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
65．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
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
67．Which of the following is a good news photograph?
A．A bird escapes from the cage．                          
B．A policeman is robbed in the street．
C．Two dogs fight in the park．                      
D．An old couple quarrel at home．

C
(1)Mr. Brown(the motorist)
At about 9∶20 p.m. on October 14th, I was driving along Market Road in the direction of Midwick. I wanted to go to Sturham to collect my wife, who had been visiting some friends. I prepared to turn into Sturham Road, which was on my right. In the distance, I saw the lights of a car moving towards me but it was a long way from me. I put out my hand to show that I was going to turn right. Then I started to turn slowly towards Sturham Road. Suddenly there was a loud noise on the passenger’s (near) side of the car. I stopped the car and got out. A motorcycle had hit my car. The motorcyclist had been thrown over the car. He was injured, so I ran to a shop to phone for help.
(2)Mr. Smith (the injured motorcyclist)
On the evening of October 14th, I was going home along Market Road towards Newtown. I was riding my motorcycle. I was going slowly because some of the streetlights were out and the road was wet and slippery. Just before Sturham Road, a car suddenly drove right across my path. The driver did not flash his lights to give a warning. I could not turn in time, so I hit the side of the car. When I woke up, I was lying in a hospital in Market Road.

At about 9∶10p.m.on October 14th, I left my home in Midwick. Ten minutes later I was riding my motorcycle along Market Road. I was going to Newtown.
