6、treading water, just trying to earn an income. I tried journalism, but I didnt think I was any good, then finance, which I hated. Finally, I got a job as a rights assistant at a famous publisher. I loved working with books, although the job that I did was dull.I had enough savings to take a year off

7、 work, and I decided to try to satisfy a deep-down wish to write a novel. Attending a Novel Writing MA course gave me the structure I needed to write my first 55,000 words.It takes confidence to make a new start theres a dark period in-between where youre neither one thing nor the other. Youre out f

8、or dinner and people ask what you do, and youre too ashamed to say, “Well, Im writing a novel, but Im not quite sure if Im going to get there.” My confidence dived. Believing my novel could not be published, I put it aside.Then I met an agent（代理商）who said I should send my novel out to agents. So, I

9、did and, to my surprise, got some wonderful feedback. I felt a little hope that I might actually become a published writer and, after signing with an agent, I finished the second half of the novel.The next problem was finding a publisher. After two-and-a-half years of no income, just waiting and won

10、dering, a publisher offered me a book deal - that publisher turned out to be the one I once worked for.It feels like an unbelievable stroke of luck -of fate, really.

14、light passes through a window. These animals typically live between the surface of the ocean and a depth of about 3,300 feet-as far as most light can reach. Most of them are extremely delicate and can be damaged by a simple touch. Sonke Johnsen, a scientist in biology, says, “These animals live thro

15、ugh their life alone. They never touch anything unless theyre eating it, or unless something is eating them.”And they are as clear as glass. How does an animal become see-through? It s trickier than you might think.The objects around you are visible because they interact with light. Light typically

16、travels in a straight line. But some materials slow and scatter (散射) light, bouncing it away from its original path. Others absorb light, stopping it dead in its tracks. Both scattering and absorption make an object look different from other objects around it, so you can see it easily.But a transpar

17、ent object doesnt absorb or scatter light, at least not very much. Light can pass through it without bending or stopping. That means a transparent object doesnt look very different from the surrounding air or water. You dont see it you see the things behind it.- 5 -To become transparent, an animal n

18、eeds to keep its body from absorbing or scattering light. Living materials can stop light because they contain pigments (色素) that absorb specific colors of light. But a transparent animal doesnt have pigments, so its tissues wont absorb light. According to Johnsen, avoiding absorption is actually ea

19、sy. The real challenge is preventing light from scattering.Animals are built of many different materials-skin, fat, and more-and light moves through each at a different speed. Every time light moves into a material with a new speed, it bends and scatters. Transparent animals use different tricks to

20、fight scattering. Some animals are simply very small or extremely flat. Without much tissue to scatter light, it is easier to be see-through. Others build a large, clear mass of non-living jelly-like (果冻状的) material and spread themselves over it.Larger transparent animals have the biggest challenge,

21、 because they have to make all the different tissues in their bodies slow down light exactly as much as water does. They need to look uniform. But how theyre doing it is still unknown. One thing is clear: for these larger animals, staying transparent is an active process. When they die, they turn a

22、non-transparent milky white.29. According to Paragraph 1,transparent animals .A. stay in groups B. can be easily damagedC. appear only in deep ocean D. are beautiful creatures30. The underlined word “dead” in Paragraph 3 means .A. silently B. gradually C. regularly D. completely31. One way for an an

23、imal to become transparent is to .A. change the direction of light travel B. gather materials to scatter lightC. avoid the absorption of light D. grow bigger to stop light32. The last paragraph tells us that larger transparent animals .A. move more slowly in deep waterB. stay see-through even after

24、deathC. produce more tissues for their survival- 6 -D. take effective action to reduce light spreadingDHaving a learning disability doesnt mean you cant learn, but youll need some help and need to work extra hard. If you have a learning disability such as dyslexia or dyscalculia, remember that you a

25、re not slow or stupid.Learning disabilities can be genetic. That means they can be passed down in families through the genes, But kids today have an advantage over their parents. Learning experts now know a lot more about the brain and how learning works, and its easier for kids to get the help they

26、 need.Dyslexia is a learning disability that means a kid has a lot of trouble reading and writing. Kids who have trouble with math may have dyscalculia. Other kids may have language disorders, meaning they have trouble understanding language and understanding what they read.It can be confusing, thou

27、gh. What qualifies as “trouble“ enough to be diagnosed as a learning disability? Reading, doing math, and writing letters may be tough for lots of kids at first. But when those troubles dont fade away and its really difficult to make any progress, its possible that the kid has a learning disability.

28、Finding out you have a learning disability can be upsetting. You might feel different from everyone else. But the truth is that learning disabilities are pretty common. And if your learning specialist or psychologist has figured out which one youre facing, youre on the right track. Now, you can star

29、t getting the help you need to do better in school.But for this special help to really work, youll need to practice the new skills youre learning. It may take a lot of efforts every day. That can be a challenge, but you can do it soon, youll enjoy the results of all your hard work: more fun and succ
