Many a young person tells me he wants to be a writer. I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there’s a big difference between "being a writer" and writing. In most cases these individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hour alone at a typewriter. "You’ve got to want to write," I say to them, "not want to be a writer. "

The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor paying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded. When I left a 20 year career in the U. S. Coast Guard to become a freelance (自由栏目) writer, I had no prospects at all. What I did have was a friend who found me my room in a New York apartment building. It didn’t even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom. I immediately bought a used manual typewriter and felt like a genuine writer.

After a year or so, however, I still hadn’t gotten a break and began to doubt myself. It was so hard to sell a story that I barely made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write, I had dreamed about it for years. I wasn’t going to be one of those people who die wondering: What if? I would keep putting my dream to the test even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure. This is the shadow land of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.

The passage is meant to__________

A.warn young people of the hardships that a successful writer has to experience

B.advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professional writer

C.show young people it’s unrealistic for a writer to pursue wealth and fame

D.encourage young people to pursue a writing career

12、 What can be concluded from the passage?

A.Genuine writers often find their work interesting and rewarding.

B.A writer’s success depends on luck rather than on efforts.

C.Famous writers usually live in poverty and isolation.

D.The chances for writers to become successful are small.

13、 Why did the author begin to doubt himself after the first year of his writing career?

A.He wasn’t able to produce a single book.

B.He hadn’t seen a change for the better.

C.He wasn’t able to have a rest for a whole year.

D.He thought that he lacked imagination.

14、 "...people who die wondering: What if?" (Line 3, Para 3) refers to "those___________

A.who think too much of the dark side of life

B.who regret giving up their career halfway

C.who think a lot without making a decision

D.who are full of imagination even upon death

15、 "Shadow land" in the last sentence refers to__________

A.the wonderland one often dreams about

B.the bright future that one is looking forward to

C.the state of uncertainty before one’s final goal is reached

D.a world that exists only in one’s imagination

What do we mean by a satisfactory standard of living? Obviously, it must include the basic necessities of life such as food, clothing and shelter. To get these necessities on regular basis, a person must have a reliable income. But we have other needs which would probably also be included as basic, such as health and education facilities.

We may think of all of these as our needs. Yet most of us would be far from satisfied if we had nothing more than these which are supplied for us. We all enjoy extra income to spend on things like books, sports or hobbies. Sometimes we save some of this extra income to pay for future expense of this type on holidays. So we must add our wants to our basic needs. Our standard of living is the degree, to which these needs and wants are satisfied.

But as time goes on, what we think of as our basic needs changes. Twenty years ago a television would have been a luxury, and still is in many countries now. Even now we cannot say it is a need in the same sense as food, clothing and shelter. Yet if most of the people of a country have one, it comes to be accepted as a need. It is possible therefore to have food, clothing and shelter and still be poor by the standards of our own society.

What we need in life is divided into __________ according to this article.

A.the basic necessities and luxury

B.many kinds of need such as food, clothing and houses

C.four groups the basic necessities, luxury, reliable income and future expense

D.the basic necessities and reliable income

17、 A person who gets the basic necessities must __________ according to the writer.

A.have a reliable income

B.learn how to please his manager

C.finish his work ahead the time

D.get a good education

18、 We all enjoy __________.

A.having only reliable income

B.having reliable income and extra income

C.having nothing more than food and clothing

D.having nothing more than reliable income

19、 With time going on, __________.

A.a luxury may change into a need which most people want to get

B.the basic needs are getting smaller and smaller

C.a luxury and the basic needs can be exchanged

D.the basic needs can be changed into a luxury

20、 If most of the people of a country have a television, we __________.

A.can say the television is a need in the same sense as food and clothing and shelter

B.can say the television must be in the basic necessities

C.cannot say the television is in the basic necessities

D.can say every family must have one
