Question

I. reading read the text and decide if the statements are t (true) or f (false). “a not-so-plain jane from spain” by jennifer orodocez when paz vega got the call that she'd won a starring role in a big-budget hollywood film, she thought the gods must be crazy. “it was shocking,” she says. “it seemed impos-sible.” vega, an onyx-haired actress from spain, spoke hardly a word of english. but that wasn't a deal breaker for james l. brooks, who was making a comedy called “spanglish,” his first film in eight years. vega plays flor, housekeeper to a privileged, mixed-up family headed by adam sandler and tea leoni. "when i got here they gave me my schedule for the next two months, and i started to cry,” she says. “i was not sure if i could do it.” and english wasn't vega’s only problem. she had to be coached on her spanish, too - so she could deliver her lines like a mexican. brooks, a director who is notoriously hard to please, initially hoped to find an actress with mexican roots, but says that vega simply nailed the part in the five-hour audition. "flor's face just has to entice1 us,” brooks says. "we have to feel like we know what she’s saying, without really knowing what she’s saying.” vega says she’s still hitting the books hard. ultimately, she would like to eliminate her spanish accent entirely. “i don’t want to play only latin women,” she says. “i want to have roles in english.” that could take a while. in the meantime, don't be surprised if some “spanglish” fans start brushing up on their spanish. taken from newsweek, january 11. this is paz vega's first film that she speaks english in. 12. vega wasn’t worried about making the film.. 13. vega is studying to learn english. 14. the actress who plays flor must have mexican roots. 15. vega will be playing the starring role. 16. adam sandler and tea leoni will be in the film.
