A PG13 film may go beyond the PG rating in theme, violence, nudity (裸露), language, adult activities or other elements, but does not reach the restricted R category. A single use of one of the rude words in a film, though only as an expletive (感嘆語), initially requires at least a PG13 rating. 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?
