21、As a classic love movie of the twentieth century, Titanic makes one scene a long-lasting cinematic shot: Jack let go of his hand and sank in the icy seawater, leaving the chance of living to his lover Rose, who finally survived on a wooden door debris (残骸).

More than 100 years since the disastrous event and more than two decades after the earliest release of the movie Titanic, there have been many “door theories”. Audiences debate heatedly over whether or not Jack and Rose could have both fit onto the wooden debris and survived. So, was there room for Jack?

In a TV program, hosts Jamie and Adam even did an experiment using an exact replica       (复制品) of the wooden piece from the movie, and the two proved that if they had tied Rose’s life jacket to the bottom of the door to strengthen its buoyancy ( 浮 力 ), they would have managed to stay afloat.

However, their conclusion was debunked when director Cameron said that the freezing water and Jack’s high temperature would have made the life jacket solution impossible. He also said that the debate is beyond the point the movie was trying to make, which is focused on the tragic love story of Jack and Rose, not physics.

The largest debris recovered from the real Titanic is now displayed in the Maritime Museum. The museum’s website states that a replica was once built for the movie based on the museum’s Titanic collection which was known as the “door” used in the death scene. Unfortunately, the size of the debris coupled with the weight of Rose on top could work, but not if Jack’s additional weight was added to it.

In a word, science has proven that Jack didn’t die for nothing and did indeed sacrifice himself to save the love of his life.

【1】What’s the purpose of paragraph 1?

A．To lead into the topic.

B．To introduce a movie.

C．To raise a question.

D．To highlight characters.

【2】What is the conclusion of Jamie and Adam based on?

A．The development of the plot.

B．A physics experiment.

C．The theme of the movie.

D．A heated debate.

【3】What does the underlined word “debunked” in paragraph 4 mean?

A．Confirmed.

B．Opposed.

C．Approved.

D．Concerned.

【4】We can infer that the movie’s ending is .

A．unrealistic

B．confusing

C．reasonable

D．surprising
