Harlan Coben believes that if you’re a writer, you’ll find the time; and that if you can’t find the time, then writing isn’t a priority and you’re not a writer. For him, writing is a【C1】________job—a job like any other. He has【C2】________it with plumbing, pointing out that a plumber doesn’t wake up and say that he can’t work with pipes today.
【C3】________, like most writers these days, you’re holding down a job to pay the bills, it’s not【C4】________to find the time to write. But it’s not impossible. It requires determination and single-mindedness.【C5】________that most bestselling authors began writing when they were doing other things to earn a living. And today, even writers who are fairly【C6】________often have to do other work to【C7】________their writing income.
As Harlan Coben has suggested, it’s a【C8】________of priorities. To make writing a priority, you’ll have to 【C9】________some of your day-to-day activities and some things you really enjoy. Depending on your【C10】________ and your lifestyle, that might mean spending less time watching television or listening to music, though some people can write【C11】________they listen to music. You might have to【C12】________the amount of exercise or sport you do. You’ll have to make social media an【C13】________activity rather than a daily, time-consuming 【C14】________. There’ll probably have to be less socialising with your friends and less time with your family. It’s a【C15】________learning curve, and it won’t always make you popular.
There’s just one thing you should try to keep at least some time for,【C16】________your writing—and that’s reading. Any writer needs to read as much and as widely as they can; it’s the one【C17】________supporter— something you can’t do without.
Time is finite. The older you get, the【C18】________it seems to go. We need to use it as carefully and as 【C19】________as we can. That means prioritising our activities so that we spend most time on the things we really want to do. If you’re a writer, that means—【C20】________—writing.
【C4】
选项
A、enough
B、strange
C、wrong
D、easy
答案
D
解析
本题考查形容词辨析。本形容词是表语,主语是代词it,而这里作为形式主语的代词it指代的是本填空之后的不定式to find the time to write,即本句的真正主语是不定式to find the time to write,本形容词是对这个不定式进行修饰。考生把握本句与之后的原文句子之间是转折逻辑关系,很容易确定本题答案为D项easy(容易的),即“如果像现在的大多数作家一样,你要从事一份工作来支付账单(养家糊口),找时间写作并非易事。”A项enough(足够的)、B项strange(奇怪的)和C项wrong(错误的)表达的意思明显都与本题题意无关,予以排除,因此本题答案为选项D。
