These dreams can be very big, such as winning the Nobel Prize; they can also be small, such as becoming one of the 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?Andrew Matthews, an/Australian writer, tells us that making your dreams real is lifes biggest challenge. You may think youre not very good at some school subjects, or that its impossible for you to become a writer. Those kinds of ideas stop you from realizing your dream.In fact, everyone can realize his dream. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is. Dont let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want every day and then your dream will come true faster. You should know that a big dream is, in fact, made up of many small dreams.You must also never give up your dream. There will be difficulties on the road to your dream. But the biggest difficulty comes from yourself. You need to decide what is the most important. Studying instead of watching TV will help you to get 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 means that when they dont know a word, they are going to make a mistake. This makes children dislike reading. After having taught fifth-grade classes for four years, I decided to make children read for themselves.One day after school, I said to them, Now Im going to say something about reading. I would like you to read a lot ofbooks this year, but I want you to read them only for pleasure. I am not going to ask you questions. Im not going to ask you what words mean either.The children sat silent. Was this a teacher talking? One girl looked at me for a long time. Then she said seriously, Mr Holt, do you really mean that? I said just as seriously, I mean every word of it.During the spring she really surprised me. One day, she was reading at her desk. From the introduction I thought I knew what the book was. Then I took a closer look. I was sure that she was reading Moby Dick. I said, Dont you find parts of it very difficult? She answered, Sure, but I just skip over(略过) those parts and go on to the next good part.This is exactly what reading should be. Take the good parts, skip the bad parts and go on to something else.（1）How long has the writer taught fifth-grade classes?A . 1 year.B . 2 years .C . 3 years.D . 4 years.（2）Why should children read books accordi
