The speaker feels that many photographs are more actual than paintings because
I cannot say that I like photographs better than paintings, for I like them both. Each says something different to me.
A photograph brings me face to face with an actual event and real people. A painting can never do that. The people in a painting most often come from the artist’s imagination. The photographer, however, can neither add nor take away from what is in front of the camera. You may have seen paintings of battle scenes. Many are very dramatic. But more powerful—at least to me—are the war photographs of soldiers in action or lying wounded or dead on the battlefield. A number of very haunting pictures were taken during the American Civil War by a photographer named Mathew Brady. While the painter imagined the battle in his mind and then painted it in a studio, Brady was there in the field. Because of this, many of his photographs create an effect that paintings do not. The young soldiers lying dead in Brady’s photographs had actually lived. The photographer had to be there on the battlefield to take those pictures.
Thus, to me, photographs are better because of this one-to-one relationship with reality that is not possible in paintings.
选项
A、To describe the advantages of Mathew Brady’s photographs.
B、To tell the writer’s opinions about photographs and paintings.
C、To persuade you to like photographs more than paintings.
D、To explain why photographs and paintings are alike.
答案
B
解析
短文开头提到:“我不能说我喜欢照片比手绘画多一点,因为这两样我都喜欢。每一样对我来说都有不同之处。”由此可排除A、C。接下来,作者分别介绍了拍照和手绘画的不同想法,据此可排除D。故选B。
