2014高考英语阅读理解全程冲刺训练（14）及答案 阅读理解 Dear Friend, The recent success of childrens books has made the general public aware that theres a huge market out there. And theres a growing need for new writers trained to create the $3 billion worth of childrens books bought each year ... plus stories and articles needed by over 650 publishers of magazines for children and teenagers. Who are these needed writers? Theyre ordinary folks like you and me. But am I good enough? I was once where you might be now. My thoughts of writing had been pushed down by self-doubt, and I didnt know where to turn for help. Then, I accepted a free offer from the Institute to test my writing aptitude（潜能）, and it turned out to be the inspiration I needed. The promise that paid off The Institute made the same promise to me that they will make to you, if you show basic writing ability: You will complete at least one manuscript（手稿） suitable to hand in to a publisher by the time you finish our course. I really didnt expect any publication before I finished the course, but that happened. I sold three stories. And I soon discovered that was not unusual at the Institute. Since graduation, I have authored 34 nationally published childrens books and over 300 stories and articles. Free test and brochure We offer a free aptitude test and will send you a copy of our brochure describing our recognized home-study courses on the basis of one-on-one training.
