双语美文：拿起笔还是放下

To write or not to write拿起笔还是放下Writing is not easy. I do it everyday. 写作非常不容易。我每天都在写作。And I can tell you, it’s quite a challenge. 我可以告诉你，这是一个相当大的挑战。But, the more I do it, the easier I get to just write. 但是，我写作的越多，我就越会容易的感觉下笔如有神。Sometimes, that’s the most difficult part starting. 有时候，最困难的部分是开始。When people ask me about writing---how they can write---I often suggest they brainstorm first. 当人们问我关于写作——他们如何写作——我通常建议他们先作头脑风暴。Writing the main ideas collected to a topic, usually produces some great things. 写出收集到一个话题的主要思想，这个话题通常会产生一些伟大的东西。If the things get organized, perhaps through an outline, 如果条理化，也许会产生一份提纲， then you can write something really great. 你就可以写出一些非常棒的东西。Most of the writings I do with spontaneous, I just start writing. 大部分的作品我都是自然而然写出，我才刚开始写作。I just stopped and done. 我只是停下来做而已。But I always go over what I wrote at least two times. 但我总是至少两次重温自己所写的。The first time I go over my writing is spell-check the word, 第一次我检查写作中的词语拼写， It’s unacceptable to deliver a piece of writing with misspelling in it. 我不能接受一篇文章里有拼写差错的问题出现。The second time, I actually read what I wrote aloud, 第二次，我大声读出我所写的， and add things that may I missed, 并添加可能我错过的东西， it could be a idea that seems incomplete or something else. 它可能是一个似乎不完整或别的什么东西。If you have the time, it’s good to put your writing down for a little while, 如果你有时间，最好让你的写作停下来一会儿， and read it again later, and to see how you like it. 再读一遍，看看你有多喜欢它。You may have something you wish to add or subtract. 你可能有一些想增加或者删减的东西。If you have a serious paper to write, 如果你想写些非常严肃的东西， and you have completed all of the things I talked about, 那你一定要按照我刚才谈到的所有的东西去做， the best thing to do--before you return your paper--is to have someone to read what you wrote and make comments on it. 在你回到这篇文章前最好的事情就是有人读你写的东西并发表看法。There is no doubt that practice makes perfect. 毫无疑问，熟能生巧。or at least better, so, if you want to be a better writer in Korean or English, 至少会更好，所以，如果你想成为一位更好的韩语或英语作家， I recommend that you write as much as you can. 我建议你写的越多越好。
