As teenagers, we all have dreams and hopes about the future．But are everybody’s dreams the same? Here are some of the findings of a survey(调查)．
What are the hopes of teenagers? We got some different answers to the question: what would you like to do after you leave college? It seems that some students would like to start work as soon as they can, because they want to help make their parents live better．Other students hope to go on studying after they finish school．Money is important, but many teenagers want to do jobs they like．
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．And many students dream of having a trip to every corner of the world one day．
The survey shows many teenagers have less realistic dreams, but they are willing to work hard to make their dreams come true．
It is clear from the survey that teenagers’ hopes are almost the same．It seems that most students hope go to colleges and find good jobs．On the other hand, students dream of different things．It is very important to dream．Hold on to your dreams, and one day they may just come true．
