Dear Editor of the school newspaper,
I contribute to your newspaper to introduce something about the recent class meeting of mine.
Our class has held a heated debate about whether going abroad or staying at home for college education recently.
Some students think that studying abroad is a good choice because there are lots of famous colleges abroad.The environment there is nice and quiet.But the expense of studying abroad is rather high.Others prefer to study home.They believe that domestic colleges have excellent teams of teachers,the teaching equipment is advanced,and the tuition is lower.However,chances to practice are not as many as studying abroad.
As far as I am concerned,I choose domestic colleges.Although the domestic university may not be as good as the foreign university,culture difference is a big problem.To study abroad,you must get over the obstacle of language and differences in behavior and habits.
Yours,
Li Jin.
