26、I’m Jessica, a big fan of James Bond. I’ve got most of the Bond films on DVD. We’ve recently bought Quantum of Solace, in which Daniel Craig plays the role of Bond. I don’t know why the film has got that name—but it’s a great movie, anyway.
All the actors who’ve played James Bond have been great, but Daniel Craig, who’s made lots of other films, plays the role better than any of them. Though he doesn’t talk much, I think he’s the most perfect actor for the role. He even does a few of the more dangerous things in the film himself, instead of getting someone else to do them. I sometimes wondered whether he would be clever to defeat (击败) the bad people—but I’m not going to tell you the ending
The actress who stars with Craig gives a fantastic performance too—I loved all the fashionable clothes she wore!.
The director probably had a hard job making this Bond film as full of action as earlier ones. But the excitement starts just at the beginning, with a car running after another quickly along a mountain road, and plenty of other exciting scenes, too—Bond jumping off tall buildings and so on. However, I found the story difficult to understand, and it also seemed to be over very quickly—it lasted less than two hours. I also felt there weren’t as many jokes as in the old Bond films. And where was all the funny Bond equipment (装备) —the underwater car or exploding watch that everyone laughed at? This is a more serious, darker Bond film, but I still really enjoy it.
【1】What can a reader find out from Jessica’s article?
A.What other films Daniel Craig has made.
B.Which other actors have played James Bond.
C.Why she thinks Daniel Craig is the best James Bond.
D.Whether Quantum of Solace is her favourite Bond film.
【2】How does Daniel Craig play James Bond in the new Bond film?
A.He has a lot to say to the actress.
B.He himself performs some dangerous action scenes.
C.He wears some fashionable clothes.
D.He looks strong enough to fight the bad people.
【3】What is Jessica trying to do in her article?
A.To tell readers about the Bond DVDs she owns.
B.To explain what first attracted her to Bond films.
C.To give a balanced review of a Bond film she has seen.
D.To describe how Daniel Craig got the role of James Bond.
