READING
Read the passage and decide whether each statement is True or False.
Shooting Wildlife
Wildlife photography-whether you’re trying to photograph a herd of elephants on the Serengeti Plains or
squirrels in your backyard-is patience. Wild animals are going to do what they’re going to do. Unfortunately,
you can’t ask them to look this way, do something cute, or stand where the light is better. You have to be
there, and ready, when they decide to look cute or do something interesting. Be prepared to wait, and wait,
and wait-it takes a long time to get good wildlife shots, even longer to make great ones.
But it’s not wasted time. The longer you spend with an animal or a group of animals, the better you get to
know them and their habits. You get to see different individuals, and you’ll get to the point where you can
expect what they might do at a particular time of day or in a certain situation.
27. We need to be patient to take good photos of wild animals.
28. Wild animals can follow our instructions.
29. It’s a waste of time to wait to get a good photo.
30. Waiting for a long time helps us know the animals’ habits better.
Choose the option that best completes each blank in the passage.
