On Dreams

Dreams can be big or small. Our country’s dream is the revitalization
of our motherland and the realization of the four modernizations i.e.
the modernizations of industry, agriculture, science and technology and
national defense. This is a huge dream. It needs all the Chinese to make
great efforts in bringing the dream into reality. We have been longing
for its realization for a long time. Actually it will take a dozen of years for
us to get the great dream realized.
As for the individuals, we all have different dreams. Some want to be
scientists and some want to be teachers or doctors in the future. As to me,
I want to be a writer when I graduate from the university. Writing can
become a part of my life. Through writing, I can exchange ideas with
others, bringing to light the bright and dark sides of our society.
Through reading the articles to be written by me, people can cultivate
their temperaments and raise their social morality. To achieve my dream I
will study hard, reading more books and broadening my views. As the
saying goes, “Where there is a will, there is a way”. As long as I firmly keep
my dream in mind, I will have it realized in the future.

　　朋友们!
你们好!
每个人都有自己的梦想，但大多数人都觉得梦想可想而不可及，于是将它深深地埋在心底，连破土的机会都不给它，这样，梦想怎么会开出绚丽芬芳的花儿呢？

众所周知，在刘翔之前，谁会想到一个黄种人有一天会登上110米栏的冠军领奖台呢？2004年8月27日雅典奥运会男子110米栏决赛上，刘翔以12秒91，平了由英国选手科林·杰克逊创造的纪录夺得了金牌，创造了中国人在短道项目上的奇迹和神话！此次赛后他又开始了废寝忘食的训练。功夫不负有心人，2006年在国际田联超级大奖赛洛桑站男子110米栏的决赛中，刘翔以12秒88的成绩夺得金牌，并打破了沉睡13年之久的男子110米栏世界纪录！当初幼小的花芽，经过汗水的浸泡已经散发出满世界的芬芳了！

我一直很喜欢冰心奶奶的一首小诗《成功的花》：“成功的花/人们只惊羡她现时的明艳/然而当初她的芽儿/浸透了奋斗的泪泉/洒遍了牺牲的血雨。”成功的花需要汗水、泪水甚至血水的滋润啊。

赛场上如此，生活中又何尝不是如此呢？山不在高，有仙则名；水不在深，有龙则灵；人不在贫贱， 有梦就能赢。每一个平凡的人都有自己远大的梦想，只要你朝着自己的梦想而努力，就能实现自己的梦想。
朋友们，你们知道吗？我有一千零一个梦想哟！

我想成为孙悟空,一变，变成大款，坐着奔驰、宝马去看壮观的祖国山河。二变，开一家公司，公司就像“海尔集团”那么大，那么豪华。三变，把钱捐给灾区小朋友、老奶奶、老爷爷们，使他们永远过上幸福 、快乐的生活。四变，把我们的祖国变得更强大，不受别人的欺悔。五变，我们要和外星人交往，和他们交上最好的朋友。六变，让每一位小朋友都有超能力的智慧。七变，让我们的国家富裕起来。八变，让地球上的每一个人都非常聪明、讲文明、懂礼貌、守纪律。九变……
朋友们，你们记着“我的梦想不是梦，让我们一起努力吧！”
