Special Effects in Movies Have you ever seen a movie in which a building was burned down or a bridge was destroyed? Have you seen films in which a train crashed or a ship sank into the ocean? If so, you may have wondered how these things could happen without harming the people in the film. The man who knows the answer is the “special-effects” man. He has one of the most important jobs in the film industry. (36)_______________. And he may also be asked to create a special effect which is much less exciting, though just as important to the success of the film. In a scene for one movie there was a big glass box filled with water in which small fish were swimming. The director of the movie wanted the fish to stop swimming suddenly while they seemed to stare at an actor. Then the director wanted the fish to stop staring and swim away. (37)_______________. It was quite a problem. The special-effects man thought about this problem for a long time. (38)_______________. First he used electricity to he fish bowl, causing the fish to be completely still. Then he rapidly reduced the amount of electricity, allowing the fish to swim away. Thus he got the humorous effect that the director wanted. When explosives are used, as in battlefield scenes, “special-effects” men usually receive extra pay. For a large battlefield scene the “special-effects” man talks with the director and examines the area. (39)_______________. He finally places his “explosives”. This requires special training, skill, and experience. (40)_______________. It helps explain why so many movies are very expensive to make. A. Then occurred an idea for controlling the fish with a harmless use of electricity. B. But fish can’t be ordered to do anything. C. Most special effects are done by smaller special effects shops. D. He may be ordered to create a flood or to make a battlefield explode. E. Then he plans the effects several days before the filming is to begin. F. It adds a great deal to the expense of producing the film. 请填入正确答案相应的大写字母! 36. __________
