              You feel strange about it，but characters in novels don't always do what the writer wants them to do．Sometimes they cause trouble，take on lives of their own，or even work against the writer．It's not just a problem for inexperienced authors：famed children's novelist Roald Dahl said he got the main character in his book Matilda so"wrong"that when he'd finished his first version，he threw it away and started again．
              Of course it's not the characters'fault．The problem lies with the author，who often creates works according his own experiences．Take Stephen King，who admitted that it is more difficult for him to write characters like Carrie nowadays because his own circumstances have changed．"It is definitely harder，"King said，"When I wrote Carrie many years ago．I was only one step away from physical labor．"
              This is also true for characters'ages，added King．"When you have small children，I t is easy to write young characters because you observe them and you have them in your life all the time．But your kids grow up．It's been harden for me to write about this little 12-year-old girl in my new book because my models are gone．"
              For other authors，such as Karen Fowler，there's one quality that can stop a character in its tracks：boredom．"I had particular problems with the main character in my historical novel Sister Noon，"she says．"She had attitudes about race and religion that seemed appropriate to me for here time and class，but they were not attitudes I liked．Eventually I grew quite bored with her．You can write a book about a character you dislike or a character you disagree with，but I don't think you can write a book about a character who bores you．"
              According to Neel Mukherjee，it was Adinath，a character in The Lives of Others，who made him work the hardest．"I think struggled because it's difficult to write a character whose most prominent personal feature is weakness，as Adinath's is，without making that feature define him，"Mukherjee says．But a troublesome character is far from an unwelcome guest，he continues，arguing that"when characters work against the author they come alive and become unpredictable．""That sometimes happens，"Mukherjee says，"I celebrate it．"

              (1) What can we infer about Stephen King's book Carrie？ ______
              A. It was his most difficult book to write．
              B. It was the first successful novel King wrote．
              C. There were few children featured in the story．
              D. Some of its main characters were working class．
              (2) Why did Karen Fowler have trouble writing the main character in her novel Sister Noon？ ______
              A. She disagreed with the character's attitudes．
              B. The age difference between the two was too large．
              C. She found the character very uninteresting．
              D. The historical setting made accuracy difficult．
              (3) What does Neel Mukherjee think of h is difficult-to-write characters？ ______
              A. They bear the personal feature of weakness．
              B. They are what the author treasures in writing．
              C. They are often troublesome and unwelcome．
              D. They are unpredictable and hard to define．

              University can be the most sociable time of your life．For most students，social media is the glue that holds packed social diaries together．Facebook will let you know if a game is cancelled，Twitter can promote your DJ set in 140 characters，and your Instagram account will remind you when there are new photos．
              These tools have made the world increasingly connected，and most students wouldn't consider shunning them at such a sociable stage of their lives．But social media is by no means a requirement at university，and many do without．
              "I'm a private person and don't feel the need to share everything with everybody I know，"says Caty Forster，20，a student at the University of Manchester，who has never used Facebook or Twitter．Despite social media's benefits，Forster is largely indifferent．Bethany Elgood，25，stopped using Facebook after she discovered she had developed a bit of an anxiety towards the social media platforms that contain lots of personal details．"
              I quit Facebook when I was 13．I left because，not only was I bored of passively involved in its Newsfeed，I was also experiencing anxiety．To me，Facebook meant clicking and nosing around people's lives．
              People would ask，"How do you keep in touch with people？"and"Won't you miss out anything important？"I was in agreement with Forster，who says，"I never feel like I'm missing out too much．I don't feel like I'd have anything valuable to share or gain from it．"
              Adrienne Jolly，a careers advisor at UEA，says，"It's hard to prove reliable statistics on social media．But it's generally accepted that social media networks are pretty influential in this process-for better or worse．"
              You might decide quitting social media isn't practical in the long run．However，if its ugly side is bringing you down，why not consider taking leave？By doing so，I gained confidence and a strong connection with reality．

              The world is filled with smart，talented and gifted people．We meet them every day．A few days ago，my car was not running well．I pulled it into a garage，and the young mechanic had it fixed in just a few minutes．He knew what was wrong by simply listening to the engine．I was amazed．The sad truth is，great talent is not enough．

              I am constantly shocked at how little talented people earn．I heard the other day that less than 5 percent of Americans earn more than $100，000 ayear．A business consultant who specializes in the medical trade was telling me how many doctors and dentists struggle financially．It was this business consultant who gave me the phrase，“They are one skill away from great wealth．”

              There is an old saying that goes，“Job means ‘just over broke”．And unfortunately，I would say that the saying applies to millions of people．Because school does not think financial intelligence is intelligence，most workers“ live within their means”．They work and they pay the bills．Instead I recommend young people to seek work for what they will learn，more than what they will earn．

              When I ask the classes I teach，“How many of you can cook a better hamburger than McDonald’s?” almost all the students raise their hands．I then ask，“So if most of you can cook a better hamburger，how come McDonald’s makes more money than you?” The answer is obvious: McDonald’s is excellent at business systems．The reason why so many talented people are poor is that they focus on building a better hamburger and know little or nothing about business systems．The world is filled with talented poor people．They focus on perfecting their skills at building a better hamburger rather than the skills of selling and delivering the hamburger．

              （A）

                     I remember the first time that I was extremely happy. I was about 8 years old when for the first time, there was a computer in the classroom. I remember that my teacher allowed each student to take turns to play various educational games on the computer. One day, I found the source code(编码) for one of these games. Without knowing or being taught any programming language, I was able to figure out some of the BASIC code. I just gave myself an infinite number of lives in the game, so I could continue playing it forever. This was also my first introduction to code, and I didn’t even know it at the time. This was a decisive moment in my life. I was quite excited because of what I was learning and what I was able to do. As a result, I was enthusiastic for the rest of my life about self learning and computers, and I was quite happy doing them too.

                     I’ve noticed that people who are truly content with life are enthusiastic about what they do. This enthusiasm, along with good health, is the key to being happy. It also leads to self-confidence and content in life too. It may also lead to success, wealth, and achievements.

                    Success, wealth, or achievements can also bring some people happiness, yet I know plenty of rich people who are unhappy. I know many people with successful businesses that are not happy with what they are doing. I know people who continuously buy themselves new toys, such as cars, computers, and televisions, yet never seem content for too long. Please remember, happiness is the journey of life, not the destination.

              It was Sunday morning．I heard loud noises of moving furniture in the next room．I could almost feel the excitement of John who was soon going to get a room of his own．I knew how much he longed for his right to privacy when he was sharing a room with his younger brother，Robot．He said，"Mum，Can I have a room of my own？I could use Jeff's．He won't mind．"
              It was true that Jeff had graduated from college and flown from the nest．But would he mind？The room was the place where I told him a thousand stories and we had a thousand talks．As close as we were，though，the time came when Jeff needed a door between us．His life was spreading into areas that had less to do with family．I no longer could-or-should know everything about him．
              It turned out that getting Jeff's permission was easy．He said，"Of course，Mum，it would be selfish of me to hold on to it．"Then his voice softened，"Mum，I won't be living at home again-you know that．"Behind his glasses，his eyes were lit with all the love．There were no doors closed here-they had all opened up again．
              As John and I were cleaning the room，I fixed my eyes on Jeff's things around me and could almost touch the little boy I knew was gone forever．I looked at the room and，in my heart，I let it go．To hold on would be，as Jeff said，selfish．Now it was time for John，shouldering through the door，his eyes bright with promise of independence，to disappear behind the door．It was time for letting go to happen again．

              D. Jeff refused to let his brother have his room．
              (3) How did the author feel about her children's sense of independence？ ______
              A. Delighted． B. Jealous． C. Mixed． D. Embarrassed．

              B. all her three kids made the author feel depressed

              D. the author loved and missed the time together with her kids．
