When we think about the dreams we have, it is surprising to see how many people failed even if they could have succeeded. So today I’m going to tell you five ways to kill your dreams.
Believe in overnight success.
Everyone knows the story of a tech guy who built a mobile app and sold it for a lot of money. ___1.__ If you investigate further, you will find that he is well educated and has been working on the project for 20 years. Therefore, your overnight success is always a result of what you’ve done in your life.
__2.___
Constantly, people around you always have opinions on which path you should take. But whichever way you choose, there are other ways you have to pick as well. And one day you need to solve those problems yourself.
Decide to rest when success is guaranteed.
When your life is going great and everything is set—time to rest. Actually, when you’re growing towards a peak, you need to work even harder and find yourself another peak. If you were content with what you’ve accomplished, it would stop you from a greater success. __3.__
Believe the fault is someone else’s.
I constantly see people saying, “I created this great product, but the market is so bad.” If you have dreams, it’s your responsibility to make them happen. Yes, the market may be bad. But if no one bought your product, surely there is something there that is your fault. __4.__
Believe that the only things that matter are the dreams themselves.
Achieving a dream is a short moment, but your life is not. __5.___ And the only way to really achieve all of your dreams is to fully enjoy every step of your journey.
A. When we face difficulties, believe in ourselves.
B. The overnight success inspires so many people.
C. The story may seem real, but I bet it’s incomplete.
D. Be responsible for your own dreams.
E. Life is never about the goals themselves.
F. There’s no time to settle down.
G. Believe someone else has the answers for you.

Technology today has stolen away our voices and robbed our children of memories. I’ve been keeping count of how often people sing around the house these days. The fact is, they don’t.
My earliest memories are of my mother crooning lullabies(催眠曲) in a gentle low voice as she rocked each infant in turn. She said she “didn’t have a singing voice,” but her low, wavering alto will always mean comfort to me. Every time I have sat through the night with a feverish body or held a pre – schooler through a nightmare, the melodies returned, words appearing and disappearing like fragments of a dream but held together by the hum (低声吟唱)of love.
Today, young mothers are routinely presented with lullaby tapes at the baby shower. When baby cries, the idea goes, they will be able to switch on the high-tech audio system and the little one will drift off with the voices of strangers in his ears, perfectly on pitch. If I had my way, new parents would learn the songs themselves, throw out their stereos, and give their child the gift of their own sleepy voices through the midnight hours.
These days, when we go on a trip, my daughters take along tiny personal stereos and headphones. They are lost in their private worlds, and I can’t help wishing that at least here, in the car my girls would be forced to listen to their mother’s voice again, sure I’m out-of-tune songs that they might then pass down to another generation. Those sophisticated earphones have robbed them of something I think every kid should carry from childhood car trips into adulthood.
I drove away from that party humming, and all the way home the good old songs kept tumbling out. Damm it (该死), I thought, why did I ever stop singing in the car and start turning on the radio ? Why don’t I sing anymore while I’m doing the dishes? I’m going to pull those stereo wires right out of the wall when I get home. We’re going to sing grace before meals, sing carols around the piano, sing in the shower instead of switching on that waterproof radio that stole away our voices and our souls.

I can’t swim so I have a strong fear of water. Look back at my childhood, I think that three reasons might explain fear. Firstly, I am not allowed to go near the water when I was a child, as my mother had an unreasonable fear of it. Therefore, I was taught to see to the water as something danger. Secondly, my eyes became bad when I was five. If I took off my glass in the water, I couldn’t see something, and this increased my fear. What’s worse, for a child I once saw a neighbor drowned. Since then I have been more frightening.
