【晨讀美文四級(jí)篇】心中有目標(biāo),風(fēng)雨不折腰(4/4)

She was heartbroken and I felt my own throat tighten as I sensed her disappointment. I asked her if she had talked to her dad about it yet. She lifted her head from her hands and told me that her father said those coaches were wrong. They just did not understand the power of a dream. He told her that if she really wanted to play for a good college, if she truly wanted a scholarship, that nothing could stop her except one thing, her own attitude. He told her again, "if the dream is big enough, the facts don't count." The next year, as she and her team went to the Northern California Championship game, she was seen by a college recruiter. She was indeed offered a scholarship, to a Division I, NCAA women's basketball team. She was going to get the college education that she had dreamed of and worked toward for all those years. It's true. If the dream is big enough, the facts don't count.
