Dear Mike,
I’m very glad to receive the letter you sent me. I have been thinking the question you asked me. From my point of view, you can come to China after finished your studies.
For the one reason, China’s development offers a number of job opportunity for the young. What’s more, what you are studying is bad needed in China nowadays. In fact, many big companies in our city are hoping to hire people like me.
For another reason, China is a country with such a different culture as many foreigners enjoy living and working here. Why not come but join them? If you came here, I will do how I can to help you.
3 . Rich and Famous
Twenty years ago the most common ambition of American children was to be a teacher, followed by working in banking and finance, and then medicine. But today’s situation is quite different.
According to experts, young people desire these jobs largely because of the wealth and the fame.
In spite of these disadvantages, there is greater ambition than ever among young people to achieve that status. They are not satisfied just making a living—they want to be rich and famous. Globally, more and more TV shows provide talent competitions where winners can achieve their goals in just a few weeks or months.
While many people argue that there is nothing wrong with having such ambitions, others feel that this trend will finally lead to dissatisfaction as more and more people are unable to reach their goals.

7 . Bob was born in Cambridge. When he was in elementary school, he asked his mother to take him to parks in their community so he could collect empty soda cans to recycle. His mother agreed, as long as he saved part of the money he earned for college.
Bob’s mother remembers Bob as the most determined of her seven kids. Bob’s hard work paid off. On Friday, he will become the first person in his family, originally from El Salvador, to graduate from college. And he’s graduating with university honors.
For his honors thesis(毕业论文)he researched unmanned solar-powered(太阳能)airplanes, which BYU students have been building and testing for about 10 years. Bob’s study helps discover the best way to fly a solar-powered airplane so that it uses the least amount of power. The goal is to design and build an airplane that flies uncertainly. Bob’s thesis helps lay the basis for this work.
“My parents were always hard-working,” Bob said. “They often tell us hard work leads to success.” Bob’s father taught him to read at the age of 3, and his mother is now a student at Utah Valley University in a way to becoming a dentist.
Bob recognized he overcame some obstacles(障碍)to get where he is. For starters, English is his second language. He also faced stereotypes(模式化的形象). Although Bob never doubted that he would be a college graduate, other people believed he wouldn’t because he didn’t come from a family of high income. There were other obstacles as well, but Bob viewed them all as opportunities.
Bob’s mother says she feels very happy and proud that her son is about to graduate with honors, and remembers the effort he’s made to get there. “He has worked very hard. He started something, and now he has finished it,” Cathy says. “I have always told him, ‘If this is your dream, then you can get it! Keep working hard and you can get it!’”

10 . 26-year-old Anna Cherdantseva, from the city of Ufa in Russia, is a full-time employee of a furniture company, spending up to 10 hours every day trying out new sofas for comfort and safety.
Last month, Russian furniture giant M25 Group announced that it was taking application for a new position. Although all new products are tested in a specialized laboratory, management decided that in order to better meet the needs of consumers it needed some feedback(反馈) on real-life use of its sofas. In just a few days, M25 received over 5,000 job applications.
"We selected candidates in several stages," M25 Group spokesperson Anastasia Russkih said. "Initially we checked their CVs, and then we let them tell us why they wanted the job."

Anna Cherdantseva is at present on a three-month probation(试用期) at M25, but the company claims that as long as she proves to be up to the task, they plan on offering her a permanent position. The young woman will receive a monthly salary of 56,000 rubles($l,000) for the first three months. It's not so bad for sitting on the job.
