There are many reasons for people to study abroad. One is that you can have the chance to make yourself know about the culture of the place. Although we humans belong only to the same one species, we are divided into several races. And when countries are divided by oceans, naturally the way of life in that country is different from ours.
Once you are studying in a foreign country, you will slowly learn to speak the language of the place. If you want to ask for directions or if you are lost, it can be of great help.
If you study in such places as Spain and the Philippines, there are lots of foreign sights to see.
Studying abroad will also give you the chance to experience a totally different curriculum(课程).
Studying abroad is also a memory that can be valued for a lifetime. Once you have made friends with your classmates, I’m pretty sure you will enjoy being with them in your hang-outs, in your parties, and even in helping out with each other’s homework.
| A．This is an opportunity to make friends from other races. |
| B．Studying abroad also offers an opportunity to travel. |
| C．Different countries have different cultures. |
| D．A college course in the UK, for example, is not similar to the one we have here. |
E. Learning the native language of the place can also greatly help you to go around.
F. English is spoken as a third language in many countries.
G. There are Africans, Europeans, Asians and etc.

If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows this, and nobody would think of questioning the fact. ________ When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by exercising it regularly, either consciously or unconsciously. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough opportunity to become strong. __
____ One of them exercises his arms and legs by playing tennis, while the other sits in a chair or a motor car all day.
If a friend complains that his arms are weak, we know that it is his own fault. ____, many of us think that his parents are to blame, or that he is just unlucky, and few of us realize that it is just as much his own fault as if it was his arms or legs that were weak. Not all of us can become extremely strong or extremely clever; but all of us can, if we have ordinary bodies and brains, improve our strength and our memory by the same means––practice.
Have you ever noticed that people who cannot read or write usually have better memories than those who can? _______ Of course, because those who cannot read or write have to remember things:they cannot write them down in a little notebook.
