One way to 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，主角舉行婚禮時在現(xiàn)場的客人，是“壞人”被警察追捕的時候過馬路的行人。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。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.當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。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.對群眾演員來說，主要的要求就是要有耐心等待?？赡芨嬷阍绯课辶c鐘工作，但你要一直等導(dǎo)演準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。實際上，一遍又一遍地重復(fù)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。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10%給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.究竟哪些人會想當群眾演員呢？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)里的人大都對群眾演員和正式演員有嚴格的區(qū)分，通常不會考慮讓群眾演員出演大角色。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？為什么在這里？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。注釋：1Extras dont normally speak any lines, but they help make the scenes look real：雖然群眾演員通常沒有臺詞，但他們的存在使整個場景更加逼真。2You could be on the set for hours，sometimes waiting outdoors in very hot or cold weather：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。on the set：在拍攝現(xiàn)場。3Most of them have flexible schedules, which allow them to be available：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。練習：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 do a scene that is only a few minutes long in the movie.B)They always do the same scene many times.C)The actors are interested in talking to them.D)The action moves very quickly.答案在第2段3Why do most 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無聊的；令人厭煩的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答案與題解：1B本文的第三段詳細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，但并沒有提是否可以喝飲料，所以D可以排除；A中的only 詞太籠統(tǒng)，所以A不對；從第四段可以看出，從群眾演員到演員的轉(zhuǎn)型是相當困難的，所以C也不對。2A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。3C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。4C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：You 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。5A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。第三十六篇 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。當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?？赡芨嬷阍绯课辶c鐘工作，但你要一直等導(dǎo)演準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。實際上，一遍又一遍地重復(fù)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。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10%給向你提供工作的中介。究竟哪些人會想當群眾演員呢？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)里的人大都對群眾演員和正式演員有嚴格的區(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？為什么在這里？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。第三十六篇 Life as a Movie ExtraOrdinary people have always been attracted to the world of movies and movie stars.

The road crew一組工作人員 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 機會 to escape逃 with my profit利潤. Despite the evil-looking clouds，I had to get out for a while.在賓館里閑待一個下午是很無聊的。巡回樂團道具管理組的成員在用美元玩兒游戲，把紙幣折成紙飛機的形狀然后看誰飛得最遠。因為沒有什么事情可以做，我加入了他們并且贏了五局，之后我找了個機會帶著我贏的錢退出了游戲。盡管天色看起來不是很好，我還是決定出去走一走。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邊的一個小店里。與其他的小店不同，它沒有吸引眼球的名字和主要經(jīng)營的項目，取而代之的是普通的霓虹燈，里面則是吸引人的強光。奇怪的是并沒有什么影子映射在窗戶上。我并沒有因為這個而停住腳步，我走了進去。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從哪里開始看。一面墻上掛著三個手工縫制的美國壁毯，十分美麗，可能是新做的。我穿過易拉罐和散落的小玩意兒還有古董家具，在我面前的一面墻上掛著一個嶄新的1957年的Straocaster吉他。一張五十美元的卡插在琴弦上。我的手撫摸著放唱片的架子，讀著標題。這里還有很多的“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.“我可以幫助你嗎?”她嚇了我一跳。我沒有看見在柜臺后面的女人。她看我的方式如此居高臨下，這一時讓我很緊張像是被一種磁場或是電場緊緊包裹住。很難避開那個眼神。但是盡管很不舒服，我還是覺得那種被直視的感覺很美妙，那種感覺對我來說不陌生，對她來說也不陌生。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.除了愉悅以外她的神情還流露出慈愛和憐憫。我猜不出她的年齡。盡管她的眼神充滿了友善，她使我想起了我的祖母。我能感覺到她是一個不喜歡與人爭吵的人。最后我開口說話，“我真的只是看看”，私下里卻在好奇有多少東西能夠塞進汽車。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.她轉(zhuǎn)身離開到后面的屋子，示意我應(yīng)該跟隨其后，但這并非是第一個房間，房間的燈光也讓我感覺很特別，燈光來自天花板上的油燈，使一切都籠罩在巨大的陰影之下。這里沒有罕見的電吉他，沒有古老的項鏈，沒有鮮花裝飾的手繪盒子。很明顯它是陳舊的用來存放垃圾和那些平淡無奇的舊文獻的。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.我發(fā)現(xiàn)了一些舊書，那些金字已經(jīng)退去使題目很難辨認?！八鼈兛雌饋砗苡腥ぁ！蔽疫t疑地說?！耙肓私馍厦嫠鶎懩惚仨氂邢嗨频慕?jīng)歷?！彼宄卣f。她察覺到我的臉上充滿了疑惑可是卻沒有再說什么。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書然后遞給了我?！斑@是目前我能夠給你的最好的書”，她笑著說道，“如果你要用它”。我打開書發(fā)現(xiàn)全部是一片空白，但依然給了她向我要的幾美元，當我察覺到美元依然是紙飛機的形狀時不免有些尷尬。我把書放到包里，謝過她。練習：1.
