Dr Wang: me
Wang Le: Yes, Dad. We want to know what made you choose your career as a doctor.
Dr Wang: That’s a good question. Well, long story short, I’ve always wanted to do great things and help people, which might explain why I entered this line of work.
Anna Smith: So were there any people who influenced you

Dr Wang: Those are certainly some great people. I admire them too.
Anna Smith: So, Dr Wang, what advice do you have for us, the younger generation
Dr Wang: I think when you are young, it is very important to find out what really interests you. Also, never lose interest in it when it seems a bit too hard for you.
Anna Smith: Thanks, Dr Wang, that’s really good advice! Successful people always push themselves to do difficult things.
Dr Wang: That’s right, Anna. They challenge themselves to solve difficult problems. It helps them reach their goals and achieve great things.
Anna Smith: Yes, exactly! Thank you very much for your time, Dr Wang. You’ve been so helpful!
Wang Le: And by the way, if we’re talking about people who do good things and inspire people—for me, it’s you, Dad…
