【題目】閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中選出最佳選項。

(2012年沈陽模擬) They're so young! What sets apart (區(qū)別) the new TV adaptation (改編) of the classic novel A Dream of Red Mansions is the youthfulness of the players.

The producers made a great effort to bring in young actors. Most of them were born in the late 1980s and 1990s. At the same time, a team of 20somethings was given responsibility for adapting the novel for TV screens.

It is unusual for a director to pick a group of young people with little scriptwriting (寫劇本) experience to take on such a big task. Most would expect the job to be given to more seasoned (經驗豐富的) writers.

“I understand why director Li Shaohong has taken this unusual approach，” writes movie critic Raymond Zhou in China Daily. “She wants the drama to resonate (共鳴) with today's young people.”

Besides giving the remake a youthful flavor, Li also wanted to go back to the original. The popular 1986 adaptation left out many important parts of the novel that were considered superstitious (迷信的) back then. For this adaptation Li wanted strict faith to A Dream of Red Mansions, to make sure young audiences will get a real sense of the novel.

However, since people know the 1986 adaptation so well, they compare the old and new shows. The costumes, makeup and scenery in new drama are controversial (被爭論的). Nie Lina, 16, of Yantai No.1 High School in Shandong Province, believes it is a bad idea for actors to have such strange hairstyles. The actors remind me of Peking Opera performers, not people living in Qing Dynasty time. Li Youran, 16, of Nanjing Foreign Language School, complains the music is strange and some scenes are scary. She also believes the actors are not playing in the spirit of the characters.

But Zhou defends (捍衛(wèi)) the remake as an attempt at faithful adaptation. The value of the adaptation of a novel should be judged (評價) by how faithful it is to the novel—it shouldn't be judged against another adaptation. However, Zhou also argues that a director has the right to make his or her own work of art：an artist has the right to interpret (闡釋) a classic based on his or her own understanding...You may not like it, but you cannot deny (否認) him or her that right.

【1】Which of the following statements is the difference between the new adaptation and the old one?

A．The actors are very famous.

B．The actors are very young.

C．The director is very famous.

【3】Besides the youthfulness，the director wants to make the new adaptation ________.

A．superstitious

B．sensible

C．faithful

D．unexpected

【4】What does the underlined word in the third paragraph mean，according to the passage?

A．young

B．old

D．experienced

【5】According to the audiences，which of the following statements is TRUE?
