We all have dreams,but some people actually make their dreams come true. Their secret? They stop dreaming,and they take steps to reach the life goal.
Maybe your dream is to become a doctor. Start by thinking about smal goals for yourself. Ask,"What can I do today?"You can't start medical school today,but you can send e-mails and make phone calls to get information about medical schools. Make a list of schools to call,and then call a few of them every day.
Another good idea is talking to people who are doing your dream job. Do you dream about having your own restaurant?Go to your favorite restaurant and ask the owner lots of questions. You may learn from their experiences.
What do you need for your dream?Tell friends and family members--many of them can help you. For example,you want to become an artist. You need a lot of cheap paper of drawing. Maybe your friend's brother throws away a lot of big paper at his office. |
A. Start Today
B. Ask for Help
C. Find Your Dream
D. Learn From Other People
E. From Dream to Real Life

{#blank#}1{#/blank#}Have you ever hiccupped(打嗝)in a quiet room full of people? Have you ever hiccupped so hard that you had to stop what you were doing? The hiccup is a problem that almost everyone has experienced.
{#blank#}2{#/blank#}People get hiccups for some reasons. Hiccups might result from eating or drinking too much or too quickly.

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}Ideas on how to stop hiccups have been created, shared, and tried for years. However, what works for one person may not work for everyone.

{#blank#}5{#/blank#}Mallory wanted to find out whether her lollipops would help others. She gave her lollipops to friends. Most of them were cured of their hiccups after eating the lollipops. Mallory entered a competition with her lollipop and won three awards for her creative idea. She was successful.
