📖 題組:
A stunt person is a man or a woman who performs dangerous acts, usually in the television or movie industry. In this line of work, the person is paid to do daring actions that are deemed too __21__ for the regular actor to perform, including jumping from heights, crashing cars, or fighting with weapons. Stunt work emerged out of __22__ over time. In the early days of the film industry, actors themselves shot acrobatic acts and dangerous scenes, until they began to get injured. There were, however, no __23__ crew members to perform impressive stunts at that time. If something dangerous needed to be done for a scene, the producers would hire anyone crazy or desperate enough to do it. These people were not trained to perform stunts, so they often __24__ things for the first time during the actual shooting. They had to learn from their own mistakes, which __25__ some their lives, and almost all suffered light or severe injuries. Beginning around 1910, audiences developed a taste for serial action movies, which __26__ the use of dedicated stunt people to perform in dangerous scenes. Such demand increased with the rise of western movies, and many cowboys with masterful skills on horseback found a new __27__ as a stunt person. Tom Mix and Yakima Canutt were among the most famous. The 1960s and ’70s __28__ the development of most modern stunt technology, like air rams and bullet squibs. That technology has continued to evolve into the present. Today, CGI (computer generated imagery) is widely used in filmmaking, and it is now __29__ to create very lifelike scenes without using real stunt people.

思路引導 VIP

請觀察空格前後的句型「too ... for the regular actor to perform」,這裡需要填入什麼詞性?再回頭看看前一句提到的「dangerous acts」以及後文列舉的撞車、跳高等動作,作者想表達這些行為對一般演員來說具備什麼特質呢?

語意線索與句型搭配

太棒了,你的語感與句型結構掌握得非常精準!這題的空格位於「too + 形容詞 + for sb. to V(太……以致於某人無法……)」的經典句型中,因此空格必然需要一個形容詞。 再從前後文脈絡來看,前句提到特技演員的工作是「dangerous acts(危險動作)」與「daring actions(大膽冒險的行動)」,後方更舉例跳樓、撞車與持械打鬥等場景。既然是一般演員難以承擔的動作,填入 (C) risky(危險的、冒險的) 完全契合文意。
