17、he Answer Sheet.阅读下面短文，从每题所给的4个选项A、B、C、D中选出最佳选项。将答案写在答题卷上。Passage 1Would you set yourself on fire for 75 a day?1. A stuntperson is a man or woman who does all the hair-raisingly dangerous bits of acting work in films or on TV. This can be anything from a relatively simple fall into a swimming pool,

18、to tripping off the top of a sky-scraper building. It sounds like a crazy profession that only the crazy would attempt, but its actually a job that many people think about though few people actually go through with it.2. Sarah Franzi, 24, is one of Britains 16 stuntwomen (as against 160 men.) Like m

19、any of her colleagues, it was a career shed never seriously considered. From when I was young Id trained to be a dancer, and for seven years after school, I was rarely out of work. A dancers life is pretty short, though, and it was my father who suggested I should think about stunt work after Id giv

20、en up dancing. I did think about it for the next two years then decided to have a go.3. Sarah discovered that she could only be a stuntwoman if she was accepted onto the Stunt Register. To do that, you have to be between 18 30 years old, and be a full member of Equity, the actors union. You also hav

21、e to obtain the right qualifications.4. For six months, I worked really hard, every day. To become qualified, I had to learn six different skills, sub-aqua, sky-diving, horse-riding etc. stuff like that to a high standard of training.5. A lot of time during my training I was thinking what has this g

22、ot to do with being a stuntwoman? Like when I had to do a five hour written examination on horse and stable management but you know you have to do it in order to get the qualification.6. Sarah finished all the requirements in just five months it can take as long as three years to qualify and she rec

23、kons it cost her about 4000. You can do it much more cheaply if you can join local clubs and are prepared to wait, but I wanted to get it over with. 7. After five months of training, Sarahs completed application was accepted by the Stunt Committee (the governing body which has the final say as to wh

24、ether you are accepted or not). Two weeks later, she was launching herself off the Great Wall in the film Superman.8. I was very lucky to get work so quickly. I had a small part playing a tourist who fell off the wall after an earthquake, only to be rescued from death by Superman. In reality I fell

25、45 feet (about 14 metres) onto a pile of cardboard boxes. You cant use anything softer than that, because you might bounce back up into the view of the camera. Instead you just have to suffer the discomfort and fall properly.9. Sarah was paid 210 a day for it, and because it was considered dangerous

26、, she got another 200 fee for every extra take. (i.e. every time the shot had to be recorded on film camera.) Thats the unions minimum fee (you have to be a member of the trade union.) For film work you can earn up to 1000 per day.10. This sounds a fortune, but as Sarah explains, The film company is

27、 paying for the risk. If Id broken a bone, that isnt very much money at all when youre out of work for the next few months. And there is a risk involved. Safety procedures are every strict, but theres still a danger. Fortunately, the risks are one part of the job that I really enjoy.11. To do the jo

28、b, you have to be physically fit, and mentally strong you need a lot of courage. As yet, Sarah has received injuries no more severe than bangs and bruises, though she does admit that she was pretty scared on one or two occasions.12. I was set alight for Londons Burning (a TV programme about the Lond

29、on Fire Service). It was a full fire job, which meant that my whole body was set alight. Of course, I was wearing protective clothing. I was on fire for fifteen seconds and towards the end it was terribly hot. The difficulty with that kind of job is that youre never fully in control of the fire, so

30、its easier for something to go wrong.13. Its jobs like that which make people think we must be completely crazy to do this kind of work. But thats not the case at all. There are so many safety procedures, with so much mental concentration involved, that what we are really doing is creating the illusion of danger. If people think How could you do that? You must be mad, then were doing our jobs properly.What does the blue whale feed on?26.Accordin
