  Today, when a man steps on to the moon, or something new and important happens, the world learns about it immediately. What did the newspapers say about that first flight in 1903? Strangely enough, they said hardly anything about it at all. There were only a few reports about it in the papers. These reports said very little. Some of the things they said were not even correct.

  In 1904 the Wrights built a second machine. They called it "Flyer No. Two". They invited some reporters to a field near Dayton to watch them fly. Unfortunately there was some mechanical (机械的)trouble with the plane and it did not fly at all that day. The newspapermen went away. They were disappointed and did not come back. The Wrights went on with their work. In 1905, they built an even better machine, "Flyer No. Three". They were able to stay upon the air for half an hour and more in the machine and they were able to turn and climb in the air. Farmers and travelers on the road around Dayton often saw them flying. But when these people told newspapermen about it, they refused to believe them.

They did not understand the Wrights had already done this, and flown it as well. Experts were still saying that mechanical flight was impossible.

  Many a young person tells me he wants to be a writer.I always   1   such people, but I also explain that there’s a big   2   between“being a writer”and“writing”.

  In most cases these individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame,   3   the long hours spent alone   4  .“You’ve got to want to write,”I say to them,“not want to be a writer.”

  The   5   is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair.For every writer kissed by   6   there are thousands more whose longing is   7   rewarded.When I   8   a 20-year career in the U.S.Coast Guard to become a freehand writer, I had no prospects(前景)at all.What I   9   was a friend who found me a room in a New York apartment building.It didn’t   10   matter that it was cold and had no bathroom.I immediately bought a(an)  11   manual typewriter and   12   a genuine writer.

  After a year or so,   13  , I still hadn’t gotten a break and began to   14   myself.It was so hard to sell a story that I   15   made enough to eat.But I knew I   16   write.

  I had dreamed about it   17  .I wasn’t going to be one of those people who die   18  “What if?”I would keep putting my dream to the   19   even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure.This is the Shadow Land of   20  , and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.
