Did the author think she would earn a lot of moneyI had always dreamt of working in a bank because I thought I would earn a lot of money. I was told that I had to try hard to make my dream come true. I burnt the midnight oil and finally had some success. First, I was accepted to a prestigious secondary school in Hanoi. There, I gained not only knowledge but also a number of skills including teamwork, cooperation, and interpersonal skills. I also become much more organized thanks to the mountains of work which had to be completed to meet the strict deadlines. I felt I was lucky to have such supportive peers and excellent teachers. My next achievement was when I gained admission to the Banking Academy of Viet Nam. After three years, I graduated and was awarded a degree in banking. But I realized that I wasn’t suited to a nine-to-five job in a bank, even though I was still interested in the subject of finance. Feeling confused, I decided to talk to my parents and my closest friend. Interestingly, I learned that I had the qualifications, skills, and above all, the aptitude for a teaching career. And now I’m a lecturer for the Banking Academy where I graduated. 1. Did the author think she would earn a lot of money? _______________________________________________________________________ 2.
