The best way to describe success is that it is a matter of matching up opportunities, ________, and luck

A) intelligence
B) talent
C) skill
D) preparation

Answer: D
Explanation: There is no way to control luck, so the only way to take advantage of luck is to be prepared when something lucky occurs, making "preparation" the correct response. Talent, intelligence, and skill are all important for success, but they are not as important as preparation. Preparation is important because only the prepared person has the ability to recognize luck and be ready to take action once it is recognized.
