We are always wondering about or even worrying about our future, but having plans in place doesn't guarantee it. Hemingway wanted to be a writer from an early age, and later he succeeded. By comparison, Doyle was best known for his detective stories instead of his ideal historical novels. So we have to trust that our future will not be the same as we planned.

Facing the Future
For many of us, it's something we already have experienced(1). One moment, we are lying comfortably in bed, about to fall into a deep sleep. The next, our eyes are open and we find ourselves wondering or even worrying about possibly the most important issue of our lives—the future. Will we get into the school of our choice What will we be doing in ten years' time Can we become the person we really want to be(2) In the face of such questions, how should we approach the future Can we take action to shape it, or should we just accept whatever comes our way(3)
面 向 未 来
对于我们中的许多人来说,这是我们已经经历过的事情。这一刻,我们正舒舒服服地躺在床上,即将进入深度睡眠。下一刻,我们睁开眼睛,发现自己在思考甚至担心可能是我们生活中最重要的问题——未来。我们会被我们选择的学校录取吗 十年后我们会在做什么 我们能成为我们真正想成为的人吗 面对这些问题,我们应该如何对待未来呢 我们可以采取行动来塑造它还是我们应该接受我们所面临的一切呢

The American author, Ernest Hemingway, born in 1899, was from early boyhood single-minded in his ambition to write. On leaving high school, he joined a local Kansas newspaper as a trainee reporter. He went on to become foreign correspondent for the Toronto Star and used his extraordinary experiences in Europe and later Cuba to inform his writing. In his words,“I decided that I would write one story about each thing that I knew about(8).” Having set himself this goal(9), he wrote novels and short stories based on his personal experiences of the First World War, the Spanish Civil War, bullfighting and deep-sea fishing, amongst others. His novel The Old Man and the Sea, about the three-day epic struggle between an elderly fisherman and the biggest fish he had ever caught(10), won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1953. He would later go on to win the Nobel Prize in Literature.
美国作家欧内斯特·海明威出生于1899年,他从孩提时代起就一心一意地想要成为作家。高中一毕业,他就加入堪萨斯州当地的一家报社担任见习记者。他后来成为《多伦多星报》的驻外记者,并利用他在欧洲和后来在古巴的非凡经历来进行创作。用他的话说,“我决定写一篇关于我所知道的每件事的故事。”在为自己设定了这个目标后,他根据自己在第一次世界大战、西班牙内战、斗牛表演和深海捕鱼等方面的亲身经历,写了长篇小说和短篇小说。他的小说《老人与海》讲述了一位老渔民和他捕到的最大的鱼之间长达三天的史诗般的斗争,于1953年获得了普利策小说奖。后来,他获得了诺贝尔文学奖。

By contrast, the young Arthur Conan Doyle, born in Scotland in 1859, had originally worked as a doctor. But Doyle's main ambition was to become a writer of historical novels(11). Although some of his historical novels were published, their success was nothing compared to the stories of his fictional detective, Sherlock Holmes, which he is still best known for to this day(12).
相比之下,于1859年出生于苏格兰的年轻的阿瑟·柯南·道尔,最初是一名医生。但道尔的主要抱负是成为一名历史小说家。虽然他的一些历史小说已经出版,但与他虚构的侦探夏洛克·福尔摩斯的故事相比,它们的成功算不了什么。直到今天,他仍然以福尔摩斯的故事而闻名。

In desperation, Doyle killed off the famous detective in a novel published in 1893 so that he could focus on his “serious” writing(13). However, fans of Holmes were so angry that Doyle, under immense pressure, was forced to bring Holmes back from the dead. Doyle's many historical novels, plays, poems and academic papers have remained largely forgotten, but Sherlock Holmes has been entertaining readers for well over a century.
然而,公众永远看不够夏洛克·福尔摩斯。在绝望中,道尔在1893年出版的一部小说中“杀死了”这位著名的侦探,这样他就可以专注于他的“严肃”写作了。然而,福尔摩斯迷们如此愤怒,以至于道尔在巨大的压力下被迫将福尔摩斯复活了。道尔的许多历史小说、戏剧、诗歌和学术论文在很大程度上被遗忘了,但一个多世纪以来,夏洛克·福尔摩斯一直在娱乐读者。
