From the table, we can see that in the past 10 years, the number of people in a given city who have gone traveling abroad has increased considerably. Especially in the recent 5 years, the figure has been more than tripled, surging from 40,000 to 120,000.

There are several reasons for the change. Firstly, with the development of economy, more and more people become better off. And their ability to finance their trip abroad is growing. Secondly, tourism has greatly developed over the decade. Travel agencies offer not only domestic packages but also travel specials abroad. In addition, individuals today are expected and encouraged to go outside to widen their horizon and to face the real world of globalization. In this way they hope to keep themselves informed of what is going on around the world.

From the changes reflected in the table, we can predict that the number of individuals going out of the country will boost. This encouragingly and inevitably facilitates the cultural exchange between ours and the rest of the world and this trend will be irreversible.

In recent years, more and more citizens here would like to travel abroad. In 1995, the number of people who would like to travel abroad was 10000, which increased to nearly 40000 in 2000. And in 2005, the number further climbed above 12,000. There are several reasons for the shocking rise.

The improvement of the economic conditions is probably the main reason for it. People do not need to worry about their diet and various other necessities. After visiting famous scenic spots throughout our country, the citizens’ taste has changed, with support of enough finance.

Moreover, enhancement of personal capacity is becoming more and more a requirement for those who want to make greater success. With the development of economy and technology, citizens begin to take advantage of different foreign products as well as education. Since most citizens have got used to their life at home, traveling abroad becomes one of the easiest ways to have direct contact with exotic cultures.

Many advantages as traveling abroad may bring to us, it may also bring about many disadvantages. For instance, there are many elites who have ever traveled abroad may be attracted by the nicer living and researching conditions abroad and thus never return, which is really a pity to our nation.

Comparatively speaking, traveling abroad is a serious decision to make. Maybe, look before you leap is better.

Traveling abroad

As we can see from the chart, during the past decade, the number of people from City X traveling abroad increased to more than 120,000 in 2005, from 40,000 in 2000 and 10,000 in 1995. A 12-fold growth in 10 years, what a sharp rise!

This increase resulted from a number of factors. First and foremost, with the improvement of living standards, people in the city can afford traveling to a foreign country (they have never been to before). In addition, as the travel industry grows, travel abroad has become quite easy. All you have to do is book a tour at a travel agency, and they make all the arrangements for you.

Some unexpected things, however, may accompany this trend. As far as I can see, most of them seem beneficial. For one thing, it will generate much publicity about China, and this may cause foreigners to visit here, helping the tourism industry in our country. For another thing, to survive in this competitive situation, travel agencies in China will have to improve their services to meet the needs of customers. That's good news to everyone, I think.

In conclusion, I believe this trend will bring many more advantages than disadvantages for China's development.
