In this important year for Europe, here is your chance to become one of the finest reporters and

The fellowships are established specially for those ambitious early-career journalists with bold
ideas and a lively writing style, each capable of adapting to the excitement and pressures of a

B
When my three boys were young, our summer vacation consisted of driving the nine hours to
my parents' place in Maine, where I grew up. While we loved those visits, the truth is we couldn't
afford to go anywhere else. My husband, David, and I had finally saved up enough to buy our first
home. We'd even made an agreement: We wouldn't spend more than $ 100 without consulting each
other.
On one of those holidays, I took the boys to the local library, where a silent auction was
underway. I was attracted by one item: Shot nearby, on the rocky coast, the photo was naturalistic,
capturing the characteristic of the young subjects and the beauty of my home state. Up for bid: a
session with the photographer.
In a hurry, I wrote down my name on the sign-up sheet, half sure that my offer of $ 500 would
be topped. It wasn't. And though I felt bad about breaking my agreement with David, I was happy
with my bid won.
The morning of the shoot, we put the kids into the car and drove to a favorite beach. The
photographer, already standing in the parking lot with a camera around her neck, started snapping
pictures the minute they got out of their car seats. She gently tried to persuade the boys forward,
leading them to gather around a rock pool.
When the contact sheet arrived, I knew it had been worth the money. In the photos each boy's
personality shone clearly.
More than a dozen years later, the portrait is a touchstone for me, a key to understanding who
my children are. The photograph is a piece of art and a piece of our family history, worth every
penny.
4. What was the author doing when she got to the silent auction?
A. She was prepared to take a picture. B. She was much annoyed by the boys.
C She was alone wandering in a library. D. She was suddenly appealed to by an
item.
5. What does the author think of the photographer?
