Question

From the time I was in the third grade, I knew I wanted to be a writer. After the first prize for my story, I spent much of my free time writing wild stories of strange living animals, kids’ fun experiences and poems(诗) of I felt about my world. In the fourth grade, I continued to write. I always took a small notebook with me so I could write whenever I felt writing something down on it.

When I started the fifth grade, my English teacher was Mrs. Foster. She was the teacher I’d ever had. She always had something nice to say about everyone, and she failed to say it out loud. I loved her much that I showed her my notebook and what I had been writing ever since the third grade. When she returned my to me, she had written encouraging notes on them, which made me really great.

“Don’t give up your dream, Kathy,” she said, “I didn’t give up . I always wanted to be a teacher, and here I am.”

I did what Mrs. Foster encouraged me to do. Now I have had most of my stories published (出版) in books and magazines.

The secret of success is to your dream. And sometimes, it takes other dreamers to help keep your dreams alive. I’m glad Mrs. Foster was a dreamer too.
