书籍、电影

The other day, I watched a movie named Passengers, whichis an American science fiction and adventure film. The story is set in thefuture when people could choose to move to other planet and live a new lifethere. This is how it works, after passengers board the spaceship, they wouldenter hibernation [ˌhaɪbə'neɪʃn] and sleep in a specially designed pod thatwould automatically [ˌɔtəˈmætɪkl:ɪ] wake them up after 120 years when theyarrive at the new planet. However, there’s something wrong with the system, andone of the passengers wakes up 90 year early, which is a disaster ‘causethere’s no way for him to re-enter hibernation, which means he will likely growold and die before the ship reaches their new home. And the rest of the movieis all about the choices he makes and efforts he makes to save everyone on theship, including the woman he loves, who by the way is awake because of him.Well, it’s such a complex story, so it’s hard for me to tell it in just twominutes, I’ve already left out some of the plot.

Anyway, it’s more than just a science-fiction or anordinary love story, I mean, it’s one of those stories that really grab me andget me thinking, what would I do if I were in that situation, you know, stuck[stʌk] in a sinking spaceship, or would I choose to board theship in the first place. So you see, it’s thought provoking and it’s fair tosay, it’s the best film I’ve seen recently.

虽然该影片的review褒贬不一，有影评人质疑该片的价值观不正，对“幸福”的定义过于简单粗暴，也有人笑称该片是太空版的《泰坦尼克》，更有人说整部电影讲的就是“别睡了起来嗨”……但无论怎样，我们都得承认作为雅思素材，这绝对是好电影，因为好说呀!复杂的情节以及要用到的绕口的术语，咱们根本不用提，就把故事大意一讲，来段观后感就搞定了，而且这个也可以说成是书呀，同样也是机经里的题目，我们可以说它是page-turner，读起来爱不释手，每翻几页就有新惊喜(I couldn’t put it down, I mean, every 10 pages, something new happens!)。开头还可以假装一下：I heard there is a movie that is adapted from thisbook, but I seriously doubt it would be better than or even as fascinating asthe book, I mean, every adapted movie so far has been a huge disappointment.Anyway, back to the book. 然后就开始说剧情，最后说观后感，这部分也就是为什么你想再读一遍该书的理由。常见的套话就是：Every time I read it, I get something new and deeper insights. Andit even puts my life into perspective. 希望大家用得上哦。

 

however, he was really the winner; nevergive up in face of hardships, setbacks, barriers in our lives.

而这就上升到了哲学选择问题，到底当一个人在没有决定权的时候，别人应不应该帮自己决定自己的生死？

回到电影也是一样，如果飞船当时因为故障濒临爆炸，还在休眠的人，是不是应该有权知道自己的生死？还是选择静静的睡去？
