English debate [urgent need]
The reason why opportunity becomes the key to success is based on Marxism–Leninism's materialistic world outlook. We say that objective conditions determine people's subjective consciousness, and a person's success depends not only on his own subjective efforts. During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhou Yu once lamented: There is everything except the east wind. This was the case in ancient times, and it is still the case today. Isn't our subjective efforts to give full play to the greatest advantage of external conditions? Therefore, a successful person, whether in an advantage or a disadvantage, is successful because of the existence of external opportunities, and his own efforts are only the driving force to accelerate his success.

Principle: the principle of dialectical relationship between internal and external causes.

Opportunity is only the external cause of personal development and success. This is a necessary condition for our success. Opportunities can help us succeed, but only if we work hard, that is, your own internal factors are the key to determine whether you can succeed. If there is an opportunity, you can't succeed without your own preparation. Therefore, opportunity is not the key to success, it is just a catalyst to help us succeed.

Opportunities only favor those who are prepared-I don't remember any famous person saying that.

Debate: Opportunity is the key to success/Opportunity is not the key to success;

Distinguished guests and other debaters: Hello everyone!

First of all, I am glad that both sides have seized this opportunity to pursue our desire for success together. Our view-opportunity is the key to success!

Modern Chinese dictionaries interpret opportunity as favorable opportunity, favorable environment and favorable opportunity for people. In modern society, people call the accidental discovery of scientific workers when they carry out an observation activity or experiment in a planned, purposeful and conscious way as an opportunity. It can be seen that opportunity is an objective thing, and it is the sum of understanding and control of opportunity; And success is a process that individuals set a valuable goal in advance and achieve it step by step. Obviously, whether you set goals or achieve them, you need a good situation, that is, opportunity, which runs through the whole process of success. Opportunity is accidental, objective and unexpected. Objectivity means that the existence of opportunities does not change with people's likes and dislikes; Chance means that opportunities usually appear outside people's conscious, purposeful and predictable activities, and the timeliness of opportunities is particularly strong, which lasts for several years and is fleeting. Everyone is familiar with the example of Bole Xiangma. Maxima exists objectively, but before Bole appeared, no one could know it was Maxima. It is the appearance of Bole that makes people realize the existence and value of Maxima. For Maxima, this is the key to its success, and Bole is the opportunity. Maxima is common but Bole is not! There is no doubt that Li Bai is not only capable, but also outstanding, but he has never realized his political ideal because he has no chance.

Visible opportunities are the key to success! Opportunity is the prerequisite for all other factors to work. If there is no chance, even if you are brilliant, you will not get the opportunity and stage to display your ambitions. As the saying goes, the difference between winners and losers lies in whether they can seize opportunities. The so-called gentleman moves when the hero is born; Running fast doesn't necessarily win, and fighting hard doesn't necessarily win, which shows how important opportunities are. So, at the last moment, everyone cares about the hard-won opportunity!

Madame Curie put it well: "The weak wait for opportunities, and the strong create opportunities." There are occasional opportunities for a person's success, but the discovery, capture and full use of accidental opportunities are by no means accidental. Zhuge Liang can get ahead, in addition to his own talent, more importantly, he seized the opportunity provided by Liu Bei's three visits to the cottage, and seized the opportunity to succeed, which further shows that opportunity is the key to success!

Seize the opportunity or be passive. Really smart people will create opportunities. If you have read the Art of War, you will understand how to create opportunities and why opportunities are the key to success and victory! In the past, the mobile warfare between the Red Army and the People's Liberation Army was a good example of creating and seizing opportunities militarily.

To sum up, opportunity is the key factor of our success, and it may be around us. We should seize it, create it and embark on the road to success. I firmly established our invincible position: opportunity is the key to success!

The opposite argument:

Dear Chairman, debaters against it, dear friends: Hello everyone!

Today's opportunity is rare. Being able to compete with so many experts and friends is undoubtedly an opportunity to improve my personal quality. We always believe that opportunity is not the key to success!

We believe that opportunities are indispensable in life, but more importantly, people who can create opportunities! People rely on strength. Without strength, what should I do if I have the opportunity? Strength depends on oneself, and opportunity depends on oneself. Opportunity only provides a shortcut to success for those who are prepared.

It is true that personal struggle and external opportunities are two indispensable conditions for success, but today we are discussing which of them plays a key role in the process of success: First, from a philosophical point of view, internal cause is the fundamental reason for the development of things, which determines the nature and development direction of things, while external cause is the external condition for the development of things. Personal struggle is the internal cause and external opportunity is the external cause, so self-struggle is the key to success; Second, judging from the process of success, we must first determine the goal, so as to choose the direction and type, and then through our own personal struggle, with the improvement of our own quality and ability, seize the opportunity and use it to realize the perfect combination of our own struggle and external opportunities. This is the key to our own struggle.

As we all know, no matter how good the opportunity is, people without ability will not succeed. I can only watch the opportunity slip away. The premise of a thousand miles a day is ability. Jin Hui is the gold content of gold itself! We believe that opportunities will have an impact on success. Like a gust of wind on a journey. Walking with the wind is bound to save effort, but it is impossible to reach the other side without firm determination to achieve the goal, perseverance to overcome difficulties and hard sweat. No matter whether it is downwind or downwind, as long as we firmly move towards our goal step by step, we will definitely arrive.

See how great men succeed. It is the result of gold and personal efforts. From the perspective of normal interpersonal relationship, opportunity is only a man-made result. If you don't fight for it, if you don't have the ability to fight for it, the opportunity won't come by yourself, and waiting can only be a crushing defeat.

As we all know, in terms of our advantages and disadvantages today, one side is doomed to fail. The same opportunity, two different results, so opportunity is not the key to success.

The pros and cons:

Distinguished guests and other debaters: Hello everyone.

I'm glad to have the opportunity to sit with you and talk about it. We believe that opportunity is the key to success.

The other party argues that "opportunity is not the key to success", but has been unable to find the other party to explain what is the key to success.

We believe that strength is the foundation, success is the goal and opportunity is the key. There is no building without foundation, and success without strength is unrealistic (success without strength can only be a dream). Can a child who can't even run take part in the 100-meter race? Another debater won't discuss with me that a child who can't run away should take part in the 100-meter race, will he? So there is no success without any strength.

We think opportunity is the key. What's the point? Among all the factors, the decisive factor is the key, and opportunity has this effect on success.

For example, if seeds are to take root, sprout and harvest, it is necessary to ensure the complete germ endosperm seed tissue and the necessary conditions (that is, strength) to become seeds. Secondly, it must have a suitable temperature and humidity for its growth before it can take root, sprout and harvest. The temperature and humidity here are the key to seed germination. There is a poem that says: plant a millet in spring and reap 10 thousand seeds in autumn. Therefore, farmers should seize the appropriate solar terms to sow (there will be no harvest after the solar terms). Nowadays, people often use greenhouses to adjust the temperature and humidity and create a suitable environment, so there are fresh vegetables on our table all year round.

Opportunity is the key to success, which is independent of personal will. Another debater mentioned that in the face of the same opportunity, success or failure is different. This can only show that the loser did not grasp the key to success, while the winner grasped this key. You can't deny the proposition that "opportunity is the key to success" just because you don't grasp the opportunity. If there is no chance, you may never reach the other side of success alone.

"Opportunity is the key to success" includes: only those with strength can seize the opportunity, and only those who seize the opportunity can succeed. It is definitely impossible without opportunities, but opportunities can also be created, so we will find ways to create opportunities (I am honored that the other debater supports the idea of creating opportunities).

Another debater suggested that "personal struggle and external opportunities are two necessary conditions for success", and we agreed.

First of all, thank each other for corroborating our point of view and supporting that "external opportunities are necessary conditions for success". Secondly, the other party also mentioned "personal struggle". We don't deny the role of individual struggle. Let's look at the role of personal struggle: first, personal struggle can strive to improve their own strength and make them more capable of seizing every possible opportunity of success; Second, personal struggle also improves the ability to create opportunities, and it is your efforts that create opportunities. It can be seen that "personal struggle" is still the argument that supporting our opportunity is the key to success, so I have to thank other defense friends again for providing evidence to support our point of view.

To sum up, the other debater still supports our point of view, but he just doesn't want to admit it. Can the opposing debater ignore the present opportunity? Obviously not!

Two opposing views:

Success is not a gift from God, nor is it the arrival of good luck, nor is it the result of any opportunity. The success of life lies in the firm goal in everyone's mind, in everyone's perseverance to take risks and overcome difficulties, and more importantly, in everyone's determination not to give up until the goal is reached. It is the expression of sweat and strength, and it is the result of being down-to-earth and pragmatic. Looking around the world, which successful person has no hard sweat behind him, and which success is not full of efforts? Have you ever thought about the complexity and arduousness of Edison's invention of the light bulb when we are looking forward to the' opportunity' in life? He once worked 18 hours a day, used countless experimental materials and tried thousands of failures.

When the other party argued, he said in the opening question: "Opportunity is an opportunity, situation and opportunity that is beneficial to people." . In other words, success lies in favorable opportunities, environments and opportunities. The other side also argued that "the decisive factor among all factors is the key". In other words, the decisive factors of success are favorable opportunity, environment and opportunity. Since opportunities play a decisive role in success, that is to say, favorable opportunities, environments and opportunities play a decisive role in success.

As can be seen from the above remarks, the other party separates the emergence of opportunities from the premise of opportunities. Without understanding the true meaning of our argument at all, we admit the existence of opportunity, but it is not the decisive factor for success. What is an opportunity? Opportunity is actually all the favorable factors that success has in an instant. The emergence of success is not determined by it, but only the companion of success. Its appearance is determined by all its previous efforts and efforts. The success of the revolution is not determined by the favorable factors at the moment of success, but by decades of hard struggle. Success depends on its struggle process, and its accompanying factors cannot be regarded as decisive factors. Opportunities are not groundless, they are created. We also saw in the other side's second debate that they admitted that the opportunity lies in creation, not waiting for him. That shows that what really determines success is the process of creating opportunities, not the opportunities brought by good luck or good fate.

The successful development of the space shuttle is a great progress of mankind, and the opportunities accompanying the successful launch include the appropriate wind, weather, technology and safety on the day of launch. Did they decide the success of the space shuttle? Don't! Because these opportunities are the result of decades of unremitting efforts of scientific and technological personnel, and they are selected and created by scientific and technological personnel in astronomy, geography, engineering and other fields. Therefore, success is not determined by the favorable factors accompanying success, let alone by the good luck given by God, but by all the efforts and efforts before success appears.

In the development of things, if the direction is wrong, it is doomed to failure. Even if there are more favorable factors, it can't determine success, because it was wrong from the beginning. Therefore, the factor that determines success lies in all the processes before success, not the emergence of some so-called opportunities. Any idea that takes opportunity as the decisive factor of success is an unrealistic idea that ignores the development process of things and is divorced from reality.

Three affirmative arguments:

Ladies and gentlemen, debaters, hello, I am very happy to come here to discuss and exchange with you!

The other side argued that "success is the performance of sweat and strength, and it is the result of being down-to-earth and pragmatic." This is unrealistic. If you work hard, you may not succeed. Super girl became famous overnight. They were all powerful before, and their efforts in the process were real. But if there is no chance for "super girls" to compete, they will certainly continue to "work hard" in obscurity. Can you say that opportunity is not the key to success? Let me ask other debaters again: In this debate, just rely on your "firm goals, perseverance to overcome difficulties and determination never to give up", and just rely on preparing your arguments in private to get ready? Will it succeed? Have you ever heard of "the right place at the right time"? I didn't give you a chance to argue this time. How can I show my eloquence? This opportunity is the key to the success of the debate!

Another debater also said, "What is an opportunity? Opportunity is actually all the favorable factors that success has in an instant. The emergence of success is not determined by it, it is only a companion of success, and its emergence is determined by all its previous efforts and efforts. " This obviously ignores the importance of opportunities. Another debater regards opportunity as the companion of success, but we think that on the contrary, success is the companion of opportunity. Success is the result, opportunity is the condition, how can the condition be the companion of the result? The example just now has illustrated this problem. Another example: In Chairman Mao's time, as long as you were down-to-earth and willing to work actively, it was a model worker and glorious. This is their chance. They were born in the era of Chairman Mao. If they were born in 2 1 century, it goes without saying that everyone can imagine what their situation would be like. People who work hard may always be humble, easily bullied, looked down upon, and even called "useless." Although they are the backbone and mainstream of society, not all silent devotees have such a good fate. Just as Baoxian education makes a large number of down-to-earth people become role models, it is an opportunity for Baoxian activities to make them shine. Why does the same material have completely different effects in different periods? Obviously, this is a question of opportunity, and opportunity will turn their efforts into success.

Another debater said, "What really determines success is the process of creating opportunities." I am glad to see that the other party has linked success with creating opportunities, and the other party has finally admitted the importance of opportunities. Does this also mean that opportunity is the key to success?

The other side also talked about the launch of the space shuttle. The weather is certainly an opportunity. The progress and development of China's economy, science and technology, and the scientific spring brought by the reform and opening up are all opportunities. Isn't it the key to the rapid development of China's space industry? How many inventions fell by the wayside in that turbulent era? How many scientific and technological workers' efforts have been wasted? Such sharp contrast, strong contrast, can't it show that opportunity is the key to success?

To sum up, we always believe that strength is the foundation, success is the goal and opportunity is the key.

Three arguments of the opposing side:

Ladies and gentlemen, debaters, hello. I am very happy to learn and communicate with you sincerely.

Please pay attention to another debater: "No pains, no gains". I think everyone understands this simple truth! We believe that success should be a combination of ability and never-say-die spirit. Opportunity is just icing on the cake, not success! No matter how good the opportunity is, people without ability will not succeed. He can only watch the opportunity slip away from him, so opportunity is not the key to success!

Bastin, a Frenchman, said: Opportunity will not help those who are not fully prepared. Yes, it's true. I don't think the other debater will deny it. To give the simplest example, "stealing needles when you are young, stealing gold when you grow up." I thought I had a chance to steal other people's needles when I was young. Later, when I grew up, I took advantage of many opportunities to steal and was brought to justice. Is this also "opportunity is the key to success"? Let's ask another debater to look at the successful courses in the real world!

The other debater mentioned the success of Super Girl and mistakenly thought that the stage of Super Girl made them famous overnight and gave them success. I think it is clear to everyone that the super girl stage in Qian Qian is also open for them, so why can't they become super girls? The key here is strength, not opportunity. Moreover, it is not difficult to see from the hardships of super girls along the way that they did not become famous overnight, but were inseparable from their own efforts. Look at those students who failed in the college entrance examination. Is it because they have no chance? Take the sentence that a swift horse meets Bole, because a horse is a swift horse. The key is how to strive to become a swift horse, not the opportunity to achieve its reputation. According to the other debater's point of view, whoever opens the stage of super girl will succeed! Opportunity is hard-won, so difficult. Without it, would you sit around all your life?

As the saying goes, gold always shines. Everyone is eager for success, and we should strive to improve ourselves in some specific aspects in order to reach the other side of success. Instead of waiting for the opportunity to come. What are the opportunities? Please don't confuse the concept! The most important thing for a person who is eager for success is to have a correct outlook on life and attitude towards life. Including self-confidence, enthusiasm and courage. We should also be good at applying the correct outlook on life and attitude towards life to the most basic behaviors such as studying hard, pursuing ideals, discovering interests, and interpersonal communication. Only by looking for the road to success in this logical order can everyone achieve success that suits his personality.

Einstein once said, "Opportunities only favor those who are prepared." A prepared mind refers to a person's subjective conditions, including the accumulation of personal knowledge and the preparation of thinking mode. The success of countless scientists in history tells us that a person who always creates subjective conditions and improves objective conditions is more likely to succeed than those who just wait for opportunities to appear. His outstanding talent is the greatest capital of success. Excuse me: another debater, the apple fell from the tree. Can you find gravity? Therefore, we believe that opportunity is not the key to success, opportunity is only a factor of success!

The pros and cons:

Up to now, the other debater can't explain what is the key to success except denying that opportunity is the key to success.

The other side thinks that opportunity is a successful partner, and the other side thinks that opportunity is just icing on the cake. I want to ask the other debater: Is it success before opportunity, or opportunity before success? Obviously, the other party is unwilling to admit the chronological order, and the cause and effect between the two are of course reversed.

I don't know if the other debater can't find a suitable example, but it's ridiculous to discuss success with a thief's example. I wonder if the other debater wants to be a successful thief?

In order to deny that gold shines because it has the opportunity to shine, the other side insists that gold shines. As we all know, light is emitted because of energy consumption, otherwise it can only be a reflection of light. If gold really shines, everyone should buy gold for lighting, which can save electricity. I really appreciate that the other debater has found a new solution in today's energy shortage, and the Nobel Prize is expected to be won by China people next year.

In order to deny the causal relationship between opportunity and success, the other party quoted the phrase "no pains, no gains". Can you harvest rice by plowing in the desert? Isn't there any drought and flood to ensure the harvest and let the farmers' hard work go down the drain? Does everything grow by the sun?

The opponent's argument is very poor, so he can only cut into our point of view and attack it out of context. We have always believed that strength is the foundation, success is the goal and opportunity is the key.

Two opposing views:

The opponent's debater repeatedly stressed that opportunity is the key to success, and the key is the decisive factor. He thought that opportunity decided success, but he never explained how the opportunity came. Can it be said that opportunities fall from the world? Or man-made?

If opportunities fall from the world, and we can only succeed if we seize these opportunities that we don't know when they will fall, then the success of promoting human progress again and again is irregular and random. Doesn't this determine our current view of historical development?

If opportunities are artificially created, then the process of creating opportunities determines everything? Or did opportunity create everything? What kind of success is bound to be accompanied by what kind of opportunities. For example, if we want to succeed in this debate, we must create opportunities to succeed in this debate. Because we can't have a successful debate here with the opportunity of unit leadership.

What kind of opportunities we want are determined by the process of creating opportunities, because if we want to achieve such success, we will inevitably create corresponding opportunities and achieve corresponding success in the near future.

Therefore, from the above point of view, we can draw a conclusion: it is not opportunity that determines success, and opportunity cannot be the key to success. In life, if you mistake opportunity for the key to success, you will definitely lose your direction on the road to success.

Three arguments of the opposing side:

Debaters, what we are going to debate today is not whether gold will shine. Please don't digress!

From a philosophical point of view, internal factors play a decisive role and external factors are important conditions. Of course, internal cause refers to one's own ability, and external cause is opportunity, so ability is the decisive factor. The example of our thief also confirms this view. Opportunity is not the key to success. From the perspective of normal interpersonal relationship, opportunity is only a man-made result. If you don't fight for it, the opportunity won't come by yourself, and waiting can only be a crushing defeat.

The "influence training" organization has done tens of thousands of surveys. The results show that 80% of the most critical factors that determine a person's success are personal self-value orientation and attitude factors, such as various abilities; 7% belongs to so-called objective factors such as luck, opportunity, environment, time, talent and background. Whether we can control objective factors depends on people's attitude, because it is rooted in our attitude towards objective factors and our grasp skills of objective factors. 100% success is due to attitude! In this world, all the rules of the game require you to pay a high price in exchange for your own interests. Use the right method to effectively operate your own resources, stick to it and improvise, and success will not be far away.

Let's remember this fascinating conclusion and realize more clearly that opportunity is not the key to success, but only a factor of success!

Dear opponent, let's think about success in this way of thinking, analyze the past in this way of thinking, grasp today and prepare for the future!

Positive debate:

Another debater said, "but he never explained how the opportunity came." Can it be said that opportunities fall from the world? Or man-made? " Please note that the topic we are discussing now is "the key to success of opportunity". Is it because the other party wants to debate "how did the opportunity come" by asking such questions? Then we can open another post and not be here with you.

Looking at the other party's speech, we obviously misinterpreted our point of view and tried to equate our argument that "opportunity is the key to success" with "waiting for the opportunity to come" without making efforts. We have to reiterate that the "opportunity" we are discussing is not equal to "good luck" or "fate". Chance of opportunity exists in the inevitable law of the development of things, and it is not a pie falling from the sky. Recognizing that opportunity is the key to success, it is not for people to wait, but to fully respect and grasp the objective laws in time, keenly observe the changes of things, and move at the right time to make their actions more purposeful and more in line with the requirements of the times. Many people in this world are working hard. Some people have achieved success, while others have wasted their lives. Why? It's hard to succeed in pulling a cart without looking at the road. It is shameful not to seize the opportunity when it comes and complain when it passes. There is an old saying that the golden wind has not moved the cicada. Successful people are good at discovering opportunities and grasping the key to success, so as to take action and reach the other side of victory first. A gentleman moves in time, and a hero comes out. One-sided emphasis on personal efforts, while ignoring objective laws, can not find opportunities, can not grasp the key to success, it is bound to be futile and fall short.

Three affirmative arguments:

Strangely, from the beginning to now, the other party has never mentioned what is the key to success. I wonder, why is this? Is it that the other party supports the opportunity as the key to success, but stands on the opposite side of the other party because of the opportunity and has to make a weak excuse? Or something else? Worthy of scrutiny!

The other party has been insisting until now: "What kind of success must be accompanied by what kind of opportunities", which makes us feel ridiculous. Is opportunity ahead or success behind? I think it's not difficult to scrutinize, right? Obviously, opportunities are ahead and success is behind. Success is only the result, and opportunity is the condition of success. Now that we have succeeded, what opportunities can we take advantage of? It can be seen that it is nonsense that opportunity is the companion of success, and it is correct that success is the companion of opportunity.

"If we want to succeed in this debate, we must create opportunities to succeed in this debate." Once again, I saw the other party mention that "if you want to succeed, you must create opportunities for success." I am really glad that the other party has repeatedly acknowledged the importance of opportunities. It seems that we have reached an agreement.

"What kind of opportunities we want are determined by the process of creating opportunities, because if we want to succeed ..., we will certainly create opportunities and succeed in the near future." Once again, I saw the other side admit the importance of opportunity. From beginning to end, we have seen similar remarks from each other many times. At this point, it seems unnecessary to argue whether opportunity is the key to success.
