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.
【C13】
选项
A、intelligent
B、occasional
C、intensive
D、emotional
答案
B
解析
本题考查形容词辨析并且可以利用关联结构解题。本形容词与其被修饰成分名词activity一起作make social media的补语,同时本填空处于一个由表达转折对立逻辑关系的连接词rather than引导的关联结构中,既然此关联结构由表达转折对立逻辑关系的连接词rather than引导,则前后的信息必然是对立转折的关系,这样本形容词与之后的已知形容词daily,time-consuming也必须是对立转折的关系。Daily,time-consuming表示“日常的、耗费时间的”,则本填空的形容词必须是反义的,考生据此在四个选项中直接判定答案为B项occasional(偶尔的),这里的occasional(偶尔的)就是“频率低,耗费时间少”的意思,是四个选项中唯一能和daily,time-consuming构成转折对立关系的形容词,并且完全符合题意,因此本题答案为选项B。
