They related to The Cuckoo’s Calling，her first novel as Galbraith. But Rowling also saw Harry Pott er turned down several times before the boy wizard became one of the greatest phe nomena in children’s literature，with sal es of more than 400m copies worl dwid e.Asked how she kept motivated，she tweeted: “I had nothing to lose and someti mes that makes you brave enough to try.” When she pitched under the name Galbrai th without revealing her true identity，she faced many more snubs. Since then，Gal braith has published three successful novels but the first was rejected by several pub lishers，and Rowling was even advised to take a writing course.Rowling erased the signatures when she posted the l etters online，saying her m otive was “inspiration not revenge”. She did not reveal the full text of the most bruta l brush-off，which came by email from one of the publishers who had also rejected Harry Potter.Rowling said she could not share the Potter rejections because they “are now ina box in my attic” before offering the Galbraith letters. The kindest and most detaile d rejection came from Constabl e & Robinson，who –despite the advice about a writ ing course –includ ed helpful tips on how to pitch to a publisher (“as on book jacket s –don’t give away the ending！”). The publisher added: “I regret that we have reluct antly come to the conclusion that we could not publish it without commercial succes s.” The short note from publishers Crème de la Crime said the firm had become part of another publishing group and was not accepting new submissions.When The Cuckoo’s Calling eventually found a publisher in 2013，it was achievi ng respectabl e sales before the secret of its authorship broke，and it then shot to th e top of the bestseller lists.Joanne Harris，author of a string of hit novels，joined the Twitter discussion t o say she had so many rejections for her 1999 book Chocolat，later adapted as a H ollywood movie，that she had piled them up and “made a sculpture”.Rowling，Harris and their literary disciples are in excellent company. Eimear McBrid e，the 2014 Bailey’s prizewinner for her first novel A Girl is a Half-formed Thing，accumulated a drawer full of rejection letters before a chance conversation led to her book being published by Galley Beggar，a tiny independ ent publisher in Norwich.25.

Why did JK Rowling post some rejection letters on the Twitter？A. To inform read ers that hardships make a man stronger.B. To inspire ambitious writers never to give up halfway.C. To take her revenge on those publishers who ever rejected her.D. To carry out an acad emic discussion with other fellow writers.【C】The number of people hiding their identity while surfing the web has risen in the past year.Research shows that the level of “encrypted” internet activity has risen dramaticall y across the world，suggesting that millions of people have begun to use software t hat hid es who they are while accessing the web.According to Sandvine，the technol ogy networking company，hid den internet traf fic in peak hours in Europe has been up to 6.1 per cent of all web activities compa red with about 1.5 per cent a year earlier.

The simple concept has resonated with(引起共鸣) the students，and already has created a better environ ment within the school community.“Each day，I go to see the buddy bench working，” Farrell said. “The lessons they are learning now will benefit them their entire lives.
