高考英语写作指导:范文汇总-Opportunity

  The air we breathe is so freely available that we take it for granted. Yet
without it we could not survive more than a few minutes. For the most part, the
same air is available to everyone, and everyone needs it. Some people use the
air to sustain them while they sit around and feel sorry for themselves. Others
breathe in the air and use the energy it provides to make a magnificent life for
themselves.
          Opportunity is the same way. It is everywhere. Opportunity is so freely
available that we take it for granted. Yet opportunity alone is not enough to
create success. Opportunity must be seized and acted upon in order to have
value. So many people are so anxious to "get in" on a "ground floor
opportunity", as if the opportunity will do all the work. That's impossible.
          Just as you need air to breathe, you need opportunity to succeed. It takes
more than just breathing in the fresh air of opportunity, however. You must make
use of that opportunity. That's not up to the opportunity. That's up to you. It
doesn't matter what "floor" the opportunity is on. What matters is what you do
with it.
