THE SKELETON OF SUCCESS

成功人士

When he didn't become famous, Einstein lived a hard life, wearing casually. Someone reminded him he should have a decent coat so as to enter the society. He said, “I'm unknown. Even if I wear more handsomely, no one will know me.”

A few years later, Einstein became a world famous scientist, who still wore casually. The man again reminded he should have a coat done quickly, or it would disagree with the fame of a great scientist. Einstein said with a smile, “Now, even if I wear in ragged clothes, people will know me.”

Sometimes, he even wore a sports shirt and a pair of sandals to the University of Berlin. His friends didn't approve of him, but he said jokingly, “If the bag is better than the meat inside, it will be a bad thing.”


先逐字读一遍短文,不认识的不着急查词典,读完一遍,不熟悉的生词大约心中有数了,再回头仔细读一遍,有生词的部分,细读,根据上下文猜测一下意思。如果手头有纸笔不妨写下来。最好通读三遍,文章的大约意思估计也就明白八九不离十了。再逐字查阅生词,最后再对照译文,通读一两遍。还有疑难不解的地方做好笔记请教他人。
