But it is often the belief of others that gives us the courage to try. J. K. Rowling, author of the Harry Potter book series, began writing at

16、 age 6. In her biography（传记）, she remembers with great fondness when her good friend-Sean became the first person to encourage her and help her 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（志向） to be a wri

17、ter. He was also the only person who thought I was bound to（注定）be a success at it, which meant much more to me than I ever told him at the time.” Though there were many difficulties, Rowling continued her writing, particularly fantasy stories. But it wasnt until l990 that she first came up with the

18、idea about Harry Potter. As she recalls（回忆）, it was on a long train journey from London to Manchester that “the idea of Harry Potter simply fell into my head. To my great disappointment, I didnt have a pen with me, and I was too shy to ask anybody if I could borrow one. I think, now, that this was p

19、robably a good thing, because I simply sat and thought, for four (delayed train) hours, and all the details came up in my brain, and this thin, black-haired, 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 died after a ten-year fight

20、with serious diseases, 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 depression（诊断患有抑郁症）. Unemployed, she finished her first novel in area cafes, where she could get her daug

21、hter to fall asleep. After being refused by l2 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, J. K. Rowling is the highest earning novelist in history. And it all began with

22、her friends encouragement as well as her ambition to write.26 .Who believed J. K. Rowling was to be a good writer?AHer friend Sean.BHer mother. CHer daughter. DHer husband.27.

24、rong-willed30. The text mainly tells us_.Aadversity makes a good novelist Bthe courage to try is a special abilityCyou can have a wonderful idea everywhere Dencouragement helps one succeedCMost people say “yes” much more readily than “no”. A friend is moving house this weekend and would like some he

25、lp, and you agree. But, what you really wanted was a couple of quiet days relaxing at home. Or a roommate spends the entire weekends playing video games and wants to borrow your homework for “reference”. But, youve just finished it after taking a whole day to work hard. Many people say “yes” to thes

26、e kinds of requests. They tend not to consider their own interests and feelings, and are often angry with themselves afterwards. Saying “no” requires courage and considerable practice, in fact, according to psychologists. “Everyone wants to be liked,” says Gabriele Steinki, a German psychologist. “S

27、aying no risks losing the affection of the person asking the favor or even ajob.” The result is that many people say “yes” just for keeping the peace. But experts say this is regrettable. Anyone should have the right to say “no”. In fact, rejecting a request can even help to strengthen a relationshi

28、p because it expresses a true feeling. But, for people used to agreeing to every request, changing can be a long and uncomfortable learning process. Most people believe that “If I say no, Ill lose the affection of the person. But the affection is important to me.” This way of thinking can be replace

29、d by this: “If he only likes me because I always do what suits him , then the price ofhisaffection is too high in the long term.”Steinki says the key is talking to the other person to find a mutual (相互的) solution.“One needs to present the situationfromones own point of view, and to suggest how the s

30、ituation can be dealt with to the advantage of both parties. The other person must have the feeling thathisinterests are being considered.” When the refusal is not accepted, Steinki advises giving the reasons calmly again until the person gets the message.31.
