来自FreeGrit潇洒毅行的友情提醒：本篇是演讲稿，是非常好的训练听力/口语 的材料。课上，我会给大家更多地讲解一些口语用法，纠正发音，连读爆破等美音跟读练习，尤其是第5小节加粗部分，会着重讲解。
建议托福110分水平以下的学员，课后只挑选一小节进行模仿练习。比如课上讲的第五小节，或自己喜欢的一段，进行逐字逐句地模仿跟读，纠音、口语别无捷径，唯有多说。切勿贪多，最后什么都记不住，每个都练习不到位，说得也都是错的。
加粗的单词可以查下词典学习下，主要当做听力练习，以及重点段落的口语训练。
[1] I don’t know what that dream is that you have. I don’t care how disappointing it might have been as you’ve been working toward that dream, but that dream that you’re holding in your mind, that it’s possible.
长难句分析
I don’t care how disappointing it might have been as you’ve been working toward that dream。
提取出句型：
I don't care how ... it might have been as you've been doing sth.

作中心连词，连接前后两个句子，相当于when/while
I don’t care how disappointing it might have been
how = to what degree, 放在形容词之前，引导状语从句
it might have been
可能已经

That in the process of working on your dreams, you are going to incur a lot of disappointment, a lot of failure, a lot of pain. There are moments when you’re gonna doubt yourself. And say, “God, why, why is this happening to me?” “I’m just trying to take care of my children and my mother, I’m not trying to steal or rob from anybody.Why does this have to happen to me?”
