[00:00.76]易考范文十七

[00:04.26]As is vividly 1 shown in the picture,

[00:08.41]a football game is being broadcast on TV.

[00:12.02]The game is proceeding 2 under a rainy weather.

[00:15.52]A loyal football fan stands on a stool,

[00:19.02]holding an umbrella over the TV set,

[00:21.98]so that the player will not be drenched 3 with rain.

[00:25.26]At first sight, the picture may seem a little ridiculous.

[00:29.41]But upon reflection,

[00:31.05]we will realize that it aims to reveal a quality important in our life—perseverance 4.

[00:37.40]The man in the picture adheres to his interest.

[00:40.46]Perseverance is an optimistic attitude toward life and an indispensable factor in success.

[00:47.57]When we strive for our dreams we will unavoidably encounter many difficulties,

[00:53.04]which, however, can be overcome if we do not quit.

[00:56.98]Without perseverance, we couldn't have defeated SARS;

[01:01.24]without perseverance, we couldn't have rescued so many survivors 5 of the Sichuan earthquake;

[01:07.80]without perseverance, we `couldn't have hosted the Beijing Olympics so successfully.

[01:13.93]In contrast, many people end up tasting the bitterness of failure,

[01:19.62]though they desire achievement in their career or studies.

[01:23.44]One of the contributing factors is that

[01:26.29]they fail to persist in clearing the setbacks off their path to triumph.

[01:30.99]Therefore, when confronted with reverses,

[01:34.16]we should hold a perseverant attitude and never give up.

[01:38.21]Let's bear it in mind that rainbow always comes after a storm.
