“Hey，Sheba，”she said，“I've got no time for you now，but I'll take you out as soon as I get back from tennis club.”Then she noticed Sheba seemed to be coughing or choking (噎). Obviously，she could hardly breathe.Immediately.Joanne realized she would have to take her to the vet(兽医). When she got there，the vet was just about to close for the day.

Joanne made the quick trip back to her house in a couple of minutes.As she was once more entering the hallway (门厅)，the phone by the door began to ring.
“This is Dr.Sterne，”said an anxious voice.“I want you to get out of that house immediately，”said the doctor's voice.“I'm coming round right away，and the police will be there any time now.Wait outside!”
At that moment，a police car screeched (尖叫) to a stop outside the house.Two policemen got out and ran into the house.Joanne was by now completely confused and very frightened.Then the doctor arrived.
“Where’s Sheba? Is she OK?”shouted Joanne.
“She’s fine，Joanne.I took out the thing which was choking her，and she’s OK now.”
Just then，the two policemen reappeared from the house，half-carrying a white-faced man，who could hardly walk.There was blood all over him.
“My God，”said Joanne，“How did he get in there? And how did you know he was there?”

Do you have a dream, something you always see yourself doing? Perhaps you see yourself as a lawyer, businessman, or even a scientist. Whatever it is, don’t let it die.
A dream is a wonderful thing. It can give you hope for your future and encourage you to try when all odds are against you.(形势对你不利)
However, there are dream killers that want to kill your dream. They may tell you that it is impossible for you, that you are not smart enough or that it’s never been done before. However, many times the biggest dream killer is you.
Don’t let fear, doubt or lack of finances prevent you from fulfilling your dream. Talk back to these killers, “I can and fulfill(finish) my dream.” You may have to do this every day. The more you instill(逐渐灌输) within your heart that you can do it, the more safely your dream will be held within you.
It is very important to take steps towards fulfilling your dream. For me, in order to fulfill my dream of one-day owning my own magazine, I needed to go back to school and finish my college degree. For you, it may be something different. You know deep inside what the voice of your dream calls for. Don’t be afraid and just do it. Try not to let too much time go by. Time is another one of those dream killers.
Think about the words of a song by Yolanda Adams, “Keep the dream alive. Don’t let it die. If something deep inside keeps inspiring you to try, don’t stop. And never give up. Don’t ever give up on you. Sometimes, life can place a stumbling block in your way. But you have to keep the faith.”
When you dream, dream big and never give up. Your dream is just yours. Never let anyone tell you that your dream can’t happen --- it can! Nurture(培养) your dream. Keep seeing yourself do what’s never been done before. As you continue to feed your dream and protect it, not only will you keep it alive, but it will come true.
