determining (S102, S202, S402, S1202) a page currently displayed on the touch screen as a specified page in response to determining that the duration of the pressing operation reaches a preset duration; obtaining (S103, S203, S1203) a sliding operation acting on the touch screen, wherein the sliding operation and the pressing operation are successive operations, characterized in that the pressing operation refers to an operation in which three fingers of a user press the touch screen side by side and three touch points are formed by the three fingers on the touch screen; a starting point of the sliding operation corresponds to one of the three touch points of the pressing operation, the slide operation is performed by the three fingers sliding on the touch screen side by side, and the sliding operation is performed from a top of the touch screen to a bottom of the touch screen; and the method further comprises: displaying a selection box on the touch screen at a first position point, in response to determining that the duration of the pressing operation reaches the preset duration, wherein the first position point corresponds to the starting point of the sliding operation; controlling a lower side of the selection box to move with sliding movement of the three fingers on the touch screen, and controlling a position of an upper side of the selection box to remain unchanged; entering (S205, S407) an area screenshot mode when an end point of the sliding operation is within a specified area defined between a top and a bottom of the specified page; entering a long screenshot mode when the end point of the sliding operation is outside the specified area defined between the top and the bottom of the specified page; taking, as a screenshot image, at least one image in an area selected by the selection box when the sliding operation ends, wherein the lower side of the selection box is located at an end point of the sliding operation when the sliding operation ends; and capturing the screenshot image. obtaining (S101, S201, S401, S1201) a duration of a pressing operation acting on the touch screen in response to detecting the pressing operation; determining (S102, S202, S402, S1202) a page currently displayed on the touch screen as a specified page in response to determining that the duration of the pressing operation reaches a preset duration;
