We all dream about things that we would like to do and things 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，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(現(xiàn)實(shí)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 they’d like to go on exciting trips; one student 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. Besides，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.

The Chinese tradition of giving gifts of money in red envelopes at Lunar New Year has turned into big business for Web giants Alibaba and Tencent, which now both offer electronic "hong bao".

At the end of each lunar year, it is common in China to give children hong bao -- some money in envelopes that are red, the colour of success. But now the old also take part in this activity.

It is now possible to exchange "red envelopes" with smart phone, which is popular in China and has caused a battle(戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)) for the lucrative market between the two companies providing the service, Tencent and Alibaba.

"You don't have to pay the same cost or wait as long as you would for a traditional bank transfer(轉(zhuǎn)賬). It's more convenient, simple and fun," Wang Le, a 28-year-old Beijinger, told AFP. " With electronic red envelopes, you're not limited by your identity（身份） or the time of year. It's a new, fresh way of playing the game."

The idea was introduced in 2014 by WeChat, a mobile messaging system with over 400 million users and run by Tencent, China's largest Internet service system. It was successful at once.

This year, Alipay Wallet（阿里支付寶）, the payment system run by Alibaba, is ready to take on the competition. It is allowing its 190 million users to send digital gifts, especially on the Twitter-like Sina Weibo.

For the past few weeks a digital battle has been terrible, with Tencent banning （禁止）Alipay from sending red envelopes on WeChat, saying they were at a risk. Recently, WeChat also blocked(封鎖) Alibaba's music app Xiami.

To attract the public's attention, the two companies have launched lotteries through which they award red envelopes to users in an online game.

It's easy to send and receive hong bao or take part in the lotteries: you simply need to register （登記）your bank details.

According to market research group iResearch, Alipay controls 82.6 percent of the Chinese mobile phone payment market, compared to 10 percent for Tencent's Tenpay.

Exam time is the most stressful period of the year. You have worked all school term on your classes and now it’s the time to prove what you have learned. With so much at stake (處于成敗關(guān)頭), it is easy to get stressed about your exams. However, with the right amount of hard work and focus you can pass your tests easily.

When I was in school, I used to get very stressed over my exams. So did my friends. Some people stopped eating and others ate too much! Some gave up and others burned themselves out! The most important thing to remember when studying is not to feel frightened! Take the middle path -- stay calm, eat healthy and get a rest. Pushing yourself too hard is just as dangerous as not studying enough. A tired, overworked brain is just as useless as a lazy, empty one!

So, what should you do ?Arrange a time each day for study and a time for relaxation .You may have less time to relax than usual, but you still need to let your brain rest for a few moments. Get plenty of sleep .If you are tired, information will not stick in our memory. Finally eat healthy foods that fuel （給……加油）your body and mind.

It is bad to think too much about your exams. Some students may think that the rest of their life depends on them .That’s not true. Instead, just view the exams as another difficulty you will overcome. You have overcome all kinds of difficulties in you life so far. With the right amount of work and focus, you will pass your exams with flying colours! High school is right around the corner!

Some students, parents and teachers in Shanghai were surveyed last month. According to the result of the survey, the generation gap (代溝) between students and parents as well as teachers is becoming wider. Here is what they said.

Voice of the students:

“Our parents hold too high expectations（期待）which put us under lots of pressure（壓力. They care too much about our lives and studies,” one student said.

“It’s impolite that some students’ parents read their children’s diaries without permission!”one student said angrily.

“Some of our teachers are so serious that we can’t make friends with them at all,” another student said sadly.

Voice of the parents:

One mother said, “After school, my daughter usually locks herself into her room and spends lots of time talking with others on the phone. And I can’t stand her clothes and hairstyle!”

“I thought my son was doing very well in his studies. I didn’t realize I was being cheated (欺騙)by him until I got a call from his teacher,” said a father.

Voice of the teachers:

An English teacher said, “Today, the role of the teacher is to put knowledge into students’ brain. The power teachers have kept students away from them.”

“Some parents pay too much attention to their children’s grades. They never create a lively and colorful environment at home,” another teacher said.

“In the past, teachers and students often played games together or talked with each other. Today, only studies and grades are talked about,” said a teacher.

Voice of scientists:

Scientists say that a school should be a place where students can learn not only knowledge, but also how to face failure bravely enough.
