Question

【题目】 Hollywood is a shiny, bright place. It is the movie capital of the world. And it is also one of the tourist destinations (目的地) in America.

In 1911, the small, peaceful village of Hollywood in California was vote to become part of Los Angeles. Today, over 100 years later, this village has grown into the home of one of the most well-known industries in the world-the American film industry.

With this growth came many well-known symbols. There is the famous Hollywood sign which stands above the hills of the town. The first sign was built in 1923. Then there is the Hollywood Hall of Fame (名人堂), where great actresses, actors and directors leave their footprints or handprints, Norma Talmadge was the first actress to do this in 1927. But the most famous of all is the Oscar Academy Awards. Every spring, a large number of actresses, actors and directors wait excitedly and nervously to find out if they have won an "Oscar". Last year was the 91th Oscar Academy Awards. It was held on February 25 in Los Angeles, Ang Lee, a Chinese director, won the Award for Best Director again. It was the second time he had won the award.

Nowadays it is the home of films, and thousands of hopeful young actresses, actors, writers and directors still come to "the Dream Factory" every year. But not all Hollywood dreams have been happy ones-as one actress, who later died tragically (悲惨地),said, "Hollywood is a place where they will pay you 500 dollars for a kiss, and 50 cents for your soul(灵魂)."
