9.Taking photos while on holiday is not an uncom mon activity.Tourists do it all the time,but if you want to take things further,here are some tips that can help you along the way.First of all,there is the matter of equipment.Of course,most people believe that the higher end your camera is,the better the photos will turn out.(47)B The quality of DSLR cameras(数码单反相机) is superior to the one of small cameras a nd smartphones,but only if you know how to adjust(调整) their settings.However,if you don't know how to do it,an iPhone camera is enough too.(48)CYou can shoot amazing photos without having to travel with a large and heavy camera.
Secondly,you need to do some research in advance and discover the best photo spots.Your photos don't have to look like travel cards.On the contrary,you can catch the beauty of a place by finding its uncommon corners and subjects.For example,if you're going to a crowded city,don't just take photos of high buildings.(49)EYou may see a new face of the city at that time.
Thirdly,you have to be patient.(50)FFor the best picture,come back to the same spot several times or stay at one spot for some time.You might come across something special as you wait:a bird flying across an old temple,a mother and her baby passing by,or just the sun giving beautiful colors on the roofs.(51)D
Take as many photos as you can and don't be disappointed if your first travel photos are not National Geographic material,because they will get better with time.
A.So this is the most important.
B.But that is only true in a way.
C.Its quality has increased a lot.
D.Don't forget that practice makes perfect.
E.Try street photography or take pictures at night.
F.You may have to take several shots until you discover the right one.

Students of human migration speak of"push"and"pull"factors,which influence an individual's decision to move from one place to another.Push factors are associated with the place of origin.A push factor can be as simple and mild a matter as difficulty in finding a suitable job,or as traumatic as war,or severe famine.Obviously,refugees who leave their homes with guns pointed at their heads are motivated almost entirely by push factors.
Associated with the place of destination,pull factors are mostly economic,such as better job opportunities or the availability of good land to farm.In general,pull factors add up to an apparently better chance for a good life and material well-being than is offered by the place of origin.When there is a choice between several attractive potential destinations,the deciding factor might be a non-economic consideration such as the presence of relatives,friends,or at least fellow countrymen already established in the new place who are willing to help the newcomers settle in.Considerations of this sort lead to the development of migration flow.
Besides push and pull factors,there are what the sociologists call"intervening obstacles".Even if push and/or pull factors are very strong they still may be outweighed by intervening obstacles,such as the distance of the move,the trouble and cost of moving,the difficulty of entering the new country,and the problems likely to be encountered on arrival.
The decision to move is also influenced by"personal factors"of the potential migrant.The same push-pull factors and obstacles operate differently on different people,sometimes because they are at different stages of their lives,or just because of their varying abilities and personalities.The prospect of packing up everything and moving to a new and perhaps very strange environment may appear interesting and challenging to an unmarried young man and terribly difficult to a slightly older man with a wife and small kids.Similarly,the need to learn a new language and customs may excite one person and frighten another.
Regardless of why people move,migration of large numbers of people causes conflict.The newest arrivals are usually given the lowest-paid jobs and are resented by native people who may have to compete with them for those jobs.It has usually taken several decades for each group to be accepted into the mainstream of society in the host country.
