　　参考译文：

　　Abigail Adams once said, “Learning is not attained by chance; it must be sought for with passion and attended to with diligence.” It is to say that learning is an enduring process in which one should exert oneself with desire for knowledge.

　　On the contrary, some people hold the idea that there is a shortcut in learning, and drag themselves to look for easy ways to study.

　　From my point of view, I am totally in favor of Abigail Adams’ s remark. For one thing, passion is of ultimate importance in learning, as interest is the best teacher. For another, one should resort to hard work and perseverance to acquire knowledge. Rome was not built in a day. Diligence and determination will be rewarded, as God loves those who spare no effort to cultivate themselves. In a word, learning is a life-long process which requires passion and diligence.
