Have you ever heard that “success is a journey, not a destination(終點)” ?As a man aged 30, I believe it’s true. It is, in fact, my law of life(生活準(zhǔn)則). In my eyes, what matters is not necessarily where you are at the end, but what you achieve while you are trying along the way. It means that no matter what, as long as you try, you can never fail. It means you can learn from your mistakes and continue on the journey a little wiser.

I think St. Louis Rams, a professional American football team in Missouri, as a whole shared my law of life. They played every game with their full potential (潛能) instead of letting a few winning games go to their heads. They had the goal of playing in every Super Bowl, a football game played in the US each year on the first Sunday in February. Even though they lost some games, they didn’t give up.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t have the ability to be on top in the end, to win the game, what matters is that you worked hard the whole time. You should understand that success is a non-ending journey. Everyone should realize that someone will win and someone will lose, but what’s important is that both sides need to try their best. After all, it’s not who wins or loses, but how well you play the game and you should remember this in your life.

1.What does the writer mainly talk about in paragraph 1?

A. His biggest success B. His dream for the future

C. His understanding of his law of life D. His achievements in the past few years

2.What does the underlined part “go to their head” mean in Chinese?

A. 去領(lǐng)導(dǎo)辦公室 B. 獲得一等獎 C. 撞到頭部 D. 沖昏頭腦
