问题     Read the texts in which there are five brief introductions about five famous film stars and their films. For questions 61 to 65, match the name of each person (61 to 65 ) to one of the recommended views ( A to G) given below. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.
   Charlie Chaplin
   He was cinema’s first truly global star and remains one of its strongest and most recognizable symbols, yet opinions on Charlie Chaplin are vastly divided. For some, he is the perfect screen comedian, whose Tramp character remains both an extremely funny clown and a potent reminder of the human condition. For others, he’s a vastly overrated old sentimentalist who just isn’t as funny as Laurel & Hardy, Buster Keaton, and the Marx Brothers etc.  Whatever your view, there’s no denying that this small and short British music hall comedian revolutionized both screen comedy and cinema as a whole.
   Michael Douglas
   For the early part of his career, Michael Douglas looked destined to make his mark either on television or behind the camera, where he picked up his first Oscar as one of the producers of One Flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest in 1975. However, starring as the raggedly handsome hero of the surprise hit, Romancing the Stone, turned things around for Douglas, who finally emerged from his father’s shadow and established himself as a Hollywood front.
   Shirley Temple
   The trick of being a child star is to quit while you’re ahead. There was a time when Shirley Temple was the most recognizable tot in the world, but not for her the difficult transition to adult roles, she went off and became a U. S. ambassador instead. A wise move for the little girl who once tap-danced her way into the collective heart of a Depression-era world. Temple began performing at the age of three and struggled to maintain this popularity during the 40s.
   Gregory Peck
   We look to actors for a certain kind of moral certainty we often don’t find in the real world. If any one star ever embodied that, it is Gregory Peck—the man who couldn’t break a million- pound note, who took on anti-Semitism even though he wasn’t Jewish. Peck found his feet in Hollywood during the years of WW Ⅱ; his first performance is that of an anti-Nazi resistance leader in Days of Glory (1944).
   Jim Carrey
   When Jim Carrey first bent over and started to appear in his first film in 1993, a star was born in a comically graphic way. The loose-limbed, rubber-faced, Canadian-born comic appeared to have arrived on screen fully formed, but Carrey’s overnight success was preceded by a decade long  stint as a stand-up, and occasional bit part actor-looking to him as a fuzzy alien in Earth. Girls Are Easy (1989) and a poodle-haired rocker in the Dirty Harry movie The Dead Pool (1988).
   Now match the name of each person (61 to 65) to one of the recommended views (A to G).
   Note: there are two extra recommended views.
   Statements
   [A] Romancing The Stone (1984), Fatal Attraction (1987), War Of The Roses (1989), Falling Down (1993) , The American President (1995)
   [B] 48 Hours (1982), Trading Places (1983)
   [C] The Golden Rush (1925), City Lights (1931), Modem Times (1036), Limelight (1952)
   [D] Little Miss Marker (1934), Curly Top (1935), The Littlest Rebel (1935), The Little Princess (1939)
   [E] The Mask (1994), Dumb &Dumber (1994), The Truman Show (1998), Man on the Moon (1999)
   [F] The Million Pound Note (1954), Moby Dick (1956), To Kill a Mockingbird,  The Omen (1976)
   [G] The Grapes of Wrath, Mister Roberts (1955)
