V. Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答问题）：
  Want to see a good film without leaving the house? Well, just switch on the television. But people could not do so 30 or 40 years ago. A visit to the cinema was an evening out； a fil
m was something special. Nowadays young people still go to the cinema often, and children watch a lot of television. Films and film stars are a strong force (力量）in our lives. So there is little film education in schools. The best way is to teach children how to make a film of their own.
This is not too difficult. Three things are important—the cost, the idea of the film, and organization. A four-minute film can cost as little as $ 10. Schools can rent (租用）necessary machines. They can also borrow films that other children have made. This helps them to see what is possible in a short film. Children will be making the film, so the main idea for the film must come from them. When these have been agreed，the organization begins. Someone must write the film and plan the filming. Some children will be actors, and others will be camera men，lighting men，technicians (技术人员）
and so on. They all have to practice a lot before the film itself is made. They learn a great deal about the technical problems of the films, and about themselves.
1.    What could not people do 30 or 40 years ago?
2.    It’s very difficult to make a film of our own，isn’t it?
3.    How much should the children pay at least for a four-minute film?
4.    Where must the main idea for the film come from?
5.    What jobs will the children do when making a film?
6.    What do you think of making a film of your own?
