The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded. When I left a 20-year career in the U.S. Coast Guard to become a freelance writer, I had no prospects at all. What I did have was a friend who found for me my room in a New York apartment building. It didn’t even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom. I immediately bought a used typewriter and felt like a genuine writer.
After a year or so, however, I still hadn’t got a break and began to doubt myself. It was so hard to sell a story that barely made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write. I had dreamed about it for many years. I wasn’t going to be one of those people who died wondering. What if？ I would keep putting my dream to test (even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure). This is the shadow-land of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.

I'm hardly alone, which is bad news for the world's oceans. Partly because more and more sushi is demanded, we're fast fishing out our seas. Some researchers estimate that if we don't change the way we harvest the oceans, all the commercial fisheries (捕鱼业) in the world could disappear as early as 2048. That could mean no more fish to buy in your local supermarket.
Fortunately, scientists are looking for ways to fish sustainably (可持续地). One method is a quota system that sets a limited amount to every fisherman or corporation who wants a share of the total catch for certain sea area. These catch shares get rid of the possibility to over fish.A recent study in Science found that the system can prevent fishery from dying and even make it better over time. "It's truly a win-win situation," says Steven Gaines, a marine biologist at the University of California at Santa Barbara and one of the study's co-authors.
Consumers also can help save the seas through the fish they buy. California's Monterey Bay Aquarium Institute is coming out with pocket guides to sustainable sushi. The researchers base their ratings on the health of a wild fish's population as well as the impacts of fish-farming operations. Oysters, for example, grow fast and can be farmed sustainably, but salmon can't. The researchers also take fishing practices into consideration: catching big-eye tuna (金枪鱼) can cause its nearby fish to die, which certainly no one wants to see. It is hoped that, by making the right choice, consumers can encourage businesses to fish in a more sustainable way.

Sal's卫星公司向纽约和洛杉矶的订户发送电视节目。两地订户群体的需求曲线分别为:
(1)纽约市场和洛杉矶市场的利润最大化价格和数量各是多少？
(2)因为在五角大楼配置了一颗新卫星，洛杉矶人可以接收到Sal's在纽约发送的节目,而纽约人也可接收到Sal's在洛杉矶的播出。这样纽约或洛杉矶的任何人只要在任一城市付费就可收到Sal's的节目。因此Sal's只能定单一的价格。它会定什么价格，以及它在纽约和洛杉矶能销售多大数量呢？
(3)在上面的(1)还是(2)哪种情况下，Sal's是得益的？从消费者剩余的角度，纽约人偏爱哪种情况而洛杉矶人偏爱哪种情况？为什么？
