Haipiao is a word used to describe young people moving to Shanghai for better lives.But now it has a new meaning:Chinese striving in a foreign country facing an uncertain future.This kind of lifestyle is encouraged by the changing of the visa policies and their wishes to develop themselves.
Once there was a survey among 5,126 college graduates in 2015.They chose to take further study in foreign countries.As a result, 43 percent of them planned to stay in foreign countries after graduation, while 31 percent chose to return to China.The rest were not sure what to do.
“Their ideas to try their luck in a foreign country are partly because of changes in visa policies,” said Wang Qian from Aoji Enrollment Centre of International Education Ltd.
For example, the UK extended the time for the Post Study Worker (PSW) visa from one year to two years.With a PSW visa, international graduates can stay in the country, look for a job and decide on their future development.
The US also extended the Optional Practical Training (OPT) period for science and engineering majors to find a job from 12 months to 29 months.If they get a fulltime job during that time, they can apply for an H1B work visa that they may stay in the US for six years at most.

8.They want to have a try in a foreign country because ________ .
A.their teachers will help them
B.the policy gives them more chance
C.they don't know where to go
D.they haven't learnt what they want
解析:B [细节理解题。由第三段第一句中的“Their ideas to try their luck in a foreign country are partly because of changes in visa policies”可知,留学生毕业后想在国外试一下运气是因为新的签证政策给了他们更多的机会。]
