Writer: Well, few would-be novelists aspire to be as plain and brutal as Hemingway, I suspect, but his dictum is still worth tucking into a corner of your brain – not to be followed slavishly, but as an antidote to that great curse of the inexperienced novelist: over-writing Interviewer: How you know if you are over-writing? Writer: Well, an excess of adverbs and adjectives is a clue Repetition under the guise of emphasis is another, and extended metaphors should be rationed tightly Interviewer: Now, there comes a point in the writing of every novel when you just don’t know any more You’ve been immersed in it for weeks, possibly years You’ve lost sight of the original impetus behind the book and are plagued with self-doubt – yet at the same time you know there is something there and are not ready to give up on it Writer: Yes, and this is the point at which you should be getting feedback 4 Interviewer: From whom? Writer: As a rule, I’d advise against getting it from your nearest and dearest You will be wounded by their criticism and suspicious of their praise Instead, join a writing community of some sort You need comments from another writer Those who have been logging onto my website will know that such a community has formed there Creative writing courses and book groups are also good places to find like-minded souls Through such contacts you can find someone who understands what you are trying to – which is not the same as someone who is uncritical of the way you it There is a time and a place for emotional support, but that is not what we are talking about here Interviewer: What kind of comments are useful in your view? Writer: Well, you need someone who is prepared to say, ‘I really like the opening paragraph but I thought it went a bit wrong after that because…’ and, crucially, is prepared to be specific ‘I just didn’t like him’ is not a helpful comment on a character ‘I lost sympathy with him in the scene where he tells his brother the truth because I thought he was too brutal Maybe you should rewrite it making his motivation clearer and his language softer.’ That is useful advice: you can choose whether to take it or discard it Similarly, at the level of prose style, some well-meaning person might say ‘It’s a bit boring’, but a helpful critic would say ‘You have three paragraphs of description here before you tell us who is talking; maybe you should consider starting the conversation first and weaving all the description in, instead of having it all in one chunk.’ Interviewer: How you personally get feedback on your work? Writer: The most fruitful relationships I have with other writers are with the novelists with whom I swap work – usually the person whose novel is under discussion pays for dinner If you can find other novelists who are working at a similar level to yourself, with similar interests, and who are frank and unafraid of frankness from you, then keep them close at hand Interviewer: Now what about reactions to feedback? We’ve talked about getting it, but what about when you’ve got it? Writer: Well, even with a trusted ally, there comes a point when you have to stick to your guns and say, ‘This person whom I really respect doesn’t like this bit but I and it’s staying in.’ And of course, feedback can be annoying For a start, a lot of the criticism you receive will be stuff which you knew already in your heart of hearts – you were just hoping nobody else would notice And sometimes, you will bristle at a certain comment on your work, not because it is untrue but because the consequences of righting that particular defect are too daunting to contemplate at that particular time – accurate criticism is the most painful of all On other occasions, you will have a gut feeling that the person reading your work just doesn’t ‘get’ it, or wants you to write a different novel entirely Frequently, the only way to work out if criticism is useful is to nod sagely, then file it in a drawer When the wounds have healed over and your ego is not under immediate threat, then you will be able to assess its true worth Section Hello everyone First of all, a big welcome to New York from all of us here at the hotel My name's Bob and I'm here to make sure you enjoy your stay in the city I've organized some great guided tours for you and we start tomorrow with a trip to the Museum of Immigration., on Ellis Island Now I'm going to give you a few background details that will help you get the most out of your visit As you know, millions of people came to the USA from Europe in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, especially during the period between 1897 and 1924 - that's the year when 5 immigration controls were introduced - and Ellis Island was the place where they first landed The buildings which immigrants had to pass through before they were allowed to come and live in the USA were used right up till 1954 Then they stood empty until they were restored as a museum, which opened in September 1990 And that's where we'll be going tomorrow Your tour of the museum begins when you step off the ferry, at the very point where the immigrants stepped off the ships that had brought the on their long journey all the way from Europe The first place they passed through is called the Baggage Room - that's where they picked up their bags and other possessions - and you'll be able to see a display of typical baggage from the period there as you pass through You then go into what's called the Registry Room - just as the immigrants did This is where they had medical check-ups and interviews and then, if all went well, they were allowed to enter the USA Imagine how it must have felt to be so close to your new home but still not be sure if you'd be accepted or put on the next ship home again But most people were accepted, and it's incredible but 100 million Americans can trace their family history in the USA to a man, woman or child who passed through this room And, 420,000 of them have their names written on what is known as the Wall of Honor, which you can see at the museum If things were real busy or if there was a problem, the newcomers might have to spend a few days on the island, and the next place you see on the guided tour is the sleeping area, known as the Bunk Room, and then after that what's called the Hearing room - that's where people who'd been refused entry could have their case heard by a judge The museum also has three theatres Theatre is a movie theatre and I've reserved tickets for you to see the 30-minute movie called Hope and Fears In the movie, you'll see immigrants telling their own stories of how they pulled up their roots in Europe and came to live in the USA Next door, in Theatre there'll be the chance to see the play called Ellis Island Stories, which also lasts for 30 minutes This play feature immigrants and immigration officer which based on real-life interviews recorded on Ellis Island We haven't made reservation but it begins at 11.10 a.m and there'll be plenty of time to see it if you'd like to Or you might want to visit the Oral History Library The Ellis Island Oral History Project has collected recordings of first-hand accounts of people's experiences at Ellis Island and you can listen to some of these on a computer system with 20 individual listening stations And if there's still time after that, why not visit the exhibition called The Peopling of America, which is located in the old ticket office, which was across the water from the old railroad station This exhibition places Ellis Island in the context of 400 years of North American immigration history So, all in all, it looks like being a great tour Section Over the roughly one-and-a-half millennia of its existence, chess has been known as a tool of military strategy, a (1) metaphor for human affairs, and a benchmark of genius While our earliest records of chess are in the 7th century, legend tells that the game’s origins lie a century earlier Supposedly, when the youngest prince of the Gupta Empire was killed in battle, his brother devised a way of representing the scene to their grieving mother Set on the 8x8 ashtapada board used for other popular pastimes, a new game emerged with two key features: 6 different rules for moving different types of pieces, and a single king piece whose fate determined the outcome The game was originally known as chaturanga–a Sanskrit word for "four divisions." But with its spread to Sassanid Persia, it acquired its current name and terminology– "chess," derived from "shah," meaning king, and “checkmate” from "shah mat," or “the king is helpless.” After the 7th century Islamic (2) conquest of Persia, chess was introduced to the Arab world Transcending its role as a tactical simulation, it eventually became a rich source of (3) poetic imagery (4) Diplomats and courtiers used chess terms to describe political power Ruling caliphs became avid players themselves And historian al-Mas’udi considered the game a testament to human free will compared to games of chance Medieval trade along the Silk Road carried the game to East and Southeast Asia, where many (5) local variants developed In China, chess pieces were placed at intersections of board squares rather than inside them, as in the native strategy game Go The reign of Mongol leader Tamerlane saw an 11x10 board with safe squares called citadels And in Japanese shogi, captured pieces could be used by the opposing player But it was in Europe that chess began to take on its modern form By 1000 AD, the game had become part of courtly education Chess was used as (6) an allegory for different social classes performing their proper roles, and the pieces were reinterpreted in their new context At the same time, the Church remained suspicious of games Moralists cautioned against devoting too much time to them, with chess even being briefly banned in France Yet the game proliferated, and the 15th century saw it (7) cohering into the form we know today The relatively weak piece of advisor was recast as the more powerful queen–perhaps inspired by the recent surge of strong female leaders This change accelerated the game’s pace, and as other rules were popularized, (8) treatises analyzing common openings and endgames appeared Chess theory was born With the Enlightenment era, the game moved from royal courts to coffeehouses Chess was now seen as an expression of creativity, encouraging bold moves and dramatic plays This "Romantic" style reached its peak in the Immortal Game of 1851, where Adolf Anderssen managed a checkmate after sacrificing his queen and both rooks But the emergence of formal competitive play in the late 19th century meant that strategic calculation would eventually trump (9) dramatic flair And with the rise of international competition, chess took on a new (10) geopolitical importance During the Cold War, the Soviet Union devoted great resources to cultivating chess talent, dominating the championships for the rest of the century THE END Thái Thị Phương Nga - THPT Chu Văn An - Hà Nội 0946061199 7 ...
