答案

小题1:D

小题2:A

小题3:B

小题4:E

小题5:C

小题1:根据前面许多人告诉我说他想成为一位作家,但是我想他们解释作家和写作有很大的不同,所以后面提到在打字机旁不能待很长时间,所以选D

小题2:有前面一句The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poorly-paid affair.说现实是写作是孤独的、私人的、低收入的事,所以接下来写作家怎么样,所以选A

小题3:前面说坐着离开工作了20年的地方想成为一名作家,那时对他来说,什么都没有,他所拥有的是发现了他的朋友,所以选B

小题4:前面说他丢掉工作,并且写作收入低,所以他所挣得钱不够填满肚子,所以选E

小题5:虽然作者收入很低,甚至他所挣得钱不够填满肚子,但他仍然坚持,最后成为一名作家,所以他说只要有一点希望,怀有们想的任何人必须学会生活在那,所以选C

点评:本文主要讲述了想成为一名作家,作家和写作的区别,只要坚持梦想就会实现。在答题中,应首先略读一下短文,了解一下短文的大致意思,然后把几个选项含义理解透,尤其注意意思相近,表达有交叉的选项之间的区别。然后再细读短文,把答案填入合适位置。答题时可以把含义相近的几个选项轮流填入同一处位置,反复阅读,反复体会,找出最佳选项,对于实在没有把握的小题可以留待最后完成。完成短文后,再认真通读一遍全文,看看上下语意是否通顺,是否符合逻辑关系。
