美國著名艷麗女郎帕麗斯·希爾頓,你該知道吧?這個妹妹時不時在自家門前做點蠢事,然后全世界媒體就鋪天蓋地的報道,把她批得體無完膚。哎!誰讓她長得漂亮又是富家閨女呢?這次希爾頓又做什么蠢事上娛樂新聞的頭條了?天哪!鬧大了呢!
日前在雙子塔懲教中心服刑的帕麗斯·希爾頓已于2007年6月13日晚11時遷往她最初服刑的Century拘留中心,預料她會在那里完成余下刑期。媽媽凱基(Kathy Hilton)和妹妹妮基(Nicky Hilton)心情好了許多,兩人一起到餐廳享美食。媽媽凱基更是大方跟fans合影。我倒。這個家里都是些什么人啊?
但是事情總是有好轉的一面。來看看她的最新動向是啥。
1. Paris Hilton plans to appear on CNN’s“Larry King Live”on Wednesday night, a day after she’s scheduled to be released from jail, a spokeswoman for King said Saturday.“We do have Paris on Wednesday,”said the show’s spokeswoman, Bridget Leininger.“She’ll do the whole hour.”
2. Hilton spokesman Elliott Mintz didn’t immediately return a call seeking comment.
3. CNN’s announcement followed competition for the interview between ABC and NBC that ended Friday with both networks saying they were no longer interested. Both networks were embarrassed by reports that they were willing to pay the Hilton family for materials related to an interview. CBS said it has never pursued the interview.
4.“Larry doesn’t pay for interviews or do ground rules,”Leininger said. The show will air from 9 to 10 p.m.
5. The hotel heiress and reality TV star is serving a 45-day sentence for violating probation in an alcohol-related reckless driving case. Sheriff’s Department officials announced Friday that they expect to release her sometime Tuesday, but declined to be more specific.
6. Although her sentence was for 45 days, authorities(官方)have said all along that with time off for good behavior and because of crowded jail conditions Hilton was likely to serve only 23 days.
7. If she is released on Tuesday, it will mark the 24th day since she surrendered to jailers following an appearance at the MTV Movie Awards in which she walked the red carpet in a flashy, strapless evening gown.
8. Hilton’s release is expected to unleash a media frenzy, and transportation officials announced Friday that they will temporarily ban parking on several streets in her Hollywood Hills neighborhood beginning on Monday. Neighbors have complained of cars jamming their streets and helicopters flying low overhead every time there is a development in the Hilton case.

Keys
1. B。從第一段就可以得知是CNN要做希爾頓出獄后第一次直播。不要被第三段一系列的美國電臺所迷惑。
2. A。從第三段可以得知CNN與ABC、NBC在爭取希爾頓錄制節目上進行爭斗。而第三段第一句后面的從句又表明,ABC與NBC已經失去興趣,故他們不會做直播。而在最后一句,文章暗示CBS從來就不想做希爾頓訪談。故只有A選項正確。
3. C。希爾頓自己從來沒有官方發言。這篇文章用的是現在時態,這表明她還在監獄里呢。Larry King是訪談主持人,因為節目是以他的名字命名的。而第一段結尾點明放話的是Bridget Leininger,節目的發言人。Elliott Mintz是希爾頓的發言人,在第二段中,他并沒有立即回復此問題。
4. A。答案分別在第一段和第四段。這道題主要考查你是否細心,不要被第七段迷惑。她星期二出監獄,星期三錄制節目。
5. D。稍微關注一下娛樂動態都會知道這個題目的答案吧!不過選項A有一個新的單詞倒是挺迷惑人的。heiress是“女后裔、女繼承人”的意思。要是因為她是酒店大亨的女后裔而鋃鐺入獄,那他老爹也不會干吧!
6. C。23天。絕對不迷惑人。不知道的別來找我。
7. C。她不表現好的話,怎么出監獄呢?他老爸老媽也沒那么大本事從警察局里把她弄出來吧!看來金錢不是萬能的。
8. D。最后一段中media frenzy就是媒體熱。她的鄰居們都該煩了。為什么?要是你家樓頂上成天飛直升機,樓下成天亮閃光燈,你也該煩了吧。
