The sun was shining when I got on No. 151 bus. We passengers sat jammed in heavy clothes. No one  36  . That’s one of the unwritten rules  37  we see the same faces every day, we prefer to  38  behind our newspapers. People who sit so close together are using them to keep  39  distance.

   As the bus came near the Mile, a  40  suddenly rang out, “Attention! This is your  41  speaking.” We looked at the back of the driver’s head. “Put your  42  down, all of you.” The papers came down. “Now, turn and  43  the person next to you.”

   Surprisingly we all did it. Still no one smiled. I faced an old woman. I saw her  44  every day. We waited for the next  45  from the driver. “Now repeat after me. Good morning, neighbor!”

   But our voices were a little  46  . For many of us, this was the  47  word we had spoken that day. When we said them together, like  48  to people beside us, we couldn’t help  49  . There was the feeling of relief. Moreover, there was the sense of ice being  50  . To say the three words was not so  51  after all.

   The bus driver said nothing more. He didn’t  52  to. Not a single newspaper went back up. I heard laughter, a  53  sound I had never heard before in this bus.

   When I  54  my stop, I said goodbye to my seatmate, and then  55  the bus. That day I was starting happily.

Blind photography sounds strange.But a striking exhibition of photographs in California argues that it develops as a result of the contemporary art.The show "Sight Unseen", at the California Museum of Photography until Aug.29, includes everything: underwater scenes, landscapes, abstracts and everything else you might expect from a "sighted" photographer.

       How do the blind take their photographs? Some rely on assistants to set up and then describe the shots (镜头) , and others just point and shoot in the right place."Just like any good artists," says McCulloh."They have their unique ways of operating." One participating photographer is Pete Eckert, an artist with multiple degrees in design and sculpture who only turned to photography after losing his vision in the mid-1990s.He opens the shutter (快门) on his camera and then uses flashlights, lights, and candies to paint his scene on film.A former fashion photographer in Chicago, Weston, lost his vision due to AIDS in 1996 and focuses on images of destruction and disability.His photos are also a star of the show.

       What do gallery-goers say? "I was very impressed by it.The technique and experience was amazingly different," says John Hesketh, a printmaker in Anaheim."You never have a sense of feeling sorry for these people because they've worked very hard to prove their value."

       Beyond the praise, however, the exhibition also makes a great example for disabled people everywhere.That point was explained in early May during a discussion on the TV show.At the very end of the talk, one attendee expressed his opinion."This exhibition is extraordinary and revolutionary for many reasons.I think that by being an artist with a disability, you are continuing the work of those people who fought for basic civil rights to gain access and to have a voice.In that way, it's so wonderful that your photographs say it all."

1.From the passage we know that some blind people take photos by

       A.describing the things to their assistants

       B.holding the camera and shooting randomly(随意地)

       C.opening the shutter with the help of others

       D.using special equipment designed for them

2.We can learn from the passage that blind photographers ______

       A.were not born blind                   B.do jobs related to art

       C.focus on different subjects                    D.like photos of destruction

3.The significance of the exhibition lies in the fact that ______.

       A.the California Museum of Photography receives praises for holding the show

       B.the public have a chance to know what the blind people are concerned about

       C.the blind photographers have a good place to show their works

       D.the exhibition can be very inspiring to the blind in the world
