Living abroad will make you a different person and it will change you forever in a good way. I lived abroad for more than four years.【小题1】. Here are the most important four reasons why you should study abroad and make the most of your stay abroad.

Improve your job chances.【小题2】.HR（人力资源）managers value international experiences highly, as job-hunters with experiences of studying abroad are considered to be adaptable, independent and open with problem-solving skills.

【小题3】.Getting out of your home is certainly not easy, but it will help you grow. Go out there and experience the world. See it as an adventure that you will tell your grandkids about. Sometimes you have to push yourself and then you will have this amazing feeling of achievement.

Create a memory of a lifetime. Spending time abroad will be an adventure and those memories will last for a lifetime. I know a lot of people that once lived abroad and none of them regrets the time they spent abroad. Yes, there will be difficult times. When you don't understand the people around you, everything is foreign and nothing makes sense.

Everyday tasks seem like a major problem.【小题4】.

Become independent. Living in a foreign country all by yourself will surely make you independent. You are forced to make decisions by yourself as you don't have other choices.

【小题5】. Show them that they were all so wrong about your being a mama's boy （or girl）! It will feel great!

I have a warm story to share with you. A school in San Francisco not only accepted a deaf student，but also 【小题1】（teach）the entire class sign language to allow them to better communicate with him.

The moving story began in September last year 【小题2】 a woman asked the primary school in her neighborhood 【小题3】（accept）her six-year-old son，James，who has a hearing 【小题4】（disable）.The teacher，Lily，agreed almost immediately，【小题5】 on the first day of school，she noticed James 【小题6】（sit）all by himself，unable to communicate with any of his classmates.

Lily，【小题7】（determine）to find a way out，tried developing a few signs of her own. But a parent of another child came up 【小题8】 an even better idea —getting the whole class to learn sign language along with James. So they got a sign language teacher on board，and three months later，James was able to communicate 【小题9】（happy）with all his classmates about regular things like homework and 【小题10】（game）.

How are you？I'm writing to _________________________________________________________________

Yours,

I came to the North America when I was 14 year old. Immediately upon my arrive I was put into an English class to learn to speak English. In Korea, we lived close to a US base. However, as a child, I grew up thinking there was only two types of people, black soldiers and white soldiers, and that they all spoke English. So you can imagine my determination to speak English. When I settled Los Angeles and went to school, I work really hard. I would talk with his friends outside of class, or study hard in class. I noticed my English improved so faster!

As we have learned English for a very long time，we may complain it. We once made the joke that foreigners should learn Chinese. Now，it was not a joke anymore. More and more foreign people are interesting in Chinese，and many of us learn Chinese well. There was a hot show calling Chinese Bridge. I had been seen the show，and I was very impressed by the foreign students，whom spoke Chinese very well. We should learn from those foreigner because they showed us a way to learn a language good.
