  When I was fifteen, I announced in my English class that I was going to write my own books.Half the students sneered(冷笑), and the   1   nearly fell out of their chairs laughing.“Don't be silly, only   2   can become writers, ”the English teacher said, ”and you are getting a D this term.” I was so   3   that I burst into tears.

  That night I wrote a short   4   poem about broken dreams and mailed it to the newspaper.To my   5  , they published it and sent me two dollars.I was a published and   6   writer.I showed my teacher and fellow students.They   7  .”Just plain dumb luck.”the teacher said.I tasted   8  .I'd sold the first thing I'd ever written.That was more than any of them had done and if it was just dumb luck, that was   9   with me.

  During the next two years I sold dozens of   10  , letters, jokes and recipes.By the time I   11   from high school, with a C minus average, I had had many scrapbooks filled with my published work.I   12   mentioned my writing to my teachers, friends or my family again.They were dream killers and   13   people must choose between their friends and their dreams, they must always choose their   14  

  I had four children at the time, and the oldest was only four.I wrote what I felt.It   15   nine months, just like a pregnant woman.I mailed it without a self addressed and stamped   16   and without making a copy of the manuseript.

  A month later I received a(n)   17  , and a request to start working on another book.The worst year I earned two dollars.In my best year I earned 36, 000 dollars.  18   years I earned between five thousand and ten thousand.No, it isn't enough to live   19  , but it's still more than I'd make working part time, People ask what college I   20  , what degrees I had and what qualifications I have to be a writer.The answer is:“None.”I just write.I'm not a genius.

  New York-a team of engineers with expertise in high-rise design, collapse and blasts prevention will   1   why the damaged World Trade Center(WTC)buildings and part of the Pentagon broke into pieces after September 11's   2   attack, they will determine   3   future buildings can be designed to protect more lives   4   disasters.

  A   5   of well-known engineers and members of the American Society of Civil Engineers will begin analyzing videotapes and photographs of the attack and the   6   collapse of the two   7   towers as soon as the rescue efforts come to an end, W.Gene Corely, senior vice president of Construction Technologies Laboratories Ince, said.

  In addition to studying the crashes, the   8   and the collapses, the team will analyze modifications made at both sites-the World Trade Center's repair after the 1993 basement bombing there and the Pentagon's   9   renovation.

  The team also will analyze the size, speed and fuel load of the speeding jets and their   10   as they cut through the buildings.

  “From this, we   11   we will be able to determine some things that might be done differently if the building were designed to resist this type of attack and make some   12   related to   13   construction of buildings that might be subjected to this sort of attack, ”Corely said.

  The WTC towers built in the late 1960s and early 1970s, were designed to withstand the impact of a Boeing 707 jetliner.But those plans did not   l4   in the effect of the fuel explosion   15   created fireballs at the giant towers.

  Based   16   a preliminary review of the events, Corely said the WTC steel-framed towers collapsed not so much because of the impact but   17   the fire that followed.As the   18   from the fire rose, the steel weakened.

  Although the towers once were the tallest buildings   19  , their height was not a factor in their collapse, but the fire, Corely said.A shorter building,   20  , would likely have resulted in fewer deaths.

  The war against Iraq is a battle between Saddam Hussein and George W.Bush and his ally(盟友), Tony Blair.

  Saddam Hussein, 65, has set up   1   over the past 50 years.For   2   reasons, Saddam has several look-alikes.It’s believed that, since the mid-1990s, Saddam has become unreasonably   3   of being followed after many murderous attempts against him.

  When   4   talk about him, they use only nicknames(綽號)for fear of   5  .They refer to him as “uncle” or “the old man who talks too much”.

  Even though the allied forces   6   by the US drove Iraqi troops out of Kuwait in 1991’s Gulf War, Saddam’s now describing the Gulf War as a   7  

  George W.Bush, 56, is a man of strong   8   and little self-doubt qualities that have made him a   9   leader in the war on terrorism(恐怖主義).He has expressed a personal hatred for the Bush family’s long-time   10  , Saddam Hussein.He’s called the   11   part of an “ axis of evil(邪惡軸心).”

  Since September 11, he has   12   the world that “ you’re either with us, or you’re with the   13  .” The war against Iraq could finish what his   14   started in the 1991 Gulf War.

  Tony Blair, 49, is seen by some as George Bush’s foreign minister, or even his pet dog.He has little in   15   with Bush.While Bush is   16   for his mispronunciation and verbal slips(口誤), Blair is regarded as one of the better international speakers of the   17  .He ‘d never talk about his personal life as   18   as Bush does.He’s leading one of the great old working class parties of Europe, the Labour Party, whose   19   are very different from Bush’s.But now his political career depends on whether the war can be won   20   and with few casualties(傷亡)on both sides-and that depends largely on the US president.
