FIVE WAYS TO KILL YOUR DREAMS
I dedicated the past two years to understanding how people achieve their dreams. When we think about the dreams we have, and the footprint we want to leave in the universe, it is striking to see how big of an overlap there is between the dreams that we have and projects that never happen. So I'm here to talk to you today about five ways how not to follow your dreams.
1.______
You know the story, right? The tech guy built a mobile app and sold it very fast for a lot of money. You know, the story may seem real, but I bet it's incomplete. If you go investigate further, the guy has done 30 apps before and he has done a master's on the topic, a Ph.D. He has been working on the topic for 20 years. This is really interesting. I myself have a story in Brazil that people think is an overnight success. I come from a humble family, and two weeks before the deadline to apply to MIT, I started the application process. And, voila! I got in. People may think it's an overnight success, but that only worked because for the 17 years prior to that, I took life and education seriously. Your overnight success story is always a result of everything you've done in your life through that moment.
2.____
Constantly, people want to help out, right? All sorts of people: your family, your friends, your business partners, they all have opinions on which path you should take: "And let me tell you, go through this pipe." But whenever you go inside, there are other ways you have to pick as well. And you need to make those decisions yourself. No one else has the perfect answers for your life. And you need to keep picking those decisions, right? The pipes are infinite and you're going to bump your head, and it's a part of the process.
3.______
So when your life is going great, you have put together a great team, and you have growing revenue, and everything is set — time to settle. When I launched my first book, I worked really, really hard to distribute it everywhere in Brazil. With that, over three million people downloaded it, over 50,000 people bought physical copies. When I wrote a sequel, some impact was guaranteed. Even if I did little, sales would be okay. But okay is never okay. When you're growing towards a peak, you need to work harder than ever and find yourself another peak. Maybe if I did little, a couple hundred thousand people would read it, and that's great already. But if I work harder than ever, I can bring this number up to millions. That's why I decided, with my new book, to go to every single state of Brazil. And I can already see a higher peak. There's no time to settle down.
4._____
I constantly see people saying, "Yes, I had this great idea, but no investor had the vision to invest." "Oh, I created this great product, but the market is so bad, the sales didn't go well." Or, "I can't find good talent; my team is so below expectations." If you have dreams, it's your responsibility to make them happen. Yes, it may be hard to find talent. Yes, the market may be bad. But if no one invested in your idea, if no one bought your product, for sure, there is something there that is your fault. Definitely. You need to get your dreams and make them happen. And no one achieved their goals alone. But if you didn't make them happen, it's your fault and no one else's. Be responsible for your dreams.
5.______
Once I saw an ad, and it was a lot of friends, they were going up a mountain, it was a very high mountain, and it was a lot of work. You could see that they were sweating and this was tough. And they were going up, and they finally made it to the peak. Of course, they decided to celebrate, right? I'm going to celebrate, so, "Yes! We made it, we're at the top!" Two seconds later, one looks at the other and says, "Okay, let's go down." Life is never about the goals themselves. Life is about the journey. Yes, you should enjoy the goals themselves, but people think that you have dreams, and whenever you get to reaching one of those dreams, it's a magical place where happiness will be all around. But achieving a dream is a momentary sensation, and your life is not. The only way to really achieve all of your dreams is to fully enjoy every step of your journey. That's the best way.

Who is your role model? Normally the answer to this question would be anyone around you who you find truly inspiring. It could also be someone like J. K. Rowling or Martin Luther King. Jr. , who have proven to be strong and intelligent people.
However, in today’s world, stars are regarded as role models along with the heroes listed above, despite their intentions or actions. Teens attempt to imitate their actions for two major reasons. Firstly, to be fashionable and accepted by popular culture, and secondly because stars’ actions are so well documented by the media that it seems to grab our attention and turns it to following stars’ lives. Much of the reports about stars is shocking and exhibits bad morals or lifestyles that aren’t right for teenagers. In addition, almost everything stars do is described beyond truth to make a shocking story by taking it to the next level.
However, teens must take responsibility for their actions. We can’t always blame stars for influencing us. Only you have control over yourself and only you choose to do something. Our bodies and actions are in the hands of no one else.
Now, whoever said stars are role models? Whether they choose to be or not, stars set examples as soon as they step into the spotlight. With reporters following and recording every move they make, it is impossible not to be watched and then be imitated. These people influence teens whether or not they want to. Why should someone who doesn’t want to be setting an example set one? So，should we look up to them or to people who are true and good role models? It’s our responsibility as teens to know right from wrong, and it’s time for us to take responsibility for our actions. In doing so，we will lean toward those inspiring people that want to be setting an example, and follow in their steps to be like them.
1. According to the first paragraph, _______ can usually be role models.
A. political leaders
B. wealthy writers
C. people inspiring others
D. people with great intelligence
2.What are the major reasons for the teens to imitate stars?
A. Interest in stars’ life and expectation of getting rich.
B. Motivation for being fashionable and inspiration from popular examples.
C. Intentions to gain acceptance and encouragement from stars’ lifestyle.
D. Desires to be stylish and great influence from the mass media.
3. The author writes the passage mainly to advise the teenagers to _______.
A. have a control over their own bodies and actions
B. be responsible for their own choices and behaviors
C. follow fashionable stars’ steps to be more popular
D. choose right role models according to different reports
4.It can be inferred from the passage that _______.
A. stars have the responsibility for teenagers’ actions
B. not all famous stars choose to influence teenagers
C. teenagers choose those inspiring people as their role models

It-s the universal cry of parents. "Get a job! " Soliman's mother told Soliman on the second day of his college breaks.
After years of delivering furniture for his mother'-s store, he knew many people had things they wanted to get rid of. If he borrowed his mom's truck, he could make a little money by carrying away their garbage.
One night, Soliman came up with a name for his new business - College Hunks Hauling Junk. He advertised the next day, and within hours, his phone rang. He asked his friend Friedman to help. They made $ 220 in three hours by cleaning out a woman-s garage. Soliman and Friedman earned $ 10,000 that summer. But the two weren't readyto become full- time garbage mcn after graduation. "We were trained to finish college and get a good job," says Soliman, who first worked at a research firm. Friedman became an economic analyst.
After working for the firm and the company for a while, both of them changed their minds. They quit their jobs and restarted their business, but had trouble finding a bank willing to lend them money. "Within months," says Friedman, "we were pretty upset. "
At last, one bank risked lending them $ 50,000. At first, they lost money. One customer asked them to deal with a dozen garbage cans filled with construction garbage. They measured the job by volume instead of by weight and charged just $ 130. "The cans were so heavy that it took us two and a half hours," says Soliman, "And it cost us more than $ 250 to carry the load. "
However, the tough experience taught them a lesson. They reduced the cost of unloading by recycling metals and electronics. Just four years later, they ran a nationwide company that earned $ 3 million in 2014. " I figured if Nick and I failed, we'd learn more from failing than from not trying at all," says Soliman.
1.What does Soliman find when helping to deliver furniture?
A. Some parents want their kids to work at college breaks.
B. Many families have things they don't want to keep.
C. His mom's truck works well in carrying heavy furniture.
D. It's hard to make money by carrying away the garbage.
2.What makes Soliman think of starting his new business?
A. His working experience in his mother's store.
B. His strong desire to make use of the garbage.
C. His hatred for people's throwing away things.
D. His much available time at college breaks.
3.How did Soliman and Friedman cut the cost of the company?
A. By filling the cans with more garbage.
B. By measuring the job by volume.
C. By reducing the working hours.
D. By recycling something useful.
4.Which of the following can be learned from the passage?
A. Easier said than done.
B. Nothing succeeds like success.
C. Two heads are better than one.
D. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.

Now that newsrooms are becoming less popular in the US，young people have begun to tell their own stories．
GlobalGirl Media，a nonprofit organization that teaches teenage girls digital storytelling skills，was started by award-winning filmmakers Amie Williams and Meena Nanji in Los Angeles in 2010．
