Along with the development of society, more and more problems are brought to our attention, one of the most serious problem is that whether to attend college at home or abroad.

According to a survey, some people are in favor of the idea of getting higher education at home. They point out the factor that studying at home gives them a sense of security, which means, the help from family or friend is always available whenever they encounter some troubles; they also argue that experiencing cultural shock is unavoidable and terrible for students studying overseas, so the "homeland higher education" makes life happier and then they will concentrate more on their curriculums.

Other people who stand on the different ground. They firmly point out that studying overseas enables them to be independent and try their best to adapt to every aspect abroad. Many employers say graduates from universities abroad are better at analyzing and solving problems on their own.

It is difficult to say which one is better, as it depends very much on the situation of the students' own intention and family financial background. However, from a personal point of view, studying overseas allows people to make more friends, try more foods, and appreciate more places.

Nowadays, there has been a heated discussion as to the best choice in selecting the major. Views on the topic vary greatly among people from different walks of life. Some believe that it is a better choice to acquire knowledge in science, but others consider it better to dig into the humanities.

I totally agree with the former choice for the reasons presented below. Above all, it is good for the whole society because if more peoplein this society can choose to acquire scientific knowledge,it is more likely that the society will become better and better. Also, it is good for the person himself/herself. For example, it can help him/her become a person of practice rather than a person of words, which will make him/her a more useful person.

From my perspective, it is crucial that modern education should encourage people tobe practitioners rather than pedants. Also it is crucial that people should understand the meaning and value of scientific knowledge. Only in this way can we achieve greater success.

Living in a world which is full of changes and challenges,we are confronted with new problems every single day. Of all the issues, one might concern the high school graduates the most, and it is if there are two options: to major in science or humanities. As for me, I prefer the latter.

Why, you may wonder, should I prefer to major in humanities. The reasons responsible for it can be listed as follows.

Among the most important reasons cited by people is that to major in humanities, directly or indirectly, can not only enrich our basic knowledge about the diversified culture but also sharpen one’s insight in daily routine, which is of great importance in one’s growth.

What’s more, to study humanities can give us an independent personality and a deeper vision towards the world, if it were not for those two attributes, how could we achieve great goals in this dog-eat-dog world.

Above all, in such a society where emphasis，more often than not, is laid on the depth of one’s thought, to choose humanities as one’s major, must be the best way .

To major humanities, so at least it seems to me, is preferable for college students, if they had the chance, in the process of which we will develop an innovative thought mode.

As a proverb goes ,there is no difficulty that an innovative thought mode can not solve, no door that an innovative thought mode can not open, no mountain that an innovative thought mode can not surmount
