As teenagers, you have many dreams. The 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 try to make your dream real? Follow Your Heart by an Australian writer Andrew Matthews 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 stop you from achieving your dream,” the book says.
In fact, everyone can achieve his dream. 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 because a big dream is formed by 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 lead to better exam results. While saving five yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book.

A. If it is difficult to achieve your dream, you may give up.
B. You must remember what your dream is.
C. Your dream will never help you learn more skills.
D. On the road to your dream, the biggest difficulty doesn’t come from yourself.
【答案】20. D 21. D 22. C 23. B

Passage2
As teenagers, you have many dreams. The 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 try to make your dream real? Follow Your Heart by an Australian writer Andrew Matthews 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 stop you from achieving your dream,” the book says.
In fact, everyone can achieve his dream. 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 because a big dream is formed by 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 lead to 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 and find new interests.

A. Failing your exam. B. Having many challenges.
