In the United States there are many kids who want to be millionaires. They dream of being a famous sports star，a pop singer，or the President！

When I was a young boy，I dreamed of being rich，too. I wanted a red race car called a Lamborghini. I wanted a big house with a big swimming pool. During the summers，I dreamed of going to my vacation home with a view of the ocean，I didn’t know what I was going to do to get rich. But，I knew I was going to be a millionaire.

Although some of my dream as a young boy were not realistic，I still dream today. I don’t dream of being a baseball player or the President of the US，I dream of more attainable（可实现的）dreams like getting a doctor’s degree，or starting my own business to become a millionaire.

There is no “formula（准则）”to guarantee（确保）that you will be a millionaire. Beside，you don’t have to become a millionaire to live a happy life！Millionaires often say that their lives change little even when they get rich. They continue to live their lives the same as before. What’s more，they learn as much knowledge as they can at school！ I think the best piece of advice for boys and girls is to work hard at school，learn the necessary skill，never give up on your dreams，and try your best. And if，at first，you don’t succeed ，try again. I wish you good luck and keep dreaming！ 19.In American，many young boys dream to _____.

A. be a doctor B.be a rich man C.have a race car D.be a baseball player 20.“Lamborghini”is a _____ name.

B. a young person shouldn’t have unrealistic dreams C. a person should never give up his or her dreams D.everyone’s dream must be attainable（可实现的）
