牛津译林版必修第一册知识点总结
UNIT 1 Lights camera action!
Behind the scenes①
Hello，everyone! Let me start by asking you a question: what's the first thing you notice about a film? The acting? The music? Maybe the amazing ts? Whatever your answer is，there's always a lot more to it than first meets the eye. 【1】 Actually②，the film you e on the screen is the product of a huge amount of hard work，most of which takes place behind the scenes.【2】Today，I'll give you a brief③ introduction to some aspects of filmmaking you might not be familiar④ with.
【1】whatever引导让步状语从句，意为“不管……，无论……”。
【2】most 为介词(of) ＋关系代词(which)引导的定语从句， 表示“在……中”。
To begin with⑤，I'd like to draw your attention to an important factor⑥ of a film―sound e
ffects.The are often added after a scene has been shot and might not be made in the way you would expect.【3】 For example，in Jurassic Park，the sounds of different animals，including a baby elephant and a tiger，were mixed by a computer to make a dinosaur⑦ roar⑧.The sound of the doors opening in the Star Trek films was made simply by pulling a sheet⑨ of paper out of an envelope⑩.
【3】you would expect为定语从句，先行词为the way。
Another aspect I attach great importance to⑪ is visual⑫ special effects.CGI has been frequently夸父逐日翻译⑬ ud in filmmaking as a special effects technology.Generally，scenes requiring CGI are filmed in front of a green screen in the studio⑭.As green doesn't match any natural hair or skin colour，actors can be easily parated from the background. 【4】This enables⑮ CGI effects to be added later.The Quidditch scenes in the Harry Potter films were made in this way with the actors jumping up and down in front of a green screen.【5】 However，the aid⑯ of computers isn't always preferred⑰.Peter Jackson，director of The Lord of the Rings films，took a creative⑱ approach⑲
―he ud clever camera angles⑳ to make characters em bigger or smaller than they really were.【6】
【4】as引导原因状语从句，表示“因为”。
【5】此处的with the actors jumping up and down in front of a green screen为with的复合结构，在句中作状语。
【6】连词than引导的比较状语从句。
Props also contribute to a film's success.To make a film look real，great effort must sometimes be made to rearch，find and build objects.Director James Cameron spent six months looking at and revising plans of the Titanic in order to build a fullsized model for his 1997 film.He talked to historians to ensure that the details were correct and even went down to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean to e what was left of the ship for himlf.【7】 It took 500 workers 100 days to build the fine model，debugnot to mention the thousands of props inside.【8】
【7】此处的...that the details were correct为ensure的宾语从句；句中的what引导的从句作动词e的宾语。
【8】 此句用了“It takes sb.some time ”句型，表示“做某事花费了某人多长时间”，it为形式主语，不定式为真正主语。cdna
My lecture today may not be able to do justice to all the work people have done behind the scenes.【9】 Just as the poor pasngers on the real Titanic saw the tip of the iceberg，what we e on the cinema screen is just the tip of the huge iceberg of filmmaking.【10】Hopefully，next time you go to the cinema, assholeyou'll spare a thought for all tho talented people behind the scenes. 【11】They have worked for months and even years so that you can have two hours of enjoyment！【12】
【9】此句为省略了关系代词(that/which) 引导的定语从句。
【10】as引导非限制性定语从句，意为“正如……”。what引导主语从句。
【11】next time引导时间状语从句，意为“当下次……时”。
【12】so that引导目的状语从句。

在幕后
大家好！首先，我要问你们一个问题：关于电影，你首先注意到的是什么？表演？音乐？也许是令人惊叹的摄影场地？无论你的答案是什么，它(电影)都远比你最初表面看到的更为复杂。事实上，你在荧幕上看到的电影是大量辛勤工作的成果，其中大部分是在幕后进行的。今天，我将就电影制作中你们可能不太熟悉的一些方面做一个简单的介绍。
