　　(2024·山東省濰坊市高考模擬考試)

　　Success is often measured by the ability to overcome

　　adversity.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 the age of 6.In her biography，she remembers

　　with great fondness when her good friend Sean，whom she met

　　in secondary school，became the first person to encourage her

　　and help 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 to be a writer.He was also the only person

　　who thought I was bound to be a success at it，which meant

　　much more to me than I ever told him at the time.”

　　Despite

　　many

　　setbacks，Rowling

　　persevered

　　in

　　her writing，particularly fantasy stories.But it wasn’t until 1990 that she first conceived the idea about Harry Potter.As she recalls，it was on a long train journey from London to Manchester that the idea of Harry Potter simply fell into her head.“To my immense frustration (沮喪)，I didn’t have a functioning pen with me，and I was too shy to ask anybody if I could borrow one.I think，now，that this was probably a good thing，because I simply sat and thought，for four (delayed train) hours，and all the details bubbled up in my brain，and this scrawny，black-haired，bespectacled (戴眼鏡的) boy who didn’t know he was a wizard became more and more real to me.”

　　That same year，her mother passed away after a ten-year battle with

　　multiple

　　sclerosis，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 clinical depression.Unemployed，she completed her first novel in area cafes，where she could get her daughter to fall asleep.After being rejected by 12 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 her commitment to writing that was fostered by the confidence of a friend!

　　1．Who believed J．K.Rowling was to be a good writer?

　　A．Her friend Sean.B．Her mother.

　　C．Her daughter.D．Her husband.

　　2．Rowling first came up with the idea about Harry Potter________.

　　A．at the age of 6B．on a train journey

　　C．after her mother’s death D．in her secondary school

　　3．She felt frustrated on the train because________.

　　A．her train was delayed for four hours

　　B．she didn’t have a pen with her

　　C．her mind suddenly went blank

　　D．no one would offer her help

　　4．It can be concluded from Paragraph 5 and 6 that Rowling is________.

　　A．open-minded

　　B．warm-hearted

　　C．good-naturedD．strong-willed

　　5．The text mainly tells us________.

　　A．hardship makes a good novelist

　　B．the courage to try is a special ability

　　C．you can have a wonderful idea everywhereD．encouragement contributes to one’s success課時作業(十三)
