More than one such bad word requires an R rating, as must even one of those words used in a sexual context. The Rating Board nevertheless may rate such a film PG13 if, based on a special vote by a twothirds majority, the Raters feel that most American parents would believe that a PG13 rating is appropriate because of the context or manner in which the words are used or because the use of those words in the film is easily neglected.（1）What is the main goal of this passage? discuss various movie ratings. explain various movie ratings. explain the difference between PG13 and R movie ratings. explain the PG13 movie rating.（2）According to PG13 rating, the theme of the movie __________. little impact on its rating a large impact on its rating be entertaining be suitable for children（3）From Paragraph 2, we can learn that drug usage __________. not be allowed in movies dangerous a PG13 rating necessary not appropriate for children under 13（4）What does a movie with two or more uses of bad words require? PG rating. PG13 rating. R rating. NC17 rating.【答案】 （1）D（2）A（3）C（4）C 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文。 The theme of the film by itself will not result in a rating greater than PG13, although activities shown in the film related to a mature theme may result in a restricted rating for the film. Any drug use will initially require at least a PG13 rating. More than brief nudity will require at least a PG13 rating, but such nudity in PG13 rated film generally will not be sexually oriented. There may be violence scene in a PG13 movie, but generally not both realistic and extreme or persistent violence.PG13級(jí)是電影分級(jí)委員會(huì)對(duì)家長(zhǎng)發(fā)出的更嚴(yán)格的警告，目的是決定13歲以下的孩子是否應(yīng)該看這部電影。全文目的在于解釋PG13。此可知，電影的主題對(duì)PG13評(píng)級(jí)影響不大?？芍?，藥物使用使PG13評(píng)級(jí)是必要的。故選C。 But did you ever stop to think how the same techniques might be applied to engineering?
