UNIT 1 LIFE CHOICES
=·阅读美文激活思维●
My family often had a get-together with friends in my childhood.As I was smart,there was
always someone who would come up to mention my high intelligence()and ask,"What are you
going to do when you grow up?"Well,it started out being a teacher or a hero.Later it was a fireman,
an artist...As I grew older,my dreams of the future changed.When I was going to college,I was
asked,"What will you major in?",another question designed to find out what I would be when I
grew up.
By then I made up my mind to become a computer programmer.So I was studying software for
much of my life.I was happy othat I could realize my dream.The realization of my life purpose
encourages me to help others to succeed in their own lives.
However,for many,there is a"thief"which goes around stealing our dreams and robbing(
us of the mental state to achieve our goals.Sometimes,the thief will come as a parent,a relative,
or a friend,but the greatest thief is just ourselves.
Usually when we are about to reach the goal,a "small"voice inside will say,"You will never
succeed.""Very few have ever done this successfully.And on and on the "small"voice makes us lose
heart and fail,
Failure,though,helps our dreams to come true.It is one of the most important tools we have,
because it teaches us valuable lessons.And,when we learn these lessons well,we are ready for success.
So just don't give up.Let dreams stay in your life.
