　　It is easy to underestimate English writer James Herriot. He had such a pleasant, readable style that are might think that anyone could imitate it. How many times have I heard people say, “I could write a book, I just haven’t the time” Easily said. Not so easily done. James Herriot, contrary to popular opinion did not find it easy in his early days of, as he put it, “having a go at the writing game”. While he obviously had an abundance of natural talent, the final polished work that he have to the world was the result of years of practicing, re-writing and reading. Like the majority of authors, he had to suffer many disappointments and rejections along the way, but these made him all the more determined to succeed. Everything he achieved in life was earned the hard way and his success in the literacy field was no exception.

　　【真題譯文】

　　人們很容易低估了英國小說家詹姆斯·赫里歐。他的作品有一種令人愉快、易讀的風(fēng)格，大概就讓人以為任何人都能模仿他。我總是聽人說：我也可以寫書，就是我沒有時(shí)間。這話說得輕松，做得到可不容易。與大眾的觀點(diǎn)相反，詹姆斯·赫里歐在他早期，用他的話說，“在寫作游戲中嘗試”并不容易。他顯然極具天賦，但他留給世人的最終的、精雕細(xì)琢的作品卻是多年練習(xí)、重寫和閱讀的結(jié)果。和大多數(shù)作家一樣，他在寫作過程中也遭受了許多失望和拒絕，但這些都使他更加堅(jiān)定了成功的決心。他一生中所取得的一切成就都是來之不易的，他在文學(xué)領(lǐng)域的成功也不例外。
