19、atching a film are two very different experiences, but expectations can be high when a film of a favourite book is made. There are very many times I have been disappointed by a film of a book I love. So maybe highly regarded books do not always make good films. It is safe to say that great movies ma

20、y be made from not particularly good books. The source material may be anything from classic novels, short stones, comic books and stage plays, 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 r

21、emakes 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 only 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

22、 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 like the book” Another problem area is the cast. Whether suitable actors are found or not can mean the difference between success and failure. Reade

23、rs of the book use their imaginations to visualize characters and have very definite ideas about how characters look and sound. This is where I think many film adaptations fall down. Some books are just too difficult to film for technical reasons, although movies like The Life of Pi are changing thi

24、s perception. The impact of CGI technology has had a huge impact on the movie industry and allowed the previously unfilmable to become a reality. Sometimes authors are very involved in the process and many may even be the screenwriters. This can actually be a bad thing because they may be too close

25、to the material and find it difficult to adapt. At other times they are not the screenwriters, and there are instances where writers have been very unhappy with the film versions of their work. Roald Dahl and Stephen King are examples of this. Even more extreme was novelist JD. Salinger who made sur

BAdaptations of popular books. CAdaptatio

Atell us how disappointed the audiences are Bshow that many authors are involved in the process of making films Cprove that authors may not necessarily be good screen

28、writers Dshow some writers are against the idea of making books into films 3Which of the following presents the correct structure of the passage? IIntroduction CPCentral Point PPoint SpSub- point CConclusion 4What is the purpose of the passage? ATo argue that good books should be adapted to films. B

29、To persuade the audiences to accept the adaptations from books to films. CTo explain the reasons why many adaptations from books to films failed.
