Question

I grew up poor — living with six brothers, three sisters and my mother. We had little money, but plenty of love and 1. I was happy and energetic. I understood that no matter how poor a person was, he could still 2 a dream.
My dream was 3. By the time I was sixteen, I could throw a ninety-mile-per-hour baseball and 4anything that moved on the field. I was also 5: my high school coach was John, who not only 6me, but also taught me how to believe in myself. He 7me the difference between having a dream and showing conviction (信念). One particular incident with coach John changed my life forever.
A friend 8me for a summer job. This meant a chance for money in my pocket — money for a new bike, new clothes and the 9of savings for a house for my mother. Then I realized I would have to 10up summer baseball to handle the work schedule, and that meant I would have to tell John I wouldn’t be playing.
When I told John, he was as 11as I expected him to be. “You have your whole life to work,” he said, “Your 12days are limited. You can’t afford to waste them.” I stood before him with my head 13, trying to think of the words that would 14to him why my dream of buying my mom a house and having money in my pocket was worth facing his 15 in me.
“Well,” he asked, “is $3.5 an hour the 16of a dream?”
That simple question made 17to me the difference between 18something right now and having a goal. I devoted myself in sports that summer and 19the year I was chosen by the Pittsburgh Pirates to play baseball, and 20 a $ 20,000 contract(合同). Later, I bought my mother the house of my dream!
