    Each year, many Chinese people go abroad because of all kinds of reasons. They are becoming younger and younger year by year. Even some Chinese parents send their children to foreign countries when they are only in a middle school. They think their children can get a wider view, less academic(学业的) competition or family honor. But life can be hard for young people there. At first, they have to face the cultural differences and language problems. However, these are not always the most difficult things to overcome(克服).To most children, controlling (管理)themselves well is a big challenge when they are studying alone in a strange country. Yu Yang, a 15-year-old student from Guangdong Province studies in a high school in Toronto, Canada. ⑶To his surprise, his teachers there seldom push students to study hard. And usually there isn't too much homework .Students have lots of free time to do some activities. Some of his friends spend their whole year's money in the first two months of the new term. So they have to ask their parents for some more money. On the one hand, studying abroad can help students learn foreign languages quickly and open up their eyes, but on the other hand, some children may feel lonely, become bad, lose themselves, etc. Many problems may happen to them. These are different from their original thoughts. ⑷So parents should think them over before their children go abroad.

It seems that the cities in the future will have to change. Because the world's population1 , there will be 2 people in the cities tomorrow. 

3 may be impossible for any family to live in a house with land around it. There 4 enough space for them. A way 5 this problem may be the skyscraper city(摩天城). The highest building in6 world today is in the United Arab Emirates(阿拉伯联合酋长国). It's about 828 metres high. The skyscraper cities in the future will be many times higher. 

About 250, 000 people will live in a skyscraper city. Nearly a million people 7 live in four of these great buildings. Each skyscraper city will have four towns in it and each. town will have ten villages. They will live, work and spend their free time in them. They won't need to leave the city 8 they don't want to. They will be able to move about in the city by transport controlled9 computers. Let's imagine 10 the life will be then!
