Ned and Miles are students at different colleges. Ned applies for an online school, while Miles attends classes on a school campus. The two students each believe that their school system is better than the other.
Ned: Hey, Miles. Are you free to see a movie tomorrow night?
Miles: Sorry, no. I’ll have a class tomorrow and a lot of homework to finish up.
Ned: Oh, that’s too bad. I’m so glad I take classes online. I can decide when, where and how to complete my lessons. It saves a lot of time.
Miles: It sounds good, but I actually really enjoy going to class because it’s a great way to get to know other people. It also helps me learn how to work well with others. If I don’t understand something, I’m always able to ask about it in person. That saves me a lot of time and prevents misunderstanding.
Ned: In an online class, I have to think thoroughly (彻底地) before asking questions. That teaches me how to solve problems on my own.
Miles: Do you ever run into technical (技术上的) problems in your online classes? If you can’t open a file, how can you continue your learning?
Ned: It’s not a big problem. I can email the teacher or contact another student for help.
Miles: But answering questions through emails takes too much time. You may fall behind on your studies.
Ned: You can fall behind, too. What if you get sick or your class gets canceled because the weather is bad? Those aren’t problems for online classes.
Miles: Yes, but there’s usually a make-up (弥补) class if a class is canceled.
Ned: In an online class, I don’t have to worry about missing classes for any reason. I can always review the previous (之前的) lessons online.
Miles: Don’t you feel lonely sometimes? I would feel lonely if I had to learn on my own.
Ned: I’m confident in learning by myself. Besides, an online class gives me more free time to take part in other activities.
Miles: I still prefer having classmates to brainstorm and discuss ideas with. I believe that improves my learning all the time.
Ned: I’m pretty self-disciplined (自律的), and I work better on my own. I can’t focus when working with others.
Miles: I guess everybody learn differently.

A new report says more and more international students are attending colleges and universities in the United States. It also notes a large increase in the number of international students from China.
These findings are from the latest Open Doors Report. The report documents the record number of international students in the United States during 2012, 2013 school year. It says more than seven hundred sixty-four thousand four-hundred such students were attending American colleges and universities during the last two years. That represents an increase of almost six percent than one year earlier.
On the other hand, the number of Americans studying overseas(海外) increased by one percent, which reached nineteen thousand this year.
The report says one hundred ninety-four thousand students at American colleges and universities were from China. That is an increase of more than twenty-three percent over the year before. Peggy Blumenthal, an expert of international education, described the effect of the increase in Chinese students.
"Now they have been coming for some time. But this year was the highest level ever." She says many Chinese families are able to pay for the highest-quality education for their children. The children mainly choose to study in America.
"We know many of them have enough income to be able to afford to send them anywhere in the world that they want to go. And for the most part, looking around the world, Chinese students still prefer to come to the United States as their choice."
Chinese students are not the only ones who want to attend American colleges and universities. After China, India sends the second largest number of students to the United States for higher education. India has about one hundred thousand students in American schools. South Korea is third with about seventy-two thousand students.
Why do so many foreign students study in the United States? Peggy Blumenthal provides one reason.
"The advantage America has is that we have a huge system and a very perfect system. So there are over four thousand universities and colleges in the United States. Among them are some top ones in the world, and what that tells us is there is still a lot of room to host international students."
Foreign students represent less than four percent of the total student population in American higher education.
