Though war is something people hate, Director Feng Xiaogang often exposes his audience to it.
“If we don’t impress the audience, who are without the painful experience of war, with the cruel injury to life and human nature war causes, how can we bring them a love of peace and objection to war?” asked the director with anger in his eyes.
After Red River Valley and Lover’s Grief over the Yellow River, both of which star Chinese model and actress Ning Jing, Feng drew a satisfactory full stop to his war trilogy last month with Purple Sunset.
The film tells a story which took place in 1945, at the very moment when World War II was drawing to and end. A Chinese peasant and a Soviet woman soldier flee into a forest, where they seize a Japanese girl. They follow the girl in the hope that she will take them out of the forest, but instead they arrive in a Japanese base. Humanity prevents them from killing the young, innocent victim of Japanese militarism. This humanity, the longing for peace and eagerness to survive, make the three unite.
“If people are touched by justice, tolerance arid unselfishness, I think I have achieved my goal,” Feng said.
Feng admits that there are violent and bloody scenes in the film, such as tanks
fighting and Japanese burning Chinese people alive, to show the cruelty of war. But that’s never his personal preference, he says. “Everyone who has watched my films can tell how much I detest war, “he said, “I wrote all the things for my war films by myself. Whenever I finished one, I felt as though I had suffered great pain.”
Feng regards every one of his productions as an opportunity to learn about human nature and humanity. In spite of violent scenes which frighten and sicken the audience, a balance is sought with beautiful scenery. Just like the snowy mountains in Red River Valley and the grand plateau in Lover’s Grief over the Yellow River, a beautiful vast grassland appears in this film. “I used to study art and I appreciate beautiful things,” Feng said. “I believe that films should offer the audience a chance to enjoy beauty.”

60. Director Feng Xiaogang shot war film because_________.
A. he was deeply interested in such a topic
B. he wanted to give the audience the painful experience of war
C. he hoped to arouse people’s love of peace and objection to war
D. he dreamed of becoming a world-famous director
61. A Chinese peasant and a Soviet woman soldier seized a Japanese girl so that_____.
A. they could find the Japanese base easily
B. she could take them out of the forest
C. they could kill her for revenge
D. it would cause the Japanese militarism to give in
62.Scenes of Japanese burning Chinese people alive in the film are to ______.

A. show that war is cruel B. attract people’s interest
C. show Feng’s personal preference and interest
D. make the film moving and interesting
63.The underlined word “detest” in this passage refers to ________.
A. hate B. like C. flee D. know about
