Something happend to my friend this morning. It was such a big surprise that her voice became choked with emotion. It's a lost-and-found postgraduate recommendation for Shanghai Jiaotong University. Shanghai Jiaotong University is one of the top five university of China.The recommendations are so precious that only the top 4 in the grade get one. She is 7th. But she tried her best to get the admission. She is excellent, but the president of student union is better. So she failed.

All of us think she has to face the truth. But fortune is a taker and a giver. The president of the student union gave up that opportunity, so she got the admission after all.In addition to luck, her efforts laid a good foundation.

It occurs to me that “when the opportunity comes, you're ready" is one of Harvard University's motto. And it is right.

~ it's a great story! And your writing is getting better! good work :)
