When people ask me how I started writing, I find myself describing an urgent need that I felt to work with
language. Having said that, I did not know for a long time what I was looking for. It was not until I followed this
feeling to its source that I discovered I had a passion for writing. With some encouragement from my colleagues, I
had one of my poems published. This bit of success, however, was the point where my problem began.
Back in 1978, I had to travel between three different campuses in the morning, teaching freshman
composition. Afternoons I spent taking my daughter to her ballet and horse-riding lessons. I composed my lectures
on the way, and that was all the thinking time I had. When I returned home, there was not enough of me left for
writing after a full working day.
As a way out, I decided to get up two hours before my usual time. My alarm was set for 5:00 A.M. The first
day I shut it off because I had placed it within arm's reach. The second day I set two clocks, one on my night table,
and one out in the hallway. I had to jump out of bed and run to silence it before my family was awoken. This was
when my morning writing began.
Since that first morning in 1978, I have been following the habit to this day, not making or accepting many
excuses for not writing. I wrote my poems in this manner for nearly ten years before my first book was published.
When I decided to write a novel, I divided my two hours: the first for poetry, the second for fiction. Well or badly, I
wrote at least two pages a day. This is how my novel, The Line of the Sun. was finished. If I had waited to have the
time, I would still be waiting to write my novel.
What I got out of getting up in the dark to work is the feeling that I am in control. For many people, the initial
sense of urgency to create easily dies away because it requires making the tough decision: taking the time to create,
stealing it from yourself if ifs the only way.

A. Her strong wish to share. B. Her keen interest in writing.
C. Her urgent need to make a living. D. Her passionate desire for fame.
5. Why did the author place an alarm clock in the hallway?
A. In case the clock in her room broke down. B. In case she failed to hear the ringing.
C. To force herself out of bed. D. To wake up her family.
6. How did the author manage to finish her novel?
A. By sticking to writing every morning. B. By writing when her mind was most active.
C. By drawing inspirations from classic novels. D. By reducing her teaching hours at school.
7. What can we learn from the author's success in her writing career?
A. It is never too late to change your job. B. Imaginative ideas die away if not taken in time.
C. A tight schedule is no excuse for lack of action. D. Daily life provides ideas for creative writing.
C
Artificial intelligence (AI) plays an important role in the Asian Games Hangzhou 2022 and Asian Para Games.
These terms might sound familiar, but how smart are they when applied to the 56 Asian Games venues (场地)?
Their smartness can be found in running the venues with less human labor forces. At the Huanglong Sports
Center, a system called Smart Stadium Brain is built. A 25 square meter high definition screen lays in the venue’s
information center, which guarantees a friendly environment for the athletes and audiences. A small screen on each
seat is designed to be at the audience’s service. By finger touching, the audience can control it conveniently to
watch and keep contact with the event. What’s more, supported by the 5 G technology.
AI also means further protection on environment. At the Fuyang sports Center, although it has been raining for
days, the roof of the venue still remains dry. And the secret lies in its attractive sky garden. The garden, is not only
eye-catching but also useful. It allows the greening rate of the entire stadium to reach as high as 45%, being energy-
saving. Under the cobblestones ( 鹅卵石) , a recovery system is filtering ( 过滤) and collecting rainwater for the
venue’s water system, and irrigation water.
8. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “guarantee” in Para2?
A. Make sure of. B. Take advantage of. C. Get used to. D. Adapt to.
9. What can we learn from Para2?
A. Their smartness of AI will replace workers
