3. What is the role of overseas students in bridging different cultures? (留学生在搭建不同文化桥梁中扮演着怎样的角色?)
参考答案:
1. · Financial pressure : Studying abroad usually costs a lot, such as high tuition fees, living expenses and transportation costs, which may bring heavy economic burden to students and their families.
· Social connection difficulty : It’s not easy to make local friends due to cultural and lifestyle differences, and students may feel isolated in a new social circle.
· Cultural and lifestyle conflicts : Different eating habits, living customs and social norms may make students feel uncomfortable, for example, different concepts of time and communication styles.
· Pressure of independent life : Students need to take care of all daily affairs by themselves, like paying bills, doing housework and seeing a doctor, which is a big challenge for those who lack life experience.
· Career planning confusion : After studying abroad, students may be confused about future career choices, such as whether to work abroad or return to their home country, and how to match overseas study experience with domestic job market demands.
2. · Improve language proficiency comprehensively : Besides passing language tests, practice listening and speaking skills by communicating with native speakers, watching English TV shows and listening to podcasts to adapt to daily and academic communication.
· Learn about the target country’s culture : Read books, watch documentaries or take online courses to understand the target country’s history, customs, social norms and values, and avoid cultural conflicts caused by ignorance.
· Develop independent living abilities : Learn basic life skills such as cooking, doing housework and managing money in advance, and practice making decisions and solving problems by oneself.
· Make financial plans : Calculate the total cost of studying abroad in detail, make a reasonable monthly budget, and learn basic financial management methods to avoid financial problems.
· Build a psychological foundation : Adjust mental state, establish a positive attitude to face difficulties and setbacks, and learn basic psychological adjustment methods to deal with loneliness and anxiety.
· Connect with overseas alumni or students : Communicate with people who have studied or are studying in the target country to get first-hand experience and practical suggestions on study and life.
3. · Cultural messengers : Overseas students are the direct disseminators of their own national culture. They share their motherland’s history, art, food and customs with local people through daily communication, social activities and cultural events, making foreign people have a more real and in-depth understanding of their culture.
· Cultural learners and transmitters : They learn and absorb the excellent culture of the host country, and bring the advanced concepts, technologies and cultural experiences back to their home country after returning, promoting the cultural exchange and integration between the two countries.
· Communication bridges in daily life : In daily study, work and life, overseas students build emotional connections between people of different countries through face-to-face communication, reducing misunderstandings and prejudices caused by cultural differences, and promoting mutual trust and friendship.
· Bridges for academic and professional exchange : In the academic and professional fields, they participate in international research, seminars and internships, promote the exchange and cooperation of knowledge and technology between the two countries, and drive the development of related industries and disciplines.
· Ambassadors for long-term cultural friendship : The friendship and connections established by overseas students with local people can last for a long time, laying a solid foundation for long-term cultural and people-to-people exchanges between countries, and promoting the peaceful development and mutual understanding of the world.
