A general introduction of Bill Gates
Para. 2 Gates’ success stems from his personality: an
unbelievable and at times frightening blend of highvoltage brilliance, drive and competitiveness. When the
chairman and CEO walks through the corridors of
Microsoft, it is like a switch being turned on; everything
and everyone around him is charged with 10,000 volts of
electricity. Gates sets the example and Microsoft
employees follow. The schedule he keeps is one hint as to
what he expects from his employees. It’s not unusual for
the “dean” of the “Microsoft campus” to put in 16-hour
days.

Example
成功源自1%的灵感和99%的汗水。
Success stems from 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration.
