Straight to the point: There are mountains beyond mountains, towers beyond towers. This book introduces not a mirage. No smoky aroma of foreign Chinese restaurants, no tediousness, no sudden wealth and business opportunities from overseas, no romantic encounters in foreign lands, no thrilling illegal border crossings or fights. With concise and simple language, it tells an ordinary yet real education story, letting examples answer three questions: What qualities should one cultivate before studying abroad? What cultural conflicts might one encounter abroad? What are the differences between the education systems of Western English-speaking countries and China?
