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. "
How can blind people take photos?
选项 A、They describe what they want to shoot to their assistants.
B、They hold the camera and shoot randomly.
C、They take the photos with the help of others.
D、They have special equipment designed for them.
答案C
解析 事实细节题。由题干中的blind people take photographs定位到第二段。本段第二句说：有些需要助手为他们摆好设备，向他们描述镜头，也就是说，是在助手的帮助下进行拍摄工作。所以[C]为正确答案。本段第二句说有的是通过助手的描述来决定是否拍摄，而不是向助手描述想拍什么。因此排除[A]；本段第二句中说有些摄影师只是找正确的位置进行拍摄，他们还是知道大致的方位，而不是“随便拍’’，排除[B]；文章没有提到专门为盲人设计的照相机，故排除[D]。
