We Regret to Inform You...
“We regret to inform you①...”These are the words that every writer dreads receiving②，but words every writer knows well．The response from a publisher③ comes back and the writer eagerly opens and reads it，their hearts sinking[1] when they reach that final sentence④．You may have spent years giving up your weekends and free time⑤ to write your life's work，yet still this is often not enough．Everyone knows that success rarely happens overnight，but perhaps not many know that a lot of highly successful writers⑥ have previously faced rejection⑦．
[1]their hearts sinking是独立主格结构，在句中作状语。
Take for example⑧ J．K．Rowling．When she received her first rejection letter⑨，she decided that it meant she now had something in common with⑩ her favourite writers，and stuck it on her kitchen wall．Rowling had spent years surviving on little money，spending all her time writing．When she finally finished her first book，she received comments from publishers along the lines of “too difficult for children”，“too long”，“Children would not be interested in
it”．Nevertheless，she persevered．“I wasn't going to give up until every single publisher turned me down [2]，but I often feared that would happen，”she later posted．After a total of twelve rejections ，one publisher eventually agreed to print 500 copies of her first book，and as we know ，Harry Potter became a global success，with over 400 million books sold and translated into more than seventy different languages[3]．
[2]句中的not...until...表示“直到……才……”。
[3]句中with over 400 million books sold and translated into more than seventy different languages是“with＋宾语＋宾语补足语”结构。
All too often writers of great works have had to face criticism along with rejection．J．D．Salinger started writing short stories in high school，but later struggled to get his works published ．“We feel that we don't know the central character well enough”was the criticism he received on his manuscript for The Catcher in the Rye．Despite rejections from several publishers，J．D．Salinger refused to give up ．Even when serving in the US Army during the Second World War，he carried six chapters of The Catcher in the Rye with him and worked on the novel throughout his war service ．When it was eventually published，the book became an immediate best-seller and went on to sell millions and millions of copies ．
Perhaps the overall prize for perseverance should go to three sisters from Victorian England who dreamt of seeing their words in print ．This，however，was a time when women were not encouraged to become writers．As the then Poet Laureate，Robert Southey，wrote to one of them：“Literature cannot be the business of a woman's life ，and it ought not to be．”Nevertheless，the sisters didn't stop trying ．Their response was to write a book of poems under male names ．Even when the book sold only two copies，the sisters still
didn't give up．They started writing novels，and today Charlotte Brontё's Jane Eyre，Emily Brontё's Wuthering Heights and Anne Brontё's Agnes Grey are regarded as classics of world literature ．In fact，it is within the pages of Jane Eyre that we can find these words：“I honour endurance，perseverance，industry，talent；because these are the means by which men achieve great ends...”[4]
[4]本句是一个强调句，强调within the pages of Jane Eyre。by which引导定语从句，修饰先行词means。
So，it seems that talent alone isn't enough to guarantee success．While a lot of hard work and a touch of luck play a part ，perseverance is the key．Keep trying and eventually you will read the words “We are delighted to inform you...”
我们抱歉地通知您……
“我们抱歉地通知您……”这句话，对每个作家来说，既可怕又熟悉。出版商给了回信，作家急切地拆开来读，但读到这最后一句，心随即跌落谷底。你可能已经花费数年，放弃了周末和空闲时间去创作你的毕生作品，但这往往还不够。大家都明白，成功不是一朝一夕可以获得的；但也许很多人都不知道，很多卓越的作家也都曾被拒稿。
J．K．罗琳就是其中一位。当她收到第一封拒稿信时，她决定把这看作是自己与最喜爱的作家之间有了共同之处，并把这封信贴在厨房的墙上。罗琳过了很多年拮据的生活，她把所有时间都用来写作。当她终于完成第一本书时，出版商给出的评价却是“对孩子来说太难理解”“太长”“孩子们不会感兴趣”等等。尽管如此，她依然坚持不懈。“我不会放弃的，除非所有的出版商都拒绝我。不过我常常担心这真的会发生。”她后来说。在收到12封拒稿信后，终于有家出版商同意将她的第一本书印刷500册。我们都知道，《哈利·波特》后来在全球大获成功，销量超过4亿册，被翻译成了70多种不同的语言。
在被回绝的同时还要遭受批评，这在那些写出伟大作品的作家身上太普遍了。J．D．塞林格从高中时就开始写短篇小说了，但之后他的作品却难以发表。“我们觉得自己无法充分理解中心人物。”这是《麦田里的守望者》的手稿受到的批评。即使被多家出版商回绝，J．D．塞林格也从未放弃。甚至在二战期间，他在美国陆军服役时，还随身携带了《麦田里的守望者》一书的六章内容，继续致力于这部小说的创作。最终，这本书一经出版，便立刻成为畅销书，卖出了上千万册。
也许，坚持不懈的最高荣誉应该颁给来自英国维多利亚时代的三姐妹。她们梦想着看到自己的作品出版。然而，这是一个不鼓励妇女成为作家的时代。当时的桂冠诗人，罗伯特·骚塞，在给她们其中一位的信中写道：“文学不可能也不应该成为女人的事业。”尽管如此，三姐妹并没有放弃尝试。她们的应对方式是以男性名字为笔名写了一本诗集。即使这本诗集只卖出了两册，但她们还是没有放弃，转而开始写小说。如今，夏洛蒂·勃朗特的《简·爱》、艾米莉·勃朗特的《呼啸山庄》和安妮·勃朗特的《艾格妮丝·格雷》被认为是世界文学的经典之作。其实，这正印证了我们在《简·爱》中读到的：“我崇尚忍耐、坚毅、勤奋、天赋；因为只有依靠这些，人们才能实现宏大的目标……”
因此，仅靠天赋似乎不足以保证获得成功。不懈的努力和一点点运气固然很重要，但坚持不懈才是关键。坚持下去，你终会收到这样的回复：“我们高兴地通知您……”Period 1 单元词汇表(Words and expressions)
