When people succeed, it is because of hard work, but luck has a lot to do with it, too. Success without some luck is almost impossible. The French emperor Napoleon said of one of his generals, "I know he’s good. But is he lucky?" Napoleon knew that all the hard work and talent in the world can’t make up for bad luck. However, hard work can invite good luck..
When it comes to success, luck can mean being in the right place to meet someone, or having the right skills to get a job done. It might mean turning down an offer and then having a better offer come along. Nothing can replace hard work, but working hard also means you’re preparing yourself opportunity. Opportunity very often depends on luck.
How many of the great inventions and discoveries came about through a lucky mistake or a lucky chance? One of the biggest lucky mistakes in history is Columbus’ so-called discovery of America. He enriched his sponsors and changed history, but he was really looking for India. However, Columbus’ chance discovery wasn’t pure luck. It was backed up by years of studying and calculating. He worked hard to prove his theory that the world was round.
People who work hard help make their own luck by being ready opportunity knocks. When it comes to success, hard work and luck are always hand in hand.
选项
A、Hard work is the most important thing for one’s success.
B、Hard work may invite good luck.
C、Good luck plays an important role in one’s success.
D、Success has nothing to do with luck.
答案
C
解析
What does the example of Napoleon tell us?
由选项推测本题与hard work和success之间的关系有关。短文中先提出论点:Success without some luck is almost impossible(没有运气的话,成功是不可能实现的),然后引用Napoleon的话语进行论证。由此可见,短文中引用Napoleon的例子就是为了说明luck在成功过程中的重要作用,故正确答案为C)。
