13.We all dream about things that we would like to do 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 in it.
What are the hopes of teenagers?
We received several different answers to the question:what would you like to do after finishing your education?It seems some students would like to start work as soon as possible,so that they can help provide better lives for their parents.Other students hope to continue studying after finishing school and to go to university.Although money is important,many teenagers said they want to do jobs they enjoy.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 than others.For example,many students said they would like to be volunteers if Beijing could hold the World Cup,maybe working as translators or tour guides.And quite a few said they dream of going to the moon 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 dream of becoming famous,perhaps famous sports people or singers.Some said they'd like to go on exciting trips; one students said she'd love to sail across the Pacific Ocean.And then there are dreams that are impossible; three students said they'd like to be able to fly!
Conclusion It was 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 come true.
