I Want to Go to the USA

To go to the USA is one of my greatest goals. I am making a great effort to realize "her," my goal. Some people will tell me, "The USA is certainly developed, but it is also very dangerous because you don't know anything about it and you don't have any close relatives there." But I like the USA very much; she has already attracted me. I think the USA is not only developed, but also the quality of people there is very high. This is only one reason why I have to go to the USA.

I admire the lifestyle of American children very much. They are allowed to earn money themselves, to develop their minds and bodies as they wish. In China, children don't have this power over themselves. American children make small inventions, and their parents support them. Furthermore, their parents are proud of them! Chinese parents are sometimes not as supportive.

Most families in the USA have computers. American children don't have to pay to go to school. These things embody the fact that the USA is developed. People in the USA value time very much. All circles of society see that "time is money."

I love the USA. Besides the reasons above, another important reason is that I think the USA is very beautiful. Since the time I saw TV programs introducing the USA, I have loved it, and I am now carrying out my plan to study seriously for five more years, and then go to the USA!
