英语晨读精华 Week 2 Day 7 Winner Never Quit 成功者决不放弃
卡夫卡说，“受难”是这个世界和积极因素之间惟一的联系。当我们用不屈服的人生态度面对生命中的磨难时，我们才不会在生命的快乐中缺席。
是的，只要坚持，希望的翅膀终有一天会张开，飞翔天上。
A little girl—the 20th of 22 children, was born prematurely and her survival was doubtful.
When she was 4 years old, she contracted double pneumonia and scarlet fever, which left her with a paralysed left leg.
At age 9, she removed the metal leg brace she had been dependent on and began to walk without it.
By 13 she had developed a rhythmic walk, which doctors said was a miracle. That same year she decided to become a runner. She entered a race and came in last.
For the next few years every race she entered, she came in last.
Everyone told her to quit, but she kept on running.
One day she actually won a race, and then another. From then on she won every race she entered.
Eventually this little girl—Wilma Rudolph, went on to win three Olympic gold medals.
Winner never quit!
