Think today’s kids want to be doctors or lawyers? No. YouTube stardom (明星) is the number one dream career for young people today, at least according to a widely publicized survey by a British newspaper.
The appeal is obvious: Some 20-somethings are making millions by playing video games or sharing beauty tips online. But the pressure of having to endlessly produce original content that makes them look accessible, transparent, and authentic has proven too much for some people, including Essena O’Neill. The former social media figure went public in her posts about experiencing symptoms of depression and anxiety from living an overexposed life.
Living professionally online has also been a challenge for 24-year-old Lauren Riihimaki. Six million people follow her YouTube channel, LaurDIY, which covers topics ranging from home decorating to her adoption of a lovely little dog.
Most of these stars are between the ages of 20 and 26. Unlike movie stars or rock stars, these videostars do most of their work themselves. They’re responsible for everything from developing an idea, to physically producing it, to starring in it, to directing it, to editing it, to programming it, to promoting and marketing. And to keep their hungry audiences satisfied, they should be doing all that at least twice a week.
That’s why Lauren Riihimaki came close not just to burning out, but breaking down. She has overcome and pushed the boundaries of her anxiety so insanely since she started YouTube. She sees a psychologist and she’s on medication (药物治疗). And that’s been working for her.
Dana Julian, a Los Angeles psychologist, says one of the hardest things about managing life as a YouTube star is making a career out of something that can be an addiction. Anyone with a Facebook, Twitter or Instagram account is familiar with the rush to show off. But now, imagine it magnified (放大) by millions of clicks, likes and followers.
For YouTube stars, when they’re clearly overwhelmed, they should be told to get offline for a while. Stop being a brand. Take some time, just to be a person again.
Why is YouTube stardom the number one dream career for young people?
选项
A、They prefer to share their beauty secrets online.
B、They consider it the best way to make a living.
C、They are attracted by the way to make a fortune.
D、They wish to become well-known and wealthy.
答案
C
解析
事实细节题。由定位句可知,YouTube明星是当今年轻人的头号梦想职业。接着,第二段首句指明原因,其吸引力是显而易见的:一些20多岁的人正通过在线玩电子游戏或分享美容秘诀赚取数百万。由此可知,年轻人受到这种赚钱方式的吸引,因此想成为YouTube明星,故答案为C)。A)“他们喜欢在线分享美容秘诀”,第二段第一句中提到“分享美容秘诀”,但这只是一种赚钱的方式,并不是原因,故排除;B)“他们认为这是最好的谋生方式”,此处为绝对表达,故排除;D)“他们想出名并致富”,文中只提到赚取数百万,并没有提到出名的问题,故排除。
