too, but what I feel inside.
Ever since I was young, I have loved professional wrestling. I woke up every Saturday to watch my
favorite "Superstars." As I grew older, I got a lot of flak for watching this "fake" sport. My peers would
laugh at me for following what was called a "man"s soap opera." So, I put my love for wrestling on the
shelf. Like everyone else, I wanted to be associated with the cool clique. I yearned to be invited to the
parties of the in-crowd and hang out with the popular kids. I became pretty successful. Although my
Friday evenings were busy with parties, I would still wake up early Saturdays to watch wrestling. It
wasn"t until freshman year that I realized I wasn"t being myself.
That year, I tried many new things and activities and made new friends. In my town, football was the
sport, so I decided to play football, thinking it might give me a head start in popularity. The team started
with 48 athletes. At the end, there were 14 of us left. I stuck it out not because I liked it, but because I
am not a quitter. That long season taught me a lesson: I wasn"t a football player. More importantly, it
taught me to be myself.
After that season, I went back to being a wrestling fan. I watched it religiously, no matter what insults
were thrown my way. I came across a quote: "Don"t Dream It, Be It." When I read this, my friend Dan
had the same idea I had.
"What if we build a wrestling ring?" we asked. We acquired the necessary wood and equipment for
its construction. The following weekend, we met at his house. We saw our dream in a pile in his
backyard. We worked from dawn to dusk to build our great establishment. By Sunday night, our
mission was complete. Our hard work (combined with a little creativity) had paid off. We had a real
ring. We decided to hold an "event." We practiced for hours, trying to improve every aspect of our
wrestling ability. The date was May 24th. Our show had a start time of 9: 00 p.m. To our surprise, about
one hundred family, friends and fans showed up to support us. It was the most important night of my life
and a complete success. Since that time, we have held five shows with as many as two hundred and fifty
people turning out. We continue to live this dream. We accomplished what we set out to do. We are
now well known throughout school. When I walk down the halls, I am respected by my peers. Some are
the same peers who ridiculed me for watching wrestling when I was younger. When they approach me,
they often say, "Good match, Chris." I humbly say, "Thank you," knowing I did something I believed in.
As my senior year winds down, I"ll remember all of my high school memories. But what will stick out
most is the memory that I did something I loved, despite what everyone said or thought. I accomplished
my goal ... I lived my dream.
B. the different clothes he wears and the different music he listens to
C. that he is younger than the others.
D. the different ideas he has
B. I put the clothes for wrestling on the shelf.

C. became very sociable.
D. built a wrestling ring.

C. be a professional player
D. have parties there.

"What are you doing asleep on a park bench in the middle of the day naked?" "Well, you see, officer, it all started this morning. I woke up to the sound of the big master"s alarm clock and jumped off my doggy bed. I wandered down into the kitchen and sat down to wait for breakfast." " Hang on! What do you mean by doggy bed?" "Well, I am actually a dog. Let me finish my explanation. Anyway, when the big master came downstairs I could tell that it would be a busy day, because he was rushing around. He fed me quickly and ran out of the door, not even bothering to get some breakfast for himself. This was fairly normal-he hardly ate in the morning. " I finished my breakfast soon, and then I went upstairs to wake up the little master. After that, I had to wake up the big mistress. Because I knew how much she hates it , I cautiously walked into the big room and tried to wake her up gently. Unfortunately, as soon as my nose touched her side, she jumped straight up and yelled at me to get out of her room. I did that straight away. I headed downstairs again. The little master was already downstairs. After eating breakfast, he ran out. I followed him as usual and made sure he got to school safely. On my way home, a van stopped beside me. Then I was stuck in a net and thrown into the van. I started struggling and barking. Immediately I was given a needle and calmed down. When I woke up, I was lying on a bed. Looking around, I realized I was in a science lab. Strangely, I found I wasn"t a dog anymore! I was human! I started yelling for help and an old man walked in. On seeing me, he shouted excitedly, "It worked! It worked!" Then I was given another needle. The next thing I remember is that you woke me up. So that"s why I ended up asleep here naked."
