Suppose someone gave you a pen---a sealed(密封的),solid‑coloured pen. You couldn’t see how much 21 it had. It might run dry  22  the first few tentative (试探的) words or last just long and make a difference in the scheme of things. You don’t know when the ink will  24 .

Under the rules of the game, you really never know. You have to  25 a chance! Actually, no rule of the game states you must do anything.  26  picking up and using the pen, you could leave it on a shelf or in a drawer where it will dry up, 27 .But if you do decide to use it, what would you  28  it? How would you  29  the game?

Would you plan and plan before you ever  30  a word? Would your plans be so extensive that you never didn’t even start  31 ? Or would you take the pen  32 ,plunge right in and Just do it, struggling to keep up  33  the twists and turns of the torrent (急流)of words that take you where they take you?

Would you write cautiously and  34 ,as if the pen might run dry the next moment, or would you pretend to believe that the pen would write forever and go on accordingly?

And what would you write about:Love? Hate? Fun? Misery? Life? Death? Nothing? 35 ?

Would you write to  36 just yourself? Or others? Or yourself by writing about others?

Would you even write? Once you have the pen ,no  37 says you have to write. Would you sketch? Scribble(潦草地写)？Doodle(涂鸦)or draw? Would you stay in or on the  38 ,or see no lines at all, even if they  39 there? There’s a lot to think about here, isn’t there?

Now,  40  someone gave you a life…
