As teenagers, you have many dreams. These dreams can be very _______, such as winning the Nobel Prize, or _______ can be small. You may just want to become one of the ten best students in your class. Once you find a dream, _______ do you do with it? Do you ever try to make your dream real?

You may think you’re not very good at some school subjects, or that it is _______ for you to become a writer. These kinds of thoughts _______ you from getting your dream, the book says. In fact, everyone can make his dream come true. The first thing you must do is to remember what your _______ is.

Don’t let it leave your heart. Keep telling _______ what you want. Do this step by step and your dream will come true faster because a big dream is, in fact, made up of many small dreams. So never _______ your dream.

There will be difficulties on the road to your dreams. But the biggest _______ comes from yourself. You need to decide what is the most important.

The first place I can remember well was a pleasant field with a pond of clear water in it. Trees made shadows over the pond, and water plants grew at the deep end. On one side was another field, and on the other side we looked over a gate at our master's house, which stood by the roadside. At the top of our field were more tall trees, and at the bottom was a fast-running stream.

While I was young, I lived on my mother's milk, but as soon as I was old enough to eat grass, my mother went out to work during the day and came back in the evening. There were six other young horses in my field, although they were older than I was. We all galloped (飞驰)together round the field, and had great fun. But sometimes the others would kick and bite.

"They are young farm horses and haven't learned how to behave," my mother told me. "You are different. Your father is well known, and your grandfather twice won the most important race at Newmarket. Your grandmother was quiet and gentle, and you have never seen me kick or bite, have you? I hope you will grow up to be gentle and a willing worker, and never bite or kick. "

I have never forgotten my mother's advice. She was a clever and sensible(明智的)old horse.

Viral Marketing

Companies are always on the lookout for new ways to sell products. We're used to seeing ads in newspapers and on television. In recent years, a new type of ad strategy — viral marketing ( 病毒 性 营 销 ) — has become popular. It uses the Internet to spread information about a product or service.

The idea of viral marketing is the "word of mouth" effect, that is, to get people to recommend( 推 荐 , 介 绍 ) a product to others. On the Internet, that can be done by email messages. Or, the information may be posted on forums, blogs, and other websites.

Advertisers can't force people to spread their message. So, they must think of creative ways to get people to help out. One good way is to give something away. For example, when somebody sends an email using a Hotmail account, there's an ad on the bottom. It tells others how to get a free account. Other companies give away branded screensavers, wallpaper, and sounds. Whenever they're seen or shared, it advertises the product.

Another way is funny and interesting videos. When someone comes across a great ad for BMW, they may send a link to their friends. They may even add the video to a forum or blog. Companies love the effect. It gets more people to watch their ads, visit their websites, and hopefully, buy their products.

Unfortunately, it's hard to plan viral marketing activities. There are many ads and websites on the Internet. So, designers and marketers must think up creative new strategies. If something is funny, interesting, or useful enough, people will tell their friends about it. If it includes giving something away, the viral marketing activity may be even more successful.
