When the Americans are at home， they usually enjoy spending their free time on all kinds of DIYs (do it yourself).Maybe this is a little different from our Chinese people. When we Chinese are at home， we would like to enjoy ourselves by watching TV or receiving our friends. But American people like spending their time in doing some kind of work on their own. They believe it to be helpful and interesting.

In their eyes， DIYs will not only help them to develop their brains but also save them much time. For a very little job， they will need to think twice before carrying it out well. This will certainly do much good to their brains and make them brighter and brighter.

Some Americans live far away from the service centre（服務中心）. When something goes wrong， they will have to wait for a long time before finding the right service. In these cases， they would also love to manage by themselves. So in American， DIYs are very popular. There are a lot of newspapers on them， even books and websites

As students， you may have many dreams. They can be very big like becoming Superman， or they can be small. You may just want to become one of the ten best students in your class.

If you find a dream， what do you do with it? Do you ever try to make your dream come true?

Follow Your Heart by Australian writer Andrew Matthews tells us that making our dreams come true is life’s biggest challenge.

“You may think you’re not very good at some school subjects， or that it is impossible (不可能) for you to become a star. These ideas stop you from getting your dream，” the book says.

In fact， everyone can make his dream come true. The first important thing you must do is to remember what your dream is.

Don’t let it leave your heart (心). Keep telling yourself what you want. Do this step by step (一步一步地) and your dream will come true faster. A big dream is， in fact， many small dreams.

Never give up (放棄) your dream. There will be difficulties (困難) on the road. But the biggest problem comes from yourself. You need to decide what is the most important. Studying instead of (代替) watching TV will bring you better exam points. Saving five yuan instead of buying an ice cream means you can buy a new book. When you get closer to your dream， it may change a little. Then you will be able to learn more skills and find new interests.
