But are everybodys dreams the same? Here are some of the findings of a survey about hopes and dreams，and 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(现实的) 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 theyd like to go on exciting trips; one student said shed love to sail across the Pacific Ocean. And then there are dreams that are impossible; three students said theyd like to be able to fly!ConclusionIt was clear from the survey that teenagers have similar hopes.
