A friend of mine was fond of drawing horse. He drew the horses very well, but he always began the tail. Now it is the Western rule to begin at the head of the horse, that is why I was surprised. It struck me that it could not really make any difference whether the artist begins at the head or the tail or the belly(肚子)or the foot of the horse, if he really knows his business. And most great artists who really know their business do not follow other people's rule. They make their own rules. Every one of them does his work in a way peculiar( 奇怪的) to himself; and the peculiarity means only that he finds it more easy to work in that way.

Now the very same thing is true to literature(文學(xué)). And the question, "How shall I begin?'' Only means that you want to begin at the head instead of beginning at the tail or somewhere else. That is, you are not yet experienced(有經(jīng)驗(yàn)的) enough to trust to your own powers. When you become more experienced you will never ask the question, and I think that you will often begin at the tail--that is to say, you will write the end of the story before you have even thought of the beginning.

1. A friend of the writer's drew the horses__________.

A. very well                              B. in the way of western rule

C. in the way of his own rule                   D. all of the above
