The next time you are watching a film and you see one of the characters jumping out of a plane, falling off a horse, or being blown through a window – spare a thought for the stunt artist. Lots of people think that stunt artists are just “extras” who play small, unimportant parts in films and television. Nothing could be further from the truth.

A stunt artist must combine the skills of an actor with the physical abilities of a first-class athlete. He or she must be extremely fit, and highly trained in a number of activities like scuba-diving, horse riding, martial arts or parachuting.

It is not easy to get started in a career as a stunt performer. Film and television producers look for experience and proven ability, so it is unlikely that they will take on a complete newcomer. However, because of the nature of their profession, stunt artists tend to retire early. This means that new performers must be employed, or there will be no one to take over when the present generation quits.

Even when a stunt artist becomes well-known, the work is not regular. It may sometimes be necessary to travel to the other side of the world for a job which involves long hours and great physical danger. It is not a glamorous occupation either. Unlike the famous actors for whom they sometimes risk their lives, few stunt artists are recognized in the street by adoring fans.

A. save some minutes for

B. look after

C. give a hand to

D. think about

Question 37. It can be inferred from the first paragraph that stunt artists ______.

A. are really important

B. are not important

C. appear only on TV

D. perform only in films

Question 38. All of the followings are required of a stunt artist EXCEPT ______.

A. having the ability of a physicist

B. having the skills of an actor

C. being highly trained

D. being extremely fit

Question 39. The profession of a stunt artist is described as ______.

A. glamorous

B. regular

C. dangerous

D. recognizable
