When I was a naughty boy, may be because of theinfluence of the film."Xiao Bing Zhang Ga",my dreamwas to be a soldier just like Zhang Ga. I thought if Iwas a soldier, I should be able to swim, dive andclimb trees as he did. It seemed to be verywonderful. So I began to learn swimming, diving andclimbing trees. I practiced every day and finally Icould do them well. But when I entered junior highschool and had the military training. I suddenlyfound that being a soldier was very difficult and Iwasn't strong enough to bear it . I had to give mydream up.
But I wasn't discouraged, and I had new aim, which was to be a postman, or rather to bea newspaper boy. As a newspaper boy. I could speed along streets on a bike and thrownewspapers onto every porch. That's also very cool. So I started learning to ride a bicycle.After the everyday practice, I could go very fast by bicycle. But to my disappointment, the jobwhich I wanted only existed in western counties not in China, because there was no porch inChina. And Chinese postmen had to stuff very thick newspapers into very small mailboxes fromvery narrow entrances. The job was far from what I had expected. So once again my dream fellthrough.
Perhaps you have had the same experience as I and most of your dreams haven't cometrue yet. But I think it doesn't matter, because if you have a dream, you'll make many effortsto realize it. This course is really important. If I hadn't dreamt of being a soldier or anewspaper boy. I wouldn't have learned to swim, to dive, to climb trees or to ride a bicycle.Even if our dream can't come true, you'll learn much from the efforts you have made. Sowhat I want to tell us is that dream helps us to grow up and teaches us how to control ourlives . It is dream that gives us power and makes our lives colorful.
