六、阅读理解
Writers have very clear preferences for where and how they write. For example, some writers like to have people around them and background noise, but others prefer working alone.
Novelist Ernest Hemingway used to write standing up. D. H. Lawrence wrote under a tree. Jane Austen wrote on a small table in her family living room. Children’s writer and poet Roald Dahl sat in a very old armchair in a small building and French novelist Marcel Proust wrote in bed. Graham Greene used to write only in the morning. After 500 words, he stopped, even in the middle of a sentence. Nicholson’s Café in Edinburgh became famous because J. K. Rowling sat there and wrote some parts of her first best - selling fantasy novel, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone. She used to sit at the same table, drinking coffee and writing in a notebook with her baby asleep in her pushchair(童车).
Most novelists write alone, but scriptwriters and songwriters often write together. A team of seven writers wrote scripts each week for the popular American sitcom Friends. Lennon and McCartney wrote 180 songs together for The Beatles.
Perhaps the strangest of all is classical music writer Beethoven. He was completely deaf when he wrote the famous Ninth Symphony, so he took the legs off his piano and felt the small shaking movements of the music through the floor.
