It's time to graduate from junior high school. Some of you may have problems making decisions for your future. My suggestion is that you can listen to some stories about how different people choose their careers, and you may find some of them useful to you. Here is a story about Hunter Adams.
When Hunter Adams was a teenager, he was very unhappy, and he even spent two years in a special hospital for people with mental(精神的) health problems.
When he left hospital, Adams decided to become a doctor. So he went to a medical school in Virginia, the U.S. But when he was there, he did things in a different way. For example, he didn't like the doctors' white coats. He preferred to wear shirts with flowers on them when he visited his patients, and he tried to make them laugh. The doctors at the medical school didn't like Adams very much because he was too different.
But Adams believed that people in hospital needed more than medicine. He saw unhappy and lonely people, and he tried to help them as patients, but as people, too. He spent a lot of time with children in the hospital, and often put a special red nose on his face to look like a clown and to make the children laugh.
When he finished medical school and became a doctor, Adams opened his own hospital called “the Gesundheit Institute”, together with some other doctors. They wanted it to be a place in a different way of working with sick people.
Hunter Adams became famous during the 1980s, and in 1998, Universal Pictures made a film about his life. It was very successful. In the film Patch Adams, Robin Williams played Adams. Williams said, “Hunter is a really warm person, who believes that patients need a doctor who's a friend. I enjoyed playing him.”

B.He liked to wear shirts with flowers on them when he visited his patients.
C.He treated his patients as children in every way possible.

Songs about growing up
Thousands of songs about growing up are available(可得到的). They can always get a response(反应) from teenagers in some ways. While listening to the songs, old or new, teenagers can always feel themselves or understand themselves.
a. Songs about being a teenager
Growing up isn't always easy. Teens always want to be independent, but parents have a hard time letting go. There can be moments of worry, uncertainty and even anger. Some songs speak of those feelings and can help them get through this period.
b. Songs about dreams
As teenagers grow, they're likely to look forward to the day when they'll be able to work hard to achieve their dreams. The Westlife's song I have a dream is well known. The key lyrics(歌词) are “I have a dream, a song to sing. To help me cope(处理) with anything… You can take the future even if you fail.” This song has encouraged so many teenagers to fight for their dreams.
c. Graduation songs
Graduation songs usually speak of the joy of this season of their life. These songs are perfect for graduation parties and get-togethers with friends. As they graduate, they can sing “Today is where your book begins, the rest is still unwritten…”.
When teenagers grow up, they find childhood is a bittersweet(苦乐参半的) time. They've looked forward to the day for so many years and finally it is here. However, they may not be sure about whether they're ready for it. At this time, listening to songs about the sweet days of childhood can always make them relaxed.
