阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式,并将答案填写在答题卡相应的位置上。
Tracy Wong is a well-known Chinese-American writer. But her writing skill was something she picked 1. by herself. She became a part-time writer for IBM after 2.(graduate) from college. Then, writing stories was 3.(simple)a personal interest. Tracy sent three of her stories to a publisher. 4.(interest), they immediately suggested that she put them together 5.(make)a single one long story and paid Tracy $ 50, 000 in advance, which was a pretty money for an unknown writer.
Even though Tracy’s 6.(character) are interesting, her stories sometimes leave readers uneasy: those about the supernatural. “My mother believed I could connect with the afterlife world,” she told a close friend. “She used to have me speak with my grandmother, 7. died many years ago.”
“Can I? I don’t think I can,” Tracy said with a laugh. “But I do have moments when things come to me for no reason.” Once, she 8.(wonder) how to complete a scene set in ancient China when the doorbell suddenly rang. It was a FedEx delivery man, with a copy of a book on Chinese history. 9. came without her having ordered it!
Though she has published 10 books, Tracy has remained unchanged by her fame. She lives in the same way she lived 27 years ago — although in a 10.(big) house. There’s more room for joy in her life — and it wasn’t just writing.
