Hundreds of people gather in Hollywood to see the Oscars presented to the outstanding (杰出的 ) actors, and others involved (參與 ) in the motion picture industry. Millions more watch on television. It all began on May 16,1929, when 270 men and women sat down to dinner at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. There was no secret about the winners. The names of the winners had been known for months. Ja Gaynor, for example, had won as Best Actress. Douglas Fairbanks presented her with the famous gold statue (塑像 ). The little statue was not then called Oscar. Like a new actor, Oscar was unknown. About six years later, it somehow got that renowned name. A number of explanations have been offered for its origin (由來 ), but nobody knows the true story for certain. Nowadays the results of the Oscar voting are kept secret. Only two people know the winners before the names are announced at the ceremony. The counting of votes is not done by one group of people but by different groups. Nobody except two members of an accounting (計票 ) pany sees the final results. The information is not kept in open files (卷宗 ). Winners39。 names are placed in closed envelopes. The accountants each carry a plete of envelopes to the ceremony. One set is simply a spare to be used in case something happens to the other one. 29.

A. one for New York, one for Hollywood B. in order to be perfectly safe C. one for the ceremony, one for the newspapers D. just because that is the custom 答案與解析 B 根據最后一段的 “One se t is simply a spare to be used in case something happens to the other one.” 可知，用兩套信封裝選票是為安全著想，故答案為 B項。 D Here are a few books for your children to read as they grow up.
