“USA? Britain? Which country is the better to study in ?” We often hear such discussions. As China opens its door, it’s a dream for many Chinese students to study abroad. They want to learn about the outside world.

? It’s true that studying abroad can help students develop themselves. Their foreign language skills will be improved and it may be easier to find jobs.

? But there are problems that should be considered. Language is the first. Students must spend a lot of time to learn another language.

? Students must also learn to live without parents’ care and deal with all kinds of things they haven’t done before, like looking after themselves. There are reports about Chinese students abroad running into an ocean of difficulties and giving up finally when they have to take care of themselves. It’s hard for students to study well.
