四、閱讀測驗【請在下列各題中選出最適當的答案】 第一篇：   He fought with distinction and held almost every major office in Britain. He commanded a country in the midst ofworld war and is credited with inventing the social safety net. He has been called a war lover, a drunk and a racist. He wonthe Nobel Prize for Literature, rivaled only Shakespeare in his abundant literary output, and painted more than 500 drawingsin his lifetime.   Winston Churchill was a complex and contradictory leader unlike any in recent history. And he also presents one of themost sought-after and challenging roles for any actor worth his pay.   “Not only could he pitch, but he could bat and run.” Gary Oldman said in a recent interview. “He is the ultimateall-rounder.”   Oldman, a talented British actor, takes on Churchill in the movie “Darkest Hour”. The movie, directed by Joe Wright,describes the defining 28 days in 1940 when Churchill was made prime minister and finally convinced Britain to fight Hitler.The film is an often tense character study, exposing Churchill’s own moments of self-doubt and the resistance he faced fromthe public, his party and his king.   Countless movies have been made about Churchill, but Wright was drawn to this particular period because of what thatuncertainty revealed the man. Churchill has become such an icon that he’s either untouchable or he’s a demon. Wright’sappeal was to take Churchill out from his shrine and not throw him into the toilet but look at him eye to eye as a humanbeing.   The movie also tries to understand Churchill through his use of language, with the sound of typewriters constantlyclacking in the background. “They are the most iconic speeches in the history of the English language and they were allwritten in 28 days,” Wright said. “So how these speeches came to be and how he came to express the will and the sentimentof the nation is really the subject,” Wright added.
