The question was once asked of a highly successful businessman,“How have you done so much in your lifetime?”

He replied,“I have   41 .I have turned my mind free to imagine   42  I wanted to do.Then I have gone to bed and thought about my dreams.In the night I dreamt about my dreams.

And when I awoke in the morning,I saw the way   43  my dreams real.White   44  people were saying,‘You can’t do that,it is   45 ,’I was well on my way to achieving what I wanted,”As Woodrow Wilson,28th President of the U.S.,said:“We grow great by dreams.All big men are

  46 .”

They see things in the soft fog of a spring day,or in the red fire   47  a long winter’s evening.Some of us   48  these dreams die,but others feed,protect and look after them;keep them through bad days until they bring them to the sunshine and light,it comes   49  to the people who sincerely hope that their dreams will come true.

So please,don’t let anyone steal you dreams,  50  try to tell you they are too impossible.

“Sing your songs,dream your dreams,and hope your hope.”

I was woken up by a strange sound. I saw something moving by my window. I was terrified and ran downstairs. I found my mom in the kitchen, getting my brother ready for school.

"Mum, did you hear anything? I, uh. I thought I saw an alien."

"Are you all right? Just a dream ! "Mum answered.

Then I went back to my room. As I walked to the window, I cried, I saw a little alien, no more than three feet tall, with big and black eyes. It tried to run between my legs and escape through the window. Although I was scared, for some reason, I squeezed (挤) my legs together in time to catch it. It took out something and hurt me. I felt a terrible sense of nothingness and fainted (晕倒). Then I woke up.

At first, I could hardly move. I wasn't sure whether it was a dream or not. I pulled myself out of the bed and walked downstairs. I saw my mum in the kitchen. She was really getting my brother ready for school, wearing her pink clothes. Then I realized it was just a dream because in my dream she was wearing her work clothes.

From then on, I always dreamt about aliens and all the dreams felt so real. At that time, I really thought maybe I had some kind of relationship with aliens. About two months later, I stopped having such dreams. Later I realized that l used to have those dreams because I always read books or watched TV programs about aliens before I fell asleep!
