As teenagers, you have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, such as winning the Nobel Prize, or they can be small. You may just want to become one of the ten best students in your class. Once (一旦) you find your dream, what do you do for it? Did you ever try to make your dream come true?
Andrew Matthews, a famous writer, tells us that realizing our dreams is our life’s biggest challenge. You may think you’re not very good at some school subjects, or that it is impossible for you to become a writer. These kinds of thoughts (想法) stop you from realizing your dream. In fact, everyone can make their dreams come true. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is. And follow your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want. Do this step by step and your dream will come true faster because a big dream is, in fact, many small dreams. You must also never give up your dream. There will be difficulties on the road to your dream.
But the biggest difficulty comes from yourself. You need to decide what is the most important. Studying instead of (代替) watching TV will bring you better exam results, while saving five yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book.
If you don’t have dream, you won’t make up your mind to learn something more useful and find new hobbies.

【推荐3】A kind of new houses in California is selling quite fast. In a short time, people buy 82 ones and they need 1000 more. And the factories will build them soon—for they are able to build one in less than 24 hours.
Why can they do it so fast? Because 3D printing (打印) helps to make it. 3D printing not only builds a house with less time, but also costs less and is more environmentally (环境上) friendly. And there are different styles of 3D printed houses for people to choose.
3D printing is developing (发展) very fast. But there are some problems with 3D printed houses. First, the house “printed” out may not be strong enough. Second, while building houses layer by layer (逐层地), there may be some differences between layers. Some layers may be a little thinner or thicker than others. Finally, there are now fewer types of 3D printing materials (材料) for us to use.
However, the future of 3D printed houses is promising. In India, there are not enough houses. The country wants to use 3D printing to solve the problem. If successful, buildings by 3D printing may go popular. We can also use it to build offices and other buildings. NASA wants to use 3D printing to build something on Mars and the Moon.
