The Photographer(摄影师)

　　Sam Higgins was a famous photographer. He travelled all over the world, taking photographs for magazines and newspapers. His photographs won many prizes and he earned(挣得) a lot of money.

　　 “I'll do anything to get a good photograph,”he often said.“I'll go anywhere at any time, even if it is dangerous.”

　　And he spoke the truth. He had photographs of earthquakes (地震), forest fires, floods(洪水), even wars. If something interesting happened, Sam went to photograph it.

　　He was a married man and his wife often asked him to take her with him, but he always refused.

　　 “I travel for my work, not for pleasure,”he told her. “You won't enjoy yourself, and I won't have time to look after you. Sometimes there's not even anywhere to stay and I have to sleep outside. I often don't have a good meal or a bath for days. You won't like it.”

　　“Sam, I'm not a child, ”his wife argued(争论). “I can look after myself. Please, take me with you next time you go overseas.”

　　Sam did not say anything but he thought about it, and when he was asked to go to Africa he said, “You can come to Africa with me if you want to. I've got to take photographs of the wildlife(野生动物) there. It should be interesting and not too uncomfortable. We'll be staying with a ranger(森林或公园管理员). ”

　　His wife was very excited, and at first she had a very enjoyable time.

　　Then Sam went off to find some lions to photograph. His wife went with him, but before long they became separated(分开). They came to a fork in the path, and she walked down one path while he walked down the other.

　　Then Sam heard her screaming(尖叫). He ran back to the fork in the path and saw her running toward him. A huge lion was running after her.

　　Quickly Sam took his camera out of its case and pointed it at his wife and the lion.

　　Then he shouted, “Slow down, woman. I can't get you both in the picture.”
