How can people become famous?
人怎样才能成名?
I wish I knew the answer to that, so I could become famous myself!
I imagine one would require three things in order to become famous: a talent, hard work and a lot of luck.
I reckon luck is the biggest factor. I remember reading a story about Harrison Ford, one of the most famous Hollywood stars of the last 40 years. Harrison Ford couldn't get any acting roles and ended up working as a carpenter. He landed a job fitting cabinets in the home of George Lucas, the director of the original Star Wars movies. Lucas invited Ford to audition for a role in one of his movies, and Ford got the job. The rest is history!

我希望我知道这个问题的答案,这样我自己就可以出名了!
我想一个人要成名需要三件事:天赋、努力和运气。
我认为运气是最重要的因素。我记得读过一个关于哈里森·福特的故事,他是过去40年里最著名的好莱坞明星之一。哈里森·福特一开始找不到任何表演角色,最后成了一名木匠。他在《星球大战》第一部的导演乔治·卢卡斯家里找到了一份装配橱柜的工作。卢卡斯邀请福特为他的一部电影试镜,福特得到了那份工作。剩下的人尽皆知!
