2 . NEW YORK—Gordon Parks, who experienced the struggles and victories of black America as a photographer for Life magazine and then became Hollywood's first major black director with " The Learning Tree" and the hit "Shaft," died Tuesday, his family said.

Parks, who also wrote fiction and was a gifted composer, died at his home in New York, according to a former wife, and nephew Charles Parks.

"Nothing came easy," Parks wrote in his autobiography(自传)."I was just born with a need to explore every tool shop of my mind, and with long searching and hard work, I became devoted to my restlessness. "

He covered everything from fashion to politics to sports at Life from 1948 to 1968.

But as a photographer, he was perhaps best known for his photo essays on the effects of poverty in the United States and abroad and on the spirit of the civil rights movement.

He went through a series of jobs as a teen and young man, including piano player and railroad dining car waiter. The breakthrough came when he was about 25 , when he bought a used camera in a pawn shop (典当行) for $7.50. He became a freelance (自由投稿的)fashion photographer, went on to Vogue magazine and then to Life in 1948.

" Reflecting now, I realize that, even within the limits of my childhood vision, I was on a search for pride, meanwhile taking measurable glimpses of how certain blacks, who suffered from racism, were against it," he wrote.

When he accepted an award from Wichita Stale University in May 1991, he said it was "another step forward in my making peace with Kansas and Kansas making peace with me."

1. Which of the following jobs didn't Gordon Parks do?

2. What can you infer from the passage?

D.Parks married only once.
3. What directly helped Parks be a fashion photographer?
