Successful People
The message that the top performers in our society / are not the most skilled and shouldn’t be copied, / appears to be different from what we expected. / Yet this report says that those who appear to have achieved the most /are often the beneficiaries of luck, an external, random force. /
Luck is often at work in the lives of the most successful, / which means their achievements aren’t completely attributable to their own skills. / The researcher advocates looking at those who are the second best. / Most of them aren’t relying on lucky chances, / so their performances offer an opportunity to measure real success. /

答案
The message that the top performers in our society / are not the most skilled and shouldn’t be copied, / appears to be different from what we expected. / Yet this report says that those who appear to have achieved the most /are often the beneficiaries of luck, an external, random force. / Luck is often at work in the lives of the most successful, / which means their achievements aren’t completely attributable to their own skills. / The researcher advocates looking at those who are the second best. / Most of them aren’t relying on lucky chances, / so their performances offer an opportunity to measure real success. /
解析
本文主题:成功源自运气还是努力。本文是一篇说明文,介绍了一项调查研究的结果,那就是最成功的人往往是因为运气,而非技能。文中需要注意的较易拼错的单词有“external,random,attributable,opportunity”,需要注意时态和单复数的单词有“advocates,performers,beneficiaries”。
