Today we’ll talk about the movie star Marilyn Monroe. She died many years ago, yet still is one of the best known American women.
Her name at birth was Norma Jean Baker. Her life as a child was like a bad dream. She lived with a number of different people, and often was mistreated.
[16]At age sixteen Norma Jean married a sailor. But she soon ended that marriage. She changed her hair color from brown to shining gold. And she changed her name to Marilyn Monroe.
She wanted to be an actress. And she succeeded. She appeared in a number of Hollywood movies. Millions of people went to see them. By the time Norma Jean had reached the age of twenty-six, her beautiful face and body earned her a place as one of America’s leading movie stars.
But success and fame were not enough to make her happy. The troubles of her childhood days stayed with her. She drank too much alcohol. She took too many drugs. At the age of thirty-six, she took her own life.
She has been dead since nineteen sixty-two. [17]Still, her fame continues to grow.
People born long after she died are watching her movies on television. Objects that belonged to her bring huge prices at public sales. [17]The Warner Brothers museum in Hollywood has the white dress she wore in one of her movies, "The Prince and the Showgirl."
People continue to talk about what they feel is her strange death. Some people believe she was murdered. Two investigations showed that she died as the result of too many drugs.
Why is the public still so interested in a woman who died so many years ago? A number of reasons. Her exciting but tragic life. Her connections with well-known people. And her image as an especially desirable woman.
[18]In the nineteen fifties, many Americans believed sex was a very private subject. People often severely judged those who were sexually appealing.
Into this atmosphere burst Marilyn Monroe. As one critic said, her body was round in all the right places. She wore her clothes like skin. When she walked, she moved her lower body in a way that few other actresses had done. Her voice was soft and breathy. She soon became America’s golden girl.
16. What do we learn about Marilyn Monroe?
17. What shows her continuing fame after death?
18. What was people’s attitude towards sexy women in 1950s?
选项
A、She is recognized as the best actress in history.
B、A lot of actresses are trying to imitate her acting.
C、Her white dress is kept in a Hollywood museum.
D、Her residence has became a popular tourist site.
答案

解析
虽然玛丽莲.梦露1962年就去世了,但是她的名气还在上升,比如在她去世很久之后出生的人们都在电视上观看她主演的影片;她的物品在拍卖会上售价很高;她在一部电影里穿的一条白色裙子就被收藏在好莱坞的华纳兄弟博物馆(Warner Brothers Museum)。因此本题选C项。
