第二节读写任务 (共1小题,满分25分)
阅读下面的短文,然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。
There are a lot of things said about opportunity. Some people say it comes along once in a blue moon(罕见). Some people say opportunity only knocks once. So-called “once in a lifetime” opportunities do exist, but some say they only favour those lucky dogs.
All these sayings or ways of thinking seem to leave one powerless. They suggest that opportunity is something that just happens now and then and you have no control over it. What this does is leave us blind to what is out there every single day, and it leaves us too weak to make our own new opportunities.
If you believe in a life where you really can make a dream come true and achieve your goals, you must also believe in the ability to create new opportunities.
OK, so how do you create opportunity? Well, from my very own experience, I can honestly say that it all about who you are being and what you are thinking.
Notice that whenever you are being negative, such as anxious, angry, critical, resentful(厌世的), bitter etc., you very rarely, if ever, see the golden opportunities that surround you. And because you don’t see them, you believe they do not exist.
However, you may also notice that when you are being positive, open, loving, relaxed, peaceful, creative, trusting, and all those things we think of as positive, possibilities just seem to open up all around you.
