Paparazzi
The term "paparazzi" comes from a character called Paparazzo in the film, La Dolce Vita, who rode around on a motorbike taking photographs of the rich and famous. Modern day paparazzi take photographs of famous people, hoping to get them in an unflattering(不讨好的)or compromising(有伤风化的)pose. The photograph is then sold for an enormous sum of money, sometimes close to a million dollars, to the press.
Some people say that celebrities are public property and that this invasion of privacy is to be expected—"that’s show business", they say. I think that this is true up to a point, but celebrities are being followed, chased, annoyed and spied on in their own homes. That’s not show business. That’s criminal.
Unnecessary risks
Tom Cruise has been pursued at high speed through the tunnel in Paris where Princess Diana was killed.
When Madonna was promoting Evita in Rome, she had to drive away at 130 kph with her baby in the car because she was being chased. The paparazzi didn’t even give her time to strap the baby into the car.
Invasion of privacy
Alec Baldwin gave a paparazzo a black eye when he filmed him and his wife, Kim Basinger, returning to their Hollywood home with their new baby. Baldwin was arrested and charged with assault, but he was soon set free.
When Princess Diana’s father died, a paparazzo was waiting outside her hotel—she tearfully begged him to leave her alone, but the pictures were printed in the national newspapers the next day.
Annoy
The paparazzi go out of their way to make people angry so that they can get a better picture. The American actor George Clooney was walking down the street with his girlfriend when a paparazzo shouted, "Who’s the fat girl?" The picture of Clooney’s angry face was splashed all over the newspapers the next day. However, the actor got his revenge on the paparazzi when one of the photographers was hiding in his garden and his girlfriend at home—the photographer was chased away by Clooney’s pet Vietnamese pot—bellied pig.
The paparazzi are out of control. Some papers have recognized what is happening and have refused to buy pictures when it’s obvious that a person’s privacy has been invaded. Other papers must follow their example.
Read the passage, and then tell whether the following statements are true(T)or false(F). [br] Paparazzi’s behaviors add many unnecessary dangers, invade others’ privacy and annoy people.( )
选项
A、TRUE
B、FALSE
答案
A
解析
题干中“add many unnecessary dangers”,“invade others’privacy”,“annoy people”分别对应文中三个标题“Unnecessary risks”,“Invasion of privacy”,“Annoy”,因此该题关于狗仔队行为所带来负面影响的描述正确。
