Question

Sarah Winfrey	I’d love to work for myself. I want to spend my mornings making cards. Then I’m going to write stories for newspapers in the afternoon. How am I going to do that? I’m learning how to make cards and taking some writing lessons.
Justin Ryan	At first I planned to be an actor because I wanted to have a lot of money. Then I’d like to be a writer. But soon I found it was a boring job. And now…I really don’t know what my dream job is.
Will Chen	I loved watching Growing Pains when I was a small kid. I always thought Dr Seaver had the best job in the world. He could give his family a comfortable life. And he could help a lot of people just by talking to them. So to be a psychologist(心理学家)like him is my dream. I’m going to try to do something for others.
Beth Chapman	I want to be a journalist. I want to take nice photos and write magazine articles about my great experiences. In fact, my dream is my hobby now, though no one pays me for it. I’m sure that one day everything will change. It’s important to do what I like.
Philip Brewer	My first dream job was a computer programmer. In college, I spent every free minute in the computer room. But soon I found it was difficult for me. And my next dream job was to be a writer. I sold my first story in 1979 and I’ve never really stopped writing.
