What’s your idea about success? Some people say that beginners have all the luck, while others believe that success 1 only with practice. In fact, I feel both of these statements (陈述) are not true all the time. Each is true in some ways 2 not in others.
For example, I went to a drawing competition many years ago and 3 surprisingly. As a prize, I got a film ticket to see “Titanic”. I was really 4 because it was the first time I had taken part in any competition, Thinking that I might be lucky again, I 5 joining in other art competitions, But the result was that I 6 won again. I accepted the fact that the other people had a 7 artistic ability than I did. Art was not something I was especially interested in and I had never practiced the different art skills. So, the 8 I produced were not of a very high standard(水平).
These experiences taught me a lot. Though I might have been lucky 9 , I also need to put in hard work. As we know, 10 makes perfect. So I believe success builds on less luck and chance.

My parents had some strange rules when my sister and I were growing up. For example, they never 1 us soda or juice. Our choice was water or iced tea 2 no sugar. My mom’s 3 for it was that she didn’t like kids who only drank sweet drinks, or worse, kids who did not like 4 ! She wanted to teach us to like water or 5 unsweetened drinks that did not come in a bottle. We, on the other hand, wanted to 6 a coke when we ate out.

Learning to Accept
I learned how to accept life from my father. 1 , he did not teach me to learn to accept when he was strong and healthy, but when he was 2 and ill.
My father was 3 a strong man who loved being active, but a terrible illness 4 all that away. Now he can 5 walk, and he must sit quietly in a chair 6 . Even talking is 7 . One night, I went to visit him with my sisters. We started 8 about life, and I told them about one of my 9 . I said that we must very often give things up as we grow —our youth, our beauty, our friends -- but it always seems that after we give something up, we get 10 in its place. Then suddenly my father spoke up. He said, “But Peter, I gave up 11 ! What did I get?” I thought and thought, but I could not think of anything to say. 12 , he answered his own question: “I 13 the love of my family.” I looked at my sisters and saw tears in their eyes, 14 hope and thankfulness, I was also 15 by his words.
