Going Abroad for Studies
1) The other day I announced that I would go abroad for further studies right after my college education. My decision evoked the immediate objection of my family: Why? Why should I borrow a huge sum of money for overseas studies while I might receive the same education at home at relatively low cost? My answer is: in addition to knowledge, I can gain experiences that those who stay at home will never have. ( 用個人經(jīng)歷引出主題，繼而引出了文章觀點：我出國讀書不知是為了知識，還有在國內(nèi)讀書體驗不到的經(jīng)歷 )
2) First, experience is the opportunity for the real-life use of foreign languages. (主題句)While a person can study a foreign language at home, the effect can never be compared with constant use of the language in academic and everyday life. There is no better opportunity to improve second-language skills than living in the country in which it is spoken. Living in English-speaking countries such as America and Australia for several years, for example, my English will be as perfect as native speakers.(在國外自然接觸外語的經(jīng)歷，其能力的提高是在國內(nèi)不能比的)
3) Second, living and studying abroad offers me a different perspective of the world. (主題句)On a university campus, foreign students are likely to encounter their counterparts from different countries and areas and are exposed to different ideas and values. This helps me to have a meaningful understanding of different societies and inevitably sees my own country in a new light.(在國外接觸不同國家的價值觀念，對了解自己國家，了解世界，開闊眼界很有幫助)
4) Third, overseas experience, frustrating and painful as it may be, is helpful. (主題句)A person going abroad for study often experiences much more difficulty—difficulty in adapting to a new culture and in dealing with all problems alone. Yet, the difficulty, coupled with the frustration brought on by culture shock, is a rewarding experience for one”s future life and development of personality. (在國外遇到的挫折，和獨立處理問題的經(jīng)歷對人生的成長是一種寶貴的財富)
5) Although going abroad is expensive and perhaps painful, the payoff is worthwhile. For the benefit is not merely knowledge gained, but the experiences desirable in one”s personal life.(回到文章開頭：出國學習所得到的不僅僅是知識，而且還有經(jīng)歷)
