做自我介绍英语作文（汇编20篇）

爱国心是通过实践而养成的一种眷恋故乡的感情。

Patriotism is a kind of nostalgic feeling formed through practice.

岁末年初，正当人们准备欢度春节之际，新型冠状病毒感染的肺炎疫情悄然而来，一场阻击病毒疫情的战斗也随之打响。在疫情爆发和防控危险时刻，总有一些我们不知道的无名英雄，他们以“逆行”的姿态为我们筑起一道坚固的“防护墙”，他们在打一场没有硝烟的疫情战，是一条永无退路并且必胜阻击战。他们，就是这个时代的最美逆行者。

Novel coronavirus infection is coming quietly at the beginning of the year,

just as people are ready to celebrate the Spring Festival. A battle against the

virus has also started. At the time of outbreak and prevention and control,

there are always some unknown heroes who build a solid "protective wall" for us

in a "retrograde" attitude. They are fighting an epidemic war without smoke of

gunpowder, which is a never-ending and inevitable resistance war. They are the

most beautiful rebels of this era.

抗击疫情，他是我们的“定海神针”

To fight against the epidemic, he is our "Dinghaishenzhen needle"

1月18日，钟南山院士从广州赶往武汉。1月19日从武汉又赶往北京，凌晨两点才睡觉。1月20日全国电视电话会议新闻发布会，媒体直播连线又是忙到深夜。实际上，钟南山院士一直活跃在科学前线，在来武汉之前，他也没有退休、没有安逸。他曾说：“医院是战场，作为战士，我们不冲上去谁上去?”他是无双国士，更是定海神针!根本就没有什么岁月静好，只是他和他的战友们冒着牺牲的危险替我们负重前行。

On January 18, academician Zhong Nanshan rushed to Wuhan from Guangzhou.

From Wuhan to Beijing on January 19, I went to bed at two oclock in the

morning. On January 20, at the national teleconference press conference, the

live media connection was busy late into the night. In fact, academician Zhong

Nanshan has been active in the front line of science. Before he came to Wuhan,

he didnt retire and have no comfort. He once said: "the hospital is the

battlefield, as soldiers, who dont we rush to?" he is the unparalleled

national, but also the sea god needle! There is no time to be quiet, but he and

his comrades risked the risk of sacrifice to carry forward for us.

抗击疫情，她是我们的“铁娘子”

To fight the epidemic, she is our "Iron Lady"

严丽，她是急诊科医护团队眼里的“铁娘子”。武汉发现新型肺炎后病人骤增，急诊科下夜班后，严丽还要去支援发热门诊，白天黑夜连轴转。”1月20日，严丽带着丈夫和孩子来到机场。临近登机时她却改变主意，决定重回医院，与同事们一起继续抗击新型肺炎，“去机场的路上心就慌慌的，回到医院内心才平静。”孩子不理解，抱着我哭，说我从来就没有兑现过承诺。严丽说，“不是觉得自己高尚，只觉得一线医护人员紧缺，自己一辈子没当过逃兵。这一次也不能离开。”哪有什么白衣天使，只不过是一群孩子换了身衣服，学着前辈的样子和死神抢人。

Yan Li, she is the "Iron Lady" in the eyes of the emergency department

medical team. After the discovery of new pneumonia in Wuhan, the number of

patients increased dramatically. After the night shift in the emergency

department, Yan Li had to go to the fever clinic to support the fever clinic.

She worked day and night. " On January 20, Yan Li arrived at the airport with

her husband and children. She changed her mind and decided to go back to the

hospital to fight against the new pneumonia with her colleagues The child didnt

understand, hugged me and cried, saying that I had never fulfilled my promise.

Yan Li said, "I dont think Im noble. I just feel that there is a shortage of

front-line medical staff. I havent been a deserter in my life. I cant leave

this time. " There is no angel in white, but a group of children changed their

clothes and learned how to rob people with death.

“苟利国家生死以，岂因祸福避趋之”。防疫战场上医护人员那一张张印着红指印的请战书;新闻里笑容腼腆的女护士朴素的语言：“只要穿上白大褂就不害怕了......”武汉医生与家人隔离，白发老母亲隔门叮嘱时的眼泪;除夕夜，各地医护人员紧急集结赴武汉和家人告别时的拥抱;大年三十返岗生产口罩的工人;《爱是桥梁》，春晚的节目为武汉而改变......

"For the sake of the countrys life and death, do you avoid it because of

misfortunes and blessings?". On the battlefield of epidemic prevention, the

doctors letter of invitation printed with red fingers; the plain language of

the female nurse with a shy smile in the news: "as long as you put on the white

coat, you will not be afraid..." Wuhan doctors are separated from their

families, and the tears of the old mother with white hair when she is told by

the door; on New Years Eve, medical staff from all over the world gather to

Wuhan to say goodbye to their families; those who return to work on the 30th of

the new year to produce masks Workers; love is a bridge, the program of Spring

Festival Gala changes for Wuhan

每当看到电视上那些一身白色“戎装”，战斗在防疫第一线的白衣战士,我就充满虔敬,他们视疫情为敌情,把医院当战场,在没有硝烟的战斗中舍生忘死,以大无畏的精神和钢铁般的意志,谱写了一曲曲光辉壮丽的人生赞歌。

Every time I see those white soldiers in military uniform fighting in the

front line of epidemic prevention on TV, I am full of piety. They regard the

epidemic situation as the enemy, regard the hospital as the battlefield, and

forget to die in the fight without gunpowder smoke. With the spirit of

fearlessness and the will of steel, they compose a glorious and magnificent hymn

of life.

哪有什么岁月静好，不过是有人替你负重前行。只要万众一心，就没有翻不过去的山;只要众志成城，就没有过不去的坎。我们要坚定信心从自身做起。长大之后我们替你们继续前行!武汉加油!

There is no time to be quiet, but someone is carrying the weight for you.

As long as all people are united, there will be no mountains that cannot be

turned over; as long as all people are united, there will be no barriers that

cannot be crossed. We need to be confident and start with ourselves. After

growing up, we will continue to move forward for you! Come on, Wuhan!

请相信待春暖花开之时，我们都可以走上街头，不用口罩，繁华与共，共享春光灿烂!

Please believe that when spring comes, we can all go to the streets,

without masks, and share the bright spring!

It is known to all that China has the history of more than 5,000 years and

the culture influences generations. No matter where people live, they keep the

traditional festivals. Such as the people who live in Chinatown. Though some of

them have been immigrants, they still celebrate the traditional festivals. So in

every corner of Chinatown, the Chinese traditional features can be seen

everywhere. The preservation of the traditional culture is the key to help the

country live so long. After the long period of time, the essence of the culture

part have been inherited while the negative part has been removed. Many culture

even influences the foreign country, such as Confucius Institution, where

foreigners learn Chinese culture and mandarin. Though we are facing the impact

of Hollywood culture, the traditional festivals provides an important way to

save local culture.

From the earliest time to the present days, viewpoints concerning human

nature were vehemently contended among prominent philosophers. Mencius believed

human nature is good, and people are naturally inclined toward virtue. While,

Xunzi deemed human are basically evil who need to be changed by man-made.

As it is widely known, human nature is that indestructible matrix upon

which the character is built. Accordingly, to a large extent, the basic nature

of human beings cannot be changed. On the other hand, each of us is naturally

endowed with diverse both qualities and personalities, which makes us unfold an

apparently distinct character. Then, it is hard for one to change his nature

fundamentally. Regardless of whether nature is innate or habitus acquired, they

were both a consistently developing courses that cannot be easily changed in a

short time. Last but not the least, external influencing factors, like

religious, education and even social institutions can merely direct our nature

on account of the most limited control. Thus, it is only the surface that is

capable of alteration, improvement and refinement.

In a word, the basic nature of human beings does not and cannot change and

also no one can fundamentally change his nature in the short time. But people

can make it perfect.

Save the Wild Animals

Many wild animals are facing the danger of extinction, because the environment that they are living in has changed greatly. For example, with the developmet of cities, the using of insecticide and serious pollution, their living areas have become narrowcr and narrower. Many of the wild animals, now are confronted with food crisis. At the same time, man is killing off species just for getting their fur, skin, horns, teeth and meat.

In order to protect our resources of ecology, people should realize that the loss of any species is at least the loss of source of knowledge and a source of natural beauty. There fore, measures of the following should be taken: pollution standards are made to keepdown poisons; killing off certain rare species is prohibited; national parks should be set up as wild life, reserves.

Only if we human beings take some drastic measures can wild animals be preserved.

保护野生动物

许多野生动物正面临绝种的危险，因为它们生活的环境发生了极大的变化。譬 如，随着城市的发展，杀虫剂的使用和严重的污染，野生动物的生活区域变得越来越狭小。许多野生动物目前正面临着食物方面的危机。同时，为了获取野生动物的毛、皮、角、牙齿和肉，人类正在屠杀野生动物。

为了保护生态资源，人们应当意识到任何物种的缺失，至少意味着知识资源和自然美的缺失。因此，应采取以下措施：制订污染标准以降低有毒物质;严禁杀害某些稀有物种;应建立国家公园作为野生动植物保护区。

我们只有采取一些有力措施，才能保护野生动物。

when we think of halloween, we think of "trick or treat", pumpkins, jack o lanterns, vampires and haunted houses.

but do you know the origin of halloween? why does it fall on 31 october? what kind of festival is it? why is it so creepy?

halloween dates back to a celtic festival called samhain. november 1 is the new year of the celts, who lived in europe more than a thousand years ago. this is the day which marked the end of summer and harvest.

the celts believed that on the night of october 31, ghosts of the dead would return to earth. the celts celebrated samhain by dressing up in costumes with animal heads and having bonfires.

many celts settled in britain and ireland, where the festival became popular. those who moved to america took the tradition with them.

nowadays, most people celebrate halloween but only for fun. they are not worried about ghosts.

kids in america will dress up as devils or angels and will go from house to house calling "trick or treat", playing mischievous tricks and getting sweets.

americans spend more money on halloween than christmas! in xx, more than hk$45 billion was spent on halloween. and hk$15 billion of that was spent on candy alone!!!

kids in britain also dress up at halloween. they visit houses, sing songs or tell a joke to get sweets. many go to halloween parties and play games like "ducking for apples". you must pick up an apple in water but you can only use your mouth. try it!

With the coming of the NewYear.People all over the country are immersed in

an atmosphere of happiness. In the meantime,a war without smoke is about to

begin. In WuHan,CHINA.Because people are greedy and do not take the law

seriously,people were infected with the new virus from the wild animal.The virus

spreads very quickly.Many people died in a short time.WuHan has become a major

disaster area.After a short while,the virus began to spread throughout CHINA.The

stmosphere of happiness was gradually replaced by panic and sadness.It is the

Spring Festival holiday,the turnover is huge.This make the disease more

difficult to control.The national government took active measures to control the

disease.In these difficult times,we know and familiar with many selfless

people.They are front-line workers,hard working behind the scenes,medical staff

volunteers and so on.Even the elderly ZhongNanShan academician also insisted on

the first line.People all over the country donated money and materials for the

disasterareas.They all have a heart of dedication and responsibility.The whole

nation is confident to win the war without smoke.Behind this outbreak we see the

unity of chinese people.It also sees some serious problems.Many people dont

obey the law and take chances.To some extent,this is reflected in the inadequate

supervision of some national departments.I sincerely hope that the state

department will improve their supervision.Let lwabreakers have no opportunity to

do some harmful things.As a chinese citizen,we must obey the law and spread

positive energy in society.As the new youth of the new age,we should actively

maintain social harmony and contribute to the prospercity of the country.

随着新年的到来，全国人民都沉浸在幸福的气氛中。与此同时，一场没有硝烟的战争在中国武汉即将开始。由于人们贪婪，不重视法律，人们被从野生动物身上感染了这种新病毒。病毒传播很广快点。很多人们很快就死了。武汉成了大灾难区域。之后不久，病毒开始在中国各地传播。快乐的气氛逐渐被恐慌和悲伤所取代。正是春节长假，人口流动量巨大。这使疾病更难控制。那个国家政府采取了积极措施控制这种疾病。在这个困难时期，我们认识并熟悉许多无私的人。他们是一线工作者，在幕后埋头苦干，医务人员志愿者等等开。甚至老钟南山院士也坚持在一线。全国人民为灾区捐款捐物。他们都有一颗奉献和责任心。全国人民都有信心赢得这场战争烟。在后面这次爆发，我们看到了中国人民的团结。它也看到了一些严重的问题。很多人们不遵守法律，冒险。这在一定程度上反映在一些国家部门监管不力。我衷心希望国务院加强对他们的监督。让我们的人没有机会做一些有害的事事情。比如作为一个中国公民，我们必须遵守法律，在社会上传播正能量。作为新时期的新青年，我们要积极维护社会和谐，为国家富强作出贡献。

With the spread of the consciousness of environmental protection, the word

“low-carbon” has been very popular in life. We can find it in many aspects, such

as low-carbon products, low-carbon consumption, and low-carbon travel and so on.

Generally speaking, more and more people are advocating “low-carbon”

lifestyle.

As implied in the name, “low-carbon” lifestyle is a kind of new pattern of

lifestyle which aims to lowering the carbon dioxide emission in living as much

as possible. For example, some office workers are not proud of driving private

cars from work to home any more but pride themselves on riding or taking public

transportation. In addition, they advocate recycling water and saving energy as

much as they can.

As college students, we also make some contribution in our daily life to

reduce the emission of the carbon dioxide. For example, switch off the light

when leaving and save water. In addition, we should use our knowledge and action

to arouse others’ concern about the importance of lowering emission of carbon

dioxide and lead them to lead a “low-carbon” life.

Nine nine Chongyang， as with the "long" is a homonym， in the nine figures is the largest number， the meaning of life for a long time。 In ， our country the annual September 9 set as a festival for the elderly， cleverly combining traditional and modern， become respect for the elderly， and love for the elderly， help the elderly Festival。

Countries of the provisions of the Chung Yeung Festival this day is a festival for the elderly， the purpose of which is to use this to carry out activities to allow people to set up the consciousness of respecting。 The country has established a general acceptance of the festival， the important purpose is to remind the whole society for a certain thing， and not the only thing to do is to do。

Any activity that wants to be able to get the effect to be able to maintain a long enough time to show its significance。

九九重阳，因为与“久久”同音，九在数字中又是最大数，有长久长寿的含意。年，我国把每年的九月九日定为老人节，传统与现代巧妙地结合，成为尊老、敬老、爱老、助老的老年人的节日。

今年的重阳节即将来临。对于你来说，重阳节计划怎么过呢?如果你是年轻人，重阳节这天你可能是送给了爸爸妈妈一份礼物，或者带他们出门旅游，放松心情;或者给家里打了一个的电话，让温馨的问候，成为暖心的礼物。如果你是老人，可能受到了一些组织的慰问，或者被邀请去参加活动。然后节日结束了，但是大家千万不要像没事人一样该怎么过就怎么过，一定还要继续尊敬老人，爱护老人、关心老人。

国家把重阳节这一天规定为敬老节，目的是用这种开展活动的方式来让人们树立尊老敬老的意识。国家设立一个社会普遍接受的节日，重要的目的在于提醒全社会对于某件事情的关注，而不是这件事情只有到了节日才想起来做。

任何一个希望能够获得效果的活动都要维持足够长的时间才能显示出它的意义来。

其实，老人们要求很简单，公园散步的陪伴、周末回家的晚餐、电话的问候，都能让他们感到无比的满足与幸福。

孝敬老人不仅仅要在重阳节这天，而且要时常提醒自己，平时对老人关心得够不够。又是一年重阳节，从现在开始就让我们更多地去关爱老人吧，那才是有意义的重阳节。

October 1st is the national day of our country, which is a public holiday

for the whole country. It’s an important day that marks the beginning of PRC. On

that day, there are plenty of celebrations holding throughout the country, from

the central government to the general people. And public places, including big

squares, parks are decorated in festive theme. In recent years, the national

holiday means the golden week as well, which is a short holiday that all people

expect to. With the improvement of living standards, people have more money and

desire to travel and the golden week is a good chance for them. Besides, for

those people who would not go out, it’s a good time to have a good rest as well.

Therefore, the national day means a lot to the Chinese.

When I don’t have to go to school, I like to join many activities. I have

many hobbies. I will play all kinds of sports, like basketball, football and so

on. But I like tennis most. Tennis is an elegant sport. Playing tennis makes me

happy, I not only become fit, but also learn to be patient.

Dear Charlie,

I’m LiHua, president of the Student Union. I’m writing to invite you to our Dragon Boat Festival celebration, which is to be held in the Lecture Hall at 14:00 next Monday.

The Duanwu or Dragon Boat Festival, generally celebrated on the fifth month of the Chinese lunar calender, falls on June 18 this year. It is one of the oldest festivals in China, with a history of more than 2,000 years. Legend holds that this festival is in memory of Qu Yuan, a patriotic poet during the Warring States Period.

In the celebration, you can enjoy a performance about that legend and watch live broadcast of dragon boat racing. In the meanwhile, varieties of Zongzi, an essential food for this unique occasion, are available, which take different shapes and various fillings. Come and join us!

Your early reply is highlyappreciated!

Yours,

Li Hua

Depending on personal experience, personality type and emotional concern,

we find that some people hold the idea of living in the country, while others

prefer living in the city. In my opinion, I prefer the city life, though it has

advantages and disadvantages.

First of all, city life is very colorful. City is the center of the

surrounding area. So, it is also the most booming place having the best things.

There are many great things and wonderful activities in the city, while there

isn’t in the country. For example, there are KFC, wonderful shopping mall,

delicious food from various places, dancing club, different kinds of activities

and so on. We can also learn the culture from all the countries. Despite city

life is so wonderful, it still has many disadvantages. Nowadays, with the

improvement of people’s living standard, people have more cars and more people

come to city, and then the city becomes more and more crowd. As a result,

traffic jam emerges, which makes great inconvenience for people to go out.

What’s worse, the air pollution becomes serious day by day, which is bad for

people’s health.

To sum up, every coin has two sides. Living in the city also has good side

and bad aspect. Whether like living in city or not depends on individual

thinking. As myself, I like living in city though I know the disadvantage of

living in city.

With the development of science and technology, our lives have changed a

lot in the past century. Many things that wouldn’t happen before have come into

reality now. Therefore, our lives will change as well in the future. Our pace of

live will greatly speed up, because we will help many machines to finish our

work. Many things can be done autonomously. Therefore, people will have more

time for fun. People can travel the outer space freely. Space shuttle can bring

people to planets far from the earth. Human beings may live in other planets.

Besides, our environment will be much better than now, because some effective

measures are taken to protect the environment. Earth is still a beautiful home

for human.

August 15th in Chinese Lunar Calendar is the Mid-Autumn Day. It is one of

the most important traditional festivals in China.

On that day people usually go back home to have family reunion . Each

family will have the members get together to have a big dinner. The most popular

food is moon cakes. They are round and look like the moon.

The moon is the brightest this night. People eat the delicious food while

they are enjoying a beautiful full moon in their yard. At this time, some old

people would like to tell many past events and tell the children a story about

the rabbit on the moon . The children really believe that there is a rabbit on

the moon. They hope to go to the moon and have a look one day.

What a great festival!

中秋节

农历八月十五日是中秋节，在中国它是最重要的传统节日之一。

在那一天，人们通常回家与家人团聚，一家人聚在一起饱餐一顿。最流行的食品是月饼，它们圆圆的就像月亮。

中秋节晚上的月亮特别地圆。人们都在自家的院子里一边赏月一边吃着可口的月饼。这个时候

，一些老人会讲述许多古老的故事，如月亮上的玉兔，孩子们信以为真，他们真想有一天登上月球看个究竟。

中秋是个美好的节日啊!

My name is Wang Xiaochuan. I’m eleven. I live in a small house in Taicang.

I study at Zhu Diwen Primary School. I have seven lessons every day. I study

Chinese, Maths, English, PE, Science, Art, Music, Social Science and Computer

Studies. I like Science, It’s interesting. I don′t like Art, I can’t draw very

well. I usually play games with my good friends, Sun Zhe and Gu Xu ,on Sundays.

I like swimming, playing badminton and playing table tennis.I like eating fruit,

just like strawberries, watermelons and peaches.

Everyone will have some unforgettable memories. These big and small

memories are like the shining stars in my memory, and one of them is the first

time I read science books.

It was the second day of the summer vacation for Daban. It was sunny and a

little sultry in the morning. My father said to me happily, "son, today my

father will take you to climb the mountain and enjoy the beautiful scenery on

the top of the mountain." I readily agreed. So we came to the famous Dayang

mountain in Dongzhu.

My father and I went to the foot of the mountain, looked up, and could not

see the top of Dayang mountain. My father said, "climb to the top of the

mountain and you can enjoy the most beautiful scenery in the world." I look

forward to my father.

At the beginning of climbing, I was full of energy and very relaxed. But

when I climbed to the middle of the mountain, my body became heavier and heavier

like lead. Dad saw me like this, so we rested for a while, and continued to

climb up. After a long time, I saw that I was exhausted when I was near the top

of the mountain. I begged dad to take me down the mountain. Dad encouraged me:

"hold on a little longer, and soon I will be at the top of the mountain Well,

the ancients said, "you will be at the top of the mountain and see all the small

mountains." dont you want to experience this feeling? " I gasped and said, "Dad,

I really cant climb. I cant move my legs anymore. I want to go back..." Dad

helplessly took me down the mountain.

At that time, I didnt stick to it. Unfortunately, I missed the beautiful

scenery at the top of the mountain. Ive learned that if I do anything, work hard

and stick to it to the end, there will be gains. Study is also, persist in the

end will achieve good results.

In the current society, with the rapid development of the Internet,

shopping on the internet has been a fashion especially among the youngsters.

Online shopping has made our daily life become more convenient and feel

comfortable. In the first place, shopping on the Internet can save much time so

they would be able to concentrate more time and energy on their academic study.

In the second place, the Internet has provided kinds of goods to consumers, and

we can save much money through online shopping.

However, every coin has two sides, online shopping also has shortcomings.

We maybe buy some fake products online because of lacking of the face to face

communication with sellers. What’s more, the delivery will increase the risk of

items’ damage.

Weighing up these two arguments, I prefer the former, because shopping on

the internet has become more and more important to us in our daily life. We

should follow the footsteps of the times.

The great writer gorky once said: "books are the ladder of human progress."

"He spoke such a truth: actually the human to hard climbing, climbing a ladder

of books. The books are made of ladder above, is a resplendent and magnificent

palace of knowledge, therefore, we must try to climb, to learn from.

Human knowledge to create wealth, as the vast ocean, extensive and

profound. People often think of elementary school, middle school and university

studies described as the "everybody" on climbing, in the "university" swim in.

So, we should read more books and books to purify the mind, in the book

knowledge to enrich themselves.

In our life, if always too passively reading, tend to be less than the

pleasure of reading. With a scholarly paper, open a little tenderness, and then

quietly looked at the text as time moves slip from your eyes... At this time,

you will feel that reading is a matter of how to make people happy! Reading is a

kind of mood, the elegant comfortable is the best psychological reagent. Go to

the reading, you will have more found.

Clearly if we are to participate in the society in which we live we must

communicate with other people.

A great deal of communicating is performed on a person-to-person basis by

the simple means of speech.

If we travel in buses, buy things in shops, or eat in restaurants, we are

likely to have conversations where we give information or opinions, receive news

or comment, and very likely have our views challenged by other members of

society.

Face-to-face contact is by no means the only form of communication and

during the last two hundred years the art of mass communication has become one

of the dominating factors of contemporary society.

Firstly, inventiveness has led to advances in printing, telecommunications,

photography, radio and television.

Secondly, speed has revolutionized the transmission and reception of

communications so that local news often takes a back seat to national news,

which itself is often almost eclipsed by international news.

No longer is the possession of information confined to a privileged

minority.

In the last century the wealthy man with his own library was indeed

fortunate, but today there are public libraries.

Forty years ago people used to flock to the cinema, but now far more people

sit at home and turn on the TV to watch a program that is being channeled into

millions of homes.

Communication is no longer merely concerned with the transmission of

information.

The modern communication industry influences the way people live in society

and broadens their horizons by allowing access to information, education and

entertainment.

The printing, broadcasting and advertising industries are all involved with

informing, educating and entertaining.

Although a great deal of the material communicated by the mass media is

very valuable to the individual and to the society of which he is a part, the

vast modern network of communications is open to abuse.

However, the mass media are with us for better, for worse, and there is no

turning back.

There is a saying that man proposes, god disposes, which means man plan the

things and the rest of the outcome lies in the luck. This saying reflects the

connection between hard-work and luck, which is though sometimes we have worked

so hard, luck occupies great position, the unexpected things happen and refrain

us from succeeding. In order to be successful, people work so hard, they believe

they can achieve their goals, but lacking luck stops them achieving their goals.

So working hard doesn’t mean bringing people success directly, they just need to

try more times, without luck, they still can make their goals. Luck can help

people close to success, without hard-work, they can’t be successful. Hard-work

and luck make people realize their goals, but without luck, people still can

make it by trying more times.
