Many a young person tells me he wants to be a writer. I always encourage such people, but I also explain that theres a big difference between being a writer and writing.【小题1】 Youve got to want to write, I say to them, not want to be awriter.
The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poorly-paid affair. 【小题2】 When I left a 20-year job in the US Coast Guard to become a writer, I had no hopes at all. 【小题3】 .

I wasn going to be one of those people who die wondering What if... ? I would keep putting my dream to the test even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure. 【小题5】 .D
答案：

解析：
【小题1】根据前面许多人告诉我说他想成为一位作家，但是我想他们解释作家和写作有很大的不同，所以后面提到在打字机旁不能待很长时间，所以选D
【小题2】有前面一句The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poorly-paid affair.说现实是写作是孤独的、私人的、低收入的事，所以接下来写作家怎么样，所以选A
【小题3】前面说坐着离开工作了的地方想成为一名作家，那时对他来说，什么都没有，他所拥有的是发现了他的朋友，所以选B
【小题4】前面说他丢掉工作，并且写作收入低，所以他所挣得钱不够填满肚子，所以选E
【小题5】虽然作者收入很低，甚至他所挣得钱不够填满肚子，但他仍然坚持，最后成为一名作家，所以他说只要有一点希望，怀有们想的任何人必须学会生活在那，所以选C
