Man has always wanted to fly. Some of the greatest men in history have thought about the problem. One of these, for example, was the great Italian artist, Leonardo da Vinci (达芬奇). In the sixteenth century he made designs for machines that could fly. But they were never built.,

Throughout history, other less famous men have wanted to fly. An example was a man in England 800years ago. He made a pair of wings from chicken feathers. Then he fixed them to his body and jumped into the air from a tall building. He did not fly very far. He fell to the ground and broke every bone in his body.

The first real step took place in France in 1783. Two brothers, the Mongolfiers, made a very large “hot air balloon”. They knew that hot air rises. Why not fill a balloon with it? The balloon was made of cloth and paper. In September of that year, the King and Queen of France came to see the balloon. They watched it carry the very first air passengers into the sky. The passengers were a sheep and a chicken. We do not know how they felt about the trip. But we do know that the trip lasted 8 minutes and that the animals landed safely. Two months later, two men did the same thing. They rose above Paris in a balloon of the same kind. Their trip lasted twenty-five minutes and they traveled about 8 kilometers.

Photography is now big business. Did you know, for instance, that there were15 million cameras in our country? That 700 million photographs are taken a year, more than one-third of them in colour? Think of the amount of photography in television, the cinema, newspaper, books, advertising(广告) and so on. In modern life people learn a lot from pictures, so photography is more and more important. It is also more complicated(复杂的)and more expensive than it used to be. You may only want to take good photographs of “faces and places’’. If som we can help you to get better results. You needn;t waste any more money. You ay want to learn more about photography and how it is used. If so , join the club. You won't be disappointed.
