勾勒职业画卷,谱写未来篇章

Recently, we asked Your Hot Job users to share something about their future careers. We heard from so many of them. Here are just a few of our favorite responses. 
My future career needs to involve books — I love reading so much! It also needs to include rescuing animals from habitat destruction (破坏), climate change, and deforestation. —Charlotte, 9
My future career needs to include helping people, communicating with others, and writing. I want to be the CEO of a company I start, just like my mom. —Aria, 13
My future career needs to include making things, being creative, and art. I used to want to be a scientist, but now I want to be an author and illustrator. —Elliot, 6
When I was 5, I wanted to be a firefighter, because I thought fires were cool. Now I love designing and building. I want to be an engineer. —Teddy, 13
