20．Witchcraft（巫术）was not made a capital offence in Britain until 1563though it was disapproved by Pope Innocent VIII in 1484．From 1484until around 1750，some 200，000witches（女巫）were burnt or hanged in Western Europe．
Most supposed witches were usually old women，and always poor．Any who were unfortunate enough to be an old woman with broken teeth，sunken cheeks and sockets and a hairy lip were assumed to possess the"Evil Eye"．It was more the case if they also had a cat．Many unfortunate women were taken away on this sort of evidence and hanged．
Witch fever held East Anglia for 14terrible months between 1645-1646．A man called Matthew Hopkins，an unsuccessful lawyer，contributed a lot!He became known as the"Witchfinder General"．He had 68people put to death in Bury St．Edmunds alone，and 19hanged at Chelmsfor in a single day．After Chelmsford he set off for other countries．Much of Matthew Hopkins theories of telling a witch were based on Devil's Marks．He took a small mark to be a Devil's Mark and he used his"needle"to see if these marks were insensitive to pain．His"needle"was basically a trick so the unfortunate women never felt any pain．
There were other tests for witches．Mary Sutton of Bedford was put to the swimming test．With her thumbs tied to opposite big toes she was thrown into the river．If she floated she was guilty； if she sank，innocent．Poor Mary floated!
Though many of the acts againsts witchcraft were put to an end in 1736，witch hunting still went on．In 1863，a suspected male witch was drowned in a pond in Headingham，Essex and 1945the body of an elderly farm laborer was found near the village of Meon Hill in Warwickshire．His throat had been cut and his body was pinned to the earth．The murder remains unsolved； however，the man was said，locally，to be a male witch．It seems that belief in witchcraft has not entirely died out．

18．Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family，and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck．I'm not going to say luck，talent，and circumstances（环境）don't come into play because they do．Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence，and that's just the reality of how life is．
However，to succeed in life，one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical（可行的）．And，in addition to that，in order to get really good at something，one needs to spend at least 10，000hours studying and practicing．To become great at certain things，it'll require even more time，time that most people won't put in．
This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love．If you don't enjoy what you do，it is going to feel like unbearable（难以忍受的）pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it．
When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success，you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost．It's sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent，but thinking that way does you no good，and there's a huge chance that you're wrong anyway．
Whatever you do，if you want to become great at it，you need to work day in and day out，almost to the point of addiction（入迷），and over a long period of time．If you're not willing to put in the time and work，don't expect to receive any rewards．Consistent，hard work won't guarantee（保证） you the level of success you may want，but it will guarantee that you will become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into．
