When Our Words Collide

“Wanna buy a body?” That was the opening line of more than a few phone calls I got from freelance(自由职业 ) photographers when I was a photo editor at U.S. News. Like many in the mainstream press, I wanted to separate the world of photographers into “them”, who trade in picture of bodies or chase celebrities, and “us”, the serious news people. But after 16 years in that role. I came to wonder whether the two worlds were easily distinguishable.

Working in the reputable world of journalism, I assigned photographers to cover other people’s nightmares. I justified invading moments of grief, under the guise(借口) of the reader's right to know. I didn’t ask photographers to trespass(冒犯) or to stalk(跟踪),but I didn’t have to: I worked with pros(同行) who did what others did: talking their way into situations or shooting from behind police lines to get pictures I was after. And I wasn’t alone.

In the aftermath of a car crash or some other hideous incident when ordinary people are hurt or killed, you rarely see photographers pushing past rescue workers to capture the blood and gore(血雨腥风). But you are likely to see the local newspaper and television photographers on the scene - and fast.

How can we justify our behavior? Journalists are taught to separate doing the job from worrying about the consequence of publishing what they record. Repeatedly, they are reminded of a news-business dictum(格言): leave your conscience in the office. You get the picture of the footage: the decision whether to print or air it comes later. A victim may lie bleeding, unconscious, or dead: your job is to record the image. You put away your emotions and document the scene.

We act this way partly because we know that the pictures can have important meaning. Photographs can change deplorable(凄惨的) situations by mobilizing public outrage or increase public understanding.

However, disastrous events often bring out the worst in photographers and photo editors. In the first minutes and hours after a disaster occurs, photo agencies buy pictures. Often an agency buys a picture from a local newspaper or an amateur photographer and put it up for bid by major magazines. The most keenly sought “exclusives” command tens of thousands of dollars through bidding contests.

Many people believe that journalists need to change the way they do things, and it’s our pictures that annoy people the most. Readers may not believe, as we do, that there is a distinction between sober-minded “us” and sleazy(低级庸俗的) “them”. In too many cases, by our choices of images as well as how we get them, we prove our readers right.

Editors sometimes have to pay a lot of money for exclusive pictures.

A.Right

B.Wrong

C.Not mentioned

     If you were looking for an animal to take the title of "most violent fish in the sea", then the puffer

fish(河豚) would have to be a strong competitor.Not only is it poisonous-though that doesn't stop

people trying to eat it-and able to scare off other creatures in the sea by inflating itself to become much

larger than normal, but also it chews on its own brothers and sisters when it is young.

     Puffers attach their eggs to rocks near the bottom of the sea, often at the mouths of bays.Then the

larvae(幼鱼)move to the wide part of the river once they have grown a little.Having put on more

weight, they head for the sea.It's no childhood for the puffer fish, though, as Shin Oikawa and his

colleagues found when they hatched puffer larvae in the lab and monitored them for two months.They

found the larvae went through three step changes when they reached body weights of 0.002 grams,

0.01g and 0.1g.When a larva went through one of these changes, its behavior also changed.For instance,

once a larva passed the first level it would grow its first teeth and could start attacking the larvae that had

not reached that stage.Similarly, any larva that had reached the 0.01g or 0.1g levels would start attacking

the larvae that hadn't.

     The baby fish had a "relatively small mouth", so rather than swallow their brothers and sisters whole,

they would bite pieces out of them.Despite this limitation, the fish caused plenty of deaths.

Eat one puffer and the poison will paralyze your muscles, including the muscles responsible for breathing

-so death is usually caused for lack of oxygen.Famously, the fish is a delicious dish in Japan, where

highly qualified chefs produce dishes that contain safe levels of the poison.The puffer does not go to the

trouble of producing poison itself.Instead, it hosts bacteria that combine the poison.It obtains these

bacteria from its diet, so the youngest adult fish are not poisonous.

1. The following statements account for the violence of puffers EXCEPT ________.

A. they often prevent people from capturing them

B. they can become larger to frighten enemies away

C. they kill their younger companions after growing older

D. they can poison people who try to eat them

2. We can learn from the second paragraph that the puffer ________.

A. can mostly grow to the weight of 0.1g gram

B. never changes its behavior as it grows

C. often finds safe places to have its next generation

D. begins to grow teeth when it reaches the second level

3. Where does the poison in the puffer's body come from?

A. Its inner organism.

B. The chemicals in the water.

C. The diet it eats.

D. Small fish around it.

4. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ________.

A. the puffer does produce poison all by itself

B. people like eating puffers though they are poisonous

C. people can eat the puffer prepared by themselves

D. fishermen often capture the youngest adult puffers
