    Suddenly another thought went through Kate’s mind like an electric shock. An express train was due to go past about thirty minutes later. If it were not stopped, that long train, full of passengers, would fall into the stream. “Someone must go to the station and warn the station-master，” Kate thought. But who was to go? She would have to go herself. There was no one else.

    In wind and rain she started on her difficult way. Soon she was at the bridge that crossed the Des Moines River, a bridge also built of wood, just like the bridge across Honey Creek. The storm had not washed this away, but there was no footpath across it. She would have to cross it by stepping from sleeper (枕木) to sleeper. With great care she began the dangerous crossing, sometimes on her hands and knees, hardly daring to look down between the sleepers into the wild flood waters below. If she should slip, she would fall between the sleepers, into the rapidly flowing stream.

    At last — she never knew how long it had taken her — she felt solid ground under her feet. But there was no time to rest. She still had to run more than half a mile and had only a few minutes left. Unless she reached the station before the express did, many, many lives would be lost.

    She did reach the station just as the train came into sight. Fortunately the station-master was standing outside. “The bridge is down! Stop the train! Oh, please stop it!” Kate shouted breathlessly.

    The station-master went pale. He rushed into the station building and came back with a signal light. He waved the red light as the train came into the station. It was not a second too early.

    1.What did Kate decide to do?

    A. Stop the express train.

    B. Check the signal light.

    C. Meet the passengers.

    D. Visit the station-master

    2.Which of the following words best describes Kate’s journey?

    A. Fruitless.B. Boring.C. Well-planned.D. Risky.

    3.Why did the station-master turn pale?

    A. He suddenly fell ill.

    B. He realized the danger.

    C- He discovered his mistake.

    D. He became over-excited.

    What is a big dream? 1. or, is a big dream something that provides only entertainment? Children dream big dreams, but there are three barriers(障碍) to realizing dreams. They often kill them before they ever have a chance to grow.

    The Self

    Immediately following the birth of a big dream, a negative self-talk takes over and gives all the reasons why it can’t happen. This inside voice is the ego (自我). It is there for protecting and should be listened to. Sometimes it is right, but more often it is wrong. 2.

    That’s why only a handful of people make their dream come true.

    3.

    Family and friends are a lot like the ego. They want to protect those they love, so they will often list all the reasons why the big dreams won’t come true. Sometimes, family and friends destroy dreams of those they love most, out of their own fear of being left behind.

    The World

    If one gets past the first two barriers, one has to face the world. 4. In the past, big dreamers were locked up and sometimes even killed when they were shown to the world. Fortunately, in most of the world today, big dreamers just get laughed at.

    The way to realize a big dream is with confidence and action. When children have confidence and then take action, they will be ready to accept any failure. The truth is that every great dreamer whose dreams have never seen the light of success knows failure well. 5.

    A. How Big Dreams Die

    B. Family and Friends

    C. They simply fail until they succeed.

    D. Does a big dream show one’s future?

    E. Most people are influenced by the inside voice.

    F. It is the last and the most terrible barrier.

    G. And their big dream is to be a rock star or a famous artist.

    One day a mime(哑剧演员) is visiting the zoo and tries to earn some money as a street performer. As soon as he starts to draw a crowd, a zookeeper pulls him into his office.
