单选题 《复合题被拆开情况》 (1) Roie Galitz’s adventurous spirit has quite literally driven him to the ends of the Earth. He has made several excursions to the Arctic islands of Svalbard and the ice sheets of Antarctica. He has also been to the snowy plain of Norway and the wild waters of Kamchatka, Russia—all in the hopes of capturing some of the Earth’s most elusive creatures. (2) The photographer comes from Tel Aviv, Israel. He first fell in love with wildlife photography in the sweltering savannas of Tanzania, Africa. Galitz says he prefers to work in the cold—even when that can mean temperatures as low as 40 degrees below zero. He layers up multiple pairs of long trousers, fleece shirts and the thickest wool socks he can find. On top of all of that, he wears an 8-pound Arctic suit. "When you’re cold, you can always put on an extra layer," he says. "But when you’re hot, there is a legal limit to how much you can remove." (3) Extreme environments are also where he finds his favorite photography subjects: animals that are rarely viewed in the wild. (4) "If I showed things that have been viewed time and time again, it wouldn’t be special. It wouldn’t be unique," Galitz says. "It would just be like photographing a sparrow. Who cares about a sparrow? Everybody sees them all the time. As a photographer, I always try to find what has been done, what hasn’t been done, why it hasn’t been done—then try to do it." (5) One photo that captures Galitz’s quest features a polar bear with a live seal in its grasp. This moment of the hunt had rarely, if ever, been photographed before. Local bear experts doubted that Galitz would be able to get the shot. But after a long night of silently kneeling on the ice, fighting to stay warm but remaining still so as not to disturb the seals swimming below—he got the shot. (6) Venturing into the wild comes with some risk, from frostbite to close encounters with bears and walruses. Galitz takes it all in stride. A minor case of frostbite in the Arctic is like getting a sunburn at the beach, he says. And the cold forces him to be resourceful. On multiple occasions, he has used his nose to operate the touch screen on his camera. Sometimes, though, he will quickly remove his gloves to snap the shot. (7) Wildlife photography requires a certain spirit, Galitz says. For many of the far-off places he chooses to shoot, he has to obtain production permits and coordinate the often-complicated logistics of getting there. But the planning pays off, he says, when he gets the perfect shot. In a photo titled "Polar Bear Family Hug", he captured two cubs and a mother bear in a moment of vulnerability as they awoke from a nap. (8) "That’s actually the best compliment a wildlife photographer can ask for," Galitz says. "Because when an animal is sleeping in front of you, it means she trusts you." (9) In another photo of brown bears playing together in Lake Kuril in Russia, Galitz laid low to the ground and took shot after shot. He was trying to capture the symmetry of the bears’ open mouths. "With wildlife, you control the scene by controlling yourself," he says, referring to his position in relation to his furry subjects. You can’t tell a bear to strike a pose or turn toward the light. So for a wildlife photographer, Galitz explains, it’s all about the technique. (10) In addition to stunning action shots, Galitz also looks to capture moments that will elicit specific feelings from the viewer. "When I’m photographing the animals, I’m trying to show their character, their soul," he says. Many of his photos depict animals in moments of closeness— courting, parenting, cuddling—to demonstrate their individual personalities and familial relationships. "I’m trying to make people relate to animals in an intimate way, as I am relating to animals in an intimate way," he says. (11) Galitz also regularly uses his photography to promote conservation efforts. Looking at his photos from year to year, he says he can see the world changing and the habitats of the animals he photographs disappearing. "My images are testimony," he says. "This is what I saw last year, this is what I saw here, you can see the difference. We can’t ignore that."《问题》:Which of the following statements is CORRECT about Galitz?
【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】推断题。由题干可知,解答此题要综合全文内容。第二段第二、三句提到,加利茨的工作是野生动物摄影,并且他更喜欢在寒冷的环境中工作;第三段进一步强调了他最喜欢的摄影对象是野外鲜少见到的动物。综合可知,加利茨喜欢在寒冷的环境中拍摄稀有动物,故C为答案。第一段最后一句和第三段都强调了加利茨喜欢拍摄罕见的动物,而非不同种类的动物,故排除A;第三段表明他最喜欢的摄影对象是野外鲜少见到的动物,而极端环境是他找到这些对象之地,并非他更喜欢去地球上的偏远地区拍摄,或者他对极端环境兴趣浓厚,故同时排除B和D。
