get closer to this world is to become a movie extra. although you have seen movie extras, you may not have paid attention to them. extras are the people seated at tables in a restaurant while the two main actors are in conversation. they are the guests at the wedding of the main characters. they are the people crossing the street while “the bad guy is being chased by the police. extras dont normally speak any lines, but they help make the scenes look real.人们常常被电影和电影演员吸引，接近他们的方式之一就是当群众演员。虽然你见过群演员，但可能从没注意过他们。群众演员就是主角在餐厅对话时在后面坐着的人，主角举行婚礼时在现场的客人，是“坏人”被警察追捕的时候过马路的行人。虽然群众演员通常没有台词，但他们的存在使整个场景更真实。2.being a 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 may move quickly. but it can sometimes take a whole day to shoot a scene that appears for just a few minutes on the screen.当群众演员看上去很有意思，你可以看到电影背后的情景。但是不要忘记群众演员是一个职业，而这个职业常常意味着无事可做。第一次当群众演员的人常常会感到震惊：原来拍电影这么缓慢。电影成品中的场景会播放的很快，但在拍摄的时候，屏幕上几分钟的镜头可能需要拍一整天。3.the main requirement for being an extra is the ability to wait. you may report to work at 5 or 6 a. m., and then you wait until the director is ready for your scene. this could take several hours. then there maybe technical problems, and you have to wait some more. after the director says “action” and you do the first “take”，you may have to do it again if he or she is not satisfied with the scene. in fact, you may have to do the same scene over and over again. you could be on the set for hours, sometimes waiting outdoors in very hot or cold weather. you may not be finished until 11 p. m. or midnight. the pay isnt good, either often only a little bit above minimum wage. and you must pay the agent who gets you the job a commission of about 10 percent.对群众演员来说，主要的要求就是要有耐心等待。可能告知你早晨五六点钟工作，但你要一直等导演准备好你要出演的一幕，可能一等就是几个小时。说不定还会出现技术问题，那就要等更长的时间。导演说“开始”之后，你开始演你的第一场戏，要是导演不满意，你就要重演一遍。实际上，一遍又一遍地重复是常有的事。在拍摄现场，你可能一演就是几个小时，有时还要一直待在很热或很冷的环境中。工作可能会持续到晚上十一二点。报酬也不是那么理想很可能刚超过最低工资线，你还要从中拿出约10%给向你提供工作的中介。4.so who would want to be a movie extra? in spite of the long hours and low pay, many people still apply for the job. some people truly enjoy the work. they like being on a movie set, and they enjoy the companionship of their fellow extras. most of them have flexible schedules, which allow them to be available. they may be students, waiters, homemakers, retired people, or unemployed actors. some unemployed actors hope the work will help them get real acting jobs, but it doesnt happen often. most people in the movie industry make a sharp distinction between extras and actors, so extras are not usually considered for large parts.究竟哪些人会想当群众演员呢？虽然工作时间长而报酬又低，但还是有很多人乐意申请这份工作。有些人是真心喜欢这份工作，他们喜欢出现在电影中，也乐意同其他群众演员交流。这些人中大部分都是时间比较灵活的人，这样他们就能腾出时间来演戏。他们有可能是学生、服务生、家庭主妇、退休人员或者是失业的演员。一部分找不到工作的演员希望群众演员的工作能够帮助他们找到一份正式的演出工作，但是希望很渺茫。电影业里的人大都对群众演员和正式演员有严格的区分，通常不会考虑让群众演员出演大角色。5.the next time you see a movie, dont just watch the stars. take a closer look at the people in the background, and ask yourself: who are they? why are they there? what else do they do in life? maybe there is someone in the crowd who is just like you.下次看电影的时候，别总是盯着影星，也看一下做背景的人，问问你自己：他们是谁？为什么在这里？在生活中他们做些什么呢？也许在人群中，就有人过着跟你相似的生活。注释：1extras dont normally speak any lines, but they help make the scenes look real：虽然群众演员通常没有台词，但他们的存在使整个场景更加逼真。2you could be on the set for hours，sometimes waiting outdoors in very hot or cold weather：在拍摄现场，你可能一演就是几个小时，有时还要一直待在很热或很冷的环境中。on the set：在拍摄现场。3most of them have flexible schedules, which allow them to be available：这些人中大部分都是时间比较灵活的人，这样他们就能腾出时间来演戏。练习：1what is true about movie extras?a)only agents get them jobs in movies.b) they often have to wait around on movie sets and do nothing.c)its a good way to get a real acting job.d)they can have drinks in a restaurant.答案在第2段2what might surprise movie extras the first time they do the job?a)it can take hours to

people work as movie extras?a)they like meeting famous movie stars.b)they think they will become famous.c)they want to be on a movie set.d)they will get real acting jobs.答案在第4段4what are the job requirements for being a movie extra?a)you have to have a part-time job.b)you must be attractive.c)you must be willing to repeat a scene many times.d)you must start working very early.答案在第3段5it can be inferred from the passage that .a)being a movie extra can be boring无聊的；令人厌烦的b)movie extras need acting experiencec)movie extras can play larger parts演大多量的部份d)movie actors are quite different from actors答案与题解：1b本文的第三段详细叙述了群众演员的主要工作要求是在拍摄现场等，不用做事，所以答案为b；第一段中描述了群众演员的工作；他们是演员的陪衬，不用讲话。虽然提到他们是在餐馆里，但并没有提是否可以喝饮料，所以d可以排除；a中的only 词太笼统，所以a不对；从第四段可以看出，从群众演员到演员的转型是相当困难的，所以c也不对。2a第二段中说明了令初做群众演员感到吃惊的是：拍一个场景需要一整天，而播放时只有几分钟。虽然b、d都有所提及，但不是令他们吃惊的事情。3c虽然做群众演员耗时长而薪酬低，但他们为什么还选择这一工作呢？答案在第四段：他们喜欢这份工作，愿意与别的群众演员交流，他们自己的工作时间有弹性。a没有提到，b、d不太可能。4c做群众演员的条件是什么？在第三段和第四段，我们可知：要有耐心（长时间等待，一个场景有时要拍好多次），要肯吃苦（在恶劣的户外环境中拍戏），报酬低，工作时间有弹性。a、b没有提到；在第三段的第二句提到：you may report to work at 5 or 6 a. m. 表明只是有时会很早开始工作，不是每日必须的，所以d不对。5a从本文对群众演员的工作描述我们可以看出，群众演员只是演员的道具，所以是乏味的。b没有提到；据第四段的最后一句，c不对；第四段的最后一句清楚表明，群众演员和真正的演员差别很大，所以不是得出的推论，推论是通过字里行间推出来的，不是给出的陈述。第三十六篇 群众演员的人生人们常常被电影和电影演员吸引，接近他们的方式之一就是当群众演员。虽然你见过群演员，但可能从没注意过他们。群众演员就是主角在餐厅对话时在后面坐着的人，是主角举行婚礼时在现场的客人，是“坏人”被警察追捕的时候过马路的行人。虽然群众演员通常没有台词，但他们的存在使整个场景更真实。当群众演员看上去很有意思，你可以看到电影背后的情景。但是不要忘记群众演员是一个职业，而这个职业常常意味着无事可做。第一次当群众演员的人常常会感到震惊：原来拍电影这么缓慢。电影成品中的场景会播放的很快，但在拍摄的时候，屏幕上几分钟的镜头可能需要拍一整天。对群众演员来说，主要的要求就是要有耐心等待。可能告知你早晨五六点钟工作，但你要一直等导演准备好你要出演的一幕，可能一等就是几个小时。说不定还会出现技术问题，那就要等更长的时间。导演说“开始”之后，你开始演你的第一场戏，要是导演不满意，你就要重演一遍。实际上，一遍又一遍地重复是常有的事。在拍摄现场，你可能一演就是几个小时，有时还要一直待在很热或很冷的环境中。工作可能会持续到晚上十一二点。报酬也不是那么理想很可能刚超过最低工资线，你还要从中拿出约10%给向你提供工作的中介。究竟哪些人会想当群众演员呢？虽然工作时间长而报酬又低，但还是有很多人乐意申请这份工作。有些人是真心喜欢这份工作，他们喜欢出现在电影中，也乐意同其他群众演员交流。这些人中大部分都是时间比较灵活的人，这样他们就能腾出时间来演戏。他们有可能是学生、服务生、家庭主妇、退休人员或者是失业的演员。一部分找不到工作的演员希望群众演员的工作能够帮助他们找到一份正式的演出工作，但是希望很渺茫。电影业里的人大都对群众演员和正式演员有严格的区分，通常不会考虑让群众演员出演大角色。下次看电影的时候，别总是盯着影星，也看一下做背景的人，问问你自己：他们是谁？为什么在这里？在生活中他们做些什么呢？也许在人群中，就有人过着跟你相似的生活。第三十六篇

亡注：从第一句了看出这是一篇讲故事的文章it had been boring无聊的hanging about闲待 the hotel all afternoon. the road crew一组工作人员 were playing a game with dollar notes美元. folding them into small planes to see whose would fly the furthest.1 having nothing better to do，i joined in and won five，and then took the opportunity 机会 to escape逃 with my profit利润. despite the evil-looking clouds，i had to get out for a while.在宾馆里闲待一个下午是很无聊的。巡回乐团道具管理组的成员在用美元玩儿游戏，把纸币折成纸飞机的形状然后看谁飞得最远。因为没有什么事情可以做，我加入了他们并且赢了五局，之后我找了个机会带着我赢的钱退出了游戏。尽管天色看起来不是很好，我还是决定出去走一走。i headed for a shop on the other side of the street. unlike the others，it didnt have a sign shouting its name and business，and instead of the usual impersonal冷淡的 modern lighting，there was an appealing glow inside. strangely nothing was displayed in the window. not put off by this，i went inside.我向前走到了街道另一边的一个小店里。与其他的小店不同，它没有吸引眼球的名字和主要经营的项目，取而代之的是普通的霓虹灯，里面则是吸引人的强光。奇怪的是并没有什么影子映射在窗户上。我并没有因为这个而停住脚步，我走了进去。it took my breath away. i didnt know where to look, where to start. on one wall there hung three hand-stitched american quilts壁毯 that were in such wonderful condition they might have been newly-made. i came across tin toys and antique furniture, and on the wall in front of me, a 1957 stratocaster guitar, also in excellent condition. a card pushed between the strings said $50. i ran my hand along a long shelf of records, reading their titles. and there was more.我屏住呼吸，不知道看哪里也不知道从哪里开始看。一面墙上挂着三个手工缝制的美国壁毯，十分美丽，可能是新做的。我穿过易拉罐和散落的小玩意儿还有古董家具，在我面前的一面墙上挂着一个崭新的1957年的straocaster吉他。一张五十美元的卡插在琴弦上。我的手抚摸着放唱片的架子，读着标题。这里还有很多的“can i help you？” she startled me. i hadnt even seen the woman behind the counter come in. the way she looked at me, so directly and with such power. it was a look of such intensity that for a moment i felt as if i were wrapped in some kind of magnetic or electrical field. i found it hard to take and almost turned away. but though it was uncomfortable. i was fascinated by the experience of her looking straight into me, and by the feeling that i was neither a stranger, nor strange, to her.“我可以帮助你吗?”她吓了我一跳。我没有看见在柜台后面的女人。她看我的方式如此居高临下，这一时让我很紧张像是被一种磁场或是电场紧紧包裹住。很难避开那个眼神。但是尽管很不舒服，我还是觉得那种被直视的感觉很美妙，那种感觉对我来说不陌生，对她来说也不陌生。besides amusement her expression showed sympathy. it was impossible to tell her age；she reminded me faintly of my grandmother because, although her eyes were friendly, i could see that she was not a woman to fall out with. i spoke at last. i was just looking really, i said, though secretly wondering how much of the stuff i could cram into the bus.除了愉悦以外她的神情还流露出慈爱和怜悯。我猜不出她的年龄。尽管她的眼神充满了友善，她使我想起了我的祖母。我能感觉到她是一个不喜欢与人争吵的人。最后我开口说话，“我真的只是看看”，私下里却在好奇有多少东西能够塞进汽车。the woman turned away and went at once towards a back room, indicating that i should follow her. but it in no way lived up to the first room. the light made me feel peculiar, too. it came from an oil lamp that was hung from the centre of the ceiling and created huge shadows over everything. there were no rare electric guitars, no old necklaces, no hand-painted boxes with delicate flowers. it was also obvious that it must have taken years, decades, to collect so much rubbish, so many old documents arid papers.她转身离开到后面的屋子，示意我应该跟随其后，但这并非是第一个房间，房间的灯光也让我感觉很特别，灯光来自天花板上的油灯，使一切都笼罩在巨大的阴影之下。这里没有罕见的电吉他，没有古老的项链，没有鲜花装饰的手绘盒子。很明显它是陈旧的用来存放垃圾和那些平淡无奇的旧文献的。i noticed some old books, whose gold lettering had faded, making their titles impossible to read. they look interesting, i said, with some hesitation. to be able to understand that kind of writing you must first have had a similar experience, she said clearly. she noted the confused look on my face, but didnt add anything.我发现了一些旧书，那些金字已经退去使题目很难辨认。“它们看起来很有趣。”我迟疑地说。“要想了解上面所写你必须有相似的经历。”她清楚地说。她察觉到我的脸上充满了疑惑可是却没有再说什么。she reached up for a small book which she handed to me. this is the best book i can give you at the moment, she laughed. “if you use it.” i opened the book to find it full. or rather empty, with blank white pages, but paid her the few dollars she asked for it, becoming embarrassed when i realised the notes were still folded into little paper planes. i put the book in my pocket, thanked her and left.她伸出手拿了一本小书然后递给了我。“这是目前我能够给你的最好的书”，她笑着说道，“如果你要用它”。我打开书发现全部是一片空白，但依然给了她向我要的几美元，当我察觉到美元依然是纸飞机的形状时不免有些尴尬。我把书放到包里，谢过她。练习：1. why did the writer want to leave the hotel?为什么作者想要离开宾馆？a) to enjoy the good weather.b) to have a change of scene. 想换个环境c) to spend all his winnings.d) to get away from the crew.问的莫名奇妙，答案也莫名奇妙。2.what attracted the writer to the shop?什么吸引作者进了商店？a) the lack of a sign or name.b)

everything.房间的灯光也让我感觉和特别，灯光来自天花板上的油灯，使一切都笼罩在巨大的阴影之下。答案与题解：1. b 本题的问题是：为什么作者想要离开宾馆？由本文第一段第一句可以得出答案。在宾馆是十分无聊的，最后一句也写出作者不顾天气不好而想要出去走走，a，c选项错误，d选项未提及。2. d 本题的问题是：什么吸引作者进了商店？由第二段中间“there was an appealing glow inside.” 可以得出答案。a，c选项不切题。d选项未提及。3. a 本题的问题是：作者发现在小店前面存放的物品是怎样的？从第三段对于物品的详细描述可以得出答案。“ on one wall there hung three hand-stitched american quilts that were in such wonderful condition they might have been newly-made. i came across tin toys and antique furniture, and on the wall in front of me, a 1957 stratocaster guitar , also in excellent condition.”4. c 本题的问题是：那个女人看他的方式有什么不同？由第四段最后一句“i was fascinated by the experience of her looking straight into me, and by the feeling that i was neither a stranger, nor strange, to her.”有一种似曾相识的感觉。5.c 本题的问题是：作者不喜欢后屋的原因？从文中的第六段和第七段可以得出结论，他认为没有什么他真正喜欢的东西。“it was also obvious that it must have taken years, decades, to collect so much rubbish, so many old documents arid pape
