Crash. Shatter. Boom. Crash. Shatter. Boom. Smattering of silly dialogue. Pretty girl screams: "Dad!" Crash. Shatter. Boom. Silly dialogue. "DAD!!!" Crash. Shatter. Boom. What? Oh, sorry. We were falling into
a trance
there.
Which is, dear moviegoer, what may happen to you during Michael Bay’s Transformers: Age of Extinction, the fourth Transformers film and lasts 165 minutes, which is precariously close to the three-hour mark that Bay undoubtedly will reach—by our sophisticated calculations, and at the current growth rate, with his sixth instalment.
But let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Despite what you’ve just read, this film will likely be a massive hit because by now, if you’re buying a Transformers ticket, you surely know what you’ re getting into, and you want more, more, more. And Bay is the Master of More.
Or just take it from the 11-year-old sitting next to me, who reserved any audible judgment—he, too was in a trance, though maybe from sugar intake—until the moment he saw a Transformer become a dinosaur. Overwhelmed by the pairing, he proclaimed, "That’s the sickest thing I’ve ever seen in my life." It was as if peanut butter and jelly had been tasted together for the first time.
This time, there’ s a whole new human cast. Most important, Mark Wahlberg has replaced Shia LaBeouf as well, Main Human Guy.
A significant part of the movie also takes place in China—clearly a nod to the franchise’ s huge market in the country.
In any case, we begin in Paris, Texas, where Cade Yeager(Wahlberg), a struggling inventor, is desperately seeking a big discovery. He’s also a widowed dad, and super-protective(as the movie incessantly reminds us)of his high-school daughter, Tessa(Nicola Peltz, blond and pretty and ineffective, though the one-note script does her no favours).
One day, Cade buys a rusty old truck. Examining it back home, he soon discovers it’ s none other than Optimus Prime, the Autobot hero, seriously damaged.
As Cade works on fixing him up, his assistant, wisecracking surfer-dude Lucas, has the dumb idea of calling the authorities. What he doesn’t know is that the government is plotting to destroy all remaining Autobots in favour of a man-made army of Transformers. He’ s being helped in this endeavour by the shadowy KSI Corporation, run by the nasty-but-complicated Joshua Joyce(Stanley Tucci).
So now, it’s evil humans that pitted against the trustworthy Autobots. So much for gratitude. There’ s also a subplot involving Tessa and her secret boyfriend, Shane(Jack Reynor, underused), whose Irish accent leads Cade to dismissively call him "Lucky Charms" —at least until the two bond in battle.
The obvious question: Is it too much for its own good? Bay is very talented at all things visual, the 3-D works well and the robots look great. But the final confrontation alone lasts close to an hour. At some point, you may find yourself simply in a daze, unable to absorb any further action into your brain.
What does the word "trance"(Line 1, Para. 2)mean?
选项
A、Unconsciousness.
B、Fascination.
C、Scare.
D、Confusion.
答案
B
解析
语义题。文章第一段讲到一个女孩观看《变形金刚4》时异常激动,不断呼喊“爸爸!”可见,她对该部电影非常着迷,即“We were falling into a trance there,”即“只因此刻我们太入迷了.”B项fascination意为“着迷,入迷”,与trance意思一致,因而可代替trance。
