　　Minutes after the last movie ended yesterday at the Plaza Theater, employees were busy sweeping up popcorns and gathering coke cups. It was a scene that had been repeated many times in the theater’s 75-year history. This time, however, the cleanup was a little different. As one group of workers carried out the rubbish, another group began removing seats and other theater equipment in preparation for the building’s end.

The film classic The Last Picture Show was the last movie shown in the old theater. Though the movie is 30 years old, most of the 250 seats were filled with teary-eyed audience wanting to say good-bye to the old building. Theater owner Ed Bradford said he chose the movie because it seemed appropriate. The movie is set in a small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down.

Bradford said that large modern theaters in the city made it impossible for the Plaza to ####pete. He added that the theater’s location(位置)was also a reason.“This used to be the center of town,”he said.“Now the area is mostly office buildings and warehouses.”

Last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested in turning the old theater into a museum and public meeting place. However, these plans were abandoned because of financial problems. Bradford sold the building and land to a local development firm, which plans to build a shopping ####plex on the land where the theater is located.

The theater audience said good-bye as Bradford locked the doors for the last time. After 75 years the Plaza Theater had shown its last movie. The theater will be missed.

1.In what way was yesterday’s cleanup at the Plaza special?

A.It made room for new equipment.

B.It signaled the closedown of the theater.

C.It was done with the help of the audience.

D.It marked the 75th anniversary of the theater.

2.Why was The Last Picture Show put on?

A.It was an all-time classic.

B.It was about the history of the town.

C.The audience requested it.

D.The theater owner found it suitable.

3.What will probably happen to the building?

A.It will be repaired.

B.It will be turned into a museum.

C.It will be knocked down.

D.It will be sold to the city government.

Always Changing

　　Mark is leaving, and I’m feeling kind of sad.

You probably don’t know Mark, but you might be lucky enough to　1　someone just like him. He’s been the heart and soul of the office for a couple of years ####bining 　2　professional skills with a sweet and gentle nature. 

And now he’s moving on to an exciting new professional 　3　. It sounds like it could be the chance of a lifetime, and we’re 　4　for him. But that doesn’t make it any easier to say goodbye to him. 

Life has a way of throwing these curve(曲线)balls 　5　us. Just when we start to get ####fortable with a person, a place or a situation, something ####es along to 　6　the recipe.  

Our ability to cope with change 　7　to a great degree, our peace, happiness and contentment in life.  

But how do we do that? A friend of mine is fond of reminding us that “survivability depends upon 　8　”. And then a surfer once told me that the answer to life’s problems can be 　9　in four words:“Go with the flow.”  

I’m not exactly sure, but I think he was saying that life is a series of 　10　—both good and bad. No matter how excellent your skill is, there will be always life-influencing factors over which you have no 　11　. The truly successful person expects the unexpected, and is prepared to 　12　adjustments should the need arise—as it almost 　13　does.  

That doesn’t mean you don’t keep trying to make all your 　14　####e true.It just means that when things ####e up that aren’t 　15　in your plan,you work around them—and then you move on.  

“Change,indeed,is painful, 　16　ever needful,” said philosopher Thomas Carlyle.“And if memory has its force and worth,so also has 　17　.”  

We’re going to miss Mark. But rather than stay on the 　18　of our parting, we’ll focus on our hopes for a brighter future—for him, and for us. And then we’ll go out and 　19　everything we can to make that future happen. 

　20　our plans change—again.

Dear John, 

How have you been lately? I really miss the days we spent together.It was so nice to be with you.However, some of your living and working habits, I have noticed, are not good enough for your health.As one of your best friends, I do hope that you can make some changes. 

First and foremost, you had better rebalance your work and life, and avoid staying up too late.Besides, never eat too much junk food, which I think will contribute to your weight.More importantly, do not surf the Internet for too long, since it will do harm to your eyesight.Instead, you may take part in more outdoor activities.I am sure you will enjoy a healthier life by improving your habits actively.

Best wishes and keep in touch.

Yours,

Li Hua
