輕松美語會話第1輯 好萊塢的歡樂小天使

[00:00.00]My name is Tommy Toon and I'm a big fan of entertainment . [00:01.91]我的名字叫托來·吐恩，我是個超級影迷， [00:03.82]I guess it's existed as long as people have gathered together to take time out from their everday lives. [00:06.75]我想娛樂自從人們能夠從日常生活中抽出時間聚在一起共度時光以來便存在了， [00:09.68]All it requires is an audience and well,maybe some talent. [00:12.15]它需要的是一群觀眾，或許還需要點財富。 [00:14.62]Today there's entertainment on every side to suit every taste with so many stars one can hardly keep track, [00:18.34]當今世界有各種各樣的娛樂來迎合各類不同的口味，而且明星如此之多，要保持對他們發(fā)展動態(tài)的熱烈追蹤可真不容易， [00:22.07]Imagine then a time when for more than five years,one small girl could grip the attention of an entire movie going world, [00:27.14]想象一下一個小女孩能夠連續(xù)五年之多的時間里，受到整個娛樂界的垂青和矚目，受到世界各階層人們的愛慕，是多么不容易。 [00:32.22]could be adored by the high and the mighty and by millions of ordinary folk. [00:34.78]正是受了她的影響，千百萬的孩子， [00:37.33]Because of her ,tens of thousands of kids including yours truly were set to tap classes . [00:40.48]當然也包括你的在內(nèi)，學起了踢撻舞。 [00:43.63]It happened in Hollywood. [00:44.42]所有這些事發(fā)生在好萊塢。 [00:45.22]and it happened not so long ago [00:46.89]而且就發(fā)生在不久以前。 [00:48.56]It was a matter of being the right person for a very special time,and yet it was much more . [00:52.24]似乎這不過是一個在特定的時代里出現(xiàn)了一個受歡迎的演員而已，但事實卻不僅僅如此。 [00:55.91]Before and since there was never anyone else quite like her,she was the child star loved by an entire world ,her name was Shirley Temple. [01:02.33]無論以前還是以后無人能夠與她相媲美，她是一位風靡全球的童星，她就是秀蘭·鄧波爾。 [01:08.76]For four years in a row form 1935 to 1938 Shirley Temple was the number one box office star in Hollywood , [01:13.28]1935年到1938年期間，有連續(xù)四年時間里秀蘭·鄧波爾是好萊塢最賣座的影星， [01:17.80]she was even more popular than Clark Gable,Robert Taylor,and GaryCooper , [01:20.73]好甚至比當時的當紅明星克拉克·蓋博、羅伯特·泰勒和加利·庫柏更有名， [01:23.66]Because of her films ,her studio ,Fox,were saved from bankruptcy. [01:26.56]因為她出演的電影，她的制片廠，福克斯電影公司幸免于破產(chǎn)。 [01:29.46]She had the natural charm and this great chrism that came out on the screen. [01:33.01]她在屏幕中處處流露出了一種自然的超的魅力。 [01:36.55]I know that everyday become the holiday when I am with you -- [01:40.40]你知道每個假期到來是誰陪伴你—— [01:44.26]Shirley Temple had this wonderful vibrant spontaneity and she had it in her singing,she had it in her dancing and she had it in her acting and that was what made her so wonderful. [01:49.98]這一點無論是在她的歌，她的舞，還是在她的表演中都表現(xiàn)出了，這就是她為什么如此受歡迎的原因。 [01:55.70]She was a product of the great depression . [01:57.14]她是美國經(jīng)濟大蕭條時期的產(chǎn)物。 [01:58.58]President Franklin Delinor Roosevelt recognized her appeal when her said that it was a splendid thing , [02:01.68]美國總統(tǒng)富蘭克林也意識到她的吸引力， [02:04.78]that for just fifteen cents,Americans can go to a movie and look at the smiling face of a little girl and forget their troubles. [02:09.24]他說：“當你心煩的時候，只需花上十五美分去看一場秀蘭的電影當你看到小女孩的燦爛笑臉時，你就會忘掉痛苦。
