I don’t believe that there is any one recipe for success. 36 —and not all of them are needed for success. The more factors you have on your side, the more likely you are to succeed, and positive attitude is just one of those factors. Here are some additional factors that are also important.
Knowledge
A strong body of knowledge about the area in which you wish to succeed is often one of the key building blocks of success. 37 — read and try out the foundational materials and push yourself into challenging areas to build your knowledge.
Clear goals and planning
Much like a trip, it’s a lot easier to get where you want to go if you know where you’re going and spend the time planning the route you’ll take to get there. Think about what your definition of success exactly is, and then identify some of the things that need to be done to help you move towards it.
38 Hard work is another key to finding success. You don’t become a champion without practicing every day. If you want to succeed in a certain area, work hard in that area and go beyond what others are doing — deliberate practice is one big key.
Luck and opportunity
Luck and opportunity also play an important role in success — 39 . You can improve your luck by making as many strong personal contacts as you can and sharing what you have to increase their “luck” and “opportunities”.
Cooperation and support
40 — the fact that others are working in small ways to help you succeed rather than hinder you. A spouse telling you that you can do this is going to go a lot further than a spouse telling you you’ll never make it.
A. You can build this by pushing yourself B. the most important factor C. Consistent effort
D. Instead, I believe success is the result of a combination of a lot of different factors E. Deliberate work
F. sometimes things just click due to forces outside your control G. Along with luck comes cooperation

We voluntarily participated in an activity organized by our school in Saturday. We got together at the Goodwill Square and handed out leaflets to passers-by, tell them the significance of environmental protection. The leaflets soon attract the attention of the public. Some of us also delivered a public speech to tell people some knowledges about how to protect the environment. They were also told where to take action in a properly and efficient way. This activity was offered us a chance to contribute to our society but I have learned much from it. I think someone should be concerned about our environment and take active part in improving it.
