the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1953 and won the Nobel Prize in Literature later
Arthur Conan Doyle

the fictional detective
his historical novels amongst other academic works; the public couldn’t get enough of Sherlock Holmes
Similarities

the same ambitious and energetic approach to life
Now read the sentence from the passage and answer the questions.
So, whatever twists and turns you might encounter, take a leaf out of the books of these two authors and be prepared for the unexpected.
1 What is your understanding of “take a leaf out of the books”
2 What effect is the author aiming to achieve by using it
3 What other expressions do you know that share the same meaning
Activity 5
1. My understanding of “take a leaf out of the books” is to copy the way someone else behaves because you want to be like them or be as successful as they are. It is a metaphor based on books, it is also a pun, because it appears in a text about writers.
2. The author aims to maintain the reader’s interest by using this figure of speech, and perhaps to end on a lighter note by using a pun.
Think & Share
What is your understanding of Steve Jobs’ words at the end of the passage
What can you learn about facing the future from the two authors
What will you do to prepare yourself for the future
Do you know any stories about Chinese writers and their plans for the future What lessons can you learn from their experiences Share your opinions with the class.
You cannot make sense of your life by looking forward, because the future has not happened yet, and the meaning of future events is therefore uncertain. However, once future events have occurred, you may be able to see how they fit into the pattern of your life. Things which you did not expect to be important may turn out to be very important. You must face the future by believing that everything will work out in the end, and that your life will make sense and have meaning.
