Question

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.
