完形填空。 Each year, thousands of Chinese mi

     Each year, thousands of Chinese middle school students go to study in foreign countries such as the US,
the UK, Australia and Japan.
     "Chinese children hope very much to go    1    to get a wider view (视野) of the world," said Chen Yi,

their whole year's money in the first two months of the term, and they didn't pass their exams.
     "Studying abroad at a young age can help students learn foreign language    8   and broaden (拓宽) their
minds, but students and parents should know about the challenges," Chen said. "   9   you want to study
abroad, try to talk to someone with   10   in foreign countries. Make sure that you are ready for it."
