the piano. C The Guidance Department （ 教导处） at Berryville High School has a staff of eleven teachers. Most of their work is done with the students.

D Where in the world can you take an hour’ s train ride, and pass a forest, a London street, a scene from the Wild West, and a burning building that never burns down? There’ s only one place, and that’ s Hollywood, in California. The scenes you see from the tourist train are film sets（布景） in the Universal Studios, one of the oldest and largest movie panies(公司 ) in the USA. A visit to Universal Studios brings back memories of great days of Hollywood, the films and the stars. But they are only memories. Hollywood isn’ t quite the same as it used to be. Costs have gone up and confidence has gone down. Moviemakers are afraid to spend their money on expensive new ideas. Instead, they repeat old ones. The film industry is changing fast.

But older people mostly stay home to watch series, like Dynasty have bee as important to Hollywood as expensive movies. These “ soap opera” , as they are called, show rich, powerful families living in beautiful homes and wearing beautiful clothes. But the actors and actresses are nearly all middleaged, like many of the people who watch them.
