7、 Good Book, Bad Movie? They say that “a picture is worth a thousand words (一图胜千词)”, but the briefest (brief) look at books and the movies based (base) on them would have anyone questioning (质疑) this common saying. All too often, great words end up being turned into (结果却变成) cinematic “turkeys”. Good

8、movies need good stories. If so, why has one of the earliest (early) and greatest works in Western storytelling (讲故事), Homers The Odyssey, never had an equally (equal) great movie based on it? Movies need strong characters. So why have the movies based on (基于) The Great Gatsby never been praised (pr

9、aise) as “great”? Movies of course need impressive (impress) images, so why has Alice in Wonderland 爱丽丝梦游仙境 only resulted in movies best described (描述) as “interesting”? One of the key reasons (reason) behind this is that while a book usually takes a few days to read (read), a movie typically (typic

10、al) lasts under two hours, This means that great books can lose plot details (情节的细节) and characters when they move to the big screen. This is something that even the highly successful Harry Potter movies cant escape from, with fans of the books disappointed (失望的) not to see some of their favorite ch

11、aracters (人物) in the movie versions. Movies also disappoint us when things dont look the way we imagined them in the books. Take, for example, the epic movie Troy, which is in part based on Homers The Iliad and was met with mixed reviews from the audience (来自观众褒贬不一的评论). The most questionable issue (

12、最有争议的问题) was the actress chosen (chose) to play the part of Helen (扮演海伦的角色). Many people thought she didnt live up to (符合) Helens title (头衔，称号) of “the most beautiful woman in the world”, influencing (influence) opinions of the movie to some extent (在一定程度上). There are a thousand Hamlets in a thousan

13、d peoples eyes. (一千个读者就有一千个哈姆雷特) Furthermore (此外), books and movies are two different forms of media (媒体形式) and therefore (因此) have different rules. With this in mind, perhaps we should judge (评判) a movie in its own right (凭借自 4-3 身), and not against its original source (原始来源). Interestingly (intere

14、st), in recent years audiences have turned to (turn to) television series (电视连续剧) such as Sherlock or Mad Men, which can have many characters and gradual plot development (逐渐的情节发展). Perhaps, one day, readers of F. Scott Fitzgeralds most admired (admire) work will find themselves glued to (发现自己被吸引) t

19、 One of the key reasons behind this is that reading (read) a book needs more time than watching a movie, which means that great books can lose plot details and characters when they move to the big screen.

20、om. Movies also disappoint us when things dont look the way we imagined (imagine) them in the books. Different people have different views.

21、. Task 3: Gap filling 答案请参考课本答案请参考课本 _ 课文翻译请参考下文：课文翻译请参考下文： 好书坏电影？好书坏电影？ 人们常说“一图胜千词”，但是简单对照一下书籍和由之而改编的电影，就会让人们开始质疑这 一说法。很多时候，优秀的文字作品最终却变成电影中的失败之作。 好的电影需要好的故事。 若是如此， 那为什么西方叙事文本中最早且最优秀的作品之一荷 马的奥德赛从未产生过同样优秀的改编电影呢？电影中需要个性鲜明的人物。那为什么基 于了不起的盖茨比改编的电影从未被称赞为“优秀”呢？电影当然需要令人印象深刻的画面，那 为什么由爱丽丝梦游仙境改编的电影顶多被称为“有点意思”呢

22、？ 这背后的一个重要原因是， 一本书通常需要花几天的时间来阅读， 而一部电影通常不会超过两 小时。这就意味着优秀的书籍被搬上大银幕之后，会删减一些情节和人物。这是连大获成功的“哈 利 波特”系列电影也无法避免的事情， 有些书迷因为在电影中没看到自己最喜欢的一些角色而感到 失望。 电影呈现出的事物与我们读书时的想象的有落差时， 我们也会备感失望。 以史诗电影 特洛伊 为例，该电影部分改编自荷马的伊利亚特，观众对它的评论褒贬不一。其中最有争议的问题在 于扮演海伦的女演员。许多人认为她配不上海伦“世界上最美丽的女人”这一称号，这在一定程度上 影响了人们对这部电影的看法。 一千个读者就有一千个哈姆雷特。 而且书籍和电影是两种不同的媒体形式， 因此也遵循不同的 原则。考虑到这一点，也许我们应该基于电影本身而不是将其与原始版本进行对比来评价电影。值 得注意的是，观众已经逐渐将兴趣转向了神探夏洛克或广告狂人这样的电视连续剧，因为 电视剧能展现更多人物，情节也得以逐步展开。也许有一天，F. 斯科特 菲茨杰拉德最杰出作品的 读者们，会发现自己已被了不起的盖茨比的剧集深深吸引。
