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.
According to Dana Julian, young people dream to be video stars because of_________.
选项
A、interest
B、vanity
C、enlightenment
D、curiosity
答案
B
解析
推理判断题。定位段提到,达娜.朱利安表示,作为YouTube明星,生活中最难处理的事情之一就是让某种可能成瘾的事情成为自己的职业;接着指出,任何拥有Facebook,Twitter或Instagram账号的人都很熟悉炫耀的冲动;而正是数以百万计的点击率、点赞和粉丝将这种冲动放大了。由此推断,许多年轻人热衷成为视频明星是出于虚荣心,故答案为B)。A)“兴趣”,本项符合常识,但文中没有提及兴趣问题,故排除;C)“启发”,文中并未提到视频明星受到什么启发,故排除;D)“好奇心”,文中并没有提到相关内容,故排除。
