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 t
o 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.

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. As a result, as the
year came to an end, I received
A’s
for all my papers.
2.2 Digging into detail
1. No, there
wasn’t. Because
when

canons in a

concerned about whether they
are
interested, willing or able to.
4.
Because
she
had
been
used
to
the
Chinese
way
of
learning
humanities,
i.e., teachers
giving out standard interpretations for students
to
memorize.
