The number was 50,000 in 2012 while it grew to 600,000 in 2016, an increase by 12 times within 5 years. 　　It is not difficult for us to find some main factors to account for this phenomenon. First of all, thanks to the reform and opening-up policy, Chinese people are more likely to be exposed to foreign cultures, such as their folk custom, education and so on. Therefore, many of them hope to have a look at the outside world to enrich their own experience. In addition, the change has also a lot to do with the turning of people’s attitude and outlook on education. Admittedly, the education in some western countries is both advanced and comprehensive. 　　To sum up, I hold that with the further development of our society, the change is bound to continue for a few years in the future, for studying overseas does bring numerous benefits to our study and life.
