AbroadLead

inHave

you

ever

thought

about

studying

abroad?

And

why?

Possible

answer:Yes,

I

would

like

to

study

abroad.

Firstly,

I

can

brush

up

on

my

language

skills.There,

I

can

make

friends

with

native

speakers.

Secondly,

studying

abroad

gives

me

a

chance

to

explore

a

new

culture.

It

helps

me

to

learn

more

about

different

traditions

and

customs.

answer:If

I

have

a

chance

to

study

abroad,

I

will

choose

the

There

are

many

prestigious

universities

in

the

UK,

such

as

the

University

of

Cambridge,

the

University

of

Oxford

and

so

on.

I

can

improve

my

academic

performance

there.

Besides,

I’m

interested

in

the

tourist

in

the

UK,

Big

respectedandadmiredasveryimportantorofveryhighqualityWhat

problems

or

difficulties

will

you

meet

when

you

study

in

foreign

countries?Possible

answer:Well,

maybe

I

am

not

used

to

the

food

there.

Chinese

people

prefer

cooked

food

while

Americans

are

fond

of

uncooked

food

which

I

don’t

like.

Possible

answer:As

far

as

I

am

concerned,

making

friends

is

not

very

easy

in

western

countries

because

we

share

different

cultures

and

values.

So

it

is

difficult

to

have

smooth

conversations

as

we

are

not

familiar

with

each

other’s

cultures.

values

let’s

read

three

passages

about

Chinese

students

studying

abroad

and

find

out

what

problems

they

met

there.
