When Spanish explorers first entered the area now known as Hollywood, Native Americans were living in the canyons of the Santa Monica Mountains. Before long, the Indians had been moved to missions and the land which Hollywood now occupies was divided in two by the Spanish Government. Acreage to the west became part of Rancho La Brea and settlements to the East became Rancho Los Feliz.

By the 1870s an agricultural community flourished in the area and crops ranging from hay and grain to subtropical bananas and pineapples were thriving. During the 1880s, the Ranchos were sub-divided. In 1886, H. H. Wilcox bought an area of Rancho La Brea that his wife then christened "Hollywood." Within a few years, Wilcox had devised a grid plan for his new community, paved Prospect Avenue (now Hollywood Boulevard) for his main street and was selling large residential lots to wealthy Midwesterners looking to build homes so they could "winter in California."
Prospect Avenue soon became a prestigious residential street populated with large Queen Anne, Victorian, and Mission Revival houses. Mrs. Daeida Wilcox raised funds to build churches, schools and a libraryand Hollywood quickly became a complete and prosperous community. The community incorporated in 1903, but its independence was short-lived, as the lack of water forced annexation in 1910 to the city of Los Angeles, which had a surplus supply of water.
In 1911, the Nestor Company opened Hollywood's first film studio in an old tavern on the corner of Sunset and Gower. Not long thereafter Cecil B. DeMille and D. W. Griffith began making movies in the areadrawn to the community for its open space and moderate climate.

這篇是《當幸福來敲門》的英語賞析
我在英文賞析課上老師介紹的 非常適合高中生看
I don』t know for sure whether it is the cold or the movie that kept me tossing and turning in bed, but one thing is certain: many scattered fragments of the movie again and again flashed in my mind. My cell phone read 4:16 am at that time, but I was not sleepy at all. So I decided to get up and write something.
"The Pursuit of Happyness" -- the title comes from a misspelled schoolhouse mural -- has a lot on its mind but mostly this: If America is about the promise of bettering oneself, why does it have to be so freaking hard? In the movie, Jefferson's Declaration of Independence words about happiness kept recurring to Chris Gardner. Every day, Christ had to work hard from morning till night, but still could hardly make a living. Chris saw a bunch of suits, mostly male, pouring out of the Dean Witter Reynolds brokerage firm in downtown San Francisco. They all looked 「happy,」 「Why not me? 「 Christ wondered. He did have an adorable boy, Christopher, but wife Linda was becoming a scarecrow of overworked anxiety. Finally, his wife left Christ because of life pressure, leaving him and her five-year-old son, Christopher. And naturally, Christ became a single father.
With the failure of his business, Christ had no money to pay for the rent, so they were driven away from the flat. They became homeless. They slept in asylum, subway station public bathroom or anywhere as a temporary shelter. The destitution of life was absolutely depressing, but for his son』s future, for his own belief, Christ never gave up and he still strongly believed that happiness would come one day if he worked hard enough today.
With his great efforts, Christ won a six-month internship at Dean Witter, but there was no pay at all. So on one hand, Christ had to work hard to make a living; on the other hand, he had to fight for his intern work, since only one of the twenty interns would succeed finally. Besides, he had to take good care of his son after day care. However, Christ made it with his amazing willpower.
Christ was unfortunate, for he got a wife who was not understandable at all (though she has her own difficulties) and was in bad luck with his business. But he was very fortunate also, for he got a son who was very thoughtful and, I think, tough life experiences always make a great person.
It is said that this movie is inspired by a true story, and I want to say, this movie does inspire me a lot. What impressed me most are: Christ』s wife left him because of life pressure; Christ』s love to his son and Christ』s strong belief towards life. Through these, I know that it is not easy to be a good husband and a good Papa, since in reality, only love cannot only make everything. And I also learn that one has to strongly believe in himself, no matter how difficult the situation is, but of course, hard-working is indispensable.
這絕對是一部經典的電影 但是有點長 所以我把中文意思也給你 你可以依照自己的喜好節選

阿甘是一個出生很不幸的人,通常人們總是認為這種人不能成功, 在做任何事情過程中。 但是,相反,這個不幸的人已經取得許多難以置信的成功,他是一個足球明星,一名戰爭英雄和一個百萬富翁!
1995年的第六十七屆奧斯卡金像獎最佳影片的角逐中,影片《阿甘正傳》一舉獲得了最佳影片、最佳男主角、最佳導演、最佳改編劇本、最佳剪輯和最佳視覺效果等六項大獎。影片通過對一個存在智力障礙者生活的描述反映了美國生活的方方面面,從一個獨特的角度對美國幾十年來社會政治生活中的重要事件作了展現。影片改編自溫斯頓·格魯姆的同名小說。只不過原著是一本充滿了諷刺意味的荒誕小說,而影片則對故事進行了修飾和美化。摒棄了原著的荒誕和揭露諷刺意味,為影片增添了一種溫情。這無疑使影片更合觀眾和評委的口味,但卻犧牲了原著的叛逆斗爭精神,使影片成為了一種理想化道德的象徵。
阿甘在影片中被塑造成了美德的化身,誠實、守信、認真、勇敢而重視感情。在影片中,阿甘是十分純潔的形象,而珍妮則成了墮落的象徵。這與原著有著極大的出入。對於所敘述的一切,影片自始自終都是以一種溫情和善意的態度來表現的,甚至還加入了詩意化的成分,這使得影片顯得柔和而無傷害性。影片對傳統道德觀念的宣揚和體現。使影片變得易為人們所接受,導演高超的編排技巧和電影語言的運用也使影片十分吸引人。影片的內容為影片商業上的成功提供了保證,而導演藝術上的處理也使得影片更加精彩,這就是影片成功的原因所在。《阿甘正傳》成了美國當年最為賣座的電影之一。
湯姆·漢克斯在影片中的表演十分朴實自然。他以在此片中的表現獲得了奧斯卡最佳男主角的桂冠。這已是他連續獲得的第二個影帝金像。《阿甘正傳》的成功,也使湯姆·漢克斯成了好萊塢最受歡迎的影星之一。對湯姆·漢克斯來說,那兩年是他演藝生涯中最為幸運的一段日子。
《蜘蛛俠2》英語影評
So what's your choice between being a common person or a hero with people's respects? Most people will choose the latter. But what will be your choice if the cost is laying your lover among the risks? What will it be if the cost is you can never tell the girl, who you love so much, that you love her? The spider man had this contradiction. But finally he still chose the latter, not in order to be a hero, but to make this word peaceful.
I was so moved by the words the Aunt Mary said:
You will never guess what he wants to be, the spider man. He knows the hero when he sees one, too a few characters out there, flying all around out there, saving old girls like me. Lord knows kids like Henry need hero courageous, sacrificing for people, setting examples for all of us. Everybody loves a hero. People enthrone them, cheer them, scream their names and years later they will tell how they stood in the rain for hours just to get a glimpse the one who taught them to hold on to stand longer. I believe there is a hero in all of us. They keep us be honest, give us strength, make us noble, and finally allow us to die with proud. Ever though sometimes we have to initiatively give up the thing we want most, even our dreams. Spider man did that for Henry, so he wants to know where he is gone. He needs him.
The spider man got much from these words, so did I. And what about you? what's the hero lying in you?
《勇敢的心》這篇是經典的奧斯卡影片
Brave Heart, the winner of Oscar Prize, is about the war between England and Scotland.
But in the movie, the most important thing is not fighting. It is the pursuit of freedom that attract me most. In the age mentioned in the movie, England ruled Scotland in a cruel way. People in Scotland rebelled.
Wallace, leader of the rebellion, was a real hero. He fought bravely with his soldiers, for neither wealth nor power. What they want the most is that they could live a free life.
After long-time fighting, the rebellion was beaten down and Wallace was arrested. The ruler gave hime a last chance to confess and promised him if he did so, he might not be sentenced.
But what's Wallace's choice. At the last of his life, he abandoned the chance to survive and cried out, 'freedom'. This was the word that all people in Scotland wanted to say.
This movie is my favorite. It tells me that there is something named freedom which is more important than life

好長時間以來,安迪不和任何人接觸,在大家報怨的同時,他在院子里很悠閑地散步,就象在公園里一樣。一個月後,安迪請阿瑞幫他搞的第一件東西是一把小的鶴嘴鋤,他的解釋是他想雕刻一些小東西以消磨時光,並說他自己想辦法逃過獄方的例行檢查。不久,阿瑞就玩上了安迪刻的國際象棋。之後,安迪又搞了一幅麗塔.海華絲的巨幅海報貼在了牢房的牆上。

一個年輕犯人的到來打破了安迪平靜的獄中生活:這個犯人以前在另一所監獄服刑時聽到過安迪的案子,他知道誰是真凶!但當安迪向監獄長提出要求重新審理此案時,卻遭到了斷然拒絕,並受到了單獨禁閉兩個月的嚴重懲罰。為了防止安迪獲釋,監獄不惜設計害死了知情人!
面對殘酷的現實,安迪變得很消沉……有一天,他對阿瑞說:「如果有一天,你可以獲得假釋,一定要到某個地方替我完成一個心願。那是我第一次和妻子約會的地方,把那裡一棵大橡樹下的一個盒子挖出來。到時個你就知道是什麼了。」當天夜裡,風雨交加,雷聲大作,已得到靈魂救贖的安迪越獄成功。
原來二十年來,安迪每天都在用那把小鶴嘴鋤挖洞,然後用海報將洞口遮住。安迪出獄後,領走了部分監獄長存的黑錢,並告發了監獄長貪污受賄的真相。監獄長在自己存小賬本的保險櫃里見到的是安迪留下的一本聖經,里邊挖空的部分放這一把幾乎磨成圓頭的鶴嘴鋤。
阿瑞獲釋了,他在橡樹下找到了一盒現金,兩個老朋友終於在墨西哥陽光明媚的海濱重逢了。

J. 用英語介紹好萊塢的歷史
Hollywood is a district in Los Angeles, California, U.S.A., situated west-northeast of Downtown. Due to its fame and cultural identity as the historical center of movie studios and stars, the word "Hollywood" is often used as a metonym for the American film and television instry. Today much of the movie instry has dispersed into surrounding areas such as Burbank and the Westside, but significant ancillary instries (such as editing, effects, props, post-proction, and lighting companies) remain in Hollywood.
Many historic Hollywood theaters are used as venues and concert stages to premiere major theatrical releases, and host the Academy Awards. It is a popular destination for nightlife and tourism, and home to the Walk of Fame.
Although it is not the typical practice of the City of Los Angeles to establish specific boundaries for districts or neighborhoods, Hollywood is a recent exception. On February 16, 2005, Assembly Members Goldberg and Koretz introced a bill to require the State to keep specific records on Hollywood as though it were independent. For this to be done, the boundaries were defined. This bill was unanimously supported by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce and the LA City Council. Assembly Bill 588 was approved by the Governor on August 28, 2006, and now the district of Hollywood has official borders. The border is shown at the right, and can be loosely described as the area east of Beverly Hills and West Hollywood, south of Mulholland Dr., Laurel Canyon, Cahuenga Blvd. and Barham Blvd., and the cities of Burbank and Glendale, north of Melrose Avenue, and west of the Golden State Freeway and Hyperion Avenue. Note that this includes all of Griffith Park and Los Feliz—two areas that were hitherto generally considered separate from Hollywood by most Angelinos. The population of the district (including Los Feliz) as of the 2000 census was 208,237 [1].
As a portion of the City of Los Angeles, Hollywood does not have its own municipal government, but does have an appointed official that serves as "honorary mayor" for ceremonial purposes only. Currently, the "mayor" is Johnny Grant. Since this is a non-elected, honorary position, Grant has held this position for decades.
In 1853, one adobe hut stood on the site that became Hollywood. By 1870, an agricultural community flourished in the area with thriving crops. In the 1880s, Harvey Henderson Wilcox of Kansas, who made a fortune in real estate even though he had lost the use of his legs e to typhoid fever, and his wife, Daeida who is originally from Hicksville, Ohio, moved to Los Angeles from Topeka. In 1886, Wilcox bought 160 acres (0.6 km²) of land in the countryside to the west of the city at the foothills and the Cahuenga Pass.
A locally popular etymology is that the name Hollywood traces to the ample stands of native Toyon, or "California Holly," that cover the hillsides with clusters of bright red berries each winter. But this and accounts of the name coming from imported English holly then growing in the area are not confirmed. There is some disagreement as to who was the first to name the place Hollywood. One account says that the name was coined by H. J. Whitley,[1] the Father of Hollywood. He and his wife Gigi reportedly came up with the name in 1886 while on their honeymoon (from Margaret Virginia Whitley´s memoir).[1] Another account is that Mrs. Wilcox coined the name in 1883; while on a train she became acquainted with a wealthy lady who often spoke of her country home named after a settlement of Dutch immigrants from Zwolle called "Hollywood", and when she returned to Los Angeles she so named her country place.
By 1900, the community called Cahuenga also had a post office, a newspaper, a hotel and two markets, along with a population of 500. Los Angeles, with a population of 100,000 people at the time, lay seven miles (11 km) east through the citrus groves. A single-track streetcar line ran down the middle of Prospect Avenue from Los Angeles, but service was infrequent and the trip took two hours. The old citrus fruit packing house would be converted into a livery stable, improving transportation for the inhabitants of Hollywood.
The first section of the famous Hollywood Hotel, the first major hotel in Hollywood, was opened in 1902 by H. J. Whitley, eager to sell residential lots among the lemon ranches then lining the foothills. Flanking the west side of Highland Avenue, the structure fronted on Prospect Avenue. Still a sty, unpaved road, it was regularly graded and graveled.
Hollywood was incorporated as a municipality in 1903. Among the town ordinances was one prohibiting the sale of liquor except by pharmacists and one outlawing the driving of cattle through the streets in herds of more than two hundred. In 1904, a new trolley car track running from Los Angeles to Hollywood up Prospect Avenue was opened. The system was called "the Hollywood boulevard." It cut travel time to and from Los Angeles drastically.
By 1910, because of an ongoing struggle to secure an adequate water supply, the townsmen voted for Hollywood to be annexed into the City of Los Angeles, as the water system of the growing city had opened the Los Angeles Aquect and was piping water down from the Owens River in the Owens Valley. Another reason for the vote was that Hollywood could have access to drainage through Los Angeles´ sewer system.
With annexation, the name of Prospect Avenue was changed to Hollywood Boulevard and all the street numbers in the new district changed. For example, 100 Prospect Avenue, at Vermont Avenue, became 6400 Hollywood Boulevard; and 100 Cahuenga Boulevard, at Hollywood Boulevard, changed to 1700 Cahuenga Boulevard.
