问题                 The Photographer of the Blind Man
    Blind photography: the very concept sounds odd. But a striking exhibition of photographs in California, argues that it stems from the core of contemporary art. The show "Sight Unseen", at the California Museum of Photography until Aug. 29, features everything: underwater scenes, portraits, landscapes, abstracts, and everything else you might expect from a "sighted" photographer.
    How do the blind take their photographs? Some rely on assistants to set up and then describe the shots, and others just point and shoot in the right place. "Just like any good artists," says McCulloh, "they have their unique ways of operating."
    One participating photographer is Pete Eckert, an artist with multiple degrees in design and sculpture who only turned to photography after losing his vision in the mid-1950s. He opens the shutter on his camera and then uses flashlights, lasers, lights, and candles to paint his scene on film. Kurt Weston’s dark and depressing images are also a star of the show. A former fashion photographer in Chicago, Weston lost his vision due to AIDS in 1996, and focuses on images of decay and disability.
    What do gallery-goers say? "I was very impressed by it. The technique and experience was amazingly diverse," says John Hesketh, a printmaker in Anaheim. "You never have a sense of feeling sorry for these people because they’ve worked very hard to prove their value."
    Beyond the praise, however, the exhibition also makes a great example for disabled people everywhere. That point was explained in early May during a panel discussion on the TV show. At the very end of the talk, one attendee summed it up: " This exhibition is extraordinary and revolutionary for many reasons. I think that by being an artist with a disability, you are continuing the work of those people who fought for basic civil rights to gain access and to have a voice. In that way, it’s so wonderful, that your photographs say it all. "
What’s people’s reaction towards this blind photography show?
选项 A、They admire the blind photographers’ hard work.
B、They think some have good techniques while others not.
C、Different people have different feelings towards the show.
D、They have a feeling of sorry towards those blind photographers.
答案A
解析 事实细节题。由题干中的people’s reaction定位到第四段可知，去观看展览的人对展览的评价很高，说能够从展出的作品出看出盲人摄影师“努力地去证明他们的价值”。因此[A]“他们佩服盲人摄影师的努力”为正确答案。本段第二句说：技术和经验丰富多样，令人震惊。并不是说他们的技术水平不一样，因此排除[B]；文章只给出了一位参观者的评价，可以推测这位参观者的感受是具有代表性的，但是，文章没有说[C]“参观者们的感受不同"，故排除；本段第三句明确说：你不会为他们感到遗憾，因此排除[D]。
