And even though my school had over a thousand students, I didn't really 2 to notice the differences between us all. But this boring view of mine changed when my 3 bought me a camera for my birthday. After a month of playing with my new camera, I realized I had no 4 for taking pictures. Even if I got friends to pose in front of ancient buildings and in flowery fields, 5 seemed to work.

Before the 7 , I thought, "Maybe I should bring my camera." 8 , this walk was what began my love for photography. When I was walking on the tracks without a model and only 9 around me, I realized how 10 it was to look at the details ( 细节) of things.

So far, my works have appeared in two magazines and two different museums. They're not huge achievements, but they're important to me. And they're the 15 of how much my artistic abilities have grown. Thanks to this birthday gift from my parents, I now have a new way of looking at the world. 1. A. Also B. However C. Then D. Besides 2. A. rush B. agree C. care D. dare 3.
