From a very early age, perhaps the age of five or six, I knew that when I
grew I should be a writer. Between the ages of about seventeen and 【1】______
twenty-four I tried to abandon this idea, but I did so with the conscience that I 【2】______
was outraging my true nature and that soon or later I should have to settle 【3】______
down and write books.
I was the child of three, but there was a gap of five years on the either 【4】______
side, and I barely saw my father before I was eight. For this and other reasons
I was somewhat lonely, and I soon developed disagreeing mannerisms which 【5】______
made me unpopular throughout my schooldays. I had the lonely child’s habit
of making up stories and holding conversations with imaginative persons, and 【6】______
I think from the very start my literal ambitions were mixed up with the 【7】______
feeling of being isolated and undervalued. I knew that I had a facility with
words and a power of facing in unpleasant facts, and I felt that this created a 【8】______
sort of private world which I could get my own back for my failure in 【9】______
everyday life. Therefore, the volume of serious—i. e. seriously intended— 【10】______
writing which I produced all through my childhood and boyhood would not amount to half a dozen pages. I wrote my first poem at the age of four or five, my mother taking it down to dictation.
选项
答案
grow^ up
解析
grow up表示“reach the stage of full development;become adult or mature”,而grow仅表示“生长”。作者的原意是:在他很小的时候,他就知道长大成人后,他应该是成为一名作家,故grow up更贴切。
