3、 movie extra might seem like a lot of fun. you get to see what life is like behind the scenes. but dont forget that being an extra is really a job, and its mostly about doing nothing. first-time extras are often shocked to learn how slow the process of movie making is. in a finished movie,the action

13、sage that .a） being a movie extra can be boringb） movie extras need acting experiencec） movie extras can play larger partsd） movie actors are quite different from actors答案與題解：1. b 本文的第三段詳細(xì)敘述了群眾演員的主要工作要求是在拍攝現(xiàn)場等，不用做事，所以答案為b；第一段中描述了群眾演員的工作；他們是演員的陪襯，不用講話。雖然提到他們是在餐館里，但并沒有提是硒可以喝飲料，所以d可以排除；a中的only一詞太籠統(tǒng)，所以a

14、不對；從第四段可以看出，從群眾演員到演員的轉(zhuǎn)型是相當(dāng)困難的，所以c也不對。2 a 第二段中說明了令初做群眾演員感到吃驚的是：拍一個場景需要一整天，而播放時只有幾分鐘。雖然b、d都有所提及，但不是令他們吃驚的事情。3 c 雖然做群眾演員耗時長而薪酬低，但他們?yōu)槭裁催€選擇這一工作呢？答案在第四段：他們喜歡這份工作，愿意與別的群眾演員交流，他們自己的工作時間有彈性。a沒有提到，b、d不太可能。4 c 做群眾演員的條件是什么？在第三段和第四段，我們可知：要有耐心（長時間等待，一個場景有時要拍好多次），要肯吃苦（在惡劣的戶外環(huán)境中拍戲），報酬低，工作時間有彈性。a、b沒有提到；在第三段的第二句提到：yo

15、u may report to work at 5 or 6 a. m.，表明只是有時會很早開始工作，不是每日必須的，所以d不對。5 a 從本文對群眾演員的工作描述我們可以看出，群眾演員只是演員的道具，所以是乏味的。b沒有提到；據(jù)第四段的最后一句，c不對；第四段的最后一句清楚表明，群眾演員和真正的演員差別很大，所以不是得出的推論，推論是通過字里行間推出來的，不是給出的陳述。參考譯文：群眾演員的人生人們常常被電影和電影演員吸引，接近他們的方式之一就是當(dāng)群眾演員。雖然你見過群演員，但可能從沒注意過他們。群眾演員就是主角在餐廳對話時在后面坐著的人，是主角舉行婚禮時在現(xiàn)場的客人，是“壞人”被警察追捕的

16、時候過馬路的行人。雖然群眾演員通常沒有臺詞，但他們的存在使整個場景更真實(shí)。當(dāng)群眾演員看上去很有意思，你可以看到電影背后的情景。但是不要忘記群眾演員是一個職業(yè)，而這個職業(yè)常常意味著無事可做。第一次當(dāng)群眾演員的人常常會感到震驚：原來拍電影這么緩慢。電影成品中的場景會播放的很快，但在拍攝的時候，屏幕上幾分鐘的鏡頭可能需要拍一整天。對群眾演員來說，主要的要求就是要有耐心等待。可能告知你早晨五六點(diǎn)鐘工作，但你要一直等導(dǎo)演準(zhǔn)備好你要出演的一幕，可能一等就是幾個小時。說不定還會出現(xiàn)技術(shù)問題，那就要等更長的時間。導(dǎo)演說“開始”之后，你開始演你的第一場戲，要是導(dǎo)演不滿意，你就要重演一遍。實(shí)際上，一遍又一遍地重復(fù)

17、是常有的事。在拍攝現(xiàn)場，你可能一演就是幾個小時，有時還要一直待在很熱或很冷的環(huán)境中。工作可能會持續(xù)到晚上十一二點(diǎn)。報酬也不是那么理想很可能剛超過最低工資線，你還要從中拿出約lo%給向你提供工作的中介。究竟哪些人會想當(dāng)群眾演員呢？雖然工作時間長而報酬又低，但還是有很多人樂意申請這份工作。有些人是真心喜歡這份工作，他們喜歡出現(xiàn)在電影中，也樂意同其他群眾演員交，流。這些人中大部分都是時間比較靈活的人，這樣他們就能騰出時間來演戲。他們有可能是學(xué)生、服務(wù)生、家庭主婦、退休人員或者是失業(yè)的演員。一部分找不到工作的演員希望群眾演員的工作能夠幫助他們找到一份正式的演出工作，但是希望很渺茫。電影業(yè)里的人大都對群

18、眾演員和正式演員有嚴(yán)格的區(qū)分，通常不會考慮讓群眾演員出演大角色。下次看電影的時候，別總是盯著影星，也看一下做背景的人，問問你自己：他們是誰？什么在這里？在生活中他們做些什么呢？也許在人群中，就有人過著跟你相似的生活。going her own waywhen she was twelve, maria made her first important decision about the course of her life. she decided that she wanted to continue her education. most girls from middle-class

19、farmlies chose to stay home after primary school, though some attended private catholic “finishing” schools. there they leamed a little about music, art, needlework, and how to make polite conversation. this was not the sort of education that interested maria - or her mother. by this time, she had b

21、 that very few girls did. in italy at the time, there were two types of high schools： the “classical” schools and the “technical” schools. in the classical schools, the students followed a very traditional program of studies, with courses in latin and greek language and literature, and italian liter

29、d not leam latin5. high school teachers in ltaly in those days were .a） very modem b） very intelligentc） quite scientific d） quite strict答案與題解：1c 本題的問題是：maria想去個怎樣的學(xué)校？由文中第三段可明確得出結(jié)論。“maria，however, wanted to attend a technical school.” a、b、d項均有明顯錯誤。2c 本題的問題是：在當(dāng)時的意大利大多數(shù)女孩的選擇是什么？由文中第一段可知“most girls fro

30、m middle-class families chose to stay home after primary school，”所以本題的正確答案為c。3b 本題為推理題，問題是：從全文可以得出什么樣的結(jié)論?a選項未提及。c選項錯誤，原文只說大多數(shù)女孩子都選擇待在家里，并未說她們都不喜歡讀書。d選項錯誤，原文只說就算是上學(xué)的話大多數(shù)女孩子也都選擇傳統(tǒng)學(xué)校，而并非只有女孩于才可以去。所以正確答案為b。4b 本題的問題是：maria的父親對女性的態(tài)度是什么？由文中第三段倒數(shù)第二句“most people - including marias father - believed that girls would never be able to understand these s
