  • The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences is still figuring out the next steps after Kevin Hart's abrupt1 departure from the show.

    在凯文·哈特突然退出奥斯卡之后,美国电影艺术与科学学院还在寻找对策。

    According to Variety, the comedian's decision to step down from hosting the Oscars after his old homophobic tweets resurfaced -- instead of apologizing and weathering the storm -- has left the Academy in a tight spot, as there was no contingency2 plan for a situation like this.

    据《综艺》报道,这名喜剧演员过去发布的恐同推文近日再次浮出水面,他没有选择致歉并挺过风暴,而是决定退出奥斯卡主持工作,这让学院陷入窘境,因为他们没有为这种情况制定应急方案。

    As a result, the Academy is exploring a number of options, ranging from opening the show with a stunty group monologue3 to having no host at all.

    因此,学院正在研究以巧妙的集体独白作开场或者索性根本不设主持人等多种方案。
