我们都是成功者

  ①说到成功,人们有一个错误的观念:成功只等于成名。有人认为,只有扭转乾坤的壮举,才算是成功的举动;有人认为,只有领袖、名人,称得上家的人,才算是成功者;有人则干脆断言世界上没有一个成功者,因为人生最终的结局是悲剧——后人肯定超越前人。这实在是一种可怕的自卑。

  ②其实,我们都是成功者,因为成功是一种感觉,一种自我意识的主观感觉。如果我们把自己的每一点进步,哪怕只是微小的进步,都看做是一次成功,都认认真真地品味一番,那么,幸福和快乐就会长伴于我们身边,我们的人生也就会变得格外的丰富和生动。不是吗?作为一名学生,他考试及格了,成绩提高了,这是成功,应当感到高兴;作为一个农民,他播下的种子发芽了,庄稼收割了,这也是成功,也应当感到高兴。在更多的时候,成功无需旁人认可,也不需要别人来裁判;我们也不要把成功的刻度画得太高,不要把成功看得过于神圣。

  ③然而人的一生,不可能永远一帆风顺,不可避免要遭受这样那样的挫折和失败。每经过一次失败,对事物的认识就深入一步;对人生的感情就加深了许多,自己的意志就增强了不少。这种种经历和感受,不是另一种意义上的成功之路吗?不也应该感到快乐吗?否则,我们就会对人生失去一份应有的信心,“面对困难,我们就会望而却步。”

  ④大胆而自豪地承认成功吧。认认真真地品味自己的每一次成功,从品味中汲取动力,开启智慧,从而获得更大的成功,这也许就是人生的意义所在。

1、第②自然段中“幸福和快乐就会长伴于我们身边,我们的人生也就会变得格外的丰富和生动”的原因是什么呢?

Meet the “Tutor Kings and Queens”

“If you want to be a top tutor, it definitely helps if you are young and attractive. Students look at your appearance,” said Kelly Mok, 26, a “tutor queen” at King's Glory, one of Hong Kong's largest tutorial establishments.

Richard Eng from Beacon College, a former secondary school teacher, is often credited with being the first of Hong Kong's “star tutors”. “In school all the teachers look the same, there's no excitement,” he said.

The celebrity tutor phenomenon is a result of the huge growth in out­of­school tutoring in Asia. It is fuelled by highly pressured examination systems and ambitious parents wanting their children to secure places at top universities and high­status secondary schools.

In societies where success is_equated_with good exam results, parental anxiety converts into a “steady stream of revenue(收入)” for tutoring establishments, according to a study by the Asian Development Bank (ADB).

The tutoring industry, or “shadow education” as the ADB calls it, has become very widespread in Asia, fed by the growth in universities and the rising proportion of school leavers aiming for university. Hong Kong University's professor Mark Bray, one of the authors of the ADB study, said a staggering 72% of final­year school students in Hong Kong now go to private tutors.

It's not just Hong Kong. Tutoring has “spread and intensified(强化) in Asia and become more commercialized,” said Professor Bray. In South Korea, 90% of primary school children attend such classes. In China, New Oriental Education and Technology has grown to become one of the largest tutoring schools in Asia with around 2.4 million students this year. In South Korea, Thailand, Sri Lanka and India, tutorial schools use star tutors to attract even more students.
