Think today’s kids want to be doctors or lawyers? No. YouTube stardom (明星) is the number one dream career for young people today, at least according to a widely publicized survey by a British newspaper.
The appeal is obvious: Some 20-somethings are making millions by playing video games or sharing beauty tips online. But the pressure of having to endlessly produce original content that makes them look accessible, transparent, and authentic has proven too much for some people, including Essena O’Neill. The former social media figure went public in her posts about experiencing symptoms of depression and anxiety from living an overexposed life.
Living professionally online has also been a challenge for 24-year-old Lauren Riihimaki. Six million people follow her YouTube channel, LaurDIY, which covers topics ranging from home decorating to her adoption of a lovely little dog.
Most of these stars are between the ages of 20 and 26. Unlike movie stars or rock stars, these videostars do most of their work themselves. They’re responsible for everything from developing an idea, to physically producing it, to starring in it, to directing it, to editing it, to programming it, to promoting and marketing. And to keep their hungry audiences satisfied, they should be doing all that at least twice a week.
That’s why Lauren Riihimaki came close not just to burning out, but breaking down. She has overcome and pushed the boundaries of her anxiety so insanely since she started YouTube. She sees a psychologist and she’s on medication (药物治疗). And that’s been working for her.
Dana Julian, a Los Angeles psychologist, says one of the hardest things about managing life as a YouTube star is making a career out of something that can be an addiction. Anyone with a Facebook, Twitter or Instagram account is familiar with the rush to show off. But now, imagine it magnified (放大) by millions of clicks, likes and followers.
For YouTube stars, when they’re clearly overwhelmed, they should be told to get offline for a while. Stop being a brand. Take some time, just to be a person again.
What do we know about Essena O’Neill?
选项
A、She suffered from anxiety because of her love life.
B、She pretended to be authentic and accessible.
C、She was overburdened with debt and work.
D、She might not be a social media star any more.
答案
D
解析
推理判断题。定位句提到,他们不得不无休止地制作那些看起来易理解、透明和真实的原创内容,而这种压力对包括埃森娜.奥尼尔在内的一些人而言都太大了。接着指出,她以前是社交媒体人,公开贴出了自己由于过度曝光生活而经历的抑郁症和焦虑症状。由此推断,她现在可能不再是社交媒体明星了,故答案为D)。A)“她因爱情生活而焦虑”,由定位句可知她的抑郁症和焦虑症状与爱情生活无关,故排除;B)“她假装真实、易接近”,定位句提到他们不得不无休止地制作那些看起来易理解、透明和真实的原创内容,并未说她本身不真实、不易接近,故排除;C)“她的债务和工作负担过重”,文中并没有提及债务,故排除。
