         As young students, you have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, such as winning the Nobel
    Prize, they can also be small, such as becoming one of the best students in your class.
         Once you find a dream, what do you do with it? Do you ever try to make your dreams real?
         Andrew Matthews, an Australian writer, tells us that making your dreams real is life's biggest challenge
    (挑战). You may think you're not very good at some school subjects, or that it's impossible for you to
    become a writer. Those kinds of ideas stop you from realizing (实现) your dream.
         In fact, everyone can realize his dream. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is.
    Don't let it leave your heart. Keeping telling yourself what you want every day and then your dream will

  • 任务型阅读: 阅读下面的短文,完成表格。
         In the past, man did not have to think about the protection of his environment. There were not many
    people on earth, and natural resources (资源) seemed to be unlimited (无限的).
         Today, things are different. The world has become too crowded (拥挤的). We are using up our
    natural resources too quickly, and at the same time we are polluting our environment with dangerous
    chemicals. If we continue like this, human life on earth will not survive.
         Everyone realizes today that if too many fish are taken from the sea, there will soon be none left. Yet,
    with modern fishing methods (方法), more and more fish are caught. We know that if too many trees are
    cut down, forests will disappear and nothing will grow on the land.
         We realize that if rivers are polluted with waste products from factories, we will die. However, in most
    countries, waste products are still put into rivers or into the sea, and there are few laws to stop this.
         We know, too, that if the population (人口) of the world continues to rise at the present rate, in a few
    years, there will not be enough food.
         What can we do to solve these problems?
         If we eat more vegetables and less meat, we will easily get more food. Land that is used to grow crops
    can feed five times more people that land where animals are kept.
         The world population will not rise so quickly if people use modern methods of birth control.
         Finally, if we educate people to think about the problems, we shall have a better and cleaner living
    place in the future.
                   The importance of protecting the environment
    Problems 1. More fish being caught.
    2. More __1__ being cut down.
    3. More waste products being put into rivers.
    4. More __2__ being born.
    Causes The world is becoming too __3__.
    Modern methods make the situation worse.
    Result We human beings (人类) will not survive on the earth.
    Solutions 1. Eat more vegetables and less meat so that more food will be
        available (可以获得的) for everyone.
    2. Use modern methods of __4__ control so that the population 
        will not grow too fast.
    3. Educate people so that the __5__ will be better and cleaner.
