【英语卷(解析)·2015届四川省成都市高中毕业班第一次诊断性检测(201412)WORD版】第一节阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文并回答问题,然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上(请注意每题词数要求)。
My name is Maria. I left university with a good degree in English Literature,but no
sense of what I wanted to do. Over the next six years,I was trying to earn an income. I
tried journalism,but I didn't think I was any good,then finance,which I hated. Finally,I
got a job as a rights assistant at a famous publisher.
When I had enough savings to take a year off work,I decided to try to satisfy a deep-
down wish to write a novel. Attending a Novel Writing MA course gave me the structure
(构思)of writing my first 55,000 words.
It takes confidence to make a new start一there’s a dark period in-between where
you’re neither one thing nor the other. You’re out for dinner and people ask what you do,
and you’re too ashamed to say,“Well,I’m writing a novel,but I’m not quite sure if I’m
going to get there.”My confidence dived. Believing my novel could not be published,I put
it aside.
Then I met an agent who said I should send my novel out to agents. So,I did and,to
my surprise,got some wonderful feedback. I felt a little hope that I might actually become
a published writer and,after signing with an agent,I finished the second half of the novel.
The next problem was finding a publisher. After two-and-a-half years of no income,
just waiting and wondering,a publisher offered me a book deal-that publisher turned out
to be the one I once worked for.
It feels like an unbelievable stroke of luck. When you set out to do something
different,there’s no end in sight,so to find myself in a position where I now have my own
name on a contract(
