1、送小孩到国外去学习须谨慎从事现在越来越盛行送十几岁的小孩子到国外留学，人数在急剧增加。他们的家长对国外的教育抱有不切实际的幻想。外国院校举办的教育展览把国外的学校说得天花乱坠，使他们听了介绍之后便心动变为行动。可是，把小孩子送到国外学习并不一定会带来好的结果。许多学生缺乏适应性和灵活性，他们很难溶入国外新的环境。由于在文化上难以适应，即缺乏在国外陌生环境下生存的能力，他们往往会受到所谓“文化震荡”的冲击。缺乏必要的观察能力，使他们难以理解东道主国家人民的行为表现，他们也就无法与当地人打成一片。缺乏适应性以及交流和交往能力必然会使自己感到孤立。感到孤独和在生活上不能自理（由于他们的家长对他们过于
2、溺爱和娇惯）他们会经常想家和情绪低落。更重要的是，由于他们在学习上没有打好坚实的基础，不能适应外语环境下的学习。由于他们缺乏独立学习的能力，所以就不可能取得所期望的进步。于是，许多人便不得不半途而废，放弃来之不易的学习机会。因此，过早地送小孩子到国外学习不一定是件好事情。如果想要让孩子到国外去见见世面，可以让他们集体参加短期的国外游学项目，住在外国人的家里，参加暑期班的学习，在所在地开展一些旅游活动。但这些团组必须有专门的老师陪同，提供全程性的指导和帮助。获奖译文 中译英 Be Cautious about Sending Your Children to Study Abroad作者：suz
