【答案解析】[范文]
Opportunity and Determination
Everyone dreams of attaining success in his career. However, the way to
success is not a smooth one. It is full of difficulties and obstacles. Whether
one is able to gain success or not depends largely on the attitude he is to
adopt towards difficulties or even failures. Faced with frustrations and
setbacks, those who have a dogged determination can stick to their cause to the
end so that they stand a chance of success. On the contrary, those whose
determination is often weakened by difficulties can end up nowhere.
Determination is the key to success. With a strong determination, one is
able to cope whatever hardships or dangers he may face. Take Sun Yat-sen for
example. In spite of his failures, he continued to make unremitting efforts to
pursue his objective and mortgaged his life to the revolutionary cause. As a
result, he did not fail to live up to the expectations of Chinese people and
eventually overthrew the Qing Dynasty.
In addition to
determination, opportunity is also indispensable to one's success. Without
opportunities, one, sometimes, can hardly display his talents, competence and
abilities. Nor can he have his power into full play. But opportunities seem to
favor those who have inflexible determination and resolute perseverance.
Furthermore opportunities wait for no man. As the saying goes, "Opportunity
knocks but once." Therefore we must utilize every opportunity and not let it
slip away.
