It was a live Web chat to mark World Book Day. And, Rowling ----- who has always insisted she would write only seven Potter books---- was asked by a fan if she intended to write books about Harry after he leaves Hogwarts, the academy for wizards (巫师学院)
“Probably not. But I’ll never say never. That’s because every time I do immediately break the vow. (誓言).’’ she replied.
Rowling, whose wealth was recently estimated (估计) at US $1 billion, is writing the sixth Potter book.
In the Web chat, she was flooded with 16,000 questions from devoted readers of her wizard sagas ( 英雄传奇)
The release in June last year of the fifth book was billed as the world’s biggest book launch.
Asked what would happen if fiction( 幻想) became fact. Rowling said, “ I think I’d most like to spend a day with Harry. I’d take him out
for a meal and apologize for everything I put him through.”
Then she jokingly warned that even tougher times faced Potter, “ In Book Six, the wizarding world is really at war again. And he has to make himself useful.”

Girly, pretty, with long dark hair, 18-year-old Katie Leung from Scotland is sure to arouse much excitement among Harry Potter fans this month.
The fourth film adaptation (改编) of the wildly popular J.K.Rowling books, Harry Potter and the Goblet of fire(《哈利·波特与火焰杯》)is released on November 18, Katis is about to burst onto the big screen as the girl Cho Chang who wins Harry Potter’s heart.
Katie’s scenes in the film are set around the Hogwarts Yule Ball(圣诞舞会). Harry plucks up courage (鼓足勇气) to ask Cho to the dance. But Cho has a boyfriend and she must turn Harry down. “ I think she’s a really loyal person,” Katie says of her character, “ The scenes where Harry is gazing at (注视) Cho are fun. Cho sees Harry looking and gives him a look back. He then thinks he’s got a chance, but he hasn’t.” The story of Katie becoming Cho also has fairytale qualities. She went to the initial audition(初试) in London after her dad saw an advertisement on a Chinese TV channel. The actress had to be 16, which Katie was at the time, and of Eastern appearance. When the director asked,
“ Who’s from Scotland?” Katie was the only who put her hand up.
Although Katie had no previous(先前的) acting experience, not even in a school play, she beat 5,000 hopefuls and won the role.
“ I felt pretty confident (自信的)but that was only because I was treating the audition as a bit of fun. I’m not the kind of girl who’s always dreamed of being an actress,” Katie said.
“ I’m the shy type, really. At school I could go without talking to anyone fir days and days, I was so shy that it was unbelievable and it never occurred to me that I could get into this business.
Katie isn’t calling herself an actress just yet, although she won praise from Daniel Radcliffe (who plays Harry) for her performance, who described her as a “natural”
Cho and Harry’s relationship develop in later books, but Katie doesn’t know if she’ll be in the next film.
“I’d like to do more acting, but if Goblet of fire turns out to be my only film then I think it would be pretty cool to be known about the girl, Katie Leung?
5. From the text, what can we know about the girl, Katie Leung?
A.Before she played the role, everybody thought that she would be an
actress because of her beauty.
B.She plays as Harry Potter’s first crush （迷恋的人）
C.She has no confidence when she was in the initial audition
D.She will play another girl in the next Goblet of fire
6. Why does the director choose Katie Leung as Cho Chang, who wins Harry Potter’s heart?
A. Because she plays very well in the initial audition
B. Because she was a pretty gir4l with long hair, and the most important was that she was 18 years old.

As prices and building costs keep rising ,the ‘do-it-yourself’ (DIY)trend（趋势）in the U.S. continues to grow.
‘We needed furniture（家具）for our living room,’ says John Ross, ‘and we just didn’t have enough money to buy it. So we decided to try making a few tables and chairs.’ John got married six months ago ,and like many young people these days, they are struggling to make a home at a time when the cost of living is very high.
