Now net fiction(小说), also called computer fiction, is popular in more than 80 countries.
To write computer fictions, the writers don’t have to think about making any plot. Like reporters, they just go to a lot of places and collect materials：what most men and women want, their ideas about life and love, their happiness and sufferings and emotions. All these materials are fed into the computer to be processed and classified. Then the writers just pick some materials from every part and fill in some details and a story is made up.
The first computer fiction was edited by 13 editors and published in Canada in 1976. It was a great success and 45 million copies were sold. Seeing this new process as profit-making(赢利的), a big American publishing company bought over the majority of the 13 Canadian editors and soon a series of computer fictions were published in the United States.
All the computer fictions have very romantic titles. The heroines always about 20, while the hero is a 30 to 40 bachelor(单身的), handsome, with money and power.
The hero and the heroine have a happy reunion(团聚) after all kinds of misunderstandings. Computer fictions are enjoyed and bought by most women readers of the west. But people doubt if they have any literary value. 1. When writing computer fictions, the writers _________. A. think hard

C. express what they want to
