Portrayed in the two cartoons is a thought-provoking scenario:In the left one,a young man,comfortably lounging on the chair,is looking at his huge bookshelf full of books contentedly,while the other,in the right drawing,is determined to finish reading 20 books in a year.By this scenario,the cartoonist is trying to awaken us to the importance of reading and sticking to our goals.It is universally held that with the advance of modern society,only those equipped with updated knowledge are most likely to reach the summit of their success,which can only be achieved through constant reading.Nevertheless,without actions,our objectives are bound to be a fantasy.Indeed,people fail always because they stop trying,not because they encounter invincible difficulties.From what has been mentioned above,we may reasonably arrive at the conclusion that only those who keep learning and cherish the spirit of persistence have opportunities to succeed.Action always speaks louder than words.If you understand and adhere to this principle in your study and work,you will definitely benefit greatly.
