You would like to take good photographs of real-life situations, but you have few ideas for pictures. Just look around you; the everyday world is full of scenes being played by an ever-changing group of actions. The realistic approach to photograph has been perfected in the past by such masters as Henri Cartier-Bresson and Bill Brandt. But while you can learn a great deal from looking at the work of others, any success you can hope to achieve in this field has to come from developing an individual approach.The main requirement for any photographer has little to do with technical matters. You must develop an appreciation of the world around you and the people who live in it, and you should learn to notice when a situation may develop to a point where you will be able to take a good picture.

Others who are not so aware will be struggling with camera cases and lens caps.Not every shot is going to be a winner.

Awareness Description Inspiration Exaggeration None 76. Which of the following is NOT true about the passage? Young people today are confronted by many new choices and where to live is one of the most important of them. Just a couple of generations ago, the majority of people spent their entire lives in the town in which they were born. There are indisputable advantages to that choice. Family connections tend to remain close. Friendships grow and flourish over time. One’s sense of identity is strongly rooted in familiar places, and the memories of childhood remain comfortably present as people grow to maturity. Like trees that are strongly rooted in one place, some people develop and become successful. The continuity of the sun rising over the same mountain every morning or doing one’s shopping at the same neighborhood grocery store year after year creates a sense of belonging.Nowadays, this kind of stability has not only become harder to achieve, but its worth has also been questioned. Career, education, even a strong desire for adventure all work together to motivate many people to get out and experience a larger, livelier world. Many young adults can think of no worse fate than to be permanently “stuck” in the town in which they grew up. They value the life lessons that come from change and from altogether new experience. They are curious about the next challenge. And they follow these visions of a “more exciting” life with satisfaction. As you think ahead to the life choices you will be facing in a few short years, consider which of these two lifestyles seems most appealing to you today. People are in search of an exciting life. Younger people look for new places. Everyone feels the need for a change. People grow roots in their hometown. None 77. Why do some people accept the challenge of experiencing more of the world?
