Jimmy looked at the calendar (日歷).  He was not happy and hit (打) the calendar. 

“What are you doing?” asked his sister Susan. 

“I’m looking at the calendar.” 

“I see that, but why are you hitting it?”

閱讀下文并回答問題。

As teenagers, you have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, such as winning the Nobel Prize, or they can be small. You may just want to become one of the ten best students in your class.

Once you find a dream, what do you do with it? Do you ever try to make your dream real?

Follow Your Heart by Australian writer Andrew Matthews tells us that making our dreams real is life’s biggest challenge (挑戰(zhàn)).

You may think you are not very good at some school subjects, or that it is impossible for you to become a writer. These kinds of thoughts (想法) stop you from getting your dream.

In fact, everyone can make his dream come true. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is.

Don’t let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want. Do this step by step and your dream will come true faster because a big dream is, in fact, many small dreams.

You must also never give up your dream.

There will be difficulties on the road to your dreams. But the biggest difficulty comes from yourself. You need to decide what is the most important. Studying instead of (代替) watching TV will get better grades, while saving five yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book. As you get closer to your dream, it may change a little.

1.Will there be difficulties on the road to our dreams?

_______________________________________________________________________________

2.What does Follow Your Heart tell us?

________________________________________________________________________________

3.What’s the first thing you must do if you want to make your dream real?

_______________________________________________________________________________

4.Do you want to make your dream real? Why or why not?
