Hollywood’s true heroes are losing their jobs. Stunt people(替身演员)who entertained cinema-goers by falling for the sky, swimming with sharks and driving fast cars have been replaced by technology. After generations of street fights, high falls, and setting fire to themselves, these people have had nearly all their work replaced by computers. The most dangerous and costly stunts can now be achieved by mixing computer picture with live action.
In the mid-1990s there were 12,000 registered stunt people, but more than half of them had difficulty finding work. Sometimes, six or seven teams would be working on a film. Then, after a few days, the producers would come in and say, "You can go home."
The reason was simple: cost. Computer technology made it possible to create stunts which would either be too expensive or too dangerous to attempt. With the rise of digital technology(数字技术), insurance companies became more reluctant to cover real stunts. "If they know it can be done safely with visual effects, the companies will not insure real stunts," said a stunt person.
Many in their industry believe stunt people should develop expertise in the new technology, acting as advisers on the virtual stunts. Some, however, think that stunt people can survive in their traditional careers. They believe that audiences won’t accept stunts produced by computers for too long.
Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
选项
A、Computers will surely make stunt people lose jobs.
B、The stunt people should blame on the use of computer in making stunts.
C、Computers make the job of the stunt people more challenging.
D、Audiences are losing interest in the stunt people.
答案
C
解析
推理判断题。本题询问关于这篇文章下面哪一种说法正确。文章最后一段第一句话指出,在新的科技环境下(即指电脑正在取代替身演员的工作这样的环境下),替身演员们应该提高自己的专业技术水平,这也就是说,电脑使替身演员的工作更具有挑战性,故选项C为正确答案。
