成功和机会的看法英语作文【一】
When I learned of the holding of the English Contest on"English Pictorial" in April，I was so confident that I entered my name for it immediately。 And I managed to pass the"written test"and the"oral test"，which were held in the middle of July。 But my nervousness resulted in my failure in the following test。
Also I found that success in an English Contest depends on not only knowledge of
English itself but also knowledge at large。 For example，in the last item there was such a question："Tell the full name of Great Britain and what do people call her flag。"Though I know the answer of the first part of the question，I did not know the name of the flag。 Now I know it＇s called Union Jack。So，you see，confidence and knowledge are two very important things which lead to success。 Do you think so？
成功和机会的看法英语作文【二】
很多人在看待人生时都存在一个误区，那就是更加看重成功，而常常忽略成长。成功是什么？按照世俗的定义，当一个人在社会上取得了财富、名誉和地位时， 我们就说这个人成功了。但事实上，这一成功的定义本身就是有问题的，因为从本质上讲，成功不是得到了什么，而是一个人成长的自然结果。成功不是某种静态的 东西，可以任人平白地“拿来”，因为凡是唾手可得的东西也极有可能随时失去；成功是一种成长，而成长源自一个人的内心，得到了就是永恒。人们在看待成功 时，通常用一种简单粗暴的方式：只看成功本身，而不去探索如何成功的路径。成功是怎么来的？是通过自身艰苦卓绝的努力得到的？还是通过权钱交易的阴谋得到 的？如果一个人得到的财富、名誉和地位不是通过自身不断的完善和光明磊落的努力得到的，那他所谓的成功就是令人鄙视的，这种成功也和成长毫无关系。如果一 个人的成功是和成长相连的，是通过不断努力而取得的，那我们就有理由相信，这样的成功会比较长久。
成长是一个人不断取得成功的加油站。如果一个人继承了一笔遗产、中了一份彩票，或者因为猜对题目而得到了一次高分，这不叫真正意义上的成功，因为 它与成长无关，不可复制，存在极大的偶然性。试想，如果此人想要再继承一份遗产，再中一次彩票，或者再猜对一次题目，还会那么容易吗？但相反，如果一个人 勤奋工作、努力学习，每天进步一点点，最后实现了自己的`梦想，那么他的成功就是一路成长的必然结果，未来更多的成功也可以用同样的方式复制。所以，持续不 断的成功必然和成长相关。当我们谈论一个人成功的故事时，其实就是在谈论他不断成长的过程。并非所有的成功人士都值得尊敬，除非他有一个令人感动的成长过 程。
现在的年轻人只追求成功，不追求成长，这是令人悲哀的事情。这就像造一所房子，只追求房子的高度，却不努力把地基夯实，房子到了一定的高度必定轰然倒 塌。大学是一个人成长的最好时光，认真读书、独立思考、探索真知、广交挚友，让美好的青春留下一路成长的轨迹是令人着迷的一件事情。同时，前途的迷茫、失 恋的痛苦、人生的徘徊、现实的苦闷都是成长的一部分，也是成长的必经之路。可惜，现在的很多大学生认识不到这一点，他们选择用一种浅薄的方式——或打游戏 或上网——来刻意回避自己成长所必须经历的努力和痛苦。不过，任何逃避都只能是暂时的，现在的一时逃避通常意味着未来以成倍的努力和痛苦来偿还。我见过太 多的人，由于在大学时不愿意主动成长，不追求知识，不丰富自己的心灵，不思考自己的人生，结果走上社会后变成了毫无用处的人，在社会的边缘游荡，不能融入 社会，也不被社会所接纳。
只追求成长，不追求成功，让成功成为成长的必然结果——这就是通往成功的最正确的道路。所谓的“只问耕耘，不问收获”其实表达的也是同样的意思：耕耘 是不断的成长，收获是必然的结果；如果我们只向往结果，人生必然拔苗助长，最后枯萎而。我们都见过飞舞的蝴蝶，在展翅飞翔的一刻，她是如此美丽，但请别 忘了，在美丽的背后，她曾经有过毛毛虫笨拙的爬行、蛹化成蝶的辛劳和痛苦。

一位父亲有几个孩子，这些孩子时常发生口角。他丝毫没有办法来劝阻他们，只好让他们看看不合群所带来害处的例子。为了达到这个目的，有一天他叫他们替他拿一捆细柴来。当他们把柴带来时，他便先后地将那捆柴放在每一个孩子的手中，吩咐他们弄断这捆柴。他们一个个尽力去试，总是不能成功。
然后他解开那捆柴，一根根地放在他们手里，如此一来，他们便毫不费力地折断了。于是他就告诉他们说：「孩子们！如果你们大家团结一致，互相帮助，你们就像这捆柴一样，不能被你们的敌人折断；但如果你们自行，你们就将和这些散柴一般，不堪一折了。」

最近，我们小学部举行了古诗朗诵比赛，每班选五人。以前，在学校这样的'活动开展的很多，但是每次都没有我。“功夫不负有心人”，经过自己的努力，在老师和同学们的帮助下，我终于被选中了，我非常珍惜这次机会。

Father had a family of sons who were perpetually quarrelling among themselves. When he failed to heal their disputes by his exhortations, he determined to give them a practical illustration of the evils of disunion; and for this purpose he one day told them to bring him a bundle of sticks. When they had done so, he placed the faggot into the hands of each of them in succession, and ordered them to break it in pieces. They each tried with all their strength, and were not able to do it.
He next unclosed the faggot, and took the sticks separately, one by one, and again put them into their hands, on which they broke them easily. He then
addressed them in these words: "My sons, if you are of one mind, and unite to assist each other, you will be as this faggot, uninjured by all the attempts of your enemies; but if you are divided among yourselves, you will be broken as easily as these sticks."
