Read the article and work with a partner to analyse the structures in the underlined sentences. Use the tip for help.
Understand long sentences
English structures are different from those in Chinese, but you can figure out what a long sentence means by following a few simple steps.
1 Decide if the sentence is compound (look for and, but, or, etc.) or complex (look for who, when, where, etc.).
2 Find the main clause if it is a complex sentence.
3 Look for modifiers.
① I had to learn how to use public transport and how to ask for things
I didn't know the English names for.
Modifier: Attributive clause
Complex sentence
Chinese meaning：我必须学习如何使用公共交通工具，以及如何询问一些我叫不上英文名字的东西。
② Although some foreign students live in campus accommodation, Xie Lei chose to live with a host family, who can help with her adaptation to the new culture.
Modifier: Attributive clause
Modifier: Adverbial clause
Complex sentence
Chinese meaning：虽然有些外国学生住在学校宿舍，但谢蕾还是选择了寄宿家庭，这样可以帮助她适应新的文化。
③ The first time that she had to write an essay, her tutor explained that she must acknowledge what other people had said if she cited their ideas, but that he mainly wanted to know what she thought!
Modifier:Attributive clause

Discuss the following questions in groups.
1. Why did XieLei choose the exchange programme
She chose the exchange programme because she wanted to learn about global business and improve her English. Her ambition was to set up a business in China after graduation.
2. Why has Xie Lei got involved in social activities
Because it can help her adapt to the new culture there. She’s also keen to share her culture with the British people.
3. How has Xie Lei helped to build bridges between China and the UK
As well as studying in the UK, she acts as a cultural messenger sharing Chinese culture with people around her by giving a presentation on traditional Chinese art, teaching people how to cook Chinese food, and involving herself in social activities.
4.What other challenges do you think students studying abroad might face
How can students prepare to handle these challenges before going abroad
One big challenge is the language—they may think they are good at English, but they are not used to hearing English being spoken at a normal speed, they are not used to English being spoken with a heavy accent, and they are not familiar with many English idioms.
The best way to prepare is to try to immerse themselves in English before they go abroad. They should watch a variety of English-language films and TV programmes without using subtitles, listen to English songs, and use every opportunity to speak with native English speakers.
Another challenge may be coming to terms with the differences in a culture that is different to their own. Locals, however, will generally be understanding that the student is new to the country, and will appreciate attempts to learn and understand more about their culture. That is why it is best to be kind, respectful, and enthusiastic to try new things when in a foreign country—locals will be more willing to help new students and will be patient.
It can also be scary to try to fit into the new lifestyle while there, since it is so different to their own. Maybe students will face times when they don't understand the proper way to do something, such as paying utility bills. In this case, there is always someone who is willing to help—either at your university campus or even in a local shop.
