university with a good degree in english literature, but no sense of what i wanted to do. over the next six years, i was treading(在.上面走) water, just trying to earn an income. i tried journalism, but i didnt 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 job that i did was dull. i had enough savings to take a year off work, and i decided to try to satisfy a deep-down wish to write a novel. attending a novel writing ma course gave me the structure i needed to write my first 55,000 words. it takes confidence to make a new start heres a dark period in-between where youre neither one thing nor the other. youre out for dinner and people ask what you do, and youre too ashamed to say, “well, im writing a novel, but im not quite sure if im going to get there.” my confidence dived. believing my novel could not be published, i put it aside. then i met an agent（代理商）who said i should send my novel out to agents. so, i did and, to my surprise, 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 second half of the novel. the next problem was finding a publisher. after two-and-a-half years of no income, just waiting 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, really. when you set out to do something different, theres no end in sight, so to find myself 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）.60. the author decided to write a novel _ .a. to finish the writing course b. to realize her own dreamc. to satisfy readers wish d. to earn more money61. how did the writer feel halfway with the novel?a. disturbed. b. ashamed. c. confident. d. uncertain.62. what does the author mainly want to tell readers in the last paragraph?a. it pays to stick to ones goal.b. hard work can lead to success.c. she feels like being unexpectedly lucky.d. there is no end in sight when starting to do something.参考答案-b da *结束( b )parents are a childs first teachers. but some parents never learned from good examples. in new york city, a nonprofit agency called covenant house tries to help homeless young mothers become good parents.the twelve or so teenagers who live at the shelter attend parenting classes four days a week. the class is called mommy and me. teacher delores clemens is a mother of five and a grandmother. she teaches basic skills, like how to give a baby a bath and how to dress a baby depending on the season.she remembers one student who learned from her mother not to pick up a crying baby. the mother said that would only make the child needy and overly demanding. delores clemens says, “thats not true. you have to hold your baby! he is crying for a reason. if you never pick him up, hes going to keep crying. pick your baby up. cuddle your baby. hug him! and she started to do that. they just want a little cuddling and a little love. and it works!”delores clemens says her students also learn how to be good mothers by letting themselves be mothered. around three hundred fifty teenage mothers graduate from covenant houses mommy and me class every year.in class, with her baby son is natashashe lived on the streets. she is glad not only for the warmth and shelter of covenant house. as she told reporter adam phillips, she is also glad for the help they offer in seeking a more secure life.the world health organization says the united states has forty-one births for every one thousand girls age fifteen to nineteen. that is higher
