A.But for most of us, if there is any writing to be done,we have to do it ourselves.
B.However, the managers may sometimes cause the writers a lot of trouble
C.Any good writers, like good cooks, do not suddenly appear full-blown 处的最佳答案.
There are still some remote places in the world where you might find a public scribe to do your business or social writing for you, for a fee. There are a few managers who are lucky enough to have the service of that rate kind of secretary who can take care of all sorts of letter writing with no more than a quick note to work from. But for most of us, if there is any writing to be done, we have to do it ourselves.
We have to write school papers, business papers or home papers. We are constantly called on to put words to paper. It would be difficult to count the number of such words, messages, letters, and reports put into the mails or delivered by hand, but the daily figure must be enormous. What is more, everyone who writes expects, or at least hopes. We want whatever we write to be read, from first word to last, not just thrown into some “letters-to-be-read” file (档案) or into a wastepaper basket. This is the reason we bend our efforts toward learning and practicing the skill of interesting, effective writing.

听力原文: Some children wish to be writers some day, They mean that they want to write stories or books which many persons will read. I would like to remind them that they will need to be good readers and to read a great deal in order to be good writers.
Nearly all great writers were read too long before they started to school, and have been reading for hours and hours every day since they became good readers. Instead of watching TV in the evening, they spend much of their spare time reading books.
If you are a good reader, it won't take you long to do the reading homework your teacher asks you to do. Then you will have time to read other books for fun. Because you read so well, you keep looking for more books to read.
While making up your mind to become a good writer, you had better say to yourself. "I must read more and more if I am really to become a good writer."

There are many reasons for speaking in public. A public speaker may hope to teach an audience about new ideas, for example, or provide information-about some topic. Creating a good feeling or entertaining an audience may be another purpose. Public speakers, however, most often seek to persuade an audience to adopt new opinions, to take certain actions, or to see the world in a new way.
Public speakers usually know well in advance when they are scheduled to make an address. Consequently, they are able to prepare their message before they deliver it. Sometimes, though, speakers must deliver the message unprepared, or off the cuff, such as when they are asked to offer a toast at a wedding reception or to participate in a televised debate or interview.
When they do not have to speak unprepared, most speakers write their own speeches. Politicians and business executives sometimes employ professional writers who prepare their speeches for them. These professional writers may work alone or in small teams. Although the speaker may have some input into the contents of the speech, the writers sometimes have a great influence over the opinions expressed by their employers. Regardless of how a speech is prepared, the person who delivers it is given credit for its effect upon its hearers.
Public speaking is well known to the average people because______.
A.most of them have been trained as public speakers
B.such activities are prevalent in the society
C.most of them have to do it when they study at college
D.the passage does not mention the reason
I was reminded of that as I read Nicholas Delblanco’s Fathering, an often exasperating novel, because it is so needlessly obscure and reveals so much talent and so little disciplining of that talent.
The internal maundering of Delblanco's characters would probably interest a psychoanalyst, trained to decipher their significance as sign posts, But novelists should not write for the edification of psychoanalysts. Ostensibly reproducing the unorganized thoughts, memories and impressions flowing through a character's mind is not often the best way to make that character comprehensible.
Such thoughts, memories and impressions become chaotic. The job of the artist is to bring some order and meaning out of that chaos, not to compound it, and to clarify, not befog, the nature of the character.
According to the passage, what do many young novelists try to do?
A.They try to imitate Joyce's symbolism.
B.They try to influence Delblanco
C.They try to follow the example of Hemingway's simple plot.
D.They try pattern themselves after Joyce's complicated language.
