Final Exam

1. The man was pushed onto the train tracks with a train on the way, and people were not able to save him. They photographer says he took the photos to try and stop the train, and he was able to look at these probably because he might have seen many bad things and got used to it.

2. The photographer said he tried to stop the train by the flash of the camera.

3. I don't think he should have because it will look like he is just a stubborn photographer who only cares for himself. I think he should have kept trying to help him and actually call for help.

4. No. Like I said he should have called other people to help even if they are strangers.

5. I don't agree, because he could have had a family that seen that and think how rude and disgusting it is for no one to help. It could also get people to believe that everyone in the world is evil and doesn't care about someones life. It makes people lose trust and hope in others.

6. I would say stopping bad things form happening, because pictures can be powerful things and if you capture an image of a bad thing people will feel bad and want to stop or help the thing. I feel peoples lives are more important than a story on the news even if it is a powerful story. Would you want to watch something bad on the news or do want to see the bad thing stop on the news?

7. Most of the time yes because they can get closer to people or understand things in a better way. There is a small part that says no because some things can get a little messy which could cause threats and such.

8. It depends. If someones in trouble then they should help not report a story. That goes the same for an object getting damaged or an animal in distress. If a good thing is going on then they should let it go and report the happy things. If they try to make a sad story out of a good thing then they have a problem.

9. Well the photographer says he tried his best to save him. If you try your best then there is nothing more you can do, but in this situation so much more could have been done to help the man.
