谈出国(On Going Abroad) On Going Abroad A lot of us students at college dream of going abroad for further study. Inside the country we are under the protcction of our parents, teachers and schoolmates. We have no sense of crisis. However, we want to see the world, and we enjoy adventure. I am no exeeption. My parents do not think much of it. They would have me near them, yet I will have my owu way. I envy those who are lucky enough to get the scholarship. And God hlessed me. I am also awarded with a teaching assistantship. Now I have stepped onto the American soil, and I am standing on it with a snide. The outside world is wonderful and also strange. I am speaking from my own feelings as one who has come to the United States. Immigration or further study abroad, the identity of both puts us overseas Chinese in a solitary state. Everyone has this subconsciousness, that if the country we are from or belong to, is strong and advanced, we are born with a sense of superiority. Some tend to try hard to show it. Some reveal it with or without intention. Even those poorly educated are proud and look down upon others. We are equally educated. We have the same grace and manner and temperament. Why should they look down upon us? I think the key lies in that we should first make our country strong economicaly. Economy is the foundation of a nation. Only when the nation is strong, so will its people. Of course, education plays an important role in the making of a nation. |
