Golden Dreams
Brad 1 again. He got up and walked away from the track(跑道). He felt too sad to start again.
Later that night Brad sat on his bed, thinking 2 he was going to win the race. The sports meeting day was only about a month away.
Dad said, “Lots of people trip over(被……绊倒)their own two feet, so do I. I think you get it from me. Your mother spent a long time teaching me how to dance.” 3 that did not make Brad feel any better.
Brad wanted to win a race - just one race. But how could he do that? He did not know. Then he thought of something Dad always said: “Start small but think big. Brad had no difficulty thinking big. He really wanted to win a gold medal. But what did Dad 4 about starting small?
Brad asked his mother for 5 . She told Brad the process that she had taught his father to dance. She said they 6 with little steps and they repeated many times. Finally, Brad’s father became a good dancer!
The next morning Brad was ready to start small, one step at a time. He went to school and walked the track before class started. For the first week he walked slowly. For the second week he walked 7 . For the third week he ran slowly. For the last week he ran as fast as he could. He wasn’t running - he was like 8 !
On the sports meeting day, the race began. Brad took off as if he had wings on his feet. When the race was over, he had 9 in second place and won the silver medal. Brad 10 held up the medal and said, “Next year this will be gold!”
