假定你是李华，你的美国笔友Jackson最近在考虑是否要出国留学，他来信征求你的意见。请你就此用英语给他写一封电子邮件，阐述你的观点，并给出理由(不少于三个)。
注意:1.词数80左右;
2.可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯;
3.开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。
Dear Jackson,
I’ m more than delighted to share my opinion, which I hope will be of some help to you. Frankly, I hold the view that it makes good sense to study abroad. The reasons are as follows.
To begin with, exposure to a foreign language setting while we are studying abroad makes learning process interesting and effective. Moreover, bathed in a different culture of a foreign country, we can gain great insights into the world. Finally, studying abroad takes us out of our comfort zone and changes us for the better, which is the most important from my view.
All things considered, I hope you can choose to study abroad and start a new life.
Yours,
Li Hua
