Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
To accomplish a three-dimensional or 3D effect in a movie, two steps are necessary. First, the movie needs to be shot a special way. Then, the movie needs to be viewed in a special way. To shoot a 3D movie, it is necessary to use two cameras at the same time. This is different from a regular movie, which is shot with only one camera. The two cameras are placed next to each other. The placement of the cameras imitates how two eyes each see one scene from a different perspective. The same picture is shot by each of the cameras at the same time, but each of the cameras films the scene from a different angle because of the position of the cameras. When you go to the theater to view a 3D, you must wear special glasses to get the three-dimensional effect. [40A] Both pieces of film are projected simultaneously; when the pieces of film are projected at the same time, the special glasses then force each of your two eyes to see the film in a different way. [40B] Your left eye sees the film shot with the left camera, and your right eye sees the film shot with the right camera. [40C] If you try to watch the movie without the special glasses, it will seem like you have double vision. [40D]

A. the way to create a 3D movie B. problems involved in 3D movies
