Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题):

Isabel Allende’s novels are enjoyed all over the world. She is famous for her creativity and imagination. And her own personal story is as amazing as any she has ever told in a novel. Born in 1942, Allende’s family moved often during her childhood. She went to school in South America, Europe, and Asia. As a young woman, she became a journalist in Santiago, Chile’s (智利) capital city. Then, she got married and had two children. In 1970, everything began to change.

Leaving home

Isabel Allende’s uncle was a political leader named Salvador Allende. In 1970, her uncle was elected president of Chile. In 1973, Augusto Pinochet led a military takeover (军事接管) of the Chilean government. President Allende was killed during the fighting. When Isabel Allende began to fear for her life, she and her family decided to move to Venezuela (委内瑞拉).

From Newspaper to Novels

It was really a painful experience for Isabel Allende to flee her country. Without this experience, however, Allende says she never would have begun writing novels. Then she got a phone call from Chile. Her grandfather was dying. She knew she could not return home to be with him, but she wanted to respect him in some way. “I decided to write a letter about all the things he told us when we were young,” Allende explains. Later, he wrote a long letter which became Allende’s first novel, The House of the Spirits.

The Writing Life

“I spent ten, twelve hours a day in a room, writing,” Allende says, “I don’t talk to anybody; I don’t answer the phone.” When she finishes the first draft (草稿) of a new novel, Allende mails a copy to her toughest critic (最严厉的评论家). “I send it to my mother in Chile. She reads it and comes here with a red pencil. We fight for a month at least.” Allende then goes back to work until she feels the book is finished. “The storytelling is the fun part,” she says. “The writing can be a lot of work!”

He found the boy’s father walking in the hall waiting for the doctor. On seeing him， the dad shouted， “Why did you take all this time to come? Don’t you know that my son’s life is in danger?”

The doctor smiled and said， “I am sorry， I wasn’t in the hospital and I came as fast as I could after receiving the call. And now， I wish you’d calm down.”

“Calm down?! What if your son was in this room right now， would you calm down?” said the father angrily. The doctor smiled again and replied， “We will do our best to save your son.”

After some hours the doctor went out happily. “Thank goodness! Your son is saved!” And without waiting for the father’s reply he went on his way running. “If you have any questions， please ask the nurse!”

“Why is he impolite? Why didn’t he wait some minutes so that I could ask about my son’s illness.” said the father when seeing the nurse minutes after the doctor left.
