cp: im definitely influenced by authors who have a fairly inventive use of language, imaginative worlds and a sense of wonder-authors who write about things that other people dont. reporter: what was the hardest thing about writing eragon? cp: probably the editing because i wasnt used to it. it was a kind of shock doing it. but also i was having to learn a huge amount about grammar and commas and other things id never paid much attention to before. id say that editing and writing are pretty much equal in difficulty. my raw writing is a lot more professional now than it ever was before because of everything i learned through the editing process. reporter: how do you avoid becoming frustrated with the writing process? cp: write about what you enjoy the most or what touches you the most; otherwise youll never be able to survive a book-length project. reporter: anything else youd like to share with our readers? cp: before i wrote eragon, i spent an entire month plotting out the entire story so i wasnt writing blindly. that helps. i really poured my heart and soul into it. its not just an adventure story: it is about eragon trying to work out who we are, why we are here and how we can live honorably.（3)what does paolini find as difficult as writing?aplotting out the story.bgrammar and commas.cthe editing process.dthe creative use of language.(4)which of the following best indicates paolini devoted himself completely to writing eragon?awrite about what you enjoy the most or what touches you the most.beragon was an attempt to see what i could do with the idea myself.ci spent an entire month plotting out the entire story.di really poured my heart and soul into it.【解析】 19岁的 christopher paolini 一直喜欢历险故事，15岁时就构思了他的第一本书 eragon，该书出版后的销量超过了大部分 harry potter 系列图书，本文再现了一位记者对 christopher 的采访。 (1)b 本题考查推理判断。根据 christopher paolini 对记者第一个问题的回答可知采访人询问的问题是“什么激发他创作了 eragon 这部作品？”。故选b项。(2)b 本题考查代词指代。根据上下文内容可知 that 指代的是上句中提到的 the sense of awe and wonder。(3)c 本题考查细节理解。根据cp对记者第三个问题的回答 id say that editing and writing are pretty much equal in difficulty 可知本题的答案是c。(4)d 本题考查细节理解。选项a说明的是写作内容，b项说明的是创作作品的目的，c项说明的是写作之前的构思所花的时间，这三项都不能说明 paolini 创作时的全身心投入，d项很显然符合题意。*结束honesty comes in many forms. first theres self-honesty. is what people see the real article or doyou appear through smoke and mirrors? i find that if i try to be something im not. i feel unsure of myself and take out a part from my pba(personal bank account). i love how singer judy garland put it. “always be a first-class version(版本) of yourself, instead of a second-class version of somebody else. ” then theres honesty in our actions. are you honest at school, with your parents, and with your boss? if youve ever been dishonest, i think we all have, try being honest, and notice how whole it makes you feel. remember, you cant do wrong and feel right. this story by jeff is a good example of that in my second year of study, there were three kids in my math class who didnt do well. i was really good at it. i would charge them three dollars for each test that i helped them pass. id write on a little piece of paper all the right answers, and hand them off. at first i felt like i was making money, kind of a nice job. i wasnt thinking about how it could hurt all of us. after a while i realized i shouldnt do that any more, because i wasnt really helping them. they werent learning anything, and it would only get harder down the road. cheating certainly wasnt helping me.it takes courage to be honest when people all around you are getting away with cheating on tests, lying to their parents, and steal
