中考英语阅读：《丑女贝蒂》第四季被砍

中考英语阅读第一段：

ABC has just informed Ugly Betty producers that the show’s current fourth season will be its last. What’s more, the network has trimmed Betty’s episode order from 22 to 20.
ABC台刚宣布告知《丑女贝蒂》的制片方，表示第四季将是最终季。雪上加霜的是，连集数都从原来的22集缩减到了20集。
Although not a complete shock given the show’s heinous ratings, the news is nonetheless a total bummer — particularly in light of Betty’s creative resurgence this season.
鉴于惨淡的收视率，这也算不得什么太大的意外，可究竟还是有点让人失望，因为好不容易这一季贝蒂有了起去世回生之势。

The good news is that ABC has given Betty’s bosses enough time to craft a satisfying series finale. Exec producer Silvio Horta and ABC president Steve McPherson confirmed as much in this joint statement: “We’ve mutually come to the difficult decision to make this Ugly Betty’s final season, and are announcing now as we want to allow the show ample time to write a satisfying conclusion. We are extremely proud of this groundbreaking series, and felt it was important to give the fans a proper farewell.”
来看看好的方面吧，ABC台至少让剧组有了足够的时间准备全剧大终局了。实行制造人Silvio Horta跟ABC台领导Steve McPherson在这份联合声名中表现：“经多方切磋，咱们决定在此季终结《丑女贝蒂》，当初咱们将这个新闻公之于众，并承诺将此剧妥善结尾。可能制作出这样存在独创性的剧集是我们的骄傲，同时也有必要给粉丝们一个满意的交代。”
