分析 这是一个命题作文，让我们写出自己对未来职业的设想．内容是开放式的，这需要我们发挥自己的想象力，创造力和思维力，把这些内容补充完整．由题目可知，写作时需要第一人称，时态为一般现在时．内容要点包括：自己喜欢的职业，是否征求父母的意见，和对未来自己职业的畅想．我们可以把这篇作文分成三部分，第一部分是作者对选择职业的看法以及父母在这一过程中的作用，第二部分是对未来自己职业的畅想，第三部分询问对方的情况．
重要的短语和句型：
future occupation 未来的职业
asked  parents for advice 寻求父母的建议
be engaged in 从事
leisure activities休闲活动
I wouldn't like to follow in my parents'footsteps．句子中 would like to do sth．译为"想要做某事"． 
I must choose my career according to my preferences．句子中according to sth．做方式状语，译为"按照"．
I'd rather be engaged in tourism-related occupations．句子中would rather do sth．是个常用句式，译为"宁愿做某事"．

解答 One possible version：
Dear Harry，
   Thank you for writing to me．I'd like to tell you something about what I am going to do in the future．
   Well，I agree that it's difficult to choose our future occupation as there are a lot of different jobs．，＜对选择职业的看法＞However，I wouldn't like to follow in my parents'footsteps as I'm not interested in their professions．＜父母在这一过程中的作用＞I've asked my parents for advice and they believe I must choose my career according to my preferences．
    As for me，I enjoy travelling and I want to see the world．So I'd rather be engaged in tourism-related occupations but I haven't made the final choice yet．＜对未来自己职业的畅想＞
   Some people turn their hobbies into their careers．Do you have any hobbies？What are your favorite leisure activities？＜询问对方的情况＞
   Hope this helps．Remember to drop me a line when you can．
   Best wishes！
Yours，
Li Jin
