高分范文及解析

Introduction

To leave or to stay in our own country, that is a question. From my perspective, the key to this debate to a large extent lies in the domain we work in and the abilities we have fostered.

解析

全球化大话题下的老题。写观点时注意考虑问题的全面性，“出国开销大、更发达”并不是特别合理的观点，以中国为例，去欧洲或非洲或东南亚都是“leave our home country”。相关话题：Nowadays, lots of students choose to pursue higher education abroad. Why do they choose to attend universities overseas?

Ø domain n. 领域

Ø foster vt. 培养（常跟抽象名词）

Body 1

Leaving the home country does have its edges. For one thing, when living in a country that is advanced in the academic or technological domain a person wishes to pursue, he or she has the chance to receive the education or training of much higher quality than what his or her motherland provides. In this case, they are more likely to polish their knowledge, optimise their techniques, and update the information related to the field, thus gaining an edge over other counterparts in the rat race. For another, some people, especially those who have mastered certain skills, can leave for the country where elites in relevant fields are in dire need. In other words, the more vacancies the foreign country offers, the more opportunities they have. By stark contrast, staying in the mother country may either render them lagging behind in knowledge updating or incur heavier pressure brought by the intense competition.

解析

出国的好处：1. 去往在自己专业领域下比自己国家拥有更前沿技术的国家 → 更新知识，使自己更有竞争力 → 更多工作学习机会；去往缺少自己领域相关人才的国家 → 更多职位空缺//[对比论证] 留在本国：要么知识更新慢，要么竞争压力大

Ø edge n. 好处，优势

Ø motherland n. 祖国

Ø polish vt. 润色

Ø optimise vt. 优化

Ø the rat race n. 〔大城市里的〕永无休止的激烈竞争，你死我活的竞争

Ø elite n. 精英

Ø vacancy n. 〔职位〕空位，空缺

Ø lag behind vi. 落后

Body 2

There are also a couple of benefits if one chooses to stay in the home country. The most conspicuous one is that he or she is more able to adapt into the changeable working environment. Unlike people studying or working abroad, who may be confronted with language barriers and unfamiliar cultural backgrounds, those staying in the mother country are more than equal to the task of coping with their work based on their deep knowledge of relevant policies or sound connections in the industry. Not surprisingly, the latter can seize more opportunities, while the former may suffer from reverse culture shock.

解析

留在本国的好处：更熟悉的环境，对政策、背景更熟知 → 更快适应工作学习环境// [对比论证] 语言障碍，陌生环境 → “逆向文化休克” → 不适应国外学习和工作

Ø conspicuous adj. 明显的

Ø confront vt.〔问题、困难等〕使遇到，使面对

Ø be more than equal to a task 游刃有余

Ø connections n. 人际关系

Ø reverse culture shock n. 逆向文化休克

Conclusion

In a nutshell, if people tend to leave their home country for more studying or working opportunities, it is advised for them to think in advance about their individual issues and long-term goals, plan carefully, and get prepared for possible obstacles.
