[00:32.81]Directions:
[00:35.76]For Questions 1-5,you will hear an introduction about
[00:40.83]the achievements of Steven Spielberg.
[00:45.37]While you listen,fill out the table with the information you've heard.
[00:50.55]Some of the information has been given to you in the table.
[00:55.22]Write only 1 word or number in each numbered box.
[01:00.37]You now have 25 seconds to read the table below.
[01:05.23]M:Today,Steven Spielberg's one of the world's best-known moviemakers.
[01:13.77]His 1993 movie,Jurassic Park,
[01:18.34]has earned more money than any other movie in history
[01:23.20]The gross topped $900 million in less than a year
[01:28.97]and was heading toward $1 billion with home video and other after-market releases
[01:36.42]That surpassed 1982's E.T: The Extra-Terrestrial,
[01:42.19]another Spielberg film which had been the top Hollywood moneymaker.
[01:48.36]In all,Spielberg's 15 movies have grossed more than $ 4 billion.
[01:54.89]Steven Spielberg's work embodies 1 a whole range of qualities
[02:00.74]that tell us a lot about Hollywood
[02:04.50]and the role of movies in our culture.
[02:08.76]He is a wonderful,audience-oriented storyteller:
[02:13.80]"I want people to love my movies,
[02:17.77]and I'll be a guide to get them into theaters," he once said.
[02:22.94]Spielberg's films also represent the charm and glamour 2 of Hollywood.
[02:28.58]Most are spectacularly filmed with dazzling special effects.
[02:34.25]And their box-office success has helped fuel the extravagances
[02:39.71]that are part of the image Hollywood cultivates for itself.
[02:44.88]But Spielberg is deeper than that.
[02:48.93]He entwines observations from his personal life
[02:53.79]into film commentary on fundamental human issues.
[02:59.36]So moviegoers entranced by Spielberg's adventure stories
[03:05.23]sometimes forget his serious works.
[03:09.60]His 1985 The Color Purple
[03:13.85]adapted from Alice Walker's Pulitzer Prize-winning book,
[03:19.31]was a painful,insightful account of a southern African-American family
[03:26.08]during the first half of the century.
[03:29.95]Schindler's List,his acclaimed 3 1993 account of the Second World War,
[03:37.21]flows from his own heritage.
[03:41.28]These movies,some say Spielberg's best,
[03:45.65]represent the potential of the medium to help us individually
[03:51.29]and collectively sort through the dilemmas of the human condition
