Unless a man has trained himself for his chance , the chance will only make him ridiculous Everybody is looking forward to succeed. Someone seeks chances only by waiting and complaining about his bad fortune. Actually, the essence of life is a series of closing doors, isn’t it? You can’t change nothing unless take the initiate and prepare for those coming chances. Steven Jobs took his chance and establish the Apple, Elon Musk sensitively detected the trend of science development and float four companies. However, how can you, perhaps as a normal people, prepare for a potential chance? Firstly, one takes on the color of one's company. Make sure you stay in a kind of environment which is benefit for your improvement. Furthermore, position yourself correctly, it’s no help for you to struggle for a unreachable goal. It will also exhaust your passion and dampen your hope. Last but not least, focus on what you are preparing for. One doesn’t have so much energy to get everything well-done. It’s a road of keeping, it’s a challenge to your will power. So get prepared! Stop being normal and lazy .

What's the difference between “can” and “could”？ How to use these two words？ And from the aspect of expressing mood, what's the difference?

Preparing for IELTS Test I'm a college student and I'm preparing for the IELTS examination. IELTS includes listening, speaking, reading and writing. The most difficult part for me is speaking(though other three parts are not my strengths.....) because you don't have so much time to talk to a native English speaker. Besides, as a Chinese people, it has deeply taken root in your mind that the way you think or speak or talk has a strong Chinese style. I wonder how could I finally speak English as good as a native English speaker ? The other problem is that i always prefer to use some advanced vocabularies, although I have no idea whether foreigners use them. How to find a balance point between understandable and gorgeous ? And a tiny wish at last, can you please tell me the difference between "can " and "could" please ? I'm really confused about it at times. Thank you ! Wish to be your friend and have an audio communication with you!
