4、ys,as well as non-fiction such as biography and autobiography,even those written by ghostwriters.All can work well,but why do many adaptations and indeed remakes fail with both cinema audiences and critics? A key question is obviously how close to the original the film is.Since a typical film is onl
5、y around two hours long,it becomes a question of what to leave out,and how to script the dialogue.Sometimes there may be changes to the plot,additions and even different endings to please producers,directors and test audiences.I,like many people,have often left the cinema feeling “the film is not li
6、ke the book”.

16、总词数；3可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。Dear Harry，I am glad to receive your letter._Yours sincerely，Li Hua一、完成句子1.end up2.All too often3.If so4.turn to5.make a choice6.With that in mind二、阅读理解1.A 推理判断题。根据第一段第一句和最后一句可知,观众期望值太高,会导致电影很失败,由此推断,降低观众的期望值可能会使观众对改编后的电影感到满意。故选A项。2.D 细节理解题。根据最后一段第三句可知,文章提到了小说家塞林格,目的是为了证明一些作家反对将
17、小说改编成电影的想法。故选D项。3.C 主旨大意题。通读全文内容可知,本文主要解释了为什么许多改编自书籍的电影最后失败了。故选C项。三、语法填空1have discovered考查时态、语态和主谓一致。时间状语“over the past decade”表明该句应用现在完成时，且social scientists与discover为主谓关系，故填have discovered。2on 考查介词。名词impact与介词on连用，impact on.表示“对的影响”。3putting/to put考查非谓语动词。 (put) regular exercise into your routine作主
18、语，表示主动关系和抽象概念，故填putting/to put。4suggesting考查非谓语动词。动词suggest与evidence之间是主谓关系，非谓语表示被修饰对象长久的特征，因此用现在分词suggesting作后置定语。5researchers考查名词。此处缺主语，再依据下一句中的“They found”可知，这里应用复数名词，指研究人员。6effectively考查副词。此处副词effectively位于动名词短语后作状语。7However考查副词。根据下文中的“many of us cant take exercise regularly”可知前后文在内容上形成对比，且空后有逗号
19、，故此处应用However。8what考查主语从句。分析句子结构可知，空处所填词引导主语从句，在从句中作动词mean的宾语，起双重代词的作用，故用what。9ourselves考查反身代词。此处意为“我们为自己做些事情”，主语与宾语指同一些人，故用反身代词ourselves。10started/should start考查固定句式。在“It is time (that).”句式中，that引导的从句的谓语用过去式或should do的形式。四、应用文写作Dear Harry，I am glad to receive your letter.
