    As school kids, we have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, 1winning 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 have found a dream, what do you do with it? Have you ever tired to2your dream? Follow Your Heart by Australian writer Andrew Matthews tells us that realizing our dreams is3biggest challenge.

    You may think you don't do well in some school subjects, or that it is4for you to become a writer. These kinds of thoughts stop you from getting your dream, the book says.

5, everyone can realize their dream. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is. Don't let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself6, and then you realize your dream faster. Do this step by step. A dream cannot be realized in one day. A big dream is, actually, many small dreams. You must also never drop your dream.7will be difficulties on the road to realizing it. But the biggest difficulty comes from yourself. You need to decide what is8among them: Studying instead of watching TV will lead to better exam results, while9five yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book.

    As you get closer10your dream, it may change a little. This is good as you have the chance to learn more skills and find new interests.

    Read the following information and find out the right place to develop your hobby during the summer holiday.

    May is a beautiful month full of sunshine and flowers. It is also the month when we show thanks to our mothers on Mother's Day.

    In my family, every year's Mother's Day celebration is different. Two years ago, I made breakfast in bed for my mom and she still remembers all the dishes I cooked. Last year, I bought her a selfie stick (自拍杆) with the money that I made from selling some of my old books. She uses it all the time.

    I wanted to do something special on this "special" Mother's Day this year. In April, I started to search for different gift ideas on the Internet. Finally, I decided to make a paper box by hand with cards. It took me a long time to make the cover fit properly. I also put a small bag of colorful chocolates in the box. The messages I wrote on the cards were some small favors (恩惠) I could do for my mom, such as washing dishes.

    On the night before Mother's Day, I asked my mom to go to sleep early so that I could go into her room and put the present next to her bed. When she woke up, she was very excited about my gift and spent a lot of time looking at every tiny detail (细节) of the box.

    My mom is my hero and she has gave up her job to take care of me. I am glad that there is a special day in May for me to honor my mom and show her my thankfulness and love.

    Is there a connection (联系) between music and language? According to recent studies, the answer is yes: Music improves certain language abilities in the brain. Here are two examples.

    A recent study by researcher Kraus shows that playing a musical instrument can improve a person's hearing ability. In his study two groups of people listened to a person talking in a noisy room. The people in the first group were musicians, while those in the second group had no musical training. The musicians were able to hear the talking person more clearly.

    The violinists develop their memories by playing the violin. When the violinists in an orchestra (管弦乐团) play with the group, they hear their own instrument and many others, too. But the violinists must listen closely to what they are playing, and pay no attention to the other sounds. In this way, musicians are able to focus on certain sounds, even in a room with lots of noise.

    Schlaug, a doctor at Harvard Medical School, works with stroke (中风) patients. Because of their illness, these people cannot say their names, addresses, or other information normally. However, they can still sing. Schlaug was surprised to find that singing words helped his patients to speak. Why does this work? Schlaug isn't sure. Music seems to make different parts of the brain work, including the damaged (损坏的) parts. This might help patients to use that part of the brain again.

    Music improves concentration (注意力), memory, listening skills, and our all language abilities. It can even help sick people get better. Playing an instrument or singing can help us do better in school and keep our brain sharp as we get older. Music is not only enjoyable, it's also good for us in many other ways.

    When I was in a primary school, I had an argument with a boy in my class. But I have never forgotten the lesson I learned that day.

    I was sure that I was right and he was wrong-and he was just as sure that I was wrong and he was right. She brought us up to the front of the class and asked him to stand on one side of her desk and me on the other. In the middle of her desk was a large, round object. I could clearly see that it was black. She asked the boy what color the object was. "White" he answered.

    I couldn't believe he said the object was white, when it was clearly black! This time about the color of object.

    The teacher told me to go and stand where the boy was standing and told him to come and stand where I had been. and then she asked me what the color of the object was. I had to answer, "White." It was an object with two differently colored sides, and from his side it was white. Only from my side it was black.

    You must stand in the other persons' shoes and looked at the situation through their eyes in order to truly understand them.

    One day, when I arrived at school, an ice cream truck was parked in the schoolyard. Ice cream mendrove their trucks to primary schools. I had never thought one ice cream truck would come to bring ice cream to us older kids. When I went up to the truck, I was to hear the man call out, "Free ice cream!" To make sure of his words, I asked, "I'm sorry, what did you say?" "Free ice cream. whichever you like." he said with a smile.

    After I was sure that the man was just the ice ream, I talked with him for a long time. He told me that his dream had always been to travel around doing this. With his mother's support, he kept doing what he loved even during hard times. Now, however, some large companies are helping him with his plan. The man said he wanted to let people know exactly what their hearts told them to do with their . I kept asking him, "So your dream was just to drive and give away ice cream? It seems like quite a very unusual goal. "Yes, meeting people and making smile were just my dreams," he replied. At that time he handed me an ice cream. I thanked him, but what I got from him wasthan just an ice cream. It can't be easilyin words. I believe what he was doing is exactly what great people do all the time: small acts of big love.

    April 27 is a special day in Britain. It's called Take Our Daughter to Work Day. It was brought to Britain in 1994 from America. On that day thousands of girls take a day off school and go with one of their parents to their work places. By doing this, it can teach girls more about the society where they live.

    Now the girls can have a close look at what their parents are doing. This may help them to be calmer when they have to choose a job. Mary experienced a day of work at her mother's office. This helped her understand her mother's work better. She said that this made her feel more confident about her future.

    Schools and many companies support this activity, too. Some schools even make the day a necessary part of school life. Experts think that girls with more self-confidence are more probably to be successful than common girls. If parents can set good examples both at work and at home for them, they will do better than others. Take Our Daughter to Work Day is surely a step in the right direction.
