A brief introduction of Harry PotterHarry James Potter is the title and the main character of J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter fantasy series. The books cover seven years in the life of the lonely orphan(孤儿) who, on his eleventh birthday, learns he is a wizard. He attends Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to learn magic. Under the guidance of the kindly headmaster Albus Dumbledore, Harry discovers that he is already famous throughout the wizarding world(巫师界), and that his fate is tied with that of Lord V oldemort, the universally feared Dark wizard who killed Harry's father and mother.Second to fourth booksIn the second book, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets《哈利·波特与密室》, Rowling pits Harry against Tom Marvolo Riddle, Lord Voldemort's "memory" within a secret diary which has possessed Ron's younger sister Ginny Weasley. When Muggle-born students are suddenly being petrified, many suspect that Harry may be behind the attacks, further alienating him from his peers. In the climax(高潮), Ginny disappears. To rescue her, Harry battles Riddle and the monster he controls that is hidden in the Chamber of Secrets. In the third book, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Rowling uses a time travel premise. Harry learns that his parents were betrayed(背叛) to Voldemort by their friend Peter Pettigrew, who framed Harry's godfather Sirius Black for the crimes, condemning him to Azkaban prison. When Sirius escapes to seek revenge, Harry and Hermione use a Time Turner to save him and a hippogriff named Buckbeak. But Pettigrew escapes, and an innocent Sirius remains a hunted fugitive.In the previous books, Harry is written as a child, but Rowling states that in the fourth novel, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, "Harry's horizons are literally and metaphorically widening as he grows older." Harry's developing maturity becomes apparent when he becomes romantically interested in Cho Chang, a Ravenclaw student. Tension mounts, however, when Harry is mysteriously chosen by the Goblet of Fire to compete in the dangerous Triwizard Tournament, even though another Hogwarts champion, Cedric Diggory, was already selected. It is actually Voldemort'selaborate scheme to lure Harry into a deadly trap. During the Tournament's final challenge, Harry and Cedric are teleported to a graveyard. Cedric is killed, and Voldemort, aided by Peter Pettigrew, uses Harry's blood in a gruesome ritual to resurrect Voldemort's body. When Harry duels Voldemort, their wands' magical streams connect, forcing the spirit echoes of Voldemort's victims, including Cedric and James and Lily Potter, to be expelled from his wand. The spirits briefly protect Harry as he escapes to Hogwarts with Cedric's body. For Rowling, this scene is important because it shows Harry's bravery, and by retrieving Cedric's corpse, he demonstrates selflessness and compassion. Says Rowling, "He wants to save Cedric's parents additional pain.” She added that preventing Cedric's body from falling into Voldemort's hands is based on the classic scene in the Iliad where Achilles retrieves the body of his best friend Patroclus from the hands of Hector. Rowling also mentioned that book four rounds off an era in Harry's life, and the remaining three books are another, "He's no longer protected. He's been very protected until now. But he's very young to have that experience. Most of us don't get that until a bit later in life. He's only just coming up to 15 and that's it now."。

Unit 4 Films and film eventsAs a spokesman of China's Film Festival,I introduced our film festivals to the worldand as a representative of Chinese films aswell, I attended some international filmfestivals. The following are the important film events around the world.The Cannes Film Festival is the largest, the most famous and exciting festival throughout the globe. Films shown at Cannes are often made with large budgets, and have wellknown actors and directors. If a film wins here, everyone will h ear about it. But in recent years, it has begun to resemble the Academy Awards in Hollywood, losing its edge as the best international film festival in the world and a broad range of films from many different countries. Next to Cannes is the Toronto International Film Festival. Each year, famous actors, actresses and directors e to Toronto and the entire film world pays attention to who wins here.The oldest film festival on the earth is the Venice Film Festival, which is an annual festival that began in 1932. It includes only highquality films regardless of who makes them and without any restrictions on the kinds of films.But the Sundance Film Festival deliberately boycotts all Hollywood films, whose main criterion for being included is that the film must be small, independent and not be financed by Hollywood studios. The initial idea for the festival was hatched in 1978, but it was not well known until 1981 when Robert Redford became its sponsor and changed the focus to independent films. He wanted to expose the public to films made outside of the Hollywood system that ordinary people might have no access to otherwise.作为中国电影节的发言人,我把中国电影节介绍给世界;作为中国电影的代表,我也参加了一些国际电影节。
ReadingImportant film events around the worldHost: Welcome to our weekly programme, Movie Magic. Our guests today are representatives from six of the major international film festivals. These spokeswomen and spokesmen will tell us about the festivals they represent. Joining us in the studio are Isabel Rose from the Cannes Film Festival, Hanz Muller from the Berlin International Film Festival, Kathy Barnes from the Sundance Film Festival,Maria Bella from the Venice Film Festival, Mike Taylor from the Toronto International Film Festival and Xu Li from the Shanghai International Film Festival. Welcome, everyone! Maria, do tell us a little about the Venice Film Festival.Maria: Well, I think it is rather appropriate for me to begin our discussion. The Venice Film Festival is the oldest film festival in the world. It is an annual festival that began in 1932. Our festival is part of a larger festival which applauds contemporary art. We view film as a particular type of contemporary art.Host: Kathy, please tell us about the Sundance Film Festival.Kathy:Unlike the Venice Film Festival, the Sundance Film Festival only includes small, independent films. That is, the main criterion for being included is that the film must not be financed by Hollywood studios.Maria: Kathy, I don’t like to argue, but in defence of the Venice Film Festival, I have to point out that we don’t just have Hollywood films. Our policy is to include high-quality films, regardless of who makes them. We make no restrictions on the kinds of films we show—as long as a film’s quality meets our standards, we include it. Kathy:The Sundance Film Festival deliberately boycotts all Hollywood films, and we don’t foresee ever including them. The initial idea for our festival was hatched back in 1978, when it was known as the Utah/US Film Festival. However, it was not well known until 1981. It was then that Robert Redford became its sponsor and changed the focus to independent films, often made on very modest budgets. It was given its new name—the Sundance Film Festival—in 1991. Redford has acted in and directed many big Hollywood films, but wanted to expose the public to films made outside of the Hollywood system that ordinary people might have no access to otherwise. Nowadays, if a film wins an award at Sundance, there is a good chance it will become famous!Kathy:Cannes is another festival that can make films famous. Many films are first shown to the public at the Cannes Film Festival, and if a film wins, everyone will hear about it. I think it is fair to say that Cannes is the most famous and exciting festival.Hanz:I hate to contradict you, but in recent years, the Cannes Film Festival has shown special favour to American films. Some people remark that it has taken a step backwards, and is beginning to resemble the Academy Awards in Hollywood too much.Isabel: Well, yes, films shown at Cannes are often made with large budgets, and have well-known actors and directors. Many of them are American, but we reject the idea that we have lost our edge as the best international film festival in the world. We always show a broad range of films from many different countries. In fact, the Cannes Film Festival was started in 1939 because many people felt the Venice Film Festival was giving awards to only German and Italian films.Hanz:Well, in my opinion, the Berlin International Film Festival is one of the most international of all the film festivals. Since it began in 1951, we have given awards to films from all around the globe. At our festival, Hollywood films are in the minority, while films that are likely to be overlooked at other festivals, for example at Cannes, have a real chance of becoming champions.Mike:I’m the spokesman for the Toronto International Film Festival, which began in 1976 and soon became one of the major film festivals around the world. Each year, famous actors, actresses and directors come to Toronto, and the entire film world pays attention to who wins. It is the second largest festival in the world—only Cannes is bigger. We show films from many countries, though we do give some special awards to Canadian films.Xu Li: I represent the Shanghai International Film Festival. Our festival was founded in 1993, so we are perhaps the youngest festival. Even though we have only existed a short time, our festival has a good reputation worldwide. We have entries from many different countries and give the ‘Jinjue’ Award, or Golden Cup Award, to the film thatwe think is the best.ProjectHarry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone (2001)What an amazing film! Who has not dreamt of finding out that he or she is really someone special and famous? That fantasy is reality for Harry Potter (played by Daniel Radcliffe). Harry, a sensitive young boy who has a scar on his forehead, has been living with his relatives, the Dursleys. His uncle abuses him, his aunt ignores him, and his cousin hates him. At first, Harry thinks that his parents were killed in a car crash when he was a baby. However, he later finds out that his father was a wizard and that his mother was a witch, both of whom were murdered by an evil wizard—the same wizard who gave Harry the scar. Harry discovers that he possesses a wizard’s powers too, and that he already has a reputation in the world of witches and wizards because of his parents.Hagrid (played by Robbie Coltrane) is a very large person who works at Hogwarts, a special institution for young witches and wizards. He comes to rescue Harry from the Dursleys and take him to the school. They have a few adventures along the way, and Harry is introduced to a whole new world he never knew about—the world of magic. The world of ordinary people exists parallel to the world of magic, but the ordinary people are not aware of it.On the train to school, Harry makes two new friends, Ron Weasley (played by Rupert Grint) and Hermione Granger (played by Emma Watson). Together, they learn about their new school and the special curriculum there. Harry has contradictory feelings about his new life. At first, he enjoys it, but later he learns that the evil wizard, V oldemort, is the one who killed his parents. Harry and his partners have a fierce battle with V oldemort to save themselves and their magic world.The film is full of special effects. Watching Harry zoom around on a flying broom could make you feel dizzy, and the school sport of Quidditch is fantastic. The effects are all made with the computer, and are really exciting to watch.All of this is wonderful, but the best part of the film is the acting. This is surprising as the three young actors playing the characters of Harry, Ron and Hermione did not have much experience as actors before making this film. The skill with which these three become their characters is one of the film’s main attractions. They do very well even compared with the adult actors, such as Alan Rickman (Professor Snape), Richard Harris (Headmaster Dumbledore) and Maggie Smith (Professor McGonagall).J. K. Rowling, the author of the Harry Potter books, approved the final script of the film. However, many people have complained that the film is too long. At 142 minutes, it is almost a half hour longer than an average film. While the sport of Quidditch is a vital part of the book and of Harry’s school experience, I feel that too much time is devoted in the film to showing it. I think this is more to show off the special effects than to help the film’s plot. Also, it disappoints me that several interesting scenes are not shown in the film.Many people also complain that the film has a tendency to spend too much time showing Harry’s life with the Dursleys. This shows that the film-makers did not give enough thought to who the audience of the film would be. Most people who went to see the film had read the book before going to the cinema. They would already know that Harry is not happy with the Dursleys. The important and interesting parts of the film occur in the world of magic. Much of this early part of the film could have been skipped, and more time could have been spent at Hogwarts.Even with these slight drawbacks, Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone is still a great film, and I certainly recommend it!。
