2014年成考专升本英语考试真题:According to Ryan,what attracts young readers most?
题目:【Reading Comprehension】
`Like any teenagers , the face of One Teen Story is changing fast. Just a year old, the monthly magazine of short fiction for young people is getting a new editor-in-chief : Patrick Ryan ,47 , the associate editor of Granta from 2009 to 2013. He left the London-based literary journal last month.
`Editing One Teen Story-the younger sibling(娣妹篇) of One Story magazine-will offer Ryan a chance to reach a whole new audience. " It's really the only magazine for young adult short fiction , "he says from his office in New York. “It's tremendously exciting that there are younger people out there who have subscriptions and look forward to getting these stories once a month. That form is usually only presented when it ' s forced upon them in schools. "
Designed for readers 14 and up, One Teen Story publishes nine issues a year. Like its sibling magazine ,it doesn't carry photographs or advertising. It ' s just exactly what it says :one story per issue.
Ryan says young people are "looking for engaging reads about people whom they can identify with. It's not about having a message or positive spin(说教) . It always starts on a character level,and it has to have an interesting story. If you look at the ' Twilight ' characters and the ' Harry Potter 'characters , they feel very contemporary.
Ryan also sees the magazine as a way to encourage talented authors. "I would love to make One Teen Story the first publication for writers who then go on and keep at this business. I just really love the idea that this magazine would be the starting point for somebody—would be the push to make a talented writer feel that it was worth keeping at this. "
