Unit 1
Where there is a will, there is a way. This proverb means that if you are really determined to do something, however difficult it might be, you will 1)eventually find a way to do it well. The 2) premier point is that you must have the will to achieve success. Ninety percent of the failures that occur are due to the fact that there is no strong will involved. Many people simply say that they want something, but they do not make any 3) endeavor to achieve it. So, instead of getting it, they use the poorest excuse to explain the situation away. On many occasions, people tend to 4) bypass every minute obstacle, making the objective impossible to attain. In reality, if they have the will to succeed, they can get rid of the 5) handicaps and achieve their goals. Only those with a(n) 6) committed and focused will and spirit can fight their way to final victory. Many a famous man has the same experience. They have 7) attained their prestige because they have had the will to 8) transcend apparently insuperable (无法克服的) obstacles. Many artists, statesmen, writers and inventors have manged to succeed because they possess a fierce will, which has helped them to accomplish major 9) feats. Therefore, we can see that the main thing which one needs is a strong will. Weak-willed people never climb to the top. They collapse at the 10) slightest use of force against them. Strong-willed people, on the other hand will stand up against all odds and will make it a point to succeed.
有志者事竟成.这句谚语的意思是，如果你真的下定决心去做某件事，不管它多么困难，你最终会找到一种方法做好它。首要的一点是你必须有获得成功的决心。百分之九十的失败都是因为没有强有力的意志。许多人只是说他们想要什么，但他们并没有努力去实现它。所以，他们没有得到，而是用最可怜的借口来解释情况。在许多情况下，人们倾向于绕过每分钟的障碍，使目标不可能达到。事实上，如果他们有成功的意志，他们就能摆脱障碍，实现自己的目标。只有那些意志坚定、意志坚定的人才能为最终胜利而战。许多名人都有同样的经历。他们已经达到了他们的威望，因为他们已经将超越显然是无法逾越的障碍（无法克服的）。许多艺术家、政治家、作家和发明家都有巨大的成功，因为他们拥有一个强烈的意志，这帮助他们完成主要的本领。因此，我们可以看到，一个人需要的主要东西是坚强的意志。意志薄弱的人永远爬不到顶端。他们一点点地使用武力就崩溃了。意志坚强的人，在另一方面，会站起来反对一切困难，并将它成为一个成功点。
