As the saying goes, chance favored the prepared mind. I learned this from one of my experience. I was not chosen as member of the volleyball team of our school. Because of this, I decided to give up play volleyball. Luckily, my best friend stopped me but pointed out that it was my laziness and poor preparation which led to my failure. After that, I practiced playing volleyball on every day. When another tryout arrived, I was full prepared and tried my best. As a result, I was selected and became an important player on our school team.

From this, I am firmly convincing that we are able to seize a chance as long as I get well prepared.

Luckily, my best friend stopped me pointed out that it was my laziness and poor preparation led to my failure. After that, I practiced playing volleyball on every day.

From this, I am firmly that we are able to seize a chance as long as get well prepared.

【解析】

第一處：句意：俗話說，機遇垂青有準備的人。句子的主語chance是單數，所以謂語用單數。故favored 改為favors。

第二處：one of后面跟可數名詞的復數形式，指“……之一”。故experience改為experiences。

第三處：此處指“作為校排球隊的一員”。故as后加a。

第四處：give up doing…是固定搭配，指“放棄做某事”。故play改為playing。

第五處：前后兩句是語意的順承，并非轉折。故but改為and。

第六處：本句運用了強調句型“It is/ was + 被強調部分+ that/ who(當強調主語且主語指人)+ 其他部分”，強 調了主語“my laziness and poor preparation”。故which改為that。

第七處：every day指“每天”的意思，在句子中直接作時間狀語。故去掉on。

第八處：修飾謂語部分“was prepared”要用副詞。故full改為fully。

第九處：be convinced that是固定句式，指“相信、確信、承認某事”。句意：由此，我堅信只要我們做好充 分準備，我們就能抓住機會。convincing改為convinced。

第十處：與主句中的主語we相一致，此處也是指“我們”。句意：由此，我堅信只要我們做好充分準備，我 們就能抓住機會。故I改為we。
