C閱讀提示:本文介紹了中國臺灣導演李安憑借《少年派的奇幻漂流》奪得第八十五屆奧斯卡最佳導演獎的情況。
1. A 細節(jié)理解題。由第一段的第一句話“ Chinese-American filmmaker Ang Lee won the Academy Awards for Best Director for his Life of Pi,2013”可知，李安獲得 2013 年奧斯卡最佳導演獎是因為他的《少年派的奇幻漂流》。
2. B詞義猜測題。由常理可知，李安的成功與他的努力工作是分不開的，由此推出畫線單詞“inseparable”意為“不可分割的”。
3. D細節(jié)理解題。由短文的最后一句話“Because of hard work and passion for film-making,Lee has become so successful”可知， 李安之所以兩次獲得奧斯卡最佳導演獎是因為他不但努力而且 還對拍攝電影有熱情。
4. C細節(jié)理解題。由第一段的句子“It's the second Oscar for Lee,the Hrst in 2005 for Mom勸zm”可知 2005 年獲得奧斯卡獎的是李安，不是Steven Spielberg,故C項表述錯誤。
5. A主旨大意題。本文主要講的是李安獲得了 2013年的奧斯卡大獎，故A項為最佳答案。

So many things have changed around here. When I left Wilson Creek,there was a small pond on the right as you left town. They have filled in this pond and they have built a large shopping mall there. A new post office has also been built just across from my old school.
There is a baseball court on the outskirts of Wilson Creek which has been changed completely. We used to drive for several hours from the city center to get there. Now,a new stand has been added so that more people could sit. It looks really great.
