    When Our Words Collide
    "Wanna buy a body?"That was the opening line of more than a few phone calls I got from freelance (自由职业)photographers when I was a photo editor at U.S.News.Like many in the mainstream press, I wanted to separate the world of photographers into "them",who trade in pictures of bodies or chase celebrities,and"us",the serious news people.But after 16 years in that role,I came to wonder whether the two worlds were easily distinguishable.
    Working in the reputable world of journalism,I assigned photographers to cover other people'5 nightmares.I justified invading moments of grief, under the guise(借口)of the reader' s right to know.I didn't ask photographers to trespass(冒犯)or to stalk(跟踪),but I didn't have to.I worked with pros (同行)who did what others did, talking their way into situations or shooting from behind police lines to get pictures I was after.And I wasn't alone.
    In the aftermath of a car crash or some other hideous incident when ordinary people are hurt or killed, you rarely see photographers pushing past rescue workers to capture the blood and gore(血腥场面).But you are likely to see local newspaper and television photographers on the scene-and fast.
    How can we justify our behavior?Journalists are taught to separate doing the job from worrying about the consequence of publishing what they record.Repeatedly,they are reminded of a news-business dictum (格言):leave your conscience in the office.You get the picture of the footage ; the decision whether to print or air it comes later.A victim may lie bleeding,unconscious,or dead;your job is to record the image.You put away your emotions and document the scene.
    Te act this way partly because we know that the pictures can have important meaning.Photographs can change deplorable(凄惨的)situations by mobilizing public outrage or increase public understanding.
    However,disastrous events often bring out the worst in photographers and photo editors.In the first minutes and hours after a disaster occurs,photo agencies buy pictures.Often an agency buys a picture from a local newspaper or an amateur photographer arid put it up for bid by major magazines.The most keenly sought"exclusives"command tens of thousands of dollars through bidding contests.
    Many people believe that journalists need to change the way they do things,and it's our pictures that annoy people the most.Readers may not believe,as we do,that there is a distinction between sober-minded"us" and sleazy(低级庸俗的)"them".In too many cases, by our choices of images as well as how we get them,we prove our readers right.

    The writer never got an offer for a photograph of a dead person.
    A:Right
    B:Wrong
    C:Not mentioned

    答案:C
    解析:
    由文章第一段第一、二句话“'Wanna buy a body?' That was the opening line of more than a few phone calls I got from freelance photographers when I was a photo editor at LI.S.News." 可知,当作者还是一名照片编辑时,他接到过-些自由职业摄影师的电话,开头就问是否需要-些照片,但是并未提及他是否接到过一张已过世的人的照片。故选C。
    由文章第一段第二句话后半句“when I was a photo editor at U.S.News”和第-段最后-句前半句话“But after 16 years in that role...”可知,作者曾经是一名照片编辑,而不是摄影师。故选B。
    由文章第二段第二句话“I justified invading moments of grief, under the guise(借口)of the reader' s right to know.”可知,作者以读者需要了解真相为借口,把侵犯别人的梦魔看作是合理的。又由本段第三句话“I didn't ask photographers to trespass(冒犯)or to stalk(跟踪), but I didn't have to.”可知,作者没有要求摄影师去冒犯或者跟踪别人。这里的guise(借口)、 trespass(冒犯)和stalk(跟踪)都有贬义的意思,由此可看出作者其实并不认为拍摄别人的梦魔是情有可原的。故选B。
    文章第三段提到,当人们因为发生汽车碰撞或者其他-些丑陋的事故而受伤或者死亡时,我们很少会看到摄影师们推开正在实施抢救的人而去抓拍这些血腥场面。但是,我们能看到当地报纸和电视台的摄影师很快出现在现场。文中并没有提到在事故现场,新闻摄影师常常会对正在实施抢救的人们造成困扰。故选C。
    由文章第四段第二句话“Journalists are taught to separate doing the job from worrying about the consequence of publishing what they record.”可知,记者们在工作时没有考虑他们的工作会造成什么样的后果,他们被教导工作时要把良知放在办公室,在现场只管拍照。也就是说他们没有想过他们所做的事是否正确。故选A。
    由文章第六段第二句话“in the first minutes and hours alter a disaster occurs , photo agencies buy pictures.”和最后-句话“The most keenly sought‘exclusives' command tens of thousands of dollars through bidding contests.”可知,灾难发生后,照片代理机构会在第一时间购买照片,并且为了享有对这些照片的专有权,甚至不惜花费成千上万美元。这里说的是照片代理机构,而不是照片编辑人员。故选B。
    由文章最后一段第一句话“Many people believe that journalists need to change the way they do things, and it' s our pictures that annoy people the most.”可知,很多人觉得记者应该改变他们的工作方式,正是我们的照片给人们造成了严重困扰。故选A。

    Task II (20 marks)  Write an essay of no less than 160 words in which you discuss the moral of the following passage and express your personal views on the subject. Now write the letter on the answer sheet.  Courage is the greatest of all virtues, because if you don’t have courage, you will not have an opportunity to use any of the others.—Samuel Johnson

    正确答案:
    No matter how fast-learning a child is, he can’t walk without the courage to leave his mother’s embrace; no matter how much talent a singer is endowed with, nobody knows until he marches on the stage and opens his mouth; no matter how ambitious a soldier can be, he is never a general if he dares not take up the arms. So courage is the first step to success. As an old Chinese saying goes: It is the first step that costs troublesome, we may conclude what a valuable treasure courage is. Besides giving you a chance to success, when life gets you down and when it seems that your world is at an end, courage is the only thing that you are left with, that can’t be deprived by anyone and that you can take and make the next step. Because this is not a grant from someone else, instead, it stems from deep within the heart and flushes away the paralysis created by fear.
