D. Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题) (12分)
Born on April 23, 1928, in Santa Monica, California, Shirley Temple was a leading child film actress in the 1930s. When her performance of the song “On the Good Ship Lollipop” became famous, she earned a special Academy Award. Temple took on some acting roles as an adult before entering politics, becoming a U.S. Diplomat (外交官) for the United Nations. She died on February 10, 2014, at age 85, in California.
Child Star
Shirley Jane Temple was born to a banker and a housewife with two older children in California. When Temple was just three years old, she got a contract (合同) with Educational Pictures, making her first acting in a series of low-cost movies called Baby Burlesques.
Baby Burlesques led Temple to a contract with the Fox Film Corporation. When the young actress was six years old, she appeared in her first Hollywood film, Carolina. With Fox, Temple made a hit film Little Miss Marker. At that time, the young actress, singer and dancer with the golden curly hair and smiling face proved to be an overnight sensation (轰动) and a top earner for the studio.
President Franklin D. Roosevelt called Temple “Little Miss Miracle” for raising the public’s confidence and cheerfulness during the hard times. He said, “As long as our country has Shirley Temple, we will be all right.” Temple’s song-and-dance to the tune On the Good Ship Lollipop in 1934 earned her a special Academy Award “Outstanding Personality of 1934”.
Grown-Up Actress
When Shirley Temple began to grow older, she got less popular with audiences. As a teenager, she appeared in The Blue Bird (1940), which performed poorly at the box office. At age 19, she acted as Susan Turner in The Bachelor and the Bobby-Soxer with her friends Cary Grant and Myrna Loy. Though the film received some praise, audiences found it difficult to accept that their “Little Miss Miracle” was growing up.
During the 1950s and early 1960s, she made a few appearances on the small screen, but her career (职业) as a popular film star had ended at an earlier age than most actors’ had begun.
