What is Success?
The standard of identifying success is not how much money and authority you own,
but how close your life becomes to the one you long (to/for).
~ Tracy
衡量成功與否的標準並不是你擁有多少錢與權,
而是你離夢想的人生有多靠近。

## 難句解析 :
how much 與 how close 作為 conjunction 連接詞 的用法,就像中文的「轉品」,詞性是可以轉換的喔!記得嗎,Tracy老師上課提到:After a conjunction, it must be a sentence (S.+V.)。所以在此句中不能寫成 ”
The standard of identifying success is not how much money and authority you own,
S. V. conj. S. V.
but how close your life becomes to the one you long (to/ for).
conj. S. V. C (補語)
conj. S. V. C (補語)
