河北省邢台市2014届高考英语二轮阅读理解基础训练题21阅读理解（共两节, 满分50分）第一节 阅读理解 （共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）AI wasnt surprised when I read that actress Helen Hunt recently stated that she would never allow her young daughter to become a child star. Ms Hunt is the daughter of a Hollywood technical director, and grew up in Hollywood. Now in her late 40s, she started acting and modeling when she was eight and has probably seen a lot over those years in show business.来源:www.shulihua.net She has had a successful career. She earned four Golden Globes and four Emmys. She also attained the top honor of her profession when she won the Best Actress Academy Award for her role in the 1992 movie, As Good As It Gets. Given those accolades, Ms Hunt is successful. There is no doubt that her early experiences as a child star prepared her for what has been an outstanding adult career. Given those achievements, why would this star declare shell never allow her daughter, now at the age of six, to follow in her footsteps? Everyone familiar with the entertainment scene is aware of the reasons for her attitude. Recent tabloid (小报) news headlines featuring the troubles of former child stars, among them Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears and the late Gary Coleman, may answer the question. Although Ms Hunt managed to become a successful grown-up star, she apparently believes shes an exception. What Ms Hunt may be suggesting is that many very young stars go through unnatural childhoods on movie and TV sets. While theyre earning big incomes, theyre so pampered (纵容) by directors and praised by fans; they may get false impressions that their lives will always be that way. Then, within a few years, when faced with reality, theyre hurt and confused. After all the overwhelming affection, they find they cant deal with the problems. Thats often when drugs and alcohol take over their lives.Helen Hunt has some other reasons why she doesnt want her daughter to be in the entertainment business. Many child stars can never make a successful transition to meaningful adulthood. However, as with many Hollywood movies, I believe there are both good and bad scenes about how it can be played out in real life.【文章大意】本文叙述了尽管著名女演员Helen Hunt是童星出身，但她不同意六岁的女儿演电影，因为它认为，许多童星的未来都是悲剧。26.
