Task One Discovering the Main Ideas

1 Answer the following questions with the information contained in Text A.

1) According to Alex Haley, why does many a young man want to be a writer? Because they think that being a writer can bring them wealth and fame.

2) Does writing mean glory and wealth in the author’s opinion?

No. The author thinks that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair. Only a few can succeed after long periods of neglect and poverty.

3) What was the author’s life in Greenwich V illage like?

His life in Greenwich Village was very poor. He barely made enough to eat.

4) Did he ever doubt his ability to write? Why or why not?

Yes. Because he didn’t receive a break after writing for a year or so.

5) Why did the call from his old acquaintance change his life?

Because his doubt of his resolution to write was cleared. He was determined to keep on writing.

6) In what way did people like Delaney and Belafonte become role models for the author?

From them he learned that one had to make sacrifices and live creatively to keep working hard to realize one’s dreams.

7) How many years did the author keep on writing before his great success? He kept on writing for 17 years before his great success.

8) What did the two sardine cans and 18 cents in the brown paper bag symbolize?

They symbolized his courage and persistence to stick to his dream of writing.

9) What is the meaning of the Shadowland of dreams?

The Shadowland of dreams means all the difficulties (e.g. neglect, poverty, doubt, uncertainty, and fear of failure) people meet with in pursuing their dreams.

2 Text A can be divided into three parts with the paragraph number(s) of each part provided as follows. Write down the main idea of each part.

Part: One; Paragraph(s): 1-2; Main Idea: Alex Haley explains the difference between “being a writer” and “writing”.

Part: Two; Paragraph(s): 3–18; Main Idea: The author tells about his struggle to stick to his dream of writing and his final success.

Part: Three; Paragraph(s): 19-22; Main Idea: The author tells about his struggle to stick to his dream of writing and his final success.

Task Two Reading Between the Lines

Read the following sentences carefully and discuss in pairs what the author intends to say by the italicized parts.

1) For every writer kissed by fortune, there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded. (Para. 2)

Compared with those lucky writers who have become famous, thousands of people who devote themselves to writing are never given recognition as successful writers.

2) Next time I make a sale. (Para. 6)

Considering the rather difficult circumstances the author was in, it is easy to see that there was a degree of irony and self-sarcasm when he promised his friend that he would pay back the money next time he made a sale, for it was something that had not happened before and would not be very likely to happen in the near future, thus pushing the repayment of the debt into the remote future.

3) What’s more, I could write on the side. (Para. 8)

More importantly, I could take writing as a part-time job.

4) There’s everything you’ve made of yourself so far. (Para. 10)

The two cans of sardines and 18 cents are all you have.

5) Another Village neighbor was a handsome young singer who ran a struggling restaurant. (Para. 13)

… a restaurant that has few customers and is about to close down.

6) As I absorbed the lesson, I gradually began to sell my articles. (Para. 15) As I became aware of what it meant to live in the Shadowland, …

7) For the first time I had money and open doors everywhere. (Para. 18)… I had a lot of opportunities.

3.Many products for sale seem to scream at us, "Buy me! Buy me!" Advertising is a big busin ess in our world with many products competing for our attention. Think of the last time you boug ht clothes. You probably noticed the variety of colors, patterns, fabrics and brands you could choo se from. Which kind of soft drink would you like to have today or what kind of computer do you want? Advertisers are skilled in the art of making their products look the best to appeal to our se nses. But products aren't always what they seem. Sometimes advertising is deceptive and as cons umers ,we must be careful about what we choose to buy. It is important to learn to compare prod ucts and identify our purpose in purchasing the things we need. But the good thing about advertising is that it helps people to make decisions and refine thei r choices. In the United States, the Ad Council creates timely public service messages to the nation. Th eir purpose is to raise awareness of public problems that citizens can respond to. Inspiring ads ca use individuals to take action and even save lives. Pollution in America, for example has been red uced over the years because of the creative Public Service advertisements that the council provid es" Please, please don't be a litter bug, 'cause every 'litter bit' hurts." Many families have taught t heir children to place litter in the trash can in response to this catchy phrase, which has affected g enerations as each succeeding generation has taught their children not to litter. 4.Nature imposes difficult conditions upon the earth from time to time . The tornado and fo rest fire destroy natural resources ,homes and other structures ,and very often harm or kill peopl e . Technological tragedies happen with little or no warning as we see trains crash and airplanes f all from the sky shortly after take-off. As tragic as calamities are , they seem to bring out the best in human nature . people trained in em ergency care arrive at the scene and begin assisting the inj ured .Others come with equipment to remove debris. Men , women ,and young people willingly c ome to the scene of an accident , hoping to be of help in some way . These selfless acts of kindne ss make our world a better place . compassion eases the wounds of calamities. American Airlines flight number 587 crashed less than three minutes after taking off from JF K Airport in New York in November,2001. Witnesses s aw an engine fire develop on the plane’s nu mber one engine located under the left wing of the aircraft .seconds later ,the airliner crashed int o eight homes ,completely destroying four of them .All 260 people aboard the airplane were kille d along with six people at the crash site ,leaving many people to mourn the loss of their loved on es .the residents (people who live in the area of the crash ) rallied together to comfort those griev ing, while others removed bodies from the wreckage and did the necessary clean-up. 工程实施困难的条件下在地上的时候。龙卷风和森林火灾破坏自然资源,房屋和其他建筑物,和经常伤害或杀死人。技术的悲剧发生在很少或没有预警,因为我们看到火车事故,飞机起飞后不久就从天空坠落。一样悲惨的灾难,他们似乎显示出人性中最好的。在急诊受训的人到达现场并开始帮助受伤的人则跟设备清除残骸。男人,女人,和年轻人自愿来到事故现场,希望能有帮助。这些无私的善举让我们的世界变得更美好。同情减轻灾害的伤口。 美国航空公司587号航班坠毁不到三分钟后从纽约肯尼迪机场起飞,11月2001。目击者看到一个引擎火灾发展在飞机上的1号引擎位于下飞机的左翼,接着后,客机坠毁八家,完全摧毁了四个260名乘客的飞机遇难连同6人在事故现场,造成许多人悼念失去的亲人,居民(住在崩溃的面积)聚集在一起,安慰那些悲伤,而另一些人则从残骸,并把尸体移走必要的清理。 5.Success can be reached in different ways by people in different careers.
