【正文】 I had to study for a degree so that I would achieve a career, and not something as risky as writing. I suppose I could have studied joumalism （新聞） ,but I didn39。t want to lose interest in writing because it would be something I would do every day for work, not for pleasure. I thought that teaching looked like a pretty good promise （妥協(xié) ） , especially because of the long holidays. It was a good choice: by the time I was twentyfive，I39。d already finished two novels and had an agent. To be honest, I never meant to keep my being a crime writer a secret or anything, and my friends have always known. One of the reasons most people don39。t know is because my agent told me that my name Hazel sounded too much like a romance （浪漫） novelist for older women. She suggested Brooke Lane and I thought, Well, if you think it39。ll make me successful, okay, I39。d totally forgotten about it until I walked into school one day and saw one of my workmates reading my novel. I asked her some questions about it, and it was so clear that she had no idea that I39。d written it she even offered to lend it to me after she39。d finished! Of course, sometimes I wonder what my students would think if they knew that their teacher was going home on the weekend to write about murders and dead bodies, but I think my parents probably did me a favor: my teaching job keeps me in touch with the real world.（1）Hazel is probably ． A.an agentB.a journalistC.a teacher and artistD.a teacher and writer（2）The underlined words is very big on in the passage most probably mean .
