Many a young person tells me he wants to be a writer. I always encourage
and such people, but I also explain that there's a big difference between a writerwriting. In most cases these individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the
long hours at a typewriter. “You have got to want to write,”I said 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 writer, I had no prospects at all. What I did have was a friend who found for 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 typewriter and
felt like a genuine writer.
and began to doubt After a year or so, however, I still hadn't got a breakmyself. It was so hard to sell a story that barely made enough to eat. But I knew I
to write. I had dreamed about it for many years. I wasn't going to be one wanted
of those people who died wondering. What if? I would keep putting my dream to 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.

一、阅读理解（共1道小题，共50.0分） 1.Americans with small families own a small car or a large one. If both parents are working, they usually have two cars. When the family is large, one of the cars is sold and they will buy a van(住房汽车) A small car can hold four persons and a large car can hold six persons but it is very crowded. A van hold seven persons easily, so a family with three children could ask their grandparents to go on a holiday travel. They could all travel together. Mr. Hagen and his wife had a third child last year. This made them sell a second car and buy a van. The sixth and seventh seat are used to put other things, for a family of five must carry many suitcases when they travel. Americans call vans motor homes. A motor home is always used for holidays. When a family are traveling to the mountains or to the seaside, they can live in their motor home for a few days or weeks. All the members of a big family can enjoy a happier life when they are traveling together. That is why motor homes have become very popular. In America there are many parks for motor homes. 1.
