Some years ago
when I was in my first year in college, I heard
Salome Bey sing
for
the
first
time.
The
moment
was
exciting.
Salome’s
1
filled
the
room
and
brought the theater to
life. I was so
2
that I decided to write an article
about her.
I
3
Salome Bey, telling her I was from
Essence magazine, and that I wanted
to
meet
her
to
talk
her
career.
She
4
and
told
me
to
come
to
her
studio
next
Tuesday. When I hung up, I was scared
out of my mind. I
5
I
was lying. I was
not a writer at all
and hadn’t even written a grocery list.
I interviewed Salome Bey the next
Tuesday. I sat there
6
, taking notes
and
asking
questions
that
all
began
with,
“Can
you
tell
me…”
I
soon
realized
that
7
Salome
Bey
was
one
thing,
but
writing
a
story
for
a
national
magazine
was
just
impossible.
The
8
was
almost
unbearable.
I
struggled
for
days
9
draft
after draft. Finally I
put my manuscript (
手稿
) into
a large envelope and dropped it
into a
mailbox.
It didn’t take long. My
manuscript
10
. How stupid of me! I
thought. How
could I
11
in a world of professional writers?
Knowing I couldn’t
12
the
rejection letter, I
threw the unopened envelope into a drawer.
Five
years
later,
I
was
moving
to
California.
While
13
my
apartment,
I
came across the unopened envelope. This
time I opened it and read the editor’s letter
in
14
:
Dear Ms Profit,
Your
story
on
Salome
Bey
is
fantastic.
Yet
we
need
some
15
materials.
Please add those
and return the article immediately. We would like
to
16
your
story soon.
Shocked, it took
me
a long time to
17
. Fear of rejection cost me dearly. I
lost at least five hundred dollars and
having my article appear in a major magazine.
More importantly, I lost years of
18
writing. Today, I have
become a full
–
time
writer.
Looking
back
on
this
19
,
I
learned
a
very
important
lesson:
You
can’t
20
to doubt yourself.

“If
you want to see a thing well, reach out
and touch it!” That may seem a strange
thing to say. But touching things can
help you to see them better. Your eyes can tell
you that glass ball is round. But by
holding it in your hands, you can feel how smooth
and
cool
the
ball
is.
You
can
feel
how
heavy
the
glass
is.
When
you
feel
all
these
about the ball, you really see it. With
your skin, you can feel better. For example, your
fingers can tell the difference between
two coins in your pocket. You can feel a little
drop of water on the back of your hand,
too. You can even feel sounds against your
skin. Have
you ever wanted
to know why some people like very loud
music? They
must
like
to
feel
the
sounds
of
music.
All
children
soon
learn
what
“Don’t
touch!”
means. They hear it
often. Yet most of us keep on touching things as
we grow up. In
shops,
we
touch
things
we
might
buy,
such
as
food,
clothes
and
so
on.
To
see
something
well, we have to touch it. The bottoms of our feet
can feel things, too. You
know this
when you walk on warm sand, cool grass or a bad
floor. All feel different
under your
feet. There are ways of learning to see well by
feeling. One way is to close
your eyes
and try to feel everything that is touching your
skin. Feel the shoes on your
feet, the
clothes on your body, the air on your skin. At
first, it is not easy to feel these
things. You are too used to them! Most
museums are just for looking. But today some
museums have some things to touch.
The
ir signs say, “Do touch! There you
can feel
every thing on show. If you
want to see better, reach out and touch. Then
you’ll really
see!”
21. By touching things _______.
A. you will have a strange
feeling B. you will learn how to reach out

22. Which

story?
A. Touching by

them

things
.
” ?
