/span>.阅读理解For a long time, I kept a selection of books on a shelf next to my bed that I called my "heart books". To qualify for a place on the shelf, a book had to be not only one I loved, but one that mattered. There was one book that never made it onto that shelf, though I read it in high school:Writing Down the Bones by Natalie Goldberg.I can still remember the day I bought it. It was summer and I must have been 14 or 15. Desperate to get out of my house, I rode my bike into town and walked into the bookstore. I was going through the shelf of books on writing and it caught my eye. I picked it up, read a few pages, and bought it. Then I took it with me to a park, read the first few chapters, and opened my notebook to write.It's a fairly straightforward writing book. Goldberg's method is simple: you choose a topic, set a timer, and write for 10, 15, or 20 minutes without picking up your pen. Free writing, timed writing, writing topics: anyone who has taken a creative writing class may have encountered these things. It's notearth-shattering. There was nothing particularly new or unusual about the book so I can't say why it attracted me so much. But it changed everything. I went from being someone who enjoyed writing to being a writer.During my teen years and early twenties, following Goldberg's method was at the core of my identity. No matter where I was or what I was doing, I filled notebooks. When I eventually started writing fiction, I did the same thing. The "I" in my notebooks became someone else, but I held to the same practice.This writing practice led me to a writing group in Boston. It led me to my current career. It led me, in so many ways, to myself. Becoming a writer allowed me to become so many other things: an activist, a business owner, a farmer, a baker... Writing is where I found my confidence. It was where I became curious about the world. From that, everything else has followed. （1）  How did the author encounter Writing Down the Bones? A . By following a selection of "heart books". B . By referring to a book list about writing. C . By recommendation of Natalie Goldberg. D . By seeking writing books on a bookshelf. （2） What does the word "earth-shattering" underlined in paragraph 3 mean? A . Trivial. B . Remarkable. C . Appropriate. D . Amusing. （3） What can we infer about Writing Down the Bones? A . It inspired the author to be a writer. B . It was the first novel the author read. C . It made the author start to love writing. D . It is one of the books the author reads most. （4） Which of the following is answered by the last paragraph? A . What is the author's life like right now? B . What did the author do in the writing group? C . How has the writing practice shaped the author? D . Why did the author give up the writing practice? 答案： D B A C
