12.We all dream about things that we would like to do and things we hope to achieve in the future.But are everybody's dreams the same?Here are some of the findings of a survey about hopes and dreams,in which thousands of students across China took part.What are the hopes of teenagers?We received several different answers to the question:what would you like to do after you finish your education?It seems some students would like to start work as soon as they can,so that they can help offer their parents better lives.Other students hope to go on studying after they finish school and to go to university.Although money is important,many teenagers want to do jobs they like.According to the survey,the most popular choice of job is computer programming.
What are the dreams of teenagers?Teenagers have all kinds of dreams.Some are more realistic (现实的) than others.For example,many students would like to be volunteers if Beijing could hold the World Cup,maybe working as translators or tour guides.And many students dream of having a trip to every corner of the world one day.
According to the survey,less realistic dreams are also common,but many students reported that they were willing to work hard to achieve their dreams.Quite a few dreamed of becoming famous,perhaps famous sports people or singers.Some students would like to go on exciting trips.One student would love to sail across the Pacific Ocean.And then there are dreams that there are no possibility for students to achieve.Three students would like to be able to fly.
It is clear from the survey that teenagers have similar hopes.It seems that most students hope to have a good education and find a good job.On the other hand,students dream of very different things:good things,and even crazy things.It is very important to dream,so hold on your dreams,one day they may just be realized.

With only one look,you can see lots of differences.For example,classes in American schools are smaller than yours.Most classes have no more than 30students.Most students in the US don't wear school uniforms.And they don't have group exercise each day as the way you do.If they say your exercises,they would think you were very strange.
In fact,Chinese students and American students have very different lives.
What's the first thing you think about when you wake up in the morning?It's probably your lessons at school.Chinese students are very hard-working,always under lots of stress from their parents and teachers.Chinese students study hard at night,and sometimes even on the weekend because their exams are very important.
For Chinese students,school is life,but not for American students.They don't have to worry about passing exams all the time,so they can spend time doing things they enjoy.Kids do different things for fun,like playing sports,making music or surfing the Web.
Many American teachers think that just studying hard isn't enough to make a good student.They encourage students to become well rounded by trying lots of different things.
