In. Visible Moscow is a walking tour imagined. The technology is like any guided walking tour; a pair of headphones and a guide. The difference is that the guide is the fictional character named Sasha. We tourists follow her as she looks to fill her time in Moscow. As she chats to herself, the headphones relay Sasha’s stream of consciousness—available in Russian, English, German and French—directly into the visitors’ ears.
It is surprisingly effective. It’s not hard to imagine that the actress with the red backpack playing Sasha is genuinely pondering which way to turn as we leave the GUM shopping center. She even indulges in some self-reflection on occasion, like asking herself some challenging questions: "Do I like the way I look today?" When she asks herself, "Do I have a plan for the next five years?" a narrator cuts in, suggesting that we answer the question, too.
This is not the only interactive element to the tour. At one spot, we were arranged into a circle and asked to participate in group stretches to some classical music. Indeed we were subject to some puzzled looks from passers-by, but at this point we were all so immersed (沉浸) in the experience that none of us cared.
Sasha several times walks away down the street to various pieces of music, where she awkwardly avoids people in her way.
But these lighter moments do break up Sasha’s internal monologue (独白). The result is a good balance of fact and fiction, and I found some of the details fascinating. We see where Leo Tolstoy went shopping for watches in GUM. The story of how the 16th century Old English Court ended up in what is now Zaryadye Park was also truly interesting. Sound effects brought this information to life: church bells toll in our ears as we walk past the 14th century Church of All Saints, only to be cut off as Sasha recalls that the bell was removed for safety reasons because of its Pisa-like leaning bell-tower.
The walk is between four and five kilometers long, although the two-hour length ensures a leisurely pace and even allows a five-minute complementary finger-buffet (简餐) midway.
The experience as a whole was undeniably engaging and insightful. It is a genuinely fun and original way to explore the city.
What did the author think of the group stretches?
选项
A、Puzzling.
B、Engaging.
C、Annoying.
D、Embarrassing.
答案
B
解析
事实细节题。由第三段可知,在一个地方,我们被安排成一个圈,并被要求在一些古典音乐的伴奏下参加团体伸展运动。我们确实受到一些来自路人不解的表情,但我们都沉浸其中,没有人在意。puzzling意为“令人迷惑的”,是路人的看法;engaging意为“迷人的,有趣的”;annoying意为“讨厌的,恼人的”;embarrassing意为“令人尴尬的”。对于团体伸展运动,作者很沉浸其中,并不感到讨厌和尴尬。故选B。
