11、直知道时尚派对和活动在哪里举行，但他喜欢拍摄贫穷布朗克斯的普通人，就像拍摄富裕曼哈顿的贵宾一样。他在其他人无法从简单的日常场景中找到灵感，比如一个男人在当地杂货店买橙子，或者一个女人坐在涂鸦覆盖的地铁上回家。这些事情都是真实的，坎宁安正是在他们的现实中看到了美丽和潜力。通过对人们穿着的着迷，而不是对他们是谁的着迷，他向每个人打开了时尚的大门他认为时尚属于人民，而不仅仅是上流社会和大品牌。grocery store 杂货店advanced equipment 先进的设备 4 Moreover,what made Cunningham great was his devotion to photo

14、顾 What is main idea of this paragraph?His devotion to photography 5 Although he was a world-famous fashion photographer,Cunninghams approach to life was uncomplicated.He lived in a small apartment with a shared washroom.A simple restaurant was where he usually had the same meal of sausages,eggs and

15、coffee.5尽管坎宁安是世界著名的时尚摄影师，但他的生活方式并不复杂。他住在一间共用洗手间的小公寓里。在一家简单的餐厅里，他通常会在那里吃同样的香肠、鸡蛋和咖啡。world-famous 举世闻名的 approach to 接近uncomplicated 简单的 6 Cunningham never accepted the benefits offered to him for being a fashion photographer.He valued his integrity and would not be bought by anyone,no matter how many

17、aft,enabling him to capture New Yorks unique street style.6坎宁安从来没有接受过作为一名时尚摄影师给他的好处。他重视自己的正直，无论有多少免费衣服或飞往遥远目的地的航班，他都不会被任何人买。如果他去参加名人聚会，他在那里是为了工作而不是娱乐。“金钱是最便宜的东西，”他曾说过，然后补充道：“自由是最昂贵的。”晋升让坎宁安专注于自己的技艺，使他能够捕捉到纽约独特的街头风格。7 Cunninghams passion for photography lasted throughout his life.He was 87 when he pa
