The Windy Day

Book report By Jason Ma
Title(标题): The Windy Day
Writer: Alisha Wood
The reason for my choice:
The idea of a recent popular film comes from Alisha Wood’s stories. The story interests me.
Summary of the book:
It is about what happens to a little boy called Daniel on a windy day. One day, Daniel is flying his kite on Peace Hill. Suddenly, a strong wind blows up the hill and lifts Daniel right off his feet. Daniel holds on to his kite tightly(紧紧地) and is blown into the clouds. Finally, he lands in a small town with a sign, “Nowhere: The Town Nobody’s Ever Heard Of”. This worries Daniel.
He asks people around where Nowhere is. But all of them say, “Nowhere. Nobody knows.” He tries hard to find out the way home but he cannot. It is like an adventure(冒险) until(直到……为止) he meets the King. Daniel talks to him and he decides to help Daniel. He claps his hands twice. A great wind comes up and pulls the kite, along with Daniel, into the clouds and back to Peace Hill.

Photography is a way of making pictures by using light. The word “photography” means “to draw with light”.
A camera is used to take a photo. The camera focuses(使聚焦) reflected light from an object, or scene, and records this light onto film(胶片) or a digital chip(数字芯片). The film, or information on the digital chip, can then be processed(冲洗) into a photo.
The idea of taking photos has been around for hundreds of years. However, it was not until 1826 that an inventor was able to take the first photo. He took this photo by covering a metal plate with light-sensitive(感光的) chemicals and exposing(暴露) it to light through a camera lens(镜头).
Over the next 50 years, photographers moved from using metal plates to glass plates and finally to light-sensitive film to record an image.
Today, light-sensitive film is still used. However, digital technology(技术) has become more popular, and most images are now recorded inside cameras on a digital chip.
每题答案不超过5个词。
【1】What does the word “photography” mean in English?
【2】How long has the idea of taking photos been around?
【3】When could an inventor take the first photo?
