B
Ella is an artist from the UK. Earlier this year, she decided that she would not buy anything for a year. The artist once loved buying new clothes and small things for her home. Her house was always messy(凌乱的). Her family and friends often told her, "Wow, you have a lot of things! Could you buy fewer things and clean up your messy house?" Again and again, Ella got a little impatient(不耐烦的) but started thinking about her spending habits. You know what? She found her family and friends were right. She wanted to change her ways.
Ella read about many people trying not to buy anything for a year, and she even found out that some of her friends were doing the same. She thought it was a great idea and decided to give it a try. Of course, she would pay for necessary things such as food and gifts for family and friends. But she would try not to buy new clothes or things that she didn't need. At the same time, she made lists of the things she had and decided to sell or give away 100 things by the end of the year.
Five months into her plan, Ella has found that there are fewer things in her house, and that it is tidier than before. And she is living a more comfortable and greener life. Ella is happy and is thinking about keeping to the plan next year. She believes that she will do it better.

Do you have any dreams? As for me, I have different dreams at different ages.
When I was a child, I wanted to be a magician. I wanted to bring happiness to people. As I grew older, I thought the idea was not practical(实际的) for a quiet girl like me. I liked English a lot. So I started to dream of becoming an interpreter(口译者). I knew it wouldn't be easy to be an interpreter, but I wanted to have a try and worked hard for it.
Now I have a clear learning plan. First, I spend 2 hours reading English books every day. Also, I'm in an English club to practise my speaking. Then I often watch some English shows. I think it's interesting and relaxing. As the saying goes, "Use it or lose it!" I always try to speak English in my life. Last, I am planning to study in the UK for a year.
For anyone with a dream, I would say: Anything is possible.
