2. Main ideas of the parts

Part I — Paras. 1 – 2

By using Winston Churchill’s story and his speech at Harrow as an introduction to the topic, the text makes clear its statement: the secret of success is  “Never give up”. 

Part II — Paras. 3 – 7

Through the examples of world famous scientists, statesman, and jurist, the text brings forward the statement that only those with a strong will, those who “keep their eyes on the prize”, and those who expend the substantial effort to keep going, will finally succeed.

Part III — Para. 8

By reinforcing the statement given in part II, the text draws the conclusion that with hard work, determination, dedication and preparation, you can transcend any handicap, accomplish any feat, and achieve success.
