辩题Is going to abroad to study good for Chinese students?出国留学对中国学生好吗?

是网上抄的,说了四点好处：避开国内高考“独木桥”的风险；是自己更独特；努力学习的传统所带来的优势；学习另外的语言及文化
1. Escape Domestic pressures
Let me describe some of the pressures that Chinese students face. Imagine a country full of hard working students. Add onto that the pressures of being an only-child. Then mix in a lack of a Western-style social security system, which means the parents depend on the only child for support during retirement. (Though this will become less of a problem as China develops). Finally, top it off with an ultra-competitive graduate job market. A million 2007 graduates have yet to find work. These are the pressures that the average student faces. It is hard to get ahead when all the graduates are very good.
2. Differentiate yourself
One reason for studying abroad is to differentiate oneself from the other Chinese. Only 10 Mainland Chinese universities are ranked in the top 500. So the grass really is greener on the other side (please, no jokes about the pollution). Also, there are simply not enough spaces at Chinese university to satisfy demands. As many as 4 million students could not secure places in 2005. In contrast, foreign universities welcome Chinese students (and their money) with open arms.
3. Potential Reward of Hard Work
In general, the Chinese are brilliant students. It’s simply part of Chinese culture. This work ethic has been passed onto Chinese children born in Britain, where the Chinese score the best out all the other ethnic groups. In Liverpool, the best grammar (selective) school has been invaded by (British-born) Chinese students. (OK, exaggeration).
Chinese Mainland students have shown that they are the amongst the hardest working. They would chose to stay in the library rather than go home. And they would chose to study rather than go out. They are justly rewarded for their efforts. I know at least 2 Chinese students that got First Class Honours degrees.
4. Learn the Language and Learn the Culture
As I have (painfully) found out, culture does matter. So one can learn an invaluable amount from living in a foreign country – both about ourselves and others. You can easily improve your English too. These experiences are becoming more and more important in today’s globalised economy.
