I have a friend named Monty Roberts who owns a horse ranch(牧场). He has let me use his1to
raise money for poor students.2 I was there he introduced me by saying,'I want to tell you why I let
Jack use my house.It all goes back to a story about a boy who was the son of a3 horse trainer. '
One day the boy was4to write a paper about what he wanted to do when he grew up. He wrote
a paper describing his5 of someday owning a horse ranch. Two days later he6 his paper
back.On the front page was a large red 'F' with a note7 ,'See me after class. '
The boy went to see the8 after class and asked,'Why did I receive an F?'The teacher said,'This
is a(n)9dream for a young boy like you. You have no coins.10a horse ranch requires a lot of
11. 'Then the teacher added,'lf you12rewrite this paper with a more realistic goal,I will13
your grade. 'The boy went home and14 about it long and hard.Finally,the boy15 the same paper, no16 at all.He said,'You can keep the F and I'll keep my17 .'
Having told the story,Monty said,'l tell you this story18 you are sitting on my 200-acre horse
ranch. I still have that school paper 19; over the fireplace. 'He added, 'The best part of the story is that
the same teacher brought 30 kids to camp out on my ranch for a week. '
When the teacher was leaving,he said, ' Look,Monty,I can tell you this now.When I was your
teacher,I was something of a dream20. Fortunately you had enough determination not to give up. '
Don't let anyone steal your dreams. Follow your heart,no matter what happens.
