答案GPA Means Not Everything Maybe we have already been used to hearing such a comment: that young guy does very well on his study and achieves a high GPA, so he must be something in the future．People always judge a person’s future simply by his GPA without stopping to think whether this judgment makes any sense. There is one short story, saying, failed SAT, lost scholarship, invented rocket. This story raises us a question: does high GPA really mean great achievements? From my point of view, I don’t think that GPA can mean everything, instead, one’s achievements are determined by creative minds, hardwork and opportunities. To begin with, creative minds are sources of new ideas and inventions. One with creative minds usually shows great interests in all things and draws inspiration from the world around him. Nowadays, too many people concentrate on exams rather than study and they study hard simply to get high scores and scholarship. Considering this condition, I am not surprised that many high-GPA-students can neither find jobs nor make academic achievements. Only those who really love to learn can be fully-devoted and have creative minds, like Bill Gates, or Albert Einstein. Secondly，we should attach significant importance to hard work, for action speaks louder than words. Having creative minds is just a beginning and far from enough—we have to work hard to test new ideas and put them into practice. In my childhood I used to read many fairy tales, in which only those who are diligent enough can live a happy life；on the contrary，those who are too lazy to do any work will suffer hunger and homelessness in the end. Fairy tales as they are, they also teach us something: hard work is the only way to bring dreams to reality. Creative minds produce various dreams, but only hard work can prevent these beautiful dreams to become fragile bubbles. At last, opportunity is of the same importance in getting achievements. In history there were so many people who endeavored all his life but could not attain success, like Van Gogh. Van Gogh is not so unfortunate because his talent was finally admired after his death. However, for those who worked hard but died in obscurity, we can do nothing but heave a sigh. In conclusion, a person’s achievements are not determined by high GPA but by creative minds, hardwork and opportunities. If a creative and hard-working person can grasp good opportunities, he is likely to achieve higher goals even without a high GPA.
