【题目】 After nearly a decade of being in love with yoga, I made a courageous decision. I decided that I wanted to become a yoga teacher. Meanwhile, I made a list for those who will chase or are chasing a dream.

Remember that it’s meant to challenge you.

1The only way that growth can occur within you is that you can find something that challenges you, and work through it. You may feel overwhelmed by challenge at some point, but the reward of achieving your dream is a way more fulfilling than never going after what you want to achieve at all.

Be careful who you ask for advice.

While chasing your dream, you will get to a point where you want to give up. You’ll question the cause of your dream and question whether you should continue.2Find wisdom from those who are encouraging of your dream, and who understand what it means to you.

Believe in yourself.

The only way you’ll be able to follow through with your commitment to your dream is by believing that you can do it.3However, their opinion only goes so far if you believe that you are capable. In addition, if you believe in yourself, when others doubt you, it isn’t worth being concerned about because you have found faith in yourself, and that’s all that matters.

4

It takes a lot of courage to give everything that you have to achieve a goal when it might be criticized, judged or rejected. Many see failure as an ending, when it could be a beginning of another journey that leads to your dream.

Starting trying today.

In a year, you’ll wish you’d started today what you hope to achieve. If you don’t try today, how will you feel in a year? Time passes quicker than we can sometimes grasp, and today will eventually lead to the following year.5

A.Be open to failure and rejection.

B.Yes, your dream needs to be big.

C.Others can tell you that you’re capable.

D.Everything begins in the heart and mind.

E.Don’t just sit around and think about what you want.

F.During this time, be cautious with where you seek advice.

G.Growth doesn’t happen by living in stability, comfort or at ease.

【题目】 Legos have been a kind of popular toys for children for more than 60 years. When children get older, boxes of plastic Lego bricks often end up unused and stored in out-of-the-way places around the homes. Parents sometimes end up throwing the Legos away.

Now, the Lego Group toy company is testing a program to make sure the unwanted bricks do not go to waste. The program is called Lego Replay. It aims to make sure the unwanted building blocks continue to make children happy.

Tim Brooks is the Lego company’s vice president of environmental sustainability. He said, "Nearly all Lego bricks we see that are out there have lots more play value in them — multi-generation of play value. It’s a waste of energy and resources to grind them up (碾碎)and make new bricks. ”

Brooks said the idea came from parents who do not know what to do with the old bricks. Placing old Legos in waste containers is not a good answer. Birds and other wildlife may try to eat what looks like Colorful food — with deadly results.

With the Lego Replay program, parents load unwanted Legos of all shapes and colors into boxes. Then, they go to the program website and print out a mailing label. The boxes are sent to processing centers, where the bricks are sorted, cleaned and shipped to aid groups and donation centers.

The Lego Replay test program is set to last through March. If it is successful, the program may be expanded to include other Lego products.

The Lego Group is also looking at other materials to use in their toys. While plastic has proved to be the strongest material, Lego has begun making some bricks out of sugar cane(甘蔗).

1What’s the main purpose of Lego Replay?

A.To entertain those children without toys.

B.To make unwanted Lego bricks reused.

C.To prevent parents to throw the Legos away.

D.To avoid using unwanted bricks by storing them.

2Where are unwanted Lego bricks sorted and cleaned according to Lego Replay?

A.At processing centers.

B.At donation centers.

C.On the program website.

D.In the owners’ homes.

3What does Brooks probably agree with?

A.Lego bricks waste too many resources.

B.Unwanted Lego bricks still have value.

C.We should store old Legos in waste containers.

D.Lego bricks are favorite food of some birds.

4What does the Lego Group explore according to the last paragraph?

A.More other Lego products.

B.Proper use of plastics.

C.Similar products to sugar cane.

D.New materials of producing bricks.
