星火英语听力：因梦想而伟大

He replied, “I have dreamed. I have turned my mind loose to imagine what I wanted to do. Then I have gone to bed and thought about my dreams. In the night I dreamt about my dreams. And when I awoke in the morning, I saw the way to make my dreams real. While other people were saying, ‘You can't do that, it isn't possible,’ I was well on my way to achieving what I wanted.” As Woodrow Wilson, the 28th President of the US, said: “We grow great by dreams. All big men are dreamers.”

They see things in the soft haze of a spring day, or in the red fire on a long winter's evening. Some of us let these great dreams die, but others nourish and protect them; nourish them through bad days until they bring them to the sunshine and light which comes always to those who sincerely hope that their dreams will come true.

So please, don't let anyone steal your dreams, or try to tell you they are too impossible.

Sing your song, dream your dreams, hope your hope and walk on your own way.

一位非常成功的商人曾经被人问起这样一个问题：“您如何在有生之年取得了这样的成就?”

他回答道：“我拥有梦想，大胆去遐想自己想做什么，然后躺在床上思考梦想。夜里我就梦到了梦想。早晨醒来后，我发现了实现自己梦想的途径。当别人仍在说：‘你做不到，那不可能’时，我已经为实现梦想而稳步前行了。”正如美国第28任总统伍德罗·威尔逊所言：“我们因梦想而伟大，所有伟人都是梦想家。”

在春天的薄雾中或是在漫漫冬夜的熊熊炉火旁，他们想象着要做的事情。我们之中有些人会让这些伟大的梦想自生自灭，但是另一些人则会培育梦想并保护梦想，身处人生低谷也不放弃梦想，直至见到太阳与光明。而太阳与光明也总是垂青于那些真诚地希望梦想成真的人。

那么，请别让他人偷走你的梦想，也别因他人说你的梦想太遥不可及而放弃。

唱你自己的歌，做你自己的梦，企盼你自己的希望，走你自己的路吧!
