問題詳情：

Two pieces of foreign news caught people’s attention. In the US, 18-year-old Michael Sessions won the mayoral（市長的）election in his town, to become the youngest mayor in the US. A similar thing happened in Britain. Martin Halstead, a high school graduate at 19, set up his own airline company.

Chinese teens admire their skills in getting such important posts. But have you ever thought that you could have the same success?

Burdened with heavy school work, many high school students in China are told to lock themselves in their studies and forget about other things.

But actually this is not wise.

Everyone is different and there is no need to follow the life paths of our ancestors（祖先）. Sessions had dreamt of being a politician since he was a child. Halstead was crazy about airplanes and took every chance to learn about them.

So why not think outside the box, as these boys did? Consider your interests when planning your own path through life. Doing this can be more exciting and makes it easier to succeed. Interest is our best teacher.

But dreaming is not enough. A good education is a stepping –stone to a successful career. It helps broaden your horizons（視野）so you understand more about yourself and therefore perform better. That’s the reason Sessions chose          while taking charge of his town.

Success still takes work. Without hard work, a dream is just like a cloud in the air that you never can reach.
