He barely made enough to eat.4) Did he ever doubt his ability to write? Why or why not?Yes. Because he didn’t receive a break after writing for a year or so.5) Why did the call from his old acquaintance change his life?Because his doubt of his resolution to write was cleared.

Therefore, while translating, we should transfer the negation in some cases.e. g. Every man cannot be a scientist.A high executive does not have a large vocabulary merely because of the opportunities of his position.A negative may be transferred from a certain part of the sentence to another in translation.e. g.

In the future, education is going to be much more of a lifelong demand. We are seeing already the end of what one might call the fuel tank model of education, where people fill themselves up with knowledge when they are young, gradually deplete their knowledge as they work through a lifetime, then retire. The opportunities to deliver knowledge to people who are thousands of miles away are greatlymagnified by the Internet. So the work of teaching—who we teach and how we teach them—will change.Hence, I am firmly convinced that if in one era the wealth and success of a society depended on how well it grew food, and if in another era, the wealth and success of a society depended on how well it produced and used steel, in the world that we are headed into , the wealth and success of a society will depend on how it produces and how it used knowledge. And I am firmly convinced there will be no more important institutions to this new world than universities. The most enduring tradition of university is that we are forever young, forever committed to renewing ourselves. That must be the work of universities around this world. Writing skills○11.
