The self

Immediately following the birth of a big dream, a negative self-talk takes over and gives all the reasons why it can′t happen. This inside voice is the ego (自我). It is there for protecting and should be listened to. Sometimes it is right, but more often it is wrong. 12 That′s why only a handful of people make their dreams come true.

13

Family and friends are a lot like the ego. They want to protect those they love, so they will often list all the reasons why the big dreams won′t come true. Sometimes, family and friends destroy dreams of those they love most, out of their own fear of being left behind.

The world

If one gets past the first two barriers, one has to face the world. 14 In the past, big dreamers were locked up and sometimes even killed when they were shown to the world. Fortunately, in most of the world today, big dreamers just get laughed at.

The way to realize a big dream is with confidence and action. When children have confidence and then take action, they will be ready to accept any failure. The truth is that every great dreamer whose dreams have never seen the light of success knows failure well. 15 A.How big dreams die B.Family and friends

C.They simply fail until they succeed. D.Does a big dream show one′s future? E.Most people are influenced by the inside voice. F.It is the last and the most terrible barrier.

G.And their big dream is to be a rock star or a famous artist. Ⅱ.完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)

第二节:读后续写(满分25分)

阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。

One pleasant New Year morning, Edward got up and dressed himself in a hurry. He wanted to be the first to wish everyone a happy New Year. He went into every room, and shouted the words of welcome. Then he ran into the street to repeat them to those he met. When he came back, his father gave him two bright, new silver dollars. His face lighted up as he took them. He had wished for a long time to buy some nice books that he had seen at the bookstore. As he ran down the street with a light heart to the bookshop, he saw a poor German family—the father, mother, and three children shivering(发抖) in the cold wind.

“I wish you a happy New Year,” said Edward, as he was happily passing by. The man shook his head. “You do not belong to this country?” asked Edward. The man again shook his head, for he could not understand or speak English. But he pointed to his mouth, and to the children, as if to say, “These little ones have had nothing to eat for a long time.” Edward quickly understood that these people were poor and in a very difficult situation and required some help. He took out his dollars, and gave one to the man, and the other to his wife.
