As a teenager, school was difficult for me. I had a kind of attention disorder, which means I couldn't direct my attention to what I was doing So when everyone el in the class was centering their attention on tasks, I could not.
In my first reading class, Mrs. Smith asked us to read a story and then write on it all finished in 45 minutes. I immediately put up my hand and said, "Mrs. Smith, you e, the doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able to finish the task."
She looked down at me through her glass, saying, "You are not different from your classmates, young man." With her encouragement, I tried. But I didn't finish the reading when the bell rang I had to take it home.
In the quietness of my bedroom, the story suddenly all became clear to me. It was about a blind person, Louis Braille. He lived in a time when the blind couldn't get much education.

Success ems to be what everyone longs for in life, no matter how old he is. Students want to succeed at study. Adults look forward to their success at work. Have you ever wondered? What is the key to success? Some may say the answer is good luck. Some may say hard work is the key. In fact, hard work really does pay off. Scientist find that perverance( 坚持不
懈)leads to better grades and higher achievements in school.
"Being passionate( 热诚的)It's not enough to make sure that you can achieve success in your schoolwork."Say rearchers, and they thought of "courage" as a key to success. Courage is also considered as effort in reaching long-term goals, and a strong will to continue one`s efforts no matter what difficulties they might go through.
Rearchers think that the finding could help create new training to help children develop the skills and help them to succeed in their future.
Rearchers from the Academy of Finland studied more than 2000 students from Helsinki. They were followed through their learning from 12 to 16, the sixth grade until the ninth grade in local school years. Rearchers found that the factor(因素) that best predicts courage was related to goals. What they had achieved in their past learning played no role in developing the skill.
Professor Katariina Salmela-Aro , who led the study, said, "Courage means a young person is really interested in his or her studies and does not give up easily. A key factor of courage is high perverance when facing difficulties or in a terrible situation. The important finding is that the factors are the key to success and well-being. Our study shows the power of courage.
Professor Katariina Salmela-Aro also thinks It is important to develop new practices and build character to improve courage in teenagers. She added, "Young people should e everyday school work as part of their life in a wider context(背景) and t achievable goals for themlves. Schools must also rve as a place where it is safe to fail and learn to deal with tbacks. One must not be in this discouraged by tbacks, but the power and new energy from them!
