国际混合教育的好处 A Mixed Class is Preferred

“In myclass, there are two Japanese and one American. We are getting along well andit’s fun to study together with people from different cultures.” This is how acollege student describes his class. Recently with rapid development ofeconomy, China is embracing more foreign students who are eager to learnChinese and know about Chinese culture. In my opinion, a mixed class is morepreferable to an exclusive one in terms of benefits of both foreign and Chinesestudents.

“我们班有两个日本人，一个美国人，我们相处得很好，和来自不同文化的人一起学习很有趣“。这是一个学生描述他的班级。最近随着经济的发展，中国有许多想学习中文和了解中国文化的外国人。在我看来，混合班对外国人和中国学生都有益处。

I have reason to support my view. Foreignstudents may find it very helpful to further improve their language skills in amixed class. Provided that their Chinese is competent enough to follow thelectures, a mixed class furnishes them with a golden opportunity to brush uptheir Chinese proficiency and understand Chinese people. Only in this way canthey get into closer contact with Chinese. Coming from afar, they are reluctantto be separated and treated as “ foreigners”. Hence to their benefits, weshould not set barriers for their deeper involvement. Only by mixing withChinese students can they gain a better knowledge of Chinese culture.

我有理由来支持我的观点，外国学生会发现在混合班能够更进一步提高语言能力。假若他们的中文能力足够应付听课，那么混合班就给他们提供了一个绝好的机会去熟练地复习中文，还能够了解中国人。只有用这种方法他们才能加紧与中国的联系。从长远来说，他们也不想有隔阂，被当做“外国人“。因此，为了他们的利益，为了他们更进一步的提高，我们应该消除障碍。只有在混合班他们才能更好地了解中国文化。

Taking into account of all these factors, wemay arrive at the conclusion that it is beneficial to adopt the practice of amixed class. A seemingly trivial event as it is in study, it may exert aprofound impact on both students’ individual life and cross-culturalcommunication.

鉴于以上因素，我们能够得出结论，开展混合班是有益处的。这在学习中是显而易见你的，这队个人生活和跨文化交流两方面都有深远的影响。
