①Two months ago, in a small village in China, a group of high school students were preparing for a cultural exchange program with a school in the United States, which aimed to motivate the students to become better global citizens. They were excited to learn about American culture and share their own rich traditions. ②In order to qualify for this opportunity, the students had to apply and present their reasons for taking part in this program. They acknowledged that this exchange would require a lot of effort, but they were willing to step out of their comfort zones and enjoy this unique experience.③Later, these students got the opportunity and then they departed for America. Their families and friends expected them to adapt to the new environment as soon as possible and make the most of this exciting opportunity.④When arriving in America, the students quickly realized that cultural differences were more than just language barriers. They participated in various activities to involve themselves in the American way of life, learning how to cooperate with others. The local American students also encouraged their Chinese friends to try new things, even exposing them to the holiday traditions and some local American food.⑤With the help of the exchange program, the students became more confident in communicating in English and began to appreciate the beauty of cultural diversity. They developed a deeper understanding of the world and the importance of cultural exchange.
