So he invented a very simple camera. He put it in a window of his house and took a picture of his garden.
That was the first photo.
The next important date in the history of photography (摄影术) was in 1837. That year, Daguere,
another Frenchman, took a picture of his reading room. He used a new kind of camera in a different way.
In his picture you could see everything very clearly, even the smallest thing. This kind of photo was called
a Daguerreotype.
Soon, other people began to use Daguere"s way. Travelers brought back wonderful photos from all
around the world. People took pictures of famous buildings, cities and mountains.
In about 1840, photography was developed. Then photographers could take pictures of people and
moving things. That was not simple. The photographers had to carry a lot of film and other machines. But
this did not stop them, for example, some in the United States worked so hard.
Mathew Brady was a famous American photographer. He took many pictures of great people. These
pictures were unusual because they were very lifelike (栩栩如生的).

in a comer and used smoke to make the mice inside come out. A while later they saw mice running out,
one after another. Then, everyone thought that all the mice had escaped. But just as they began to clean
up, they saw two mice squeezing (挤) out at the mouth of the hole. With some efforts (努力), the mice
finally got out. However, it was strange that after they came out of the hole, they did not run away at
once. Instead, one chased after the other near the mouth of the hole. It seemed that one was trying
to bite (咬) the tail of the other.
Everyone was confused, so they walked nearer to take a look. They realized that one of the mice
was blind and could not see anything, and the other was trying to allow the blind mouse to bite on his
tail so that he could pull the blind one with him to escape.
After seeing what happened, everyone said nothing and lost in thought. During the meal time, the
group of people sat down in a circle and started to chat about what happened to the two mice.
One serious American official said, "I think the relationship (关系) between those two mice was that of
king and guard." The others thought for a while and said, "That was why!"
A smart French said, "I think the relationship between those two mice was that of husband and wife."
Again the others thought for a while, and all felt it made sense.
A Japanese said, "I think the relationship between those two mice was that of mother and son."
Once again the others thought for a while, and felt this was more reasonable. So they expressed
agreement another time.
At that moment, one Chinese asked, "Why did those two mice have to have a certain relationship?
Suddenly, the group looked back at the Chinese and remained speechless. The American official,
the French and the Japanese who had spoken earlier all lowered their heads in shame, and did not
dare (敢) to answer.
In fact, the true love is not built on friendship, loyalty (忠贞), or blood relationship, Instead, it is
based on no relationship.
