What was Jenny fond of doing as a child?
In this section, you will hear five short news items. After each item, which will be read only once, there will he a fifteen-second pause. During the pause, read the question and the four choices marked A , B, C and D, and decide which is the best answer. Then mark the corresponding letter on the answer sheet with a single line through the centre.
(F)I’m Jenny Laveme. As a wildlife photographer, I have been passionate about wildlife since I was a child. One of my earliest memories is of getting keen on fishing in a stream near our house, and while I was standing there waiting for the fish to bite, I’d start noticing all the wildlife. I’d rush home and tell my parents all about the animals and birds I’d seen. Later on I learnt a lot from my uncle, who’s very knowledgeable about birds, and I watched every wildlife series there was on TV. Then I bought my first camera, and a photographer was born!
I’m completely self-taught, as I don’t believe you can learn a skill by sitting in a classroom. That said, friends and colleagues say you get a lot out of attending courses—it isn’t just my experience , so I wouldn’t recommend it. Of course, once you’ve learnt the basics, it might be fun to be a member of a photographic club.
I’m busy all the time now that I’m better known, with hardly a break sometimes, not something I need or want to do, but I’ve got into the routine of it. I have to get the most out of each day, so I often find myself making notes for articles, or editing images, while waiting in a hide for a bird to appear. I try to be patient, but luckily there’s nobody to hear if I start muttering to myself.
I’ve been working as a wildlife photographer for ten years now and have a pretty strong reputation. And I put in a lot of hours, but again, that’s something we all have to do. I think what I’m known for is being able to come up with exceptional images in adverse conditions.
I’ve been fortunate enough to win a couple of international competitions. Something I haven’t done, which would be fun, is to travel round the country showing a selection of my images at local art galleries and libraries.
选项
A、Taking photos.
B、Listening to her uncle’s stories.
C、Fishing in a nearby stream.
D、Watching various TV programmes.
答案
C
解析
新闻开头部分Jenny指出“One of my earliest memories is of getting keen on fishing in astream near our house”,即她小时候喜欢在家附近的小溪旁钓鱼。因此答案选C。
