As young students, you have many dreams. 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?
Follow Your Heart by Andrew Matthews, an Australian writer, 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. Those kinds of ideas stop you from realizing your dream, the books says.
In fact, everyone can realize 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 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 dreams. 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.

Recently，a very simple question became widely spread online：what China should be proud of？（61）
Lanlan，whose real name is Negar Kordi，is from Canada．She came to China five years ago and is a student at Ningbo University．Now she has 120，000fans on the Internet and the number is still growing．
Lanlan loves China and Chinese．（62） And that's why she is so well received among Chinese net friends．The following is china in her eyes．
"It is the easiest country in which to find a job．If you are not too lazy，it is really very simple to find a job in China．I believe there're more job chances here than in any other country in the wold．"
"（63） About 400million Chinese are studying English．If they can speak good English in the future，China will have the greatest number of English speakers of any non﹣English speaking country．"
"The speed of Chinese trains is fast．From Ningbo to Beijing，the train runs 1，365kilometers for seven hours and the ticket fare is only 595yuan．"
"Its public security is great．（64） I have travelled in many countries，and I think China really is very safe．"
"There are much more things China should be proud of．Many Chinese people often criticize（批评）China．At first，I believed that they didn't like china or that they loved western countries．But later，I realized that they just set a very high standard for China．（65） China must be much better than other countries．"

Let children learn to judge（判断） their own work．A child doesn't learn to talk by being corrected all the time．If he is corrected too much，he will stop talking．He notices a thousand times a day the differences between the language he uses and the language others use．Little by little，he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people's．
In the same way，children learn to do all the other things without being taught﹣to walk，run，climb or ride a bicycle．They compare their performances with those of more skilled people，and slowly make the changes．But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes and correct them himself．We do it all for him．We thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him，to correct it unless he has made to．Soon he becomes dependent on the teacher．Let him work out with the help of other children if he wants it．
If it is a matter in math or science，give him the answer book．Let him correct his own papers． Why should we teachers waste time on such daily work ？Our job should be to help the children when they tell us that he can't find the way to get the right answer．Let the children learn what all educated persons must learn，how to measure（估量） their own understanding，how to know what they know or do not know．
Let them get on with this job in their ways．School teachers can offer help if they ask for it．Some parents and teachers are worried that the children might fail to learn something that they will need to get in the world．Don't worry! If it is important，they will go out into the world and learn it．
