THE FUTURE OF ENTERTAINMENT
More than ever, media is separating into mass market blockbusters on the one hand and ‘niche’ products - attracting small groups of people with similar interests - on the other Everything else is struggling to compete
Joe Swanberg makes films about the romantic lives of young people in the city He shoots quickly with a digital camera and asks actors to wear their own clothes His low-budget films are hardly ever shown in cinemas By keeping his costs down and distributing digitally, Mr Swanberg is making a living
Technology was expected to help young people like him A few years ago it was predicted that the internet would vastly increase the supply of small independent films and other niche media products and increase their audiences That has certainly happened However, so has the opposite Blockbusters are also tightening their grip on audiences, whether it’s in the area of film, music, television or books The growth of both niche products and huge sell-out successes has been at the expense of the things in the middle which are just quite popular - the near-misses
There are several reasons why big hits still so well As in the past, people still want to have something to talk about with their friends Which is why talent shows such as ‘American Idol’ pretty much as well as they did ten years ago and why the latest blockbuster still breaks new records at the box office Research shows that people still choose blockbusters more often than less well-known books and films This is probably because people tend to try only things they have heard of - which for many people are limited to media-hyped blockbusters
(4)formats Blockbusters are doing well not in spite of the fact that people have more choice in entertainment, but because of it Imagine walking into a music shop which has more than 10 million songs, as iTunes does, all of them arranged alphabetically Making up your mind would be impossible So, rather than having to decide, it’s much easier to just grab what everybody is talking about
Is this increasingly more common separation into blockbusters and niches good or bad? It certainly makes life harder for media companies In a world where entertainment choices are growing, it is more important than ever to make a big impact with your product If it isn’t a hit, it will have to fight for attention together with thousands perhaps millions -of other -offerings The possibility -of failing can make people anxious and more conservative Television programmes must be successful quickly or they will be cancelled It is becoming even harder to talk the decision-makers in the movie industry into approving films if they are not confident there is a demand for them
Yet this can be a big advantage for consumers In the past, these powerful business people could get away with supplying content that was not that good to people who did not have much of a choice These days, with so many options, there is rarely nothing good on television So the media industry must raise its game Intelligent people naturally wish that more money were available to produce the kind of music, films and television programmes they like The problem is that everybody has different ideas about exactly what they want to watch Some may love watching a programme about the history of dance; others may want to spend an hour being told how to look after pet snakes But not many want to either of these things, which explains why such programmes are niche products There are only a few things that can be guaranteed to delight large numbers of people They are known as blockbusters
Question 25: In paragraph we learn that Joe Swanberg's films are A often bought on DVD B rarely seen in cinemas
C are made for young people in the city D usually low-budget costume dramas Question 26: As a result of these changes, media companies
(5)C can get financial backing quite easily
D tend to produce more unusual films than before
Question 27: According to paragraph 3, blockbuster success is because people A are reluctant to see films they’ve never heard of
B like watching and talking about reality shows C prefer to see famous actors in films
D only watch films recommended to them by friends
Question 28: What does paragraph say about the situation nowadays? A Consumers are benefiting from it
B Better films and TV programmes are being made C Making programmes is easier than before
D There is hardly anything good on television Question 29: What does 'they' refer to in paragraph 5?
A consumers B movie industry decision-makers C television programmes D media companies
Question 30: What impact has technology had on the movie business according to paragraph 2?
A Small independent film-makers are struggling to find an audience B Fewer young people are attracted to the industry
C Audiences are still enjoying blockbuster films
D There is more choice available in the middle market area Question 31: Paragraph indicates that people may
A be confused by the choice presented to them B choose niche films because of their availability C not understand all the different formats available D prefer to listen to music than watch films these days Question 32: What does 'it' refer to in paragraph 3?

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
The ability to conduct electricity is one of the key properties of a metal Other solid material such as silicon can conduct electricity but only effectively at certain temperatures Also, some substances such as salt (sodium chloride) can conduct when molten or when dissolved in water The ability of metals to conduct electricity is due to how their atoms bond together In order to bond together the metal atoms lose at least one of their outermost electrons This leaves the metal atoms with a positive charge and they are now strictly ions The lost electrons are free to move in what are known as a sea of electrons Since the electrons are negatively charged they attract the ions and this is what keeps the structure together
(7)only other common solid conducting material that pencil users are likely to encounter is graphite (what the ‘lead’ of a pencil is made from) Graphite is a form of carbon and again the carbon atoms bond in such a way that there is a sea of electrons that can be made to flow as an electric current Likewise, if we have an ionic substance like salt we can make the electrically charged ions flow to create a current but only when those ions are free to move, either when the substance is a liquid or dissolved in water In its solid state an ionic substance like salt cannot conduct electricity as its charged ions cannot flow
Electrical insulators are substances that cannot conduct electricity well either, because they contain no charged particles or any charged particles they might contain not flow easily Water itself is a poor conductor or electricity as it does not contain a significant amount of fully charged particles (the ends of a water molecule are partly charged but overall the molecule is neutral) However, most water we encounter does contain dissolved charged particles, so it will be more conductive than pure water Many of the problems that occur when touching electrical devices with wet hands result from the ever-present salt that is left on our skin through perspiration and it dissolves in the water to make it more conductive
(By Helena Gillespie and Rob Gillespie Science for Primary School Teacher OUP) Question 36 Electrical conductivity is _
A one of the most important properties of metals B one of the key properties of most solid materials
C impossible for any substance when it is dissolved in water D completely impossible for silicon
Question 37 The word “outermost” in paragraph mostly means _ A the lightest B nearest to the inside C furthest from the inside D the heaviest
Question 38 The atoms of a metal can bond together because _ A the lost electrons cannot move freely in the sea of electrons B they lose all of electrons
C electrons can flow in a single direction
(8)Question 39 The word “they” in paragraph refers to _
A charged ions B electric currents C charged particles D electrical insulators Question 40 According to the passage, a metal can conduct electricity due to _
A the absence of free electrons B its atoms with a positive charge
C the ways its atoms bond together D the loss of one electron in the core of its atoms Question 41 Salt in its solid state is not able to conduct electricity because _
A it has free electrons B its charged ions can flow easily C it cannot create any charge ions D its charged ions are not free to move Question 42 Which of the following could best serve as the title of the passage?
A Electrical Energy B Electrical Devices
