题目内容:
Robert lives in a small town. Five years ago, when he was nineteen, he finished middle school. He didn't like any subjects except playing when he was at school. Of course he learned nothing and the bosses wouldn't use a man like him. He has to stay at home, but he doesn't do any housework. He only watches TV or lies in bed. It makes his parents angry. They want him to study something. He always thinks it difficult and doesn't listen to them.
One day Robert was walking near a bookshop while some young men were talking about the writers. He heard the publishing house paid the writers a lot. He became interested in it. As soon as he got home, he began to write. But he couldn't write anything. At last he bought a book and copied a story. Then he posted it to the publishing house.
