This passage talks about micro-foreign study tours and their expected benefits for children.However, given students’ actual experience on such tours, many parents are now questioning their true value.
I think such worries are unnecessary. Travelling abroad, whether for study or pleasure, is a good way for students to broaden their horizon and become more sophisticated. My friend David went on such a tour, and said it was the most rewarding experience of his life. He attended a two-week course at Oxford University and then travelled to different parts of the UK, all of which helped him to learn more about the history, culture and society of Britain. He was so impressed by the academic atmosphere at Oxford University that he now dreams of studying there in the future.
My own dream is to travel to America, attend some lectures in my dream school, Harvard
University and travel to different parts of the USA with local students. This way I could have more opportunity to talk in English and learn about its life and culture.

This passage talks about micro-foreign study tours and their expected benefits for children. However, given students’ actual experience on such tours, many parents are now questioning their true value.
Though expensive, I still think study tours are worthwhile. “A million miles is better than a million books,” the saying goes, and my experience on my own 2-week study tour of the UK confirmed this. Besides the excitement of seeing places I had only read about or seen in movies, my efforts at communicating with local people really helped to build my confidence. Visiting Cambridge has also made me determined to return there one day, but as a student. If I go abroad again, I would like to tailor my own tour. By planning the route according to my own interests, and making decisions on things such as transport and accommodations, I would be able to apply what I’ve learned to real life and learn how to survive in a foreign country.

More and more parents engage their children in expensive “Micro-foreign study tours”. However, they’ve failed to see the expected results and begin to question the value of these study tours. I couldn’t agree more with the author. Students on such tours seldom improve in their spoken English, gain a very shallow understanding of foreign customs, and return loaded with shopping rather than cultural enrichment. I went on such a tour myself four years ago. I still remember how other students behaved in class: they were all obsessed with their own business without paying any attention to the teachers.
They were quite “enjoying” foreign classrooms: whispering and laughing, reading Chinese romantic novels, playing game-boys, or just chatting online.
Obviously, experiences like these don’t make any educational sense. Perhaps, if tours involve students not only from China, but also from other countries, it will force students to communicate in English, which, at least in my opinion, would greatly improve their communicative English skills.
