Should students spend a period of time living and studying abroad to learn a foreign language and culture? The following are the supporters’ and opponents’ opinions. Read carefully the opinions from both sides and write your response in about 200 words, in which you should first summarize briefly the opinions from both sides and then give your view on the issue.
Marks will be awarded for content relevance, content sufficiency, organization and language quality. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks.
Yes:
When we learn a foreign language, it is very useful for us to go to the country in which the target language is spoken. In the foreign country, we are surrounded by people who speak the language that we are learning, and we are forced to use it whether or not we want, so we can learn more rapidly and easily.
In terms of culture, second-hand experience is nowhere close to "experiencing the culture" in the native environment.
In short, the best way to learn a language is to be with native speakers and learn from those who are around you, and the best way to know the local culture is to go to that country and meet the local people.
No:
Given that learning abroad does yield benefits, the question of "applicability" seems to be neglected. Students, with diverse academic interests and majors, might not need to get in touch with an exotic culture or acquire a foreign language, since the proficiency in a foreign language or the understanding of the local culture doesn’t necessarily lead to a bright future.
Besides, most students’ destination countries for their study are those developed countries where tuition and living expenses are relatively high, which may add heavy financial burden to them.

答案
Should Students Go Overseas for Language Study and Culture Acquisition? Undeniably, living in a foreign country to learn its language and culture is believed to be a rewarding experience because overseas study can let you immerse yourself in the country and really get to know the language as well as the culture from inside. However, many people contradict this statement by suggesting that studying abroad may lead to a heavy financial strain on many families and a brain drain in our homeland. Personally speaking, I deem that this practice may not work for everyone. First and foremost, surrounded by people from a different culture, some overseas students may feel completely out of place and suffer from psychological problems, such as loneliness, homesickness and depression. Furthermore, young students’ premature contact with society may make their parents’ concern mount since some of them are too immature to resist the evil temptation and to protect themselves. In addition, they may not only experience culture shock in foreign countries, but also suffer from the so-called reverse culture shock after returning to the motherland. To sum up, in spite of these positive possibilities, I think it’s neither practical nor feasible for all students to learn a foreign language and culture abroad.
解析
本题讨论的是学生是否应该出国学习外语和外国文化。在具体行文方面,考生应首先概述正反双方的观点。然后给出自己的观点:在国外学习外语和外国文化并非适用于每个人,因此没有必要让所有的学生都出国学习。最后总结全文。
开头部分开篇概述正反双方的观点。正方观点:出国留学能让学生深入了解所在国家的语言和文化,因此如果想要学习外语和外国文化就应该出国。反方观点:出国留学可能给家庭造成巨大的经济压力并导致祖国的人才流失,因此很多人反对该观点。
中间部分通过“Personally speaking…”阐述自己的观点:出国学习外语和外国文化并非适用于每个人。并用“First and foremost…”“Furthermore…”和“In addition…”阐述理由:周围都是文化习俗不同的人,有些留学生可能会感到格格不入,从而产生心理问题;留学生过早接触社会,这令其父母的担忧更甚,他们当中有些人还不成熟,无法抵制诱惑,也不会保护自己;留学生不仅在外国会经历文化冲击,回国后也会受到逆文化冲击的困扰。
结尾部分通过“To sum up…”总结全文。
