【題目】 Many of the world’s successful people were once failures. Here are the stories of a few of them.
Michael Jordan (born 1963) is one of the greatest basketball players of all time. However, he himself admits that it hasn’t been easy. In a famous advertisement for Nike, he says, “I have missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I have lost almost 300 games. On 26 occasions I have been entrusted(委托) to take the game winning shot, and I missed. I have failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed. |
Albert Einstein (1879-1955) won the Nobel Prize in physics in 1921. However, he wasn’t always considered a “genius”. He didn’t speak until he was four, and couldn’t read until he was seven. His teachers and parents thought he was slow, and he was expelled(開除)from school. He later famously said, “Success is failure in progress” | |||
Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) was one of America’s greatest leaders, taking the country through the Civil War(美國南北戰(zhàn)爭). However, his life was never easy. He started numerous business that failed, he went bankrupt(破產(chǎn))twice and was defeated in 26 campaigns(競選)for public office. He later said, “My great concern is not whether you have failed, but whether you are content with your failure.” | |||
J.K. Rowling (born 1965) is the author of the hugely successful Harry Potter books, and one of the richest women in the world. But before publishing the books, she was penniless, depressed and trying to raise a child on her own. In a speech at Harvard in 2008, she said, “I had failed so greatly. After a short-lived marriage, I was jobless, a lone parent, and as poor as it is possible to be in modern Britain, without being homeless. The fears that my parents had had for me, and that I had had for myself, had both come to pass, and by every usual standard, I was the biggest failure I knew.” | |||
