Ⅱ.阅读理解
A[2012·四川卷]
I left university with a good degree in English Literature, but no n of what I wanted to do. Over the next six years, I_was_treading_water,_just 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. I loved working with books, although the jo
b that I did was dull.
I had enough savings to take a year off work, and I decided to try to satisfy a deepdown wish to write a novel. Attending a Novel Writing MA cour gave me the structure I needed to write my first 55，000 words.
It takes confidence to make a new start－there's a dark period inbetween 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 Believing my novel could not be published, I put it aside.
The I met an agent(代理商)who said I should nd my novel out to agents. So, I did and, to my surpri, 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 cond half of the novel.
The next problem was finding a publisher. After twoandahalf years of no income, just waiti
ng 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—of fate, 90后电视剧really. When you t out to do something different, there's no end in sight, so to find mylf in a position where I now have my own name on a contract(合同)of the publisher—to be a published writer—is unbelievably rewarding(有回报的)．
