Studying Abroad
Attending schools abroad has many advantages. In the first place, by looking at our own country from the outside, we can best see the strong points and weak points of out nation and therefore widen our vision① and broaden our minds. Second, while studying in a foreign country, we can travel widely, visiting famous scenic spots and making friends with the local people. Thirdly, we can use the foreign language in our daily life so that our ability in the second language may be improved quickly. But the most important thing in attending a foreign university is to get acquainted with② the latest knowledge in science and technology and make use of the first-rate facilities③ available. For all these advantages, it is really worthwhile to go abroad for education.
However, as everything has two sides, there are also some disadvantages in attending a foreign university. The most serious problem is the language barrier④. Most of the students who are ready to go abroad do not have adequate proficiency⑤ in the language spoken there. As a result, on arriving there, they will find it difficult to understand what the instructors are saying. Besides, for lack of knowledge of the customs and way of life of the local people, they may run into trouble in dealing with various situations. Therefore, misunderstandings⑥ often arise. Furthermore, the cost of living is much higher than that in our country, so most students have to find part-time jobs in order to help support themselves. Faced with these difficulties, many students find themselves unable to pay full attention to their studies and some students may even fail in their courses and learn little.
Therefore, one must consider both sides of the factors carefully before making up his mind to study abroad. On the whole, it is a good thing to study abroad, but the disadvantages should not be ignored.
