The Way to Success"Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration." And here comes our question, what is the way to success?A strong will and great efforts are the most essential two keys to the door of success.Why do people fail to achieve their goal? The reason is that most of them give up halfway due to their lack of a strong will once they encounter any difficulty. A man of a strong will always sticks to his cause no matter how tough it might be.Would Thomas Edison be such a great man in history if he had done nothing but possessing a strong will? We are all familiar with his story that he had tried one thousand kinds of materials before he finally made his great bulb light up. Without hard effort, Edison might have been a nobody. Without efforts, no one can succeed.To sum up, a strong will and great efforts can help one open up the way to success. Where there is a will with efforts, there is a way.Part II Reading Comprehension(Skimming and Scanning)1. 【答案银旁】B. to serve the interest of the general public【解析告雹】关键词：claims its motives。关键句：The company claims its motives are essentially public-spirited.
