[2021·上海模拟]Have you ever heard of Nollywood? Nollywood is the name of the Nigerian (尼日利亚的) film industry. Nigeria is one of the largest film industries in the world based on the quantity of films produced, placing them right below India's Bollywood and above USA's Hollwood!
Born in around 1992. Nollywood is the youngest compared with the other two “woods”, and uses new forms of financing and production. Now it's in adulthood and bigger productions have become more regular. However, this was not always the case. Although movie theaters were rare in Nigeria during earlier period, original stories were not. Despite lack of funds and experience, self­made directors began to use commercial video cameras to shoot their movies and sold them for home viewing. Even though this resulted in movies with low production value, the original stories instantly made them a hit. Today, the film industry is the largest employer after agriculture and makes up 5% of Nigeria's GDP.
Nigeria is a big player in the industry and it is constantly improving its craft, taking on new challenges. Nollywood is known mainly for its comedies and dramas, but we are increasingly seeing horror movies and musicals.
Although sometimes heavily criticized for low production values, Nollywood continues to grow fans worldwide. Nigerian movies now make up 11% of Nigeria's non­oil exports! The average movie is produced in 7-10 days on a budget between £7,000-12,000 (Hollywood's average is around £60 million per movie with one year production time).This is changing, however, as more filmmakers are receiving proper training and are aiming to make films up to the international standard.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
1.B 细节理解题。根据第二段“Although movie theaters were rare in Nigeria during earlier period, original stories were not.”可知,Nollywood在早期缺的是电影院,但是原创的故事却不缺。故选B项。
2.C 细节理解题。根据最后一段“The average movie is produced in 7-10 days on a budget between £7,000-12,000(普通电影在7-10天内制作,预算在7 000-12 000英镑之间) (Hollywood's average is around £60 million per movie with one year production time(好莱坞用一年的制作时间,平均每部电影约为6 000万英镑).”可知,诺尔伍德的电影制作费用比好莱坞的少,因此可知好莱坞普通电影的预算比诺尔伍德的少得多是不对的。故选C项。
3.D 推理判断题。根据最后一段“This is changing, however, as more filmmakers are receiving proper training and are aiming to make films up to the international standard.”可知,Nollywood正在发生变化,制片人们接受培训,电影制作接近国际水平。因此推断在Nollywood,更多的电影制作人正试图提高电影质量。故选D项。
4.D 主旨大意题。通读文章可知,文章的第一和第二段描述的是Nollywood电影产业的特点;而第三和第四段侧重描述的是它现在的变化。故选D项。
