新东方英语词汇指导：演员“替身”怎么说？

英语自学网

　　请看《中国日报》先前的一篇相关报道：The latest publicity feast in director Feng Xiaogang's not-yet-completed "The Banquet" is the issue of Zhang Ziyi's nude scenes in the blockbuster film. Now a woman who says she was Zhang'sstand-inwants credit where credit is due.
　　Actress Shao Xiaoshan said she substituted for Zhang in some bathing and sex scenes. However, she is not listed in the credits.
　　如果仔细阅读报道中的两段文字，即使不熟知 “stand-in” ，您也会在随即出现的 “substitute” 中猜出它的大致意思“替身，代替”。Stand-in（替身）源于动词词组“stand in for”（暂时代替某人），例如：I'm standing in for the regular man while he's on holiday.（那位正式职员休假了，由我暂时顶替他的职位。）
　　此外，stuntman（特技表演者）也可做“替身”，不过更强调“身怀绝技、有某种特异功能”的替身演员。
