But, it is often the belief of others that gives us the courage to try.JK. Rowling, author of the Harry Potter book series, began writing at age 6. In her biography, she remembers with great fondness when her good friend, Sean, whom she met in secondary school, ecame the first person to encourage her and help build the confidence that one day she would be a very good writer.“He was the first person with whom I really discussed my serious ambition to be a writer. He was also the only person who thought I was bound to be a success at it, which meant much more to me than I ever told him at the time.”Despite many setbacks Rowling persevered in her writing, particularly fantasy stories. But it wasnt until 1990 that she first formed the idea about Harry Potter. As she recalls, it was on a long train journey from London to Manchester when “the idea of Harry Potter simply fell into my head. To my immense frustration, I didnt have a functioning pen with me, and I was too shy to ask anybody if I could borrow one. I think, now, that this was probably a good thing, because I simply sat and thought, for four (delayed train) hours, and all the details bubbled up in my brain, and this skinny, blackhaired, bespectacled (戴眼镜的) boy who didnt know he was a wizard became more and more real to me.”That same year, her mother passed away after a tenyear battle with multiple sclerosis (硬化症), which deeply affected her writing. She went on to marry and had a daughter, but separated from her husband shortly afterwards.During this time, Rowling was diagnosed with clinical depression. Unemployed, she completed her first novel in area cafes, where she could get her daughter to fall asleep. After being rejected by 12 publishing houses, the first Harry Potter novel was sold to a small British publishing house. Now with seven books that have sold nearly 400 million copies in 64 languages, JK. Rowling is the highest earning novelist in history. And it all began with her commitment to writing that was promoted by the confidence of a friend!语篇解读：本文讲述了J.K. Rowling在朋友的鼓励下，勇敢面对各种挫折，坚持自己的文学写作梦想，最终获得了成功，从另一方面也说明了别人对自己的信心和鼓励在一定程度上起着重要的作用。1Who believed JK. Rowling was to be a good writer?AHer friend Sean.BHer mother.CHer daughter.

He spends 28 years on an island near Venezuela. The book tells the story of everything that happens to Robinson Crusoe. He hopes someone will rescue him, but he has been there for so long on his own that he also begins to fear being rescued.Robinson Crusoe was published in 1719. Most experts believe the story is based on the life of Alexander Selkirk, who was a Scottish sailor. On an expedition (探险) in 1704, Selkirk had an argument with his ships captain. Selkirk thought the ship was not safe and was about to fall apart.When the ship stopped at a remote island to get fresh water, Selkirk got off. He tried to get the other crew members to leave with him, but nobody would. The ship then sailed away without him. Selkirk spent four years and four months on his own on the island, known as Aguas Buenas.Selkirk was finally rescued by a ship that visited the island in 1709. The ships captain was grateful to Selkirk because he provided food for the crew when they arrived.Now archaeologists think they have found the remains of Selkirks camp on Aguas Buenas. They found two deep holes that would have held wooden posts. The archaeologists say this is evidence that Selkirk built a shelter there. The post holes are near a fresh water stream. They are located quite high up, which would have meant that Selkirk was able to watch out for the ships coming close to the island.The most interesting evidence, the archaeologists say, is part of a piece of equipment used by sailors to navigate (导航). Historians believe Selkirk was a navigator, so the instrument could have belonged to him.Robinson Crusoe was published ten years after Selkirk was rescued. Most experts think Daniel Defoe heard and read stories about Selkirk, which inspired him to write the book.语篇解读：本文主要讲述了世界名著鲁滨逊漂流记的故事原型。5Why did Selkirk choose to land on the remote island?ABecause he had quarrels with the crew members.BBecause the captain ordered him to get fresh water.CBecause he wanted to go on an adventure there.DBecause he thought the ship he was on was in danger.解析：选D细节理解题。根据第二段的最后一句“Selkirk thought the ship was not safe and was about to fall apart”可知，Selkirk认为他乘坐的船不安全，所以就中途下了船，来到了一个偏远的小岛上。6We can infer from the text that the ship that visited Aguas Buenas in 1709 _.Alost its way while sailingBlacked fresh water upon arrivalCwas being navigated by SelkirkDwas running out of food upon arrival解析：选D推理判断题。根据第四段的第二句“The ships captain was grateful to Selkirk because he provided food for the crew when they arrived”可推知，1709年来到Aguas Buenas的这艘船缺食物，所以对Selkirk提供食物很是感激。7How could Selkirk see ships that might rescue him, according to archaeologists?ABy asking the crew members on the ships.BBy sending messages to the ships captains.CBy watching from his shelter high on the island.DBy using a piece of equipment used to navigate.解析：选C细节理解题。根据第五段中的“The archaeologists say this is evidence that Selkirk built a shelter there .
