Passage One
(16) The ever so-beloved West End musical MammaMia has finally been taken from the stage to the silverscreen. The film is a musical based on the legendarySwedish pop band ABBA'S songs and it is the filmadaptation of the musical of the same a Mia uses the music of ABBA to tell the story of Sophie Sheridan, a 21-year-oldAmerican bride-to-be, trying to find out the identity of her real father so that he can give heraway at the wedding. (17) Since the premiere of the musical in London in 1999, over 30 millionpeople have seen Mamma Mia around the world and the theater production has grossed $2bn inearnings. Although the title of the musical is taken from ABBA's 1975 chart-topper Mamma Mia,neither the musical's nor the film's plot has anything to do with the story of the group itself.
The band ABBA was the winner of the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest and following thatsuccess their songs topped the charts worldwide until the early 1980s. The name ABBA is shortfor the first letters of the group member's first names. Some people say maybe it is themature A-list cast that makes the film work so well. (18) Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth and StellanSkarsgard star as the three potential dads with the Oscar winner Meryl Streep starring as themum of the bride-to-be.
16. What can be learned about the film Mamma Mia?
17. Where was Mamma Mia first put on the stage?
18. What can be learned about the cast of the film?
短文一
曾经备受观众喜爱的音乐剧《妈妈咪呀》终于从舞台搬上了大银幕。这部电影由瑞典乐队ABBA经典金曲贯穿始终的音乐剧改编而成，并沿袭了音乐剧原有名称。《妈妈咪呀》巧用ABBA的经典金曲讲述了21岁的准新娘苏菲·谢里丹为了有个圆满的婚礼而寻找亲生父亲的故事。自从1991年这部音乐剧在英国伦敦进行首演后，全球超3000万人观看了音乐剧《妈妈咪呀》，此剧更是创下20亿的高票房。尽管这部音乐剧的名字借鉴了ABBA乐队1975年的横扫音乐榜首的歌曲，但无论是音乐剧还是影片情节都与乐队没有任何关系。
ABBA乐队是1974年欧洲电视网歌唱大赛的冠军得主，之后一直到九十年代早期的`几年间，他们的歌曲一直高居全球音乐榜榜首。ABBA是由乐队成员名字的首字母缩写组成。有人说电影如此卖座跟庞大的演员阵容不无关系。皮尔斯·布鲁斯南、科林·弗思和斯特兰·斯卡斯加德分别饰演准新娘父亲的角色，奥斯卡奖得主梅丽尔·斯特里普饰演准新娘的母亲。
