19.What's your idea about success?Some people say that beginners have all the luck,while others believe that success(46)Bonly with practice.In fact,I feel both of these statements(陈述)are not true all the time.Each is true in some ways(47)Dnot in others.
For example,I went to a drawing competition many years ago and(48)Asurprisingly.As a prize,I got a film ticket to see Titanic.I was really(49)Cbecause it was the first time I had taken part in a competition.Thinking that I might be lucky again,I(50)Ajoining in other art competitions.But the result was that I(51)Dwon again.I accepted the fact that the other people had a(52)A artistic ability than I did.Art was not something I was especially interested in and I had never practiced different art skills,so my(53)Dwere not of a very high standard.
These experiences taught me a lot.Although I was lucky(54)C,I also need to put in hard work.As we know,(55)Bmakes perfect.So I believe success builds on less luck and chance.

18.One afternoon many years ago,I got out and had a walk in the(56)Anear my home.Later,I sat down on a bench and had a rest.
I watched a little boy,about 2years old,running freely on the grass as his mother(57)Cfrom a short distance.The boy would fall to the grass,(58)Dand without looking back at his mother,run as fast as he could as if(好像)(59)Bhappened.
When kids fall down,they don't think of the fall as a(60)B.But they think of it as a learning experience.They try and try again(61)Dthey succeed.
I was moved by the(62)Bhe ran.Each time he got up,he looked so confident (自信的) and natural.His only aim(目的) was to run as(63)Bas he could.He was just being a child-just being himself-being completely in the moment.He was not worrying about(64)Csomeone was watching him or not.He only wanted to run and to feel the experience of running fully and freely.
I learned a lot from the boy on that afternoon.And I have successfully brought that(65)Bwith me in my life.

For now,you're still a child.You may be unhappy(51)Cbecause of the fights with your brothers or sisters,but you will think they are(52)Aexperiences when you grow up.You'll be the(53)B who will have to stop the fights!So (54)Cwhen you get angry with your brothers or sisters.It is not always easy,but maybe you can start with just making one day"No Fight Day".Then your mom and dad will be very(55)C.Remember that it is never OK to shout at your brothers or sisters and hurt them.
