Unit 1

If great achievers share anything, said Simonton, it is an unrelenting drive to succeed. There’s a tendency to think that they are endowed with something super-normal, he explained. But what comes out of the research is that there are great people who have no amazing intellectual processes. It’s a difference in degree. Greatness is built upon tremendous amounts of study, practice and devotion.

He cited Winston Churchill, Britain’s prime minister during World War 2, as an example of a risk-taker who would never give up. Thrust into office when his country's morale was at its lowest, Churchill rose brilliantly to lead the British people. In a speech following the Allied evacuation at Dunkirk in 1940,he inspired the nation when he said, We shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end... We shall never surrender.

西蒙顿说，如果成就巨大者具有什么共性的话，那就是一种坚持不懈地追求成功的动力。“往往有人认为他们具备一些超常非凡的东西，”他解释道。“但研究表明，有些伟人并没有惊人的智力有的只是程度上的差异而已。伟大是建立在大量的学习、实践和献身精神的基础之上的。” 他举了二战时期的英国首相温斯顿丘吉尔作为永不放弃敢于冒险的典范。丘吉尔在全国士气最为低落的时候被推上了台，并出色地领导了英国人民。在“我们1940 年盟军敦刻尔克大撤退之后的一次演讲中，他的话激励了全国人民，决不会退缩、永不失败。我们一定要坚持到底......我们永远不会屈服。

Unit 2

Some persons refrain from expressing their gratitude because they feel it will not be welcome. A patient of mine, a few weeks after his discharge from the hospital, came back to thank his nurse. I didn't come back sooner, he explained, because I imagined you must be bored to death with people thanking you.

On the contrary, she replied, I am delighted you came. Few realize how much we need encouragement and how much we are helped by those who give it.

Gratitude is something of which none of us can give too much. For on the smiles, the thanks we give, our little gestures of appreciation, our neighbors build up their philosophy of life.

有些人不愿表达感激之情，因为他们觉得这不会受欢迎。我的一个病人在“我没有早点回来，出院的后几个星期回到医院感谢他的护士。“因”他解释说，为我猜想你们对别人的感激一定厌烦得要命。” ”她回答说，“正好相反，“我很高兴你来。很少有人明白我们多么需要鼓励，我们从那些鼓励我们的人身上获得了多大的帮助。” 我们所给予的感激永远不会过多。因为我们身边的人在构筑他们的人生哲学时所依据的正是这些微笑，正是我们所表示的感谢以及表示感激的小小的举动。

Unit 3

The normal Western approach to a problem is to fight it. The saying, “when the going gets tough, the tough get going,” is typical of this aggressive attitude towards problem-solving. No matter what the problem is or the techniques available for solving it, the frame work produce by our Western way of thinking is fight. Dr. de Bono calls this vertical thinking: the traditional, sequential, Aristotelian thinking of logic, moving firmly from one step to the next, like toy blocks is incorrectly placed, then the whole structure collapses. Impasse is reached, and frustrations, tension, feeling of fight take over.

Later thinking, Dr. de Bono says, is a new technique of thinking about things—a technique that avoids this fight altogether, and solves the problem in an entirely unexpected fashion.

Lateral thinking sounds simple. And it is. Once you have solved a problem laterally, you wonder how you could ever have been hung up on it. The key is making that vital shift in emphasis, that sidestepping of the problem, instead of attacking it head-on.

Dr. A. A. Bridger, psychiatrist at Columbia University and in private practice in New York, explains how lateral thinking works with his patients, “Many people come to me wanting to stop smoking, for instance,” he says. “Most people fail when they are trying to stop smoking because they wind up telling themselves,’ No，I will not smoke; no, I shall not smoke; no, I will not; no, I cannot ...’”It's a fight and what happens is you end up smoking more.

“So instead of looking at the problem from the old way of no, and fighting it, I show them a whole new point of view—that you are your body's keeper, and your body is something though which you experience life. If you stop thinking about it, there's really something helpless about your body. It can do nothing for itself. It has no choice; it is like a baby's body. You begin then a whole new way of looking at it—‘I am going to take care of myself, and give myself some respect and protection, by no smoking.’”

一般西方人解决问题的方法是与之搏斗。“事情越困难，硬汉子就越向前”这句话便代表了这种解决问题的积极进取的态度。不管是什么问题，或者可以用来解决问题的方法是什么，我们西方人的思维方式产生的基本思路总是搏斗。德博诺博士称之为纵向思维；即传统的、按顺序的、亚里士多德式的逻辑思维，坚定地从一步移到下一步，就象玩具积木一块搭在另一块上。当然，它们的缺陷是，如果在任何时刻其中一步没有达到，或者一块积木没有放对，那么整个结构就会坍塌。事情就会陷入僵局，沮丧、紧张、和搏斗的情绪就会笼罩心头。横向思维，德博诺博士说，是对事物进行思考的一种新方法------一种完全避免这种拼

搏，用完全出人意料的方式解决问题的方法。在歇洛克福尔摩斯的一个探案中，他的助手华生医生指出有条狗对案子并不重要，因为这条狗看来一无所为。歇洛克福尔摩斯持相反的观点，他坚持认为这条狗一无所为这一事实至关重要，因为它应该有所为，正是在这个基础上他侦破了这个案子。横向思维听上去很简单。它也的确很简单。一旦你横向地解决了一个问题，你就会奇怪你以前怎么竟会为它心神不宁。关键是作出那个重要的重点转移，横跨一步，避开问题，而不是正面去解决它。在纽约私人开业的哥伦比亚大学的精神病学家AA布里杰博士阐述了横向思维对他的病人们如何有用。“比方说，很多想戒烟的人来找我，“大多”他说。数人在他们试图戒烟时都失败了，因为他们最后总对自己说，‘不，我决不吸烟了；不，我不该吸烟了；不，我决不吸了；不，我不能...’这是一场搏斗，结果是你吸得更多。” “所以我不再让他们用这种老的否定方式来看待这一问题并与之搏斗，而是向他们展示了一个全新的视角------你是你身体的看护人，你是通过你的身体来体验生活的。如果你认真思考一下，你就会发现你的身体的确有一些无能为力的东西。它丝毫不能自理。它没有选择，就象一个婴儿的身体。于是你就开始用全新的方式来看待它------‘现在我将通过戒烟来照顾自己，给自己一’些尊重和保护。

Unit 4

When a student's work did not measure up to the teacher's expectations, as often happened, the student was not treated with disappointment ,anger ,or annoyance .Instead, the teacher assumed that this was an exception, an accident, a bad day, a momentary slip-and the student believed her and felt reassured. The next time around, he tried harder, determined to live up to what the teacher knew he could do.

The exact part of communication that tells a child,“I expect the best, ”is difficult to pinpoint. In part it consists of a level tone showing assurance, a lack of verbal impatience, an absence of negative qualities such as irony, put-downs, and irritation. The teacher who expects the best asks her questions with conviction, knowing the answers she gets will be right, and the child picks up that conviction.

当一个学生的功课达不到老师的期望时，正如经常发生的那样，这个学生得到的不是失望、生气或恼怒的对待。相反，老师认为这是一个例外，一次意外事件，倒霉的一天，一次暂时性的失误而学生相信了她，并消除了疑虑。下一次功课，他更加努力了，决心做到老师知道他能做到的事。很难精确地找出老师传达的信息中到底是哪一部分告诉了孩子：“我期待着最好的成绩。”它的部分成分包括显示着信心的平和声调，没有言语上的不耐烦，没有讽刺、奚落和恼怒等消极因素。期待着最好成绩的老师满怀信心地提出问题，她知道她将得到的答案将是正确的，而孩子也感受到了那种信心。

Unit 5

I have often reflected upon the new vistas that reading opened to me.

I knew right there in prison that reading had changed forever the course of my life. As I see it today, the ability to read awoke inside me some long dormant craving to be mentally alive. I certainly wasn't seeking any degree, the way a college confers a status symbol upon its students. My homemade education gave me, with every additional book that I read , a little bit more sensitivity to the deafness that was afflicting the black race in America. Not long ago, an English writer telephoned me from London, asking questions. One was,” What’s your alma matter?” I told him, “Books.” You will never catch me with a free fifteen minutes in which I'm not studying something I feel might be able to help the black man ...

我经常思考阅读为我打开了的新远景，我当时在狱中就知道，阅读已永远改变了我的人生历程。正如今天我明白，阅读能力唤醒了在我内心潜伏已久的对于活跃思想得渴望。我当然不是在追求任何学位，因为学位只是大学附于学生一种地位象征的方式。我通过自学所受到的教育使我每读到一本新书就更加意识到正在折磨美国黑人的聋、哑、盲。不久前，一位英国作家从伦敦打来电话问了我几个问题，其中之一是，“你的母校是哪？”我告诉他：“是书。”在任何一个空闲的15 分钟里，你都会发现我在学习一些我觉得可能有助于黑人的东西。

Unit 6

EQ is not the opposite of IQ. Some people are blessed with a lot of both, some with little of either. What researchers have been trying to understand is how they complement each other, how one's ability to handle stress, for instance, affects the ability to concentrate and put intelligence to use. Among the ingredients for success, researchers now generally agree that IQ counts for about 20%, the rest depends on

everything from class to luck to the neural pathways that have developed in the brain over millions of years of human evolution.

情商不是智商的对立面。一些人有幸两者都拥有很多，一些人则每一样都拥有很少。研究者们一直试图理解的是它们如何互补；比如，一个人对付压力的能力如何影响其集中思想和发挥才智的能力。研究者们大多同意，在成功的要素中智商约占20；其余则取决于多种因素，从所属的阶级到运气到在人类进化的几百万年中已在大脑中形成的神经通道。

Unit 7

As a child, I identified so strongly with my mother that I thought my father was just a long-term house guest with spanking privileges. She and I are bookish, introverted worriers. My father is an optimist who has never had a sleepless night in his life.

Like most fathers and sons, we fought. But there was no cooling-off period between rounds. It was a cold war lasting from the onset of my adolescence until I went off to college in 1973.I hated him. He was a former navy fighter pilot with an Irish temper and a belief that all the problems of the world-including an overprotected son who never saw anything through to completion-could be cured by the application of more discipline.

小时侯，我和母亲特别亲，而认为父亲只是一个长期住在我家并享有打孩子屁股特权的客人。母亲和我爱读书，性格内向，多愁善感。父亲则很乐观，一生中从来没有睡不着觉的时候。像大多数父子一样，我们常斗气。但在各个回合之间却没有休战期。这是一场冷战，从我的青春期开始一直持续到1973 年我离家去上大学。我恨他。他以前是一名海军战斗机驾驶员，脾气火暴，他坚信世界上所有的问题----包括宠爱有加、做事一向虎头蛇尾的儿子----都能通过严隶法纪来解决。

Unit 8

Now it must be obvious what all has to do with you. Eventually like the rest of us you must be on one side or the other. You must be an Athenian or a Visigoth. Of course it is much harder to be an Athenian for you must

learn how to be one you must work at being one whereas we are all in a way natural-both Visigoths. That is why there are so many more Visigoths than Athenians. And I must tell you that you do not become an Athenian merely by attending school or accumulating degrees. My father-in-law was one of the most committed Athenians I have ever known and he spent his entire adult life as a dress cutter on Seventh Avenue in New York City. On the other hand I have known physicians lawyers and engineers who are Visigoths of unmistakable persuasion. And I must also tell you, as much in sorrow as in shame, that at some of our great universities perhaps even this one there are professors of whom we may fairly say they are closet Visigoths. And yet, you must not doubt for a moment that a school after all is essentially an Athenian idea. There is a direct link between the cultural achievements of Athens and what the faculty of this university is all about. I have no difficulty imagining that Plato Aristotle or Democritus would be quite at home in our classrooms. A Visigoth would merely scrawl obscenities on the wall.

现在，所有这一切与你的关系一定很清楚了。你终将同其他人一样，必须站在一方或另一方。你必定要么是雅典人要么是西哥特人。当然，成为名雅典人要难得多，因为你必须学习如何成为雅典人，你必须要付出努力，而从某种意义上说我们天生都是西哥特人。这就是为什么西哥特人比雅典人要多得多的原因。我还必须告诉你，仅仅通过上学或者拿到几个学位是不会成为雅典人的。我的岳父是我所知道的最坚定的雅典人之一，他成年之后一直是纽约第七大街上的一名裁缝。相反，我认识的一些医生、律师和工程师却是十足的西哥特人。我还必须既痛心又惭愧地告诉你，在我们一些名牌大学，也许甚至就在这一所，有一些教授，我们可以公正地说，是些隐蔽的西哥特人。然而，你决不可对学校产生怀疑，学校的本质毕竟体现了一种雅典人的观念。雅典的文化成就和这所大学的教员所从事的工作之间有着直接的联系。不难想象，在我们的教室里，柏拉图、亚里士多德或者德谟克利特会感到很自在。西哥特人将只会在墙壁上涂写一些淫秽的话。

Unit5 Text A 约翰·肯尼迪就职演说 1961年1月20日，星期五 今天我们并不是在庆祝政党的胜利，而是在庆祝自由的胜利；它象征着一个结束，也象征着一个开始；它意味着一种更新，也意味着一种变革。因为我已在你们和上帝面前，宣读了庄重的誓言，与我们的先辈在175年前所拟定的相同。 现在的世界已大不相同了，因为人类的手中掌握着既能消灭人间的各种贫困，又能毁灭所有人类生命的力量。但我们先辈为之奋斗的相同的革命信念，在世界各地仍然有着争论。这个信念就是：人权并非来自国家的慷慨施舍，而是来自上帝的恩赐。 今天，我们不敢忘记我们是第一次革命的继承者。让我们的朋友和敌人都能够听见我此时此地的讲话：(革命的)火炬已经传给了新一代的美国人——他们出生在本世纪，经历过战争的洗礼和严峻而艰苦的和平的考验，为我国悠久的传统感到自豪——他们不愿目睹或容许我国一向坚持，并且今天仍在国内和国际做出承诺的人权渐趋毁灭。 让每个国家都知道，不论是祝福我们的，还是诅咒我们的，为确保自由的存在和胜利，我们将不惜付出任何代价，承受任何沉重负担，应付任何艰难险阻，支持任何朋友，反对任何敌人。 这就是我们的保证——而且还不止于此。 对于那些和我们有着共同文化和精神渊源的昔日盟邦，我们保证会像对待挚友般忠诚。只要团结起来，在许多需要合作的事业中几乎没有什么事是办不到的。我们如果分歧对立，就会一事无成，因为我们在这种情况下，就不敢应付强有力的挑战。 对于那些我们欢迎其加人到自由国家行列中来的新国家，我们将恪守诺言：决不让一种更为严酷的暴政来取代消失的殖民统治，，我们并不总是指望他们会支持我们的观点，但我们始终希望他们能坚决捍卫自身的自由，而且铭记，在历史上，凡是愚蠢地骑在虎背上谋求权力的人，都是以葬身虎口而告终的。 对那些遍布半个地球的身居茅舍和乡村、为摆脱赤贫桎梏而挣扎的人们，我们保证尽最大努力帮助他们自救，不管需要花多长时间——之所以这样做，并不是因为共产党可能在这样做，也不是因为我们需要他们的选票，而是因为这样做是 正确的，，自由社会如果不能帮助众多的穷人，也就无法保护少数的富人。 最后，对于那些与我们敌对的国家，我们提出的不是保证，而是要求：在科学释放出可怕的破坏力量，把全人类卷入到预谋的或意外的自我毁灭的深渊之前，让我们双方重新开始寻求和平。我们不敢以示弱来引诱他们。因为只有当我们毋庸置疑地拥有足够的军备，我们才能毫无疑问地确信永远不会使用这些军备。 所有这些在最初的100天内不会完成，在最初的1000天内也不会完成，在本届政府仔期内也不会完成，甚至我们在这个星球上的有生之年都不会完成。但是让我们开始行动。同胞们，我们的事业最终成败与否，与其说掌握在我的手中，不如说掌握在你们的手中。自从合众国建立以来，每一代美国人都受到过召唤去证明他们对国家的忠诚。曾经响应召唤而献身的美国青年的坟墓遍及全球。 现在，号角已再次吹响——不是召唤我们拿起武器，尽管我们需要武器，不是召唤我们去作战，虽然我们严阵以待——而是召唤我们为迎接黎明而肩负起漫长斗争的重任，年复——年，“从希望中获得欢乐，在苦难中保持坚韧”，去反对人类共同的敌人：专制、贫困、疾病和战争本身。我们能不能结成一个包括东西南北各方的全球大联盟，以反抗这些敌人，确保人类有更为富足的生活呢?你们愿意加入这场历史性的斗争吗? 在悠久的世界历史中，只有少数几代人被赋·子这种使命，能够在面临最大的危机时捍卫自由，、我们在这场奋斗中所奉献的精力、信念和献身精神，将照亮我们的国家和所有

21世纪大学实用英语课文翻译及课后答案 Text A 大学——我一生中的转折点 佚名 作为一名一年级新生初进大学时，我害怕自己在学业上搞不好。我害怕独自一人在外，因为我是第 一次远离家人。这里周围都是我不认识的人，而他们也不认识我。我得和他们交朋友，或许还得在我要学的课程上 跟他们在分数上进行竞争。他们比我更聪明吗？我跟得上他们吗？他们会接受我吗？ 我很快就认识到，我的生活现在就取决于我自己了。如果我要在学业上取得成功，我就必须制定一份学习计划。我 必须调整花在学习上的时间和花在社交上的时间。我必须决定什么时候上床睡觉，什么时候吃什么，什么时候喝什 么，对什么人表示友好。这些问题我都得自己回答。 开始时，生活有点艰难。我在怎样利用时间上犯了错误。我在交朋友上花的时间太多了。我还在怎样选择大学里的 第一批朋友上犯了一些错误。 然而不久，我就控制住了自己的生活。我做到了按时上课，完成并交上了第一批作业，而且以相当好的成绩通过了 前几次考试。此外，我还交了一些朋友，跟他们在一起我感到很自在，我能把我担心的事告诉他们。我建立了一种 真正属于我自己的常规——一种满足了我的需要的常规。 结果，我开始从一个不同的视角看待我自己了。我开始把自己看作是一个对自己负责也对朋友和家人负责的人。凡 事自己做决定并看到这些决定最终证明是明智的决定，这种感觉很好。我猜想这就是人们所说的“成长”的一部分 吧。 我未来的生活将会怎样呢？在人生的这一阶段，我真的不能确定我的人生之路最终将会走向何方，我真的不知道在 以后的几年中我会做什么。但我知道，我能应对未来，因为我已经成功地跃过了我生命中的这一重要障碍：我已经 完成了从一个依赖家人给予感情支持的人向一个对自己负责的人的过渡。 Practice 5 1. smart 2. succeed 3. shortly 4. managed 5. share 6. fear 7. responsible 8. however 9. enter 10. surrounded 11. handle 12. comfortable Practice 6 1. is up to 2. keep up with 3. under control 4. at first 5. grew up 6. make friends with 7. turned out 8. as a result 9. set up 10. in addition Practice 7 1. how to play the game 2. where I wanted to go 3. whether they would accept him or not 4. what to do and how to do it 5. whom to love and whom not to 6. when he made that decision Practice 8 1.

21世纪大学英语第一册课文的翻译

21世纪大学英语第一册课文的翻译 Unit1 TextA 优等生的奥秘 埃德温·基斯特莎莉·瓦伦丁·基斯特 现在是剑桥大学理科一年级学生的阿历克斯，曾在曼彻斯特的中学校队里踢足球，还导演过学校的戏剧演出——但他中学毕业时得了五个A。在布里斯托尔大学攻读英语的阿曼达在中学里参加过戏剧演出，还经常打网球，但她仍然得到了四个A。 像他们这样的优等生是如何做到这一点的呢？脑子好使并不是唯一的答案。最有天赋的学生未必在考试中取得最好的成绩。懂得如何充分利用自己的才能要重要得多。 学习刻苦也不能说明全部问题。在这些成绩优秀的学生中，有些人投入的时间其实比那些分数低的同学还少。班级中拔尖学生的成功之道在于他们掌握了一些基本的技巧，这些技巧其他人也能很容易地学到。根据教育专家和学生们自己的叙述，优等生成功的奥秘有以下几点。 1.全神贯注！拔尖生不允许他们的学习时间受到干扰。一旦书本打开，便电话不接，电视不看，报纸不读。“这并不意味着对生活中的重要事情置之不理，”阿曼达解释说，“这意味着要安排好学习时间，以便能全神贯注。要是我牵挂一位患病的朋友，我会在做功课之前先给她打个电话。这样我坐下来学习时，就能真正集中心思了。” 2.在任何地方——或所有的地方学习。亚利桑那州一位教授曾奉命辅导一些成绩欠佳的大学运动员。他记得有一名赛跑运动员每天都要训练。他曾说服他利用这段时间记忆生物学术语。另一名学生则把词汇表贴在盥洗室墙上，每天刷牙时都记住一个生词。 3.安排好资料。汤姆在中学时打过篮球。“我非常忙，不可能为了找一支铅笔或一本不见的笔记本而浪费时间。我把每样东西都放在随后可取的地方，”他说。新墨西哥州学生保罗为每门功课备有两个文件夹，一个放当天布置的作业，另一个放已完成要交的家庭作业。一个抽屉把必需的用品放在一起，这样就可减少因找东西而浪费的时间。 4.安排好时间。当教师布置写一篇长论文时，阿历克斯会花两三天时间去阅读与题目有关的资料并做笔记，然后写出草稿，再写成论文。他会计划好在作业该交的前两三天完成，以便如果花费的时间超过预期，他还能在规定的最后期限前完成。阿曼达严格遵守一张学习时间表，其中包括每两小时休息一次。“在你过度疲劳时还试图学习并不明智，”她指出，“短暂的休息，哪怕只是伸展一下身体，呼吸呼吸新鲜空气，也能带来意想不到的效果。” 5.学会阅读。“我过去常花许多时间阅读一些无关的资料，”阿曼达回忆说，“但后来我习惯了快读；如果一段文章的第一句话无关紧要，我便接着读下一段。”“我修过的最好的一门课便是快速阅读，”一名俄克拉荷马州的学生说，“我不仅提高了每分钟阅读的词数，而且学会了首先看书的目录和插图。这样，当我开始阅读时，我就对阅读材料先有了一些了解，而且能记住更多的内容。”在这些学生看来，有效阅读的奥秘就在于做一个主动的阅读者，即能不断提出一些能使自己充分理解所读材料的问题。 6.做好笔记。“在写任何东西之前，我先把一页纸分成两部分，”阿曼达说，“左边部分约占纸宽的三分之一；右边部分占三分之二。我把笔记写在宽的一边，而把中心思想写在左边。这在复习时非常有用，因为你马上就能看到为什么这些材料是有关的，而不用为信息量太大而发愁。”在下课铃响起之前，多数学生便已经合上书本，收好作业，和朋友们说说话儿，准备离开了。而聪明的学生却利用这几分钟，用两三句话写出这堂课的要点，下一次上课之前，他便可以把这些要点浏览一遍。 7.问问题。“如果你问问题，你立刻就会知道，你是否已经掌握了要点，”阿历克斯说。课堂参与是一种求知欲的显示。例如，在经济学课上，好奇的学生会问，中国经济怎么可能既是社会主义的，又是市场驱动的，从而使他们不仅对于“什么”，而且对于“为什么”和“怎么样”产生兴趣。 8.一起学习。一起学习的价值从加州大学伯克利分校的一项试验中显示了出来。该校的

21世纪大学英语教程(第四册)Unit1课文原文

21世纪大学英语读写教程（第四册）Unit1课文原文 《Who Is Great?》 Michal Ryan As a young boy, Albert Einstein did so poorly in school that teachers thought he was slow. The young Napoleon Bonaparte was just one of hundreds of artillery lieutenants in the French Army. And the teenage George Washington, with little formal education, was being trained not as a soldier but as a land surveyor. Despite their unspectacular beginnings, each would go on to carve a place for himself in history. What was it that enabled them to become great? Were they born with something special? Or did their greatness have more to do with timing, devotion and, perhaps, an uncompromising personality? For decades, scientists have been asking such questions. And, in the past few years, they have found evidence to help explain why some people rise above, while others—similarly talented, perhaps—are left behind. Their findings could have implications for us all. Who is great? Defining who is great depends on how one measures success. But there are some criteria. "Someone who has made a lasting contribution to human civilization is great," said Dean Keith Simonton, a professor of psychology at the University of California at Davis and author of the 1994 book Greatness: Who Makes History and Why. But he added a word of caution: "Sometimes great people don't make it into the history books. A lot of women achieved great things or were influential but went unrecognized." In writing his book, Simonton combined historical knowledge about great figures with recent findings in genetics, psychiatry and the social sciences. The great figures he focused on include men and women who have won Nobel Prizes, led great nations or won wars, composed symphonies that have endured for centuries, or revolutionized science, philosophy, politics or the arts. Though he doesn't have a formula to define how or why certain people rise above (too many factors are involved), he has come up with a few common characteristics. A "never surrender" attitude. If great achievers share anything, said Simonton, it is an unrelenting drive to succeed. "There's a tendency to think that they are endowed with something super-normal," he explained. "But what comes out of the research is that there are great people who have no amazing intellectual processes. It's a difference in degree. Greatness is built upon tremendous amounts of study, practice and devotion." He cited Winston Churchill, Britain's prime minister during World War II, as an example of a risk-taker who would never give up. Thrust into office when his country's morale was at its lowest, Churchill rose brilliantly to lead the British people. In a speech following the Allied evacuation at Dunkirk in 1940, he inspired the nation when he said, "We shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end...We shall never surrender."
