选择恰当句子填入文中空白处
As young students, you have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, such as winning the Noble Prize; they can also be small, such as becoming one of the best students in your class.     
Once you find a dream, what do you do with it?   【小题1】  
Andrew Matthews, an Australian writer, tells us that making your dreams real is life’s biggest challenge. You may think you’re not very good at some school subjects, or that it’s impossible for you to become a writer. Those kinds of ideas stop you from realizing your dreams.
  【小题2】  The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is. Don’t let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want every day and then your dream will come true faster. You should know that a big dream is, in fact, made up of many small dreams.
  【小题3】  There will be difficulties on the road to your dream. But the biggest difficulty comes from yourself.   【小题4】  Studying instead of watching TV will help you get better exam results, while saving five yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book.
As you get closer to your dream, it may change a little. This is good as you have the chance to learn something more useful and find new hobbies.

【小题5】How do you make your dream come true faster?
A. Remember what your dream is.
B. Don’t let your dream leave your heart.
