Unit 4 Study Abroad
Key to Exercises Opener
Suggested answers for reference
1. Between the 2006/07 academic year and the 2013/14 academic year, the number of Chinese students at US colleges grew from 67,723 to 274,439, making China the single largest country of origin for all international students in the US. 2. There are several reasons. For starters, Chinese families are better off now and can afford international study for their kids. Secondly, in this age of globalization, it’s natural for people to move from country to country seeking opportunities, including opportunities in a different education system. Thirdly, studying abroad is a way for countries to learn from each other. When Chinese students return from overseas, they can help develop China.
3. I’d like to study abroad. I’m curious about the outside world, want to pick up different perspectives, and broaden my mind. I’d like to draw on the best of the Chinese education system and the Western one.

2. Comprehension Check 2.1 Focusing on the main ideas
I was admitted into a freshman program at Yale that required us to read up Western classics, comprehend them, analyze them and turn in papers with original ideas on them. Although this was my first year in an all-English environment, and sometimes I was tired of all the hard work, I yearned to understand Western society. I made up for my lack of preparation with diligence. I pulled all-nighters, I lingered after class to ask questions, I learned note-taking in English from my classmates, and I visited the writing tutor.

In making the choice you may just have to rely on your instinct about what will suit you best. 4.2 Translation
