英语四级作文1400字：成功人士与我们的差别(The Differences between Successful People and Us)
most of us feel envious of famous and successful people in the world. we do not understand why they are so popular and honored while we are mere simple common folks. we all have a misconception that these people are prosperous just because they are especially gifted or because they are just "lucky".
but the fact is that most great persons have minds which are the same as, or perhaps even simpler and duller than that of ours. yet, we refuse to believe so because our misconceptions have taken root in our stubborn minds.why, then, are their triumphs so great? it is because they are apt to fighting with difficulties with perseverance, without fatigue and undergo sufferings without minding the wounds. they are aware that the road to their destination will be filled with hardships. their endurance is more powerful than that of ours for the simple reason that they submit without complaint to each storm in life. to illustrate this, let us take columbus as an eample. what difficulties and courage he had had before he discovered the new world. had he fallen into despair, america might not have been discovered so early.
all of us wish to have a bright future. those who remain in idleness and think that great people are different from us will never fulfill our ambitions. those who think we are the same as great people, and believe in hard work will make our dreams come true.
