely

described as air covered Beijing, much to the chagrin of the proud organisers We usually encounter doom

and gloom before every Olympics, fears of terrorism or gridlock, but this time it is the dark cloud of

pollution Beijing will ban specified vehicles on certain days, but with millions of car s in Beijing, how will people get around? By buses, authorities say New Yorkers who have been doused with bus exhaust in our narrow canyons may already be laughing derisively Good luck with that

Trang 4

Yet there is a tremendous upside to these Games: the exposure to modern China, including the Olympic architecture Next summer there will be swimming finals in Beijing's National Aquatics Centre Next door is the main Olympic stadium, nicknamed the Bird’s Nest because of the steel twig-like prongs woven together

To promote traditional feng shui balance between fire and water, the venues were placed side by side

“China Is Near.” This 1967 Italian film shows China as a symbol of the mysterious, the powerful, the future looming over everybody Lately, that title has been looping across the movie screen of my mind As the most populous nation in the world, China is using these Games to build and advertise itself to the world Everybody who has been to Beijing says the Chinese will be excellent hosts, providing water, food, accommodations, language skills and entertainment This is too important to botch

24 Why are the swimming pools next to the stadium?

A It assists fire prevention

B It displays harmony

C It exhibits their unusual architecture

D It shows they are interconnected

Read the following text from an article in a science magazine and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your

answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 31 to 35

Two species of the tiniest rodent are attracting considerable attention from the scientific community It is emerging that there are two types of very different male voles: the attentive, faithful prairie vole and the Don Juan of voles, the meadow vole The difference between the two that is currently engaging scientists lies not

so much in their species as in a single gene governing the brain's hormone chemistry With less than five percent of all mammals being monogamous, prairie voles are unusual for their kind The males choose only one female, protecting both her and their young, and helping to raise them to adulthood Their cousin species

is more mainstream, having several mates and disregarding any responsibility towards their offspring

The difference between such closely related species appears to be a hormone called vasopressin Where vasopressin receptors are present in the brain in large numbers, they facilitate pair-bonding By implanting additional receptors in meadow voles, scientists found that their behaviour changed and they became more like their home-loving cousins It is suggested that vasopressin acts as a reward system and is stimulated by contact with a regular partner, thus promoting monogamy There are also implications for human beings, not

so much in terms of fidelity, though of course there is ample demand for this, but more for the development

of social skills One extreme case where social skills are highly underdeveloped is autism It may be that lack of vasopressin or its receptors could lead to social stimulus being ignored or misunderstood It seems that even the humble vole may help shed light on some of the most complex of human behaviour

Trang 5

31 What is interesting scientists about voles?

A New types of male voles are emerging

B The species has two different types of male

C There is genetic variance in male voles

32 What does the writer say about the behaviour of male meadow voles?

A They are like most male mammals

B They are unusually protective of their young

C They mostly choose to have one mate

D They pay no attention to their mates

33 What can be inferred about male prairie voles?

A Scientists implanted receptors in their brain

B Scientists were able to change their behaviour

C Their brain is highly sensitive to vasopressin

D Their brain produces more hormones

34 What could be the main function of vasopressin for people, according to the text?

A It could be used to reward them

B It could help them stay at home more

C It could improve their social skills

D It could make them more faithful to their wives

35 How has studying the vole helped increase understanding of autism?

A It demonstrates why autistic people are not monogamous

B It explains why autistic people lack vasopressin receptors

C It gives a reason for autistic people not understanding social stimuli

D It shows how autistic people do not have well developed social skills
