听力原文： Cannes Film Festival, the most prestigious motion- picture festival in the world, is held each May in the city of Cannes, in south east France. The Cannes Film Festival was conceived at the end of 1938. Due to World War ll, however, the first Cannes Film Festival was not held until 1946. Internationalism and postwar optimism characterized the first festival, as organizers placed less emphasis on com petition than on mutual creative stimulation between national productions. In later years the selection of entries for prizes reflected more commercial interests and the festival soon acquired its current reputation as a fashionable professional event, more concerned with advancing the film industry than the art of film. French director Francois Truffaut addressed this issue in 1956 and predicted its commercial death. The festival survived, however, and in 1959, Truffant himself was awarded the prize for best screenplay for one of his films.

Despite its ever present financial interests, the Cannes Film Festival remains an essential affair for international cinema. In 1955 the organizing committee at Cannes introduced the Golden Palm Award(in English) for best film of the festival, now regarded as one of the film industry's most distinguished prizes. Past recipients of the award include Taxi Driver by American director Martin Scorsese, The Piano by New Zealand director Jane Campion, etc.

第5题

听力原文：M: It seems that almost every city now has its own film festival. This is a good

thing. But how can you make your festival different to all the others？ One of the answers, it seems, is to specialize.

W: There are hundreds of film festivals all over the world now. In Italy there are at least 20. (19) We decided to make ours different — shorter!

M: This is Valentina Ricciardi. She is the curator of a festival of short films in Italy. Valentina, why short films？

W: Well, there are lots of reasons. Firstly, I think that short films are a very undervalued form. So many big films now have so many special effects and famous actors, that they often don't have a story! We're not interested in special effects or leading "A-list" actors. None of that matters in a short film. (20) A short film is a real test of being able to tell a good story in a few images.

M: It goes back to what film is really about.

W: Exactly! Added to that, it's so expensive to make a film now. First time directors can't hope to make a full-length feature film. (21) Short films are great places for new directors to practice their skills. You don't need a huge budget to make a short film—just a huge imagination!

M: So money is also a factor？

W: Of course. The big film festivals in Cannes and Venice cost a fortune to put on. Many short films are now made using high quality digital video. This means they can be stored on DVD, so we don't have to transport large, heavy reels of film.

M: Ok, thank you.

19．How did the woman make her film festival different？

20.What is a film really about according to the woman？

21.What do short films mean to new directors？

(20)

A．She specialized in short films.

B．She featured famous actors.

C．She told a long story.

D．She used special effects.
