When Amy wrote her first novel in secondary school, she never imagined that she would become a writer one day. Like many 16 writers on the Internet, the 17 woman got into this online world accidentally(偶然地).
Three years ago, Amy worked in a medical industry. Her job kept her busy for six months and left her almost 18 to do for the rest of the year. To fill the time, she started writing 19 on the Internet. Her first novel was about her neighbours and their life 20 she is familiar with.
Amy has been interested in writing 21 she was a child. At first, she just wanted to share her novels 22 people she knew. Then one day an editor of a famous website emailed her, asking her 23 she would like to sell the electronic copyright(授权) of one of her novels. She 24 immediately and the novel was moved to the VIP section of the website. She got $ 1,500 for that.
Now Amy is a full-time 25 . So far her eight novels have come out online, and five of them 26 .
“The Internet made me famous and brought me 27 ,” she said. “I earn much more money now— about $60,000 a year. I am 28 with my career, but there is one problem — that my talent might run out after five years and I’ll have to 29 to work in the medical industry.”
“Before that day comes, I’ll keep 30 for the readers with my light and close-to-everyday-life writing style,” said Amy with a smile.

The boss was 2 to see his good worker go, and asked if he could build just one more house as a personal favor. The carpenter said yes, 3 it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work. He used poor skills and 4 materials. It was an unfortunate way to 5 his career.
When the carpenter finished his work, the boss came to 6 the house. After he checked it out, he handed a 7 to the carpenter. “This is your house,” he said. ‘It is my gift to you.”
What a shame！If he knew he was building his own house, the old man would have done it all so 8 .

We know that trees are useful in our everyday life. They give us 1things, such as wood, oxygen, rubber（橡胶）, medicines 2many other things. They can also tell us a lot about our climate. The following are the reasons. If you cut 348a tree, you can see that it has many rings. Most trees grow one new ring 4year. Because of this, we know how old a tree is. A tree over a hundred 5means that it has more than a hundred 6. When the climate is dry or very cold, the trees do not grow very much and their rings 7usually thin. When it is wet and warm, the rings
8 thicker. If the rings are suddenly very thin or suddenly very thick, it means that the 9 changed suddenly. If we look at the rings on the tree, we can learn about the climate in the past years. We can see
