世界名人英文简介

1、J.K. Rowling is the pen name she uses as a writer. The J is for Joanne, her real first name, but she prefers to be called Jo. 

Apparently, people only call her Joanne when they're angry with her. The K is made up. Her publisher asked her to write using a name with two initials, but she didn't have a middle name.

J.K.罗琳是她作为作家的笔名。“J”是乔安妮的缩写，她真名中的第一个名字，但她更愿被叫做乔。很显然，人们只有对她生气时才会叫她的全名。她的出版商叫她使用带有两个首字母的笔名，但她真名中没有中名，所以“K”是编造的。

Jo did a few different things before she struck upon the idea of writing children's books. She worked as a researcher and bilingual secretary for Amnesty International and as an English teacher in Portugal. 

The idea for the Harry Potter novels came from nowhere while she was on a train to London. She said,"The characters and situations came flooding into my head".

在她有写儿童书的想法前，乔做过几份不同的工作。她做过调查员、国际特赦组织的双语秘书，在葡萄牙做过英语老师。她在去伦敦的火车上萌生了创作哈利·波特的想法。她说“人物形象和情景涌入了脑海。”

Chan enrolled in the China Drama Academy to study opera while still in his teens. He spent ten years there and worked part-time as a stuntman in the kung fu movie industry.
