在准备留学的过程中，除了要确保自己过去的学习成绩能够达到dream school的要求外，语言关也是非常关键的一环。众所周知，就读国外大学一定要过语言关，语言成绩是检验学生能否在英国顺利生活和学习的关键。不同学校不同专业对于语言分数的要求也不同，大家在申请学校时一定要注意，所申请专业是否有如雅思写作小分不低于6此类的语言分数特殊要求。那么对于主流英语留学国家，都有哪些语言考试是被大部分国家都接受的呢。今天带大家梳理一下如今最主要的几个语言考试。雅思IELTS全称为国际英语测试系统（International English Language Testing System），是著名的国际性英语标准化水平测试之一。考生可以选择学术类测试（A类，Academic）和培训类测试（G类，General

the development of the national economy, Chinesepeople are getting richer and richer that their style of living and the way ofthinking are changing in different ways One of the great changes is that moreand more parents incline to send their children abroad to get higher educationwhich is quite different from the one in China Some of them even send the studentsin middle school or elementary school to different countries Therefore, wehave lots of teenager students studying abroad Personally I think, some of theteenagers are not mature enough to take care of themselves, especially some ofthem even have no ideas on how to study They are not independent When theyare at home ,they depend on their parents or grandparents Therefore ,it iseasy for them to get lost both in their life and in their study My suggestionis that we should not send the teenagers abroad too early, and the best timefor being abroad to study is after the graduation from the college oruniversity Perhaps ,that is much better随着国民经济的发展，中国人越来越富有，他们的生活方式和思维方式是以不同的方式改变。一个伟大的变化是，越来越多的家长倾向于把孩子送到国外接受高等教育，是从中国的一个很大的不同。一些他们甚至把学生在初中和小学到不同的国家。因此，我们有很多青少年学生出国留学。我个人认为，一些的青少年没有成熟到能够照顾自己，特别是他们中的一些人甚至没有想法就如何学习。他们不是独立的。他们在回家的时候，他们依赖于他们的父母或祖父母。因此，他们就失去了他们的生活，在他们的研究中是很容易的。我的建议是，我们不应该把国外青少年过早，和在国外学习的最好时间是从大学毕业后。也许，那多好。With the rapid development of society, wehave entered an era of information explosion In order to acquire moreknowledge, more and more scholars and students in our country decide to furthertheir study abroad But is it reasonable for everyone to go overseas for studyDefinitely, studying abroad brings aboutmany advantages It widens students’ knowledge and horizons, meanwhilecultivates their independence and personalities, and also it benefits theirforeign languageFirstly, students can learn advancedknowledge and experience abroad Since the policy of reform and open to theoutside world, Chinahas strengthened cooperations with many countries As a result, the scientificand technological level has been improved very rapidly However, compared withthe developed countries in the world, we still have a very long way to goStudying abroad provides opportunities to students, who can learn advancedknowledge and management experience, then they come back to enhance thescientific level of our countryAlso, studying abroad can cultivatestudents’ abilities to live independently and form their own charactersStudents have to deal with many problems when they study abroad They have tolearn how to be accustomed to a new environment and how to get along with theteachers and classmates During their studies, they can acquire someinterpersonal skillsWhat’ more, studying abroad can provide agood language environment for students and make it easy to pick up a languageForeign language is a tool employed to communicate with each other It canremove language barrier and make international cooperations much easierHowever, “Every coin has its two sides”Studying abroad also brings about many disadvantages For example, studentswill be confronted with so many psychological problems They often feel lonelyand helpless in a new environment Furthermore, the tuition is very high, whichis a very heavy financial burden to the average peopleTo sum up, the advantages of studying abroadseem outweigh the counterparts But, in my opinion, studying abroad is not justas easy as sending someone to an unacquainted environment and dreaming of beinga future scientist or expert The economic and psychological problems aredefinitely needed to be taken into account before you make the choice随着社会的快速发展，我们已经进入了信息爆炸的时代。为了获得更多的知识，我国越来越多的学者和学生选择出国留学。但它是合理的人去海外学习吗？当然，出国留学带来许多优点。它拓宽了学生的知识和视野，同时也可以培养一个人的独立性，也有利于他们的外语。首先，学生可以在国外学到先进的知识和经验。改革开放以来，中国加强了与许多国家的合作。作为一个结果，科学技术水平得到了很快的发展。然而，在与世界发达国家相比，我们还有很长的路要走。出国留学的学生提供了机会，他们可以学到先进的知识和管理经验，然后他们回来，增强我国的科技水平。同时，出国留学可以培养学生的独立生活能力，形成自己的特点。学生有许多问题要解决他们的研究在国外。他们要学会如何适应新的环境，如何与老师和同学相处。在他们的研究中，他们可以获得人际关系的技巧。更甚的是，出国留学可以为学生提供一个良好的语言环境，可以很容易地学会一种语言。外语是一个沟通的工具。它可以消除语言障碍，使国际合作变得更容易然而，“每个硬币都有两面”。出国留学也带来许多弊端。例如，学生将面临很多心理问题。在一个新环境，他们经常感到孤独和无助。此外，学费很高，这是一个非常沉重的财务负担的平均人总之，出国留学的好处似乎比同行。但是，在我看来，出国留学不容易的只要派一个人去一个陌生的环境，梦想着成为一个未来的科学家或专家。经济和心理问题肯定是需要考虑在你做出选择。
