Success is often measured by the ability to overcome adversity(逆境).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 age 6.In
her biography(传记),she remembers with great fondness when her good friend—Sean
became the first person to encourage her and help her 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(志
向) to be a writer. He was also the only person who thought I was bound to(注定)be
a success at it,which meant much more to me than I ever told him at the time.”
Though there were many difficulties,Rowling continued her writing,particularly
fantasy stories. But it wasn't until 1990 that she first came up with the idea about
Harry Potter.As she recalls(回忆),it was on a long train journey from London to
Manchester that “the idea of Harry Potter simply fell into my head. To my great
disappointment,I didn't have a 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 came
up in my brain,and this thin,blackhaired,bespectacled(戴眼镜的) boy who didn't
know he was a wizard became more and more real to me.”
That same year,her mother died after a tenyear fight with serious diseases,
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 depression. Unemployed,she finished
her first novel in area cafes,where she could get her daughter to fall asleep. After
being refused 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
friend's encouragement as well as her ambition to write.

From my earliest memories,I felt as if my mother was preparing me for something
special. When entering a room,her entire focus was on me. I felt as if I was the
center of her universe—a great feeling. Offering her the same respect,I intently
listened to her stories without interrupting;I tried to return that feeling of being
truly loved.
Even though there was always deep affection flowing between us,she wasn't a
softy. She worked hard and expected her children to do the same. I began working
in our little corner grocery store by age eight and managed it by the age of twelve.
4
She appreciated my hard work and treated me as an equal. I learned that I could do
anything if I tried hard enough. I learned to depend on myself.
My mother always supported my decisions,but also shared her concerns. When I
decided to retire early from teaching to teach and write about etiquette(礼仪),
she announced her concerns. She worried that there wasn't a market for it—my mother,
always the business person. Nevertheless,by the end of our conversation she
encouraged me with “With your training and love of people,you are perfect for
this.”
By example,my mother taught me how to show respect for others. She gave me my
listening skills,my sympathy and my manners. Through her,I learned to be strong,
to follow my heart and to work hard. I never give up. If not for this,I wouldn't
be a successful business owner and good friend to all.

Ⅳ.七选五
While you are travelling abroad,cultural mistakes are more serious than
linguistic mistakes,which can lead to serious misunderstanding and even ill feeling
between individuals.__1__
•Touching Someone
__2__ In Mediterranean countries,if you don't touch someone's arm when talking
to them or if you don't greet them with kisses or a warm hug,you'll be considered
cold.But backslap(拍背)someone who isn't a family member or a good friend in Korea,
and you'll make them uncomfortable.In Thailand,the head is considered sacred—never
even pat a child on the head.
•Talking over Dinner
In some countries,like China,Japan and some African nations,the food is the
only thing,so don't start chatting about your day's adventures while everyone else
is digging into dinner.
__3__It's not because your group is unfriendly,but because mealtimes are for
eating,not talking.
•Removing Your Shoes or Not
Take off your shoes when arriving at the door of a London dinner party and the
hostess will find you uncivilized,but fail to remove your shoes before entering
a home in Asia , Hawaii , or the Pacific Islands and you'll be considered
disrespectful.So,if you see a row of shoes at the door,start undoing your laces.__4__
Once you are on the ground of a different country,remain highly sensitive to
native behavior.__5__ And don't feel offended if something seems offensive—like
queue jumping.After all,this is a global village,and we are all very different.
6
A.Personal space varies as you travel the globe.
B.Asians consider removing shoes impolite at home.
C.Never be completely surprised by anything.
