答案                  Hard Work, Good Luck and Rare Opportunity
    People who succeed are usually capable and hard-working; but capable and hard-working people do not necessarily succeed.Is there any some other factor which often plays a subtle part in the making of success?
    The military genius Napoleon is said to have once talked about one of his brilliant generals, "I know he’s good. But is he lucky?" Napoleon learned from his own experience that during a military career, one should have had luck on his side —bravery and talent can hardly make up for bad luck in the battlefield.
    But hard work contains the basic essentials for success. Nothing can replace hard work. Very often, diligence and perseverance may "invite" good luck —working hard also means that you’re preparing yourself for opportunity, which depends to a certain extent on luck. And luck sometimes means no more than happening to be in the right place to do the right thing.
    To be sure, many of the great discoveries and inventions came about through a lucky mistake or by a lucky chance. Doctor A. Fleming invented the "wonder drug" penicillin by "accident," and Columbus, by "mistake," discovered America. However, neither Fleming’s invention nor Columbus’ discovery was made by sheer chance or pure luck. They were backed up by years of study, calculation, observation and experiment.
    People who work hard help make their own luck, for they are often ready when opportunity knocks —"opportunity often knocks only once" — they are observant, always alert for what has happened, and good at seizing the opportunity and setting to work to find out why. So for successful people, may we say that hard work and good luck are going hand in hand?
