Joel Sartore is a writer,teacher,and photographer. His words and beautiful images show his love of photography and of the natural world.
Question 1：How did you become a National Geographic photographer?
My first job was for a newspaper. After a few years there,I met a National Geographic photographer. He liked my photos and said I should send some to the magazine. So I did. That led to a one-day job. And that led to a nine-day job,and so on.
Question 2：______
To get into National Geographic,you have to give them something they don't have. It's not enough just to be a great photographer. You also have to be a scientist,for example,or be able to dive under sea ice,or spend maybe several days in a tree.
Question 3：Is it hard to get a job as a photographer today?
It's now harder to work for magazines. Technology makes it easy to take good pictures,which means there are more photos and photographers. Also,the Web is filled with photos from all around the world that are free,or cost very little. These photos are often good enough to be put in books and magazines.
Question 4：I want to be a photographer. Do you have any advice for me?
Advice? Well,work hard. Be passionate (热情的) about every project you work on. Take lots of pictures in different situations. Look at others' photos thoughtfully and learn from them. And be curious about everything. There's something to photograph everywhere.

答案： 1. A 推理判断题。通读全文可知，本文是一问一答的方式，因此是采访。2. C 细节理解题。根据"My first job was for a newspaper."可知，Joel 过去是为一个报社工作。3. D 信息还原题。根据"To get into National Geographic，you have to give them something they don't have. It's not enough just to be a great photographer. You also have to be a scientist，for example，or be able to dive under sea ice，or spend maybe several days in a tree."可知，本段在说仅仅成为一名好的摄影师是不够的，你还必须是一名科学家，或者能够潜入海冰下，或者在树上待上几天。因此这个问题应是提问《国家地理》需要什么样的摄影师。4. B 细节理解题。根据"Technology makes it easy to take good pictures，which means there are more photos and photographers. Also，the Web is filled with photos from all around the world that are free，or cost very little."可知，Joel 说了两种原因。5. C 推理判断题。根据"You also have to be a scientist，for example，or be able to dive under sea ice，or spend maybe several days in a tree."可知，擅长科学和潜水的摄影师更可能被雇用。
