Answer 1

On Teenagers Studying Overseas

 

One possible version：

Nowadays more and more people are sending their children overseas for further study, even at middle school age. 38% of the people investigated agreed to this. They think their children can receive better education and learn a foreign language as well. And they will have better opportunities to develop themselves. More importantly, they can learn to depend on themselves and broaden their horizons and improve their understanding of the world.

However, over 62% of the people, especially some educators and parents, are not in favor of this. They think studying abroad costs over ten times as much as in China. Besides, children are too young to take care of themselves. Many parents worry about the safety of their children. What's more, they might follow bad examples without proper guidance.

　 In my opinion, measures should be taken by the government to set up various schools and colleges to meet different needs of the people.
