答案 As is humorously depicted in the drawing above, a snail is moving slowly but steadily, approaching the end of a course while a hare stops to lie down for a rest and falls asleep. What is indicated in the very picture is both meaningful and instructive. The implication of the drawing can be interpreted with respect to perseverance. Napoleon declared, " Victory belongs to the most persevering. " Life is in a sense a battle. The man who thinks to get on by mere smartness and by idling meets failure at last. Behind every great achievement in anyone’ s life lies perseverance. We see this in every human endeavour. We all have read of great musicians, writers and inventors who have created or discovered breakthroughs in human achievement. Invariably they have said that they owe all their success to perseverance. Of all the countless examples, the saga of Colonel Saunders is perhaps one of the most outstanding. The 65-year-old man from Kentucky had a dream to start a chain of fried chicken restaurants all over the world. To realize his dream, he knew that he needed a restaurant owner to go into partnership with him to open the first restaurant and to fry chicken according to the secret recipe he had. Colonel Saunders had knocked on 1,008 doors before he finally found his partner. It is doubtful whether many of us would have had the perseverance to knock even a hundred doors. (240 words)
