1、Passage 2
Man has always wanted to fly. Some of the greatest men in history had thought about the problem. One of them, for example, was the great Italian artist, Leonardo Da Vinci. In the 16th century he made designs for machines that would fly, but they were never built.
Throughout history, other less famous men had wanted to fly. An example was a man in England 800 years ago. He made a pair of wings from chicken feathers. Then he fixed them to his body and jumped into air from a tall building. He did not fly very far. Instead, he fell to the ground and broke every bone of his body and rested in peace.
The first real step took place in France, in 1783. Two brothers, the Montgolfiers, made a very large ―hot air balloon‖. They knew that hot air rises. Why not fill a balloon with it? The balloon was made of cloth and paper. In September of that year, the King and Queen of France came to see the balloon. They watched it carry the very first air passengers into the sky. The passengers were a sheep and a chicken. We do not know how they felt about the trip. But we do know that the trip lasted eight minutes and that the animals landed safely. Two months later, two men did the same thing. They rose above Paris in a balloon of the same kind. Their trip lasted twenty-five minutes and they traveled about.2.Eight hundred years ago an Englishman( ).

1、Passage 16Many a young person tells me he wants to be a writer. I always encourage such people, but I
also explain that there‘s a big difference between ―being a writer‖, and writing. In most cases these
individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hours alone at a typewriter. ―You‘ve got to want to write,‖ I say to them, ―not want to be a writer.‖
The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair. For every writer kissed
by fortune, there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded. When I left a 20-year
career in the U.S. Coast Guard to become a freelance writer, I had no prospects at all. What I did
have was a friend who found me a place in a New York apartment building. It didn‘t even matter
that it was cold and had no bathroom. I immediately bought a used manual typewriter and felt like
a genuine writer.
After a year or so, however, I still hadn‘t gotten a break and began to doubt myself. It was so
hard to sell a story that barely made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write. I had dreamed
about it for years. I wasn‘t going to be one of those people who die wondering – what if I would
keep putting my dream to the last even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure.
This is the Shadowland of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.
