听力原文: OK! When we met last week, we talked about different kinds of short stories and some well-known short story writers. I remember that many of you said you liked the American writer Earnest Hemingway, right? I hope you all followed my advice and finished reading his story "A day's wait", because as I said, we're going to study it together in today's lesson. Now since you're supposed to have read this story, let's have some discussion. Please look at the four questions on the blackboard. First, when and where does the story take place? Second, what does the boy read for in the story and what kind of person does he show himself to be? Third, what kind of person is the boy's father? Four, what is the writer's main purpose of writing the story? I'd like you to work in groups of four or five and present your answers in ten minutes. Is everything clear?

听力原文:W: When you write a novel, do you know where you're going, Dr. James?
M: Yes, you must, really. If you're writing the classical detective story, because it must be so carefully plotted and so carefully clued. I have schemes. I have charts. I have diagrams. It doesn't mean to say I always get it right, but I do plan before I begin writing. But what is so fascinating is how a book changes during the process of writing. It seems to me that creative writing is a process of revelation, really, rather than of creativity in the ordinary sense.
W: When you're planning the basic structure, do you like to go away to be sure that you're by yourself?
M: I need to be by myself certainly, absolutely. I can't even bare anybody else in the house. I don't mind much where I am as long as I' ve got enough space to write, but I need to be completely alone. W: Is that very important to you?
M: Oh, yes. I've never been lonely in all my life.
W: How extraordinary! Never?
M: No, never.
W: You're very lucky. Someone once said that there's a bit of ice at the heart of every writer.
M: Yes. I think this is true.The writer can stand aside from experience and look at it, watch it happening. There is this "detachment" and I realize that there are obviously experiences which would overwhelm everyone. But very often, a writer can appear to stand aside, and this detachment makes people feel there's a bit of ice in the heart.
