What do you think? Are we born with talent? Do we develop talent through practice? When it comes to talent, which is more important? Read the following essay. Then, explain your opinions clearly and logically in about 75 word in English.
What accounts for Talent? What is talent? Are we born with it? In the 1890s, Francis Galton decided to study the families of talented musicians, artists, athletes, etc. He discovered that the children of great artists were likely to be gifted at art, as well. Consequently, people began to believe that we are either born with talent or we are not. About one hundred years later, experts started to note that many of the very successful people we call “talented” had actually spent thousands of hours working on their so-called talent. These specialists reasoned that practice may be more important than talent. In the 1990s, author Malcolm Gladwell introduced a theory called the “10,000-hour rule.” The idea was that if someone practiced something for 10,000 hours they would become good enough to be called “talented.” He looked at people like Microsoft creator Bill Gates, who spent all of his time programming computers as a teenager. He added up the time someone like Gates spent and came up with the “10,000-hour rule.” It is clear that very “talented” people like baseball player Ichiro Suzuki, put in thousands of hours of practice. The importance of practice cannot be denied. The question remains… is someone like Ichiro born with special talent, or can anyone of us put in the practice hours and become one of the truly “talented” ones? |
