As young students, you have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, such as .winning the Nobel Prize. They can also be small. You may just want to become 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 Australian writer Andrew Marthews tells us that making our dreams real is 1ife'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. "These kinds of ideas stop you from getting to your dream" the book says.

In fact, everyone can make his dream come tree. 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 your dream will come true faster because a big dream is, in fact, 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.

As you get closer to your dream, it may change a little. This is good as you have the chance to learn something more useful and find new hobbies.

We all have days when we are down, tired and unhappy. That's OK. You need days like this, or how would you know you are happy? You'll enjoy your good days even more when you have a few bad days. Even if sadness is a part of life, let's try to make it small. Here are a few simple ways to help you feel better when you are feeling sad.

1 Stand up straight and this helps your energy flow( 流动 ).When your energy is flowing freely, you can flow too.

2 Smile! It's easy to do and have good results. This way can not only leave you in a good mood but also bring others a good mood.

3 Listen to music. It can be your favourite music. Some kinds of music work better than others, so try and find out what kind of music works the best for you.

4 Take some "me" time. You can find pleasure in reading a book, watching a sunrise or having a hot bath, or something like that.

5 Exercise. Even something as simple as taking a walk will get your blood flowing. It is a great way to clear your mind of anything that makes you sad.

These ways will cheer you up when you are down, but don't just use them when you are sad. Try and practice them every day to make them a habit. You will be surprised to learn that these simple ways will keep your sadness away. But if you are in a deep depression (沮丧), go to see the doctor.

Do you know that a student can produce up to 240 pounds of school waste and lots of waste gas during a term? This includes transportation, food, paper, pens, pencils and so on.

Transportation

Many parents like driving their kids to school every day. We all know waste gas from cars is a main cause of air pollution. If parents who live in a neighborhood can take turns to drive their kids to school each day, that'll be better. Another way of going green is to walk to school if students live near it.

Food

It is surprising that only one primary school could produce up to 19,000 pounds of lunch waste each year. That is only one school. One way to help take care of the environment is to stop using plastic bags. There are all kinds of environmental boxes for students to put their food in.

Paper, pens and pencils

A lot of paper is thrown away by American students. They throw away about 1.6 billion pens every year. They waste many pens and the chemicals of them are bad for the environment. Much more pencils are thrown away than pens. Pencils are made of trees, so ifmore pencils are thrown away, more trees will be cut down. So students should reuse paper, pens and pencils instead of throwing them away.

Backpacks

As fashion comes and goes, almost every kid needs a new backpack every year. They can save a lot

of money and materials if they reuse the same schoolbags.

1.What's the good way of going green for the students who live near the school?

2.How much lunch waste does one primary school produce each year?

3.What will happen if more pencils are thrown away?

4.Why should we reuse the same backpacks?

5.What can we do to go green in our daily life? (写出一点,言之有理即可)
