He hunted wild animals there and he also took other men to hunt, which was his work. One day a letter brought Andy a new job. This job changed both his feeling about animals and his way of hunting. The letter said,?1 want to write a story about bighorn sheep（大角羊）． I need pictures to go with my tory. Will you get pictures of the sheep for me? Andys two sons wanted their father to take the job. We will help you!” they said. Bighorn sheep are very wild. Andy knew it would be hard to get their pictures.“But why not try? they said. For days, Andy and his sons tried to get their pictures, They did not want the sheep to hear them or see them, so they walked softly. They hid behind rocks, but the sheep always ran away. Then one day, Andy and his sons walked around a big rock. They met some sheep face to face, but they didnt run. Now I know why the sheep run away, Andy said. They run because we come up behind them. From now on, we will stay where they can see us.? The next day; Andy saw some sheep right out in the open. He and his sons walked toward them. They did not try to hide, and they did walk slowly. They knew that any fast move would frighten them away． Dont look direct at the sheep, Andy said. Wild animals do not like to be looked at. They will run away. They looked off to this side and to that side, and they walked closer and closer. And soon they were close enough to get good clear pictures. They made good friends with the wild sheep -and sent many fine pictures to the writer for his story. Since then, they have never hunted the bighorn sheep again. 21. What was the new job Andy got? A. To hunt bighorn sheep. B. To protect bighorn sheep. C. To take pictures of bighorn sheep. D.
