      閱讀指引
      1. glee (n) /gli:/,g-LEE 歡樂、高興
      解讀:glee是不可數名詞,前面多用介系詞in,例如cackle in glee是高興得嘎嘎地笑,rub your hands in glee是歡喜得搓雙手,也可用with,例如receive the gift with glee是開心地收禮物;glee尚可解作幸災樂禍。
      2. direction (n) /d?笈'rek?瓿?瑆n/,da-RECK-shun 指示、導演的指導
      解讀:動詞direct泛指指導,用於電影便指導演的指導,direct a comedy是指導一齣喜劇的拍攝過程;名詞是direction,意思相似;另一名詞director則指導演,例如best director award是最佳導演獎項。
      3. screenplay (n) /'skri:nple?笈/,SCREEN-play 電影劇本、影片的腳本
      解讀:screenplay專指電影的劇本,不能包括話劇、電視劇等;若要泛指劇本,可說script,而且此字尚可指演講的演辭、各種廣播的講稿,當然也包括電影劇本;電影編劇叫screenwriter,各式各樣的編劇可統稱為scriptwriter,專門寫話劇的劇作家則叫playwright。
