There are several ways to create a photograph. The most common photographs are made using a camera. 39 Like the eye, the camera takes in rays（光线） of light reflected from a subject. It then focuses the rays into an image. 40 Newer cameras record the image on an electronic storage device（存储设备） such as a memory card. Once the image is recorded, it can be seen and enjoyed by many people.
When using a camera, the photographic process needs care and patience. Creating great printed photographs by using older cameras requires five steps①finding a subject, ② focusing on the subject, ③ allowing light onto the film（胶片）, ④developing the film, and⑤producing the photograph. 41 They use a room called a darkroom. It’s “dark” so that light doesn’t completely destroy the negatives.
42 Through photographs we can learn about other parts of the world and see how people live. We can also imagine what life was like in other time periods since the mid-1800s, when the camera was invented. Special cameras can record images in places most human beings can’t go, like planets far away or deep oceans. But, best of all, photographs remind us of the special people and special times in our lives. 43 For them, the photographs they take are priceless.
A．Older cameras record the image on film.
B．All the steps should be taken with great care.
C．People need to make good use of the cameras.
D．In many ways, a camera works like a human eye.
E．Photography makes our lives richer in many ways.
F．Many professional photographers do all five steps themselves.
G．Most people take pictures of their loved ones and special celebrations.
