(S)=Mr. Smith
(I)=Interviewer
(I): Hello and welcome to our talk show. In the next few minutes we’re going to be seeing what it’s like to live and work as a young professional in the UK. Creative industries play a key role in the UK’s economic growth. It’s a sector which covers activities such as architecture, publishing, film, fashion, music, radio and TV, and software. And it accounts for almost ten percent of the UK economy. Creative industries often attract young people who feel naturally drawn to them, in the hope that they can make their mark, their fortune or both, whilst expressing themselves in their chosen field. That’s the dream but what are the realities? Today, we are pleased that our reporter Mark managed to bring a distinguished young creative professional from the film industry to our talk show. Welcome, Mr. Smith.
(S): Thanks.
(I): Mr. Smith. You are a young professional who works in the UK’s burgeoning creative sector and you won’t be short of opinions. Would you tell us what’s your specific job in the film industry?
(S): OK. I’m a film and video editor.
(I): I see now you’ve become rather successful. And would you share with us your experience when you first plunged into this field?
(S): Breaking into the industry is very difficult. And certainly for the first two years that I was trying to break in I had to spend a lot of time working as a carpenter. Or doing whatever I could, painting and decorating, to get by, whilst you are pursuing contacts really. But then when you get more and more established, you get more and more contacts and at the same time you got to perform better. Afterward, it gets much easier.
(I): And do you have to work long hours?
(S): Fourteen, fifteen, sixteen hours per day, it’s not unusual. There are limits set within the law, but of course everyone does usually do whatever’s required to get the material in the can.
(I): What about the social side of things? Do you go out much? Do you have time to go out much?
(S): In terms of meeting people it’s a bit complicated. I often work on my own, so I’m effectively directing myself doing camera work and then I’ll go edit, and then I’ll be totally absorbed in editing. To some extent, I’m completely on my own for days at a time working on a project. On other projects which are much more collaborative, you meet an awful lot of people, and obviously you’ve got a lot in common and with some of them I’ve developed really very good relationships that could be called friendships. So yeah, socially it can be great.
(I): You have a great social life with the people that you work with but organizing social life outside of that, if you’re working seventy-two-hour weeks, can be pretty rough. Do you think so?
(S): Yeah. The flip-side of the coin is that if you’re not working at all, you’ve got all the time in the world. But remember that people who work in other industries don’t really understand your stop-start lifestyle. So it can take extra effort to meet up with people.
This is the end of Part One of the interview. Questions 1 to 5 are based on what you have just heard.
Question One Which is not mentioned as an activity in creative industries?
Question Two Who are often attracted by creative industries in the UK?
Question Three Why did Mr. Smith, a film and video editor, once work as a carpenter?
Question Four Why does Mr. Smith have to work 14 to 16 hours every day?
Question Five What is said about Mr. Smith’s social life?
选项
A、Because it is set in the law.
B、Because he is determined to make a big fortune.
C、Because he has to make the film ready to be released on schedule.
D、Because he wants to establish more contacts and become more successful.
答案
C
解析
推断题。史密斯先生提到:Fourteen,fifteen,sixteen hours per day, it’s not unusual.There are limits set within the law, but of course everyone does usually do whatever’s required to get the material in the can.可见尽管有法律规定的工作时限,但他还是经常加班加点,因为从事影片摄制的每位工作人员都会竭尽全力保证影片如期杀青。in the can,指的是电影已杀青(准备上映)的。因此答案为C。
