Back then, the Cherokee had no way to write down words in their ownlanguage.Sequoyah believed it was important for the Cherokee to have a systemof writing.So, in 1809, he set out to create an alphabet that the Cherokeecould use to do just that.
Sequoyah started by drawing pictures, with each one representing adifferent word or idea.He soon realized that writing sentences using pictureswould be much too difficult.There were too many words.No one would ever beable to remember that many pictures.
Sequoyah decided to try a different approach.He began to developsymbols to stand for the sounds, or syllables (音节), that made upwords.Twelve years later, he completed a system of writing with 86 differentsymbols.Each one stood for a different syllable in the Cherokee language.Thesymbols could easily be put together to form. words.Soon thousands of Cherokeewere able to read and write in their own language.
Sequoyah's work did not end there, however.He helped to establish aprint shop and began publishing a bilingual newspaper in both Cherokee andEnglish.The shop also printed books translated from English into Cherokee.Inlater years, Sequoyah also became a political leader among the Cherokee.

Many a young person tells me he wants to be a writer. I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there’s a big difference between "being a writer" and writing. In most cases these individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hour alone at a typewriter. "You’ve got to want to write," I say to them, "not want to be a writer. "
The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor paying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded. When I left a 20 year career in the U. S. Coast Guard to become a freelance (自由栏目) writer, I had no prospects at all. What I did have was a friend who found me my room in a New York apartment building. It didn’t even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom. I immediately bought a used manual typewriter and felt like a genuine writer.
After a year or so, however, I still hadn’t gotten a break and began to doubt myself. It was so hard to sell a story that I barely made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write, I had dreamed about it for years. I wasn’t going to be one of those people who die wondering: What if? I would keep putting my dream to the test even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure. This is the shadow land of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.

听力原文: There student thieves look out. Students can easily get many research papers off the Internet. A new Website could help teachers catch copiers.
Some students research and write their term papers. Others, however, just copy them off the Internet and turn them in as their work.
Two graduate students at the University of California at Berkeley have written a program to catch the students who copy. It compares a student's paper with every other term paper on the Web.
A hundred million Web pages on the Internet are searched. The top 20 search engines are used for the search. This service can be found at www. Plagiarism.com. They also have a local database of term papers. Teachers who sign up can send their students' 'papers to the Website. Within 24 hours they know if the student did the work. Every sentence that was a word-for-word match with another sentence either found on the Internet or within our database is coded.
A U. C. Berkeley professor told his class he would use the program. Still some students copied papers. All 300 papers went through the program. In 45 papers or 15 percent of students had cut and pasted large amounts of material from different World Wide Websites.
Students that say they didn't copy can defend themselves. They can show the instructor where they got their material. Students at universities try hard to get good grades. Some students welcome the Internet research watchdog because they say it is fair to all. They think copying is wrong.
Instead of researching and writing their papers, some students ______.
A.ask other students to write their papers
B.draw pictures instead
C.copy from reference books
D.copy papers or large parts of papers from the Internet
