The large crowd viewing the spectacle burst out laughing, already knowing that Abe Lincoln was bound to get the worst of the deal. A poorer horse just couldn't exist anywhere and still be walking.
In a few minutes, however, Mr. Lincoln was seen approaching the general store carrying something quite large and bulky on his shoulders. As he drew nearer, the crowd saw what it was, and great shouts and laughter broke out.

The trick in food photography is to show the food looking fresh, so many dishes have
stand-ins, just as movie stars do. “When I get my lights and cameras set up, I remove the
stand-in and put in the real thing,” explains Ray Webber, who photographs food for magazine
advertisements. “Sometimes I have to brush the meat with its juices because it may have dried out
a bit. A and when I‘m shooting (拍照) something like tomatoes, I always carry water to spray them with dew just before I shoot.”
Shooting food outdoors has special problems. “I‘m always worrying about flies or worms crawling up
a glass,” Webber explains, “my worry is that someday a dog will come up from behind and run off
with the food.” Once Webber was shooting a piece of cheese outdoors and needed something to make
its color beautiful. Finally he found it: a weed with lovely blue flowers. When the shot appeared,
several people were horrified-the weed was deadly nightshade!
Just before being photographed, some meats and vegetables are _______.
A. fanned

C. frozen
