What do you want to do after graduation, Mary?
I like to go into the management. I've applied for several jobs, and already got some offers.
Good for you, Mary. You are always about the most hard-working student in our class and your efforts finally paid off.
It's so nice of you to say so, Lucas. And how about you?
I have to do some more studies to become a lawyer.
Oh, being a lawyer is not easy nowadays. And you have to overcome a lot of difficulties to achieve your ambition.
Definitely. But if our ambitions were so easy to achieve, we would soon get bored.
That's sure. But there's another story. Some people were working really hard yet not succeed.
That is why ambition needs to be realistic. You can't (?) too high.
Sounds reasonable. But according to my understanding, a careful plan in advance places the most important role in achieving success.
You're right. In addition, interest is the best teacher. Like a saying goes, 'You can lead a horse to river, but you can't force it to drink.'
I can't agree more. My father wanted me to be a surgeon when I choose my major in college. But I'm not interested in any hospital jobs.
A good doctor should be mentally physically strong.
Definitely. I don't think it's possible for me to do the surgeons' work under great pressure, so I will stick to what I'm good at.
