What's your idea about success? Some people say that beginners have all the luck, while others believe that success 1 only with practice. In fact, I feel both of these statements (陈述) are not true all the time. Each is true in some ways 2 not in others.
For example, I went to a drawing competition many years ago and 3 surprisingly. As a prize, I got a film ticket to see Titanic. I was really 4 because it was the first time I had taken part in any competition. Thinking that I might be lucky again, I 5 joining in other art competitions. But the result was that I 6 won again. I accepted the fact that the other people had a 7artistic ability than I did. Art was not something I was especially interested in and I had never practiced the different art skills. So, the8 I produced were not of avery high standard.
These experiences taught me a lot. Though I might have been lucky 9, I also need to put in hard work. As we know, 10 makes perfect, so I believe success builds on less luck and chance.

【解析】
(1)此处句意为“……有些人认为只有多练,成功才能到来”。故选B.
(2)此处与前半句句意“每个观点在某些方面是正确的”意思相反,意为“在其他方面不正确”,应用转折连词but。故选D。
(5)由后文所述 “我”获得了电影票的奖励可推断出,多年前“我”在绘画比赛中获胜了。故选A。
(4)由下文“我”首次参加比赛获胜推断“我”认为自己是幸运的。故选C。
(5)try doing sth.意为“尝试做某事”;forgetdoing sth.意为“忘了已经做过某事”;stopdoing sth.意为“停止做某事”;rememberdoing sth.意为“记得做过某事”。从下文所述可知“我尝试着参加其他的美术比赛”。故选A。

Subject: Studying Date: 10/5/2011
From: Bruce Williams
To: Carlos Barnes
Yes, you're right, Carlos. If you want to learn English well, you should listen to tapes again and again. But when we have tests, I always use my notes to review. The book is good. I write the most important things in my notes.
My friend Mario says he learns a lot by working in a store, but I think I learn more at school. My sister Alice thinks the best way to learn English is to study with friends. But she won't study with me. And my friend Claire thinks vocabulary is important. She's always making lists.
Do you have any other good ideas?
Bruce
