When I was 15, I announced to my English class that I was going to write my own books. All the students nearly fell out of their chairs, laughing at me. “Don’t be 1 . Only geniuses (天才) can become writers,” the English teacher said sarcastically(讽刺地). “And you are getting a D this term.” I was hurt deeply and I cried sadly.

That night I wrote a short, sad poem about 2 dreams and mailed it to the Capper’s Weekly newspaper. To my surprise, they published it, and sent me two dollars. I was a(an) 3 writer! I showed my teacher and my classmates. They laughed again. “Just plain dumb luck,(纯属侥幸)” the teacher said. However, I’d tasted 4 . I’d sold the first thing I’d ever written.

By the time I graduated from high school(with a C-minus average), I had scrapbooks filled with my published 5 . I never talked about my writing to my teachers, friends or my family again. They were dream killers, and if people must choose between their friends and their dreams, they must always choose their dreams.

Later, I wrote a book about what I understood and 6 about life. It took me nine months, just like a(an) 7 . I chose a publisher and wrote a letter, which read: “I wrote this book myself, I hope you like it. Chapters(章节) 6 and 12 are my 8 . Thank you.” I mailed it without an envelope.

A month later, I received a letter, and a request to start working on 9 book. Crying Wind became a bestseller, and was translated into 15 languages. People ask what college I attended, what degrees I have, and what qualities I have to be a writer. The answer is 10 . I just write. I’m not a genius, and I’m not gifted. I just write. To all those who dream of 11 , I’m shouting at you, “Yes, you 12 ! Don’t listen to them!” Writing is easy. It’s fun, and anyone can do it.

1. A. shy B. dishonest C. silly D. proud

2. A. strange B. broken C. beautiful D. unusual

3. A. welcomed B. educated C. honored D. paid

4. A. luck B. failure C. success D. pain

5. A. works B. poems C. letters D. jokes

6. A. did B. felt C. heard D. saw

7. A. animal B. plant C. baby D. boy

8. A. explanations B. reasons C. dreams D. favorites

9. A. others B. another C. other D. the other

10. A. many B. few C. some D. none

11. A. writing B. being famous C. success D. being rich

12. A. must B. need C. can D. should

任务型阅读

If you think you are too shy and want to be a little bit braver, just try the following things:

Be open to others. Tell people you are shy. There is no need to hide it. When they get to know you are a shy kid, they will understand you better. This also helps you feel more comfortable in talks.

Try to smile more. When you smile, people think you are friendly and easy to talk with. Remember that other people have feelings too and most people will stay away from an angry-looking face.

Learn to be a good talker. If you find it hard to start a conversation, say something nice about people around you. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person?

Get your attention elsewhere. Think more about ways to enjoy parties or games. Don’t waste time worrying about your look or whether people like you or not. You will become relaxed and find it’s not so hard to talk with others.

Take one small step at a time . Each time when you say “Hi” or smile at someone, say to yourself “ You can make it.’ Keeping trying and one day you’ll never feel shy when you talk to others.

阅读表达,阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在文章后的表格中填入恰当的单词,每空一词。

Much meaning can be conveyed (传送) with our eyes, so it is often said that eyes can speak. Do you have such kind of experience? In a bus you may look at a stranger, but not too long. And if he is sensing that he is being stared (盯) at, he may feel uncomfortable.

The same is in daily life. If you are looked at for more than necessary, you will look at yourself up and down to see if there is anything wrong with you. If nothing goes wrong, you will feel angry toward other’s stare at you that way. Eyes do speak, right?

Looking too long at someone may seem to be impolite and even rude. But things are different when it comes to stare at the opposite sex. If a man stares at a woman for more than 10 seconds and refuses to turn his eyes away from the woman, his purpose is obvious. That is, he wishes to attract her attention, to make her understand that he is admiring her.

However, the normal eye contact for two people during a conversation is that the speaker will only look at the listener from time to time; in order to make sure that the listener is paying attention to what the speaker is speaking, to tell him that he is interested.

If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking, as if he tries to control you, you will feel uncomfortable. A poor liar(说谎者) usually looks too long at the victim, because he believes that looking straight in the eye is a sign of honest communication.

In fact, continuous eye contact only happens between two lovers, who will enjoy looking at each other gently for a long time, to show feeling that words cannot express. Obviously, eye contact should be done according to the relationship between two people and the proper situation.

Eyes can talk

In our daily life

A lot of feelings can be conveyed to others with our eyes. There are a lot of facts to prove it.

You may feel 1 if you are stared at for more than necessary. And you wonder if there is anything wrong with you. If not, you will feel very angry.

When staring at the opposite sex

Looking too long at a woman you 2 means that you want to attract her attention.

And most of time, continuous eye contact is just for two lovers.

When having a 3
with others

If the speaker looks at the listener at 4 during the conversation, it’s a normal eye contact.

If the speaker is a liar, looking straight in the eye too long isn’t a sign of honest communication.

So remember to look at others at the 5 time. If not, it will make others uncomfortable.
