As teenagers, you have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, like 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(一旦) 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 Mathews tells us that making our dreams real is life’s biggest challenge.
“You may think you’re 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,” the book says.
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(一步一步地) 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 watching TV will bring you better exam results, 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. This is good as you have the chance to learn more skills(技能) and find new interests.
根据短文内容，选择正确答案。
( )71. “Follow Your Heart” is .
A. The first thing you must do to make your dream real
B. The most important dream to have for teenagers

My Future Robot—Superman
I have a dream—in the future I will have a robot. I will call it Superman. Superman can do many things for me. He will clean the house and go shopping, so I will have more time to study and exercise. He will also play chess and computer games with me, because I don’t have any brothers or sisters. Superman will be a good teacher, too. He can answer all of my questions. How great it will be! I hope my dream will come true.
