Of the several films Hirokazu has made about childhood and children， this one is the most modest， but no less pleasing for its delicate style and small setting. I Wish was originally called Miracle， and the change is for the better. The two-word title makes you want to know whos wishing for what， while the single word sounds plain and self-praising. This wise and funny film works small miracles in describing such a moment when kids turn from the wishfulness of childhood into shaping the world for themselves.

The sweetly reflective hero， a sixth-grader named Koichi， starts out by wishing for a volcano to erupt （噴發(fā)） . Not just any volcano， but the one that towers above his town， smoking heavily and giving off ash. An eruption would lead to a withdrawing， which would lead， at least in his mind， to a reunion with his father and kid brother， whove been living in Hakata while Koichi lives with his mother and retired grandparents in Kagoshima. The volcano， knowing nothing of this， refuses to erupt， but Koichi hears of another approach to realizing the desired miracle.

One of the pleasures of I Wish is watching how kids behave—how Koichi attacks his dinner， for example. Another pleasure is rediscovering how kids think. These kids can be logical and ever so tricky. But childrens thought processes can also be fancy. A boy wishes he could play baseball like one of baseball stars， who eats curry for breakfast； so he， too， starts eating curry for breakfast， instead of practicing on the field. Another boy tries to wish his dead dog， Marble， back to life. And what does Koichi finally wish for？ I wish youd see this delightful film to find out.

Most people think that making a film is exciting.

Earlier this year， I worked in a new film. It was about a bomb threat on a big British ship. Two hundred people were needed to act as the passengers in the film. I was one of them.

These were necessary because we would spend the whole 16 days sailing in bad weather.

Then the day came and we sailed out of Dover. There were the film crew， the director， the actors and actresses including Brinksley Meers， who acted the leading role， and us—200 amateur （業(yè)余的） extras.

Some wanted to meet Brinksley Meers in person. Others were curious to see how a film was made. A housewife with her three children came for free holiday and a bit of adventure.

During the voyage， a lot of people were very seasick.

We often worked all day on one scene， performing it again and again under the hot lights. In the evenings， there were drinks in the bar， but most people were so tired that they went to bed early.

When the ship finally returned to port， most people had enjoyed the trip， but were also so tired that they at least needed a weeks holiday.

A. They were very tired.

B. I could be a popular film star.

C. People came for different purposes.

D. In fact， sometimes it is but sometimes it isnt.

E. Although the work was very interesting， it was also very hard.

F. Before we left， we were wanted to bring some warm clothes.

G. The next day often began at 6：30 in the morning， sometimes with breakfast being filmed.
