题目内容:
I have a friend named Monty Roberts who owns a horse ranch (牧场).He has let me use his ranch to raise money for youth at risk programs.
The last time I was there he told me his story. When he was young, his family is too ___ to have a house to live in. When he was in high school, he was asked to write a paper about ____ he wanted to be and do when he grew up. That night he wrote a seven-page paper describing his goal of someday ____ a horse ranch. He wrote about his dream in great ___ and he even drew a picture to show a 4,000-square-foot house that would sit on a 200-acre dream ranch. The next day he handed it in to his teacher. Two days later he received his paper back. On the front page was a large red F with a note that read, "See me after class." Roberts went to see the teacher and asked, "Why did I receive an F?" His teacher said, "This is a(an) ____ dream for a young boy like you. Having a horse ranch requires a lot of money. There's no way you could ever do it." Then the teacher added, "If you will rewrite this paper with a more possible goal, I will reconsider your ____."
The boy went home and thought about it for a ____ and hard time. He asked his father what he should do. His father said, "Look, son, you have to ____ your own mind on this." Finally, after sitting with it for a week, the boy turned in the same paper, making no ____ at all. He told his teacher,"You could keep the F and I will ____ keep my dream."
Monty tells me this story because I am sitting in his 4,000-square-foot house in the middle of his 200-acre horse ranch. He said kids' dreams can be stolen. Don't let anyone steal your dreams. Follow your heart, no matter what.
