The reason I wanted to see So Young is that it’s Zhao Wei’s directorial debut（处女秀）. I guess I didn’t expect much else. 
So Young has everything a popular youth film should have: Beautiful young actors, a story about colorful campus life and involved romance, and a strong sense of longing for something past
The leading female character Zheng Wei (Yang Zishan) enrolls at university to stay close to her childhood sweetheart Lin Jing (Han Geng). But when Lin moves abroad to pursue his education, life loses its shine for Zheng. Until she meets the dynamic yet cool Chen Xiaozheng (Mark Chao).
The film also features a bunch of vivid supporting characters: The school beauty who falls in love with a worthless unimportant person, the rich kid who is rejected by his dream girl, and Zheng’s boyish roommate with a huge ego(自我).
Together they put on quite a show under Zhao’s direction and her smooth and aesthetic camera work. You’ll find yourself laughing over their trivial yet funny life on campus in the early 1990s.As expected, the film’s second half takes the audience to years later when the characters have moved on into different corners of society. But the film unexpectedly doesn’t focus on the comedic vibe and turns into a serious discussion about the meaning of life and love. Through the events in their current life and flashbacks of their college years, the film describes how life has changed these characters. And that’s where the film goes wrong.
The emotional change of the characters seems overhasty. If you watch the 2011 youth film You’re the Apple of My Eye, you’ll find that the film’s resonance(共鸣)with the audience accumulates from the beginning ― through details like sexual fantasies and so on ― and peaks in the end. In So Young, the sudden emotional touch with endless splendid lines just isn’t enough to strike our hearts.
Zhao also clearly wanted to give every character a proper ending. But unfortunately she tried a bit too hard, making the film’s second half feel lengthy and unedited.
Even so, given my reasonably low expectations, Zhao still gets full credits for her effort as a first-time director. Without her insightful input and observations, I think the film would have been worse.
Just as time wrinkles the skin but enriches the soul, an ordinary film may as well be the best motivation for Zhao to make better ones in the future.

A. This film has everything a popular fiction film should have.
B. The leading female character goes to college to have a bright future.
C. The school beauty who falls in love with a boy with a huge ego.
D. A bunch of vivid supporting characters make the film more colorful.
42. That the film goes wrong mainly because _______.
A. the film involves the characters’ trivial yet funny life on campus.
B. the film describes the characters’ current life and flashbacks of their college years
C. the film doesn’t focus on the comedic vibe but turns into a serious discussion about the meaning of life and love
D. the film describes how life has changed these characters
43. The word “ overhasty” in paragraph 6 is closest in meaning to_______.
A. surprising        B. obvious           C. hurried         D. complicated
