【本文要點】文章敘述了作者從英語文學專業畢業之后，幾經周折，最終幸運地找到自己喜

愛的寫書這門職業的事情。

49.C推理判斷題。根據前后文“butnosenseofwhatIwantedtodo"“justtryingtoearnan

income.Itriedjournalism,...thenfinance,whichIhated.Finally,Igotajob…”可知作者對于找

怎樣的一份適合自己的工作這件事漫無目的。故選C。

50.B細節理解題。根據第二段話“Idecidedtotrytosatisfyadeep-downwishtowriteanovel”

可知作者決定寫小說的目的只是滿足自己內心深處的愿望，實現自己的夢想。故答案為B。

51.D推理判斷題。根據文章第三段話“Ittakesconfidencetomakeanewstart""My

confidencedived”"Believingmynovelcouldnotbepublished,Iputitaside”及本段敘述了作

者回答別人問題時提到'Tmwritinganovel,butTmnotquitesureifI'mgoingtogetthere”可

知，此時他的感覺應該是還不完全確定他現在是否還要繼續寫他的小說。故答案選D°

52.A推理判斷題。本段作者表達他剛剛開始時“there飛noendinsight"到后來的"an

unbelievablestrokeofluck""tobeapublishedwriter—isunbelievablyrewarding（有回報

的）”是想要告訴讀者，堅持自己的目標是值得的，總會碰到運氣的降臨。B項“刻苦努力

是成功之路”，不符合文章意思。C、D項停留于文章表面意思。故答案為A。
