单选题It is known to us that English is not as old as Chinese, but it is widely used by most people all over the world. English speakers enjoy creating new words. In fact, a majority of words are traceable and each of them may have an interesting story.
However, no one will really care where a word comes from because it makes little difference in using them in our daily life. Did you ever feel confused about why hamburgers are called hamburgers, especially when they are not made with ham?
About a hundred years ago, some men went to America from Europe, coming from a big city in Germany called Hamburg. They didn"t know how to use English properly. Having seen them eating round pieces of beef, the American asked what it was. The Germans didn"t understand the questions exactly, so they answered, "We come from Hamburg." One of the Americans was an owner of a restaurant and got an idea. He cooked some round pieces of bread with beef and began selling them. Such bread came to be called "hamburgers". Today, hamburgers are welcomed by lots of people coming from different nationalities.

Hollywood's true heroes are losing their jobs. Stunt
people (替身演员) who entertained cinema-goers by falling for the sky, Swimming with
sharks and driving fast cars have been replaced by technology. After generations
of street fights, high falls, and setting fire to themselves, these people have
had nearly all their work replaced by computers. The most dangerous and costly
stunts can now be achieved by mixing computer picture with live
action. In the mid-1990s there were 12,000 registered stunt
people, but more than half of them 'had difficulty finding work. Sometimes, six
or seven teams would be working on a film. Then, after a few days, the producers
would come in and say, "You can go home." The reason was simple:
cost. Computer technology made it possible to create stunts which would either
be too expensive or too dangerous to attempt. With the rise of digital
technology (数字技术), insurance companies became more reluctant to cover real
stunts. "If they know it can be done safely with visual effects, the companies
will not insure real stunts," said a stunt person. Many in their
industry believe stunt people should develop expertise in the new technology,
acting as advisers on the virtual stunts. Some, however, think that stunt people
can survive in their traditional careers. They believe that audiences won't
accept stunts produced by computers for too
long.
