范文:
Attending school abroad has many advantages. In the first place, by looking
at our own country from the outside, we can best see the strong points of our
nation, and therefore widen our vision and broaden our minds. Secondly, 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 with the latest knowledge in science and technology and
make use of the first-rate facilities available. For all these advantages, it is
really worthwhile to go abroad for further studies.
However, as everything has two sides, there are also some disadvantages in
attending a foreign university. The most serious problem is the language
barrier. Most of the students who are ready to go abroad do not have adequate
proficiency 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 constantly run into trouble in dealing with various situations. Therefore,
misunderstandings 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, even some have to return to their
motherland.
Therefore, given an opportunity to attend school abroad, one must consider
both sides of the factors carefully before making up his mind. On the whole, it
is good to go and study abroad particularly when the subject is very weak or not
available in our country. But on the other hand, one must not lose sight of the
disadvantages.
