(10分) Now I'm in my second year at art school in Japan and I often dream about my future. I have big plans and I'd like to tell you a little about them.
My first plan is about my holiday. I am going to visit my brother, who is working in Malaysia. My parents and I are going to spend Thanksgiving with him. I am very excited about it.
When I come back, I need to make a final decision about which course I am going to study next year. I am still not sure—I'm think of doing either clothes design (设计) or garden design. It is difficult because I'm interested in both clothes and gardens. If I choose gardening, I'd like to work with my friend, Jasper. He is talented in gardens and we worked together before. In fact, it was great fun and we got on with each other very well.
In five or ten years' time I would like to have my own business (生意) and work for myself like my father. He has his own building business. I'll probably take a business course after I finish art school.
Besides, I hope to marry and have children before I'm 30, but I can't plan when I'll meet the right person and I don't have a boyfriend now.
In my dreams I see myself at 40 running a successful gardening company. I'll design beautiful gardens for beautiful people. I'll have a beautiful house with a swimming pool, two beautiful children, and of course a husband who is as successful as I am. Who knows, it could even be Jasper.

(10分) 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.
Do you ever try to make your dream real
Andrew Matthews, an Australian writer, tells us that making your dreams real is life's biggest challenge. You may think you're not very good at some school subjects, or that it's impossible for you to become a writer.
In fact, everyone can realize his dream. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is. Keep telling yourself what you want every day and then your dream will come true faster. You should know that a big dream is, in fact, made up of many small dreams.
You must also never give up your dream. There will be difficulties on the road to your dream. You need to decide what is the most important. Studying instead of watching TV will help you to get better exam results, while saving five yuan instead of buying an ice-cream means you can buy a new book.
But little by little, your dream will come true in the end.

A.Don't let it leave your heart.
B.Those kinds of ideas stop you from realizing your dream.
C.As you get closer to your dream, it may change a little.

solve, how, clear, help, easy, make, teach, doubt, but, student
Who invented homework and why was it invented A lot of research has been done but actually there is no answer to the question.
No matter who it was, the inventor must have been a very smart person. No he understood our brain very well. When we think over a problem, our mind makes up some very different ways the problem. The more we think on the problem, the better we understand the topic, and the better our abilities get in that subject.
why not do that in school Why homework
Because no one is there to help you solve those problems. If this is being done in school, other may help you with your problems, and the thinking part of the problems wouldn't exist (存在).
The teacher can teach the topic, and discuss some problems at school. But, to assess (评估) how much you have understood Homework helps. How well you do on your homework it clear.
It really is a win-win situation. If you have understood what was , the homework is a piece of cake, and you should finish it . You now have time for whatever other activities you want to do. But if you have not understood something, the homework you realize this, and you can take steps towards improving that. Or, you might even invent a new way, who knows
