Monty Robert’s father was a horse trainer. As a child, Monty often went from one farm to 1 with his father. Sometimes they didn’t have enough money to 2 food, but Monty still kept hoping to own a 3 farm.
When he was in school, his teacher asked him to write a paper 4 what he wanted to be and do when he grew up. He wrote a seven-page paper 5 his dream of having a horse farm one day. He 6 drew a picture of a horse farm in the paper.
The next day he handed 7 in to his teacher. Two days later, he got his paper back. On the front page was a large red “F” with some words “See me after class.” 8 the boy did and asked his teacher, “Why did I get an F?” The teacher said, “This dream will not 9 for a young boy like you. 10 a horse farm needs a lot of money. You have to buy the land. You have to pay for a lot of things. There is no way you could ever do it.” Then the teacher added, “If you write this paper again with a 11 dream, I will give you a good grade.”
After school he thought about it 12 . At last, he decided to hand in the same paper, making 13 changes at all. He wrote, “You can keep the F and I’ll keep my 14 .”
Many years later, Monty had his own 200 acres horse farm. His dream came true.
