Submit your photos and videos to You Witness News to have them considered for use on Reuters.com, Yahoo!, and the Reuters professional picture service, used by thousands of news organizations worldwide.
When you send images to pics@ reuters.com, please provide the following so that we can review and post them:
·Your full name
·Your email address or phone number
·A brief description of the event you shot with the place and date that it occurred.
The next images shown across the world’s newspapers, television channels, and news sites could be yours.Share your take with the world.
What makes a good news photograph?
As you’re thinking about taking news photographs, think about what makes up a good picture.
Most importantly, it will be of interest to a wide audience.It may describe an event in the news: a train crash, a clash in the streets, crazily happy fans the moment the big game is won.
Uniqueness is eye-catching.A picture that no one else took has much more news value than one taken alongside a rank of other photographers.A good news picture will tell a story without words.It will have context by showing the surrounding scene, or show the emotion on the faces of the people in the picture.
Timeliness is critical.Whatever the content, a news picture can lose its value in a short space of time.News events move quickly, and the shot of a mini tornado you took last week may have been destined for the front page when you took it, but of no interest to a newspaper or a website a week later.
Control is important.Please remember, absolutely no photo is worth bothering others, putting yourself or others in danger, or getting in trouble with the law.
We’re looking forward to seeing your pictures.
64.The following are the features of a good news photograph except that        .
A.it is unique             B.it is timely
C.it respects others’ privacy and the law    D.it can arouse specialists’ interest

A.You Witness News is a popular column of a website.
B.The photos or videos you take are only shared by Yahoo! and Reuters.com.
C.Attach a brief description of yourself when submitting your photos and videos.
D.Any photo or video you take will be accepted by You Witness News.
66.The purpose of the passage is         .
A.to teach you how to take photos
B.to tell people what makes a good news photo
C.to encourage you to share the take
D.to remind people not to disturb others while taking photos

  Good afternoon, and welcome to England. We hope that your visit here will be a pleasant one. Today, I would like to draw your attention to a few of our laws.
  The first one is about drinking. Now, you may not buy alcohol in this country if you are under 18 years of age, nor may your friends buy it for you.
  Secondly, noise. Enjoy yourselves by all means, but please don't make unnecessary noise, particularly at night. We ask you to respect other people who may wish to be quiet.
  Thirdly, crossing the road. Be careful. The traffic moves on the left side of the road in this country. Use pedestrian crossing and do not take any chances when crossing the road. My next point is about litter(throwing away waste material in a public place). It is an offence to drop litter in the street.
  When you have something to throw away, please put it in your pocket and take it home, or put it in a litter bin. Finally, as regards smoking, it is against the law to buy cigarettes or tobacco if you are under 16 years of age.
  I'd like to finish by saying that if you require any sort of help or assistance, you should contact your local police station, who will be pleased to help you.
  Now, are there any questions?
