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.
Comparing to movie stars or rock stars, video stars probably_________.
选项
A、have more skills
B、work longer hours
C、have to be stronger
D、have fewer audiences
答案
A
解析
推理判断题。定位句提到,与电影明星或摇滚明星不同,这些视频明星独自做大部分的工作。接着具体说明他们负责的事务:策划、制作、扮演、导演、剪辑、编程、推广和营销。由此推断,一般而言,视频明星需要掌握很多技能,故答案为A)。B)“工作时间更长”,文中只提到为了让焦急等待的观众满意,这些事情他们每周至少要做两次,并未比较哪种明星的工作时间更长,故排除;C)“必须更为强壮”,文中没有提到强壮与否这个话题,故排除;D)“观众更少”,文中只提到焦急等待的观众,没有提及数量,故排除。
