Nowadaya many people believe in luck. They believe it in love， in tests， promotions， etc. I think of luck in many respects. It does not come alone. Luck and opportunity go hand in hand with hard work and knowledge.
    I wan once assigned to work deep in the mountain. Being from a poor family， friendless and having no influential relative to rely on， I cursed my luck and let myself drift aimlessly and idled my time away until one day I realizcd that I could better myself by working bard at my lessons and excel in academic studies. Unsatisfied with my surroundings， I could not sleep at night. Listening to the sound of water rushing down the mountain， I felt I must keep going on just like the water. So I used to get up and read early in the morning when it was still dark and quiet. While others were sleeping soundly， I was already up in my study， reading.
    Hard work is rewarding. When the college entrance cxamlnatlon came， I took it without hesitation. As a result， I distinguished myself in the test. New I am at college， majoring in my favorite subject， Enghsh.
    I think luck is nowhere to be found but in my own hands. With held work we can be more knowledgeable and with knowledge comes good luck.
    論緣
    現在，許多人在戀愛、考試或晉升等問題上信緣聽命。我認為緣是多方面的，而不是孤立的。緣或機遇與勤奮和知識緊密相連。
    我曾經被分在深山工作，由于家境貧寒，無親無故，無勢可仗，便自認倒霉，隨波逐流，直到有一天，我意識到可以通過學業(yè)出眾來提高自我。對環(huán)境的不滿使我夜不能寐。聽著山間嘩嘩的流水，我決定要像流水那樣奔流不息。凌晨，周圍一片漆黑、寂靜，我就起來看書，當別人在睡夢中時，我已在書房讀書了。
    功夫不負有心人。高考來臨了，我毫不猶豫地報考，并以優(yōu)異的成績考取了英語專業(yè)。
    我認為運氣就在我們手中。書山有路勤為徑，學海無涯苦作舟。有了知識就有好運。
