However, if I could travel anywhere in the world for two weeks, it would be Canada. Canada is a very beautiful country and it has a
23、varied culture. Also, I am considering going to university in Canada, so it would be good for me to see what it is like before application.Canada boasts that it is one of the most beautiful countries in the world.

25、lleys. In general, Canada is an incredibly clean country, which also helps its beauty.Canada also has a widely varied culture. Most people say the cultural apex of the country is in Montreal.

30、ideoconference with ones friends and colleagues. Students will soon be presented with the opportunity to study from home. However, I believe that attending a traditional school is greatly preferable to learning in a virtual classroom. Traditional schools allow the student to socialize, they give the
31、 student direct access to the teacher, and they prepare the student for the environment of the working world.Many people say that they met their best friends while attending high school. These friendships were solidified over spending hours and hours in the same classrooms together, and working toge
32、ther on group projects. While it is conceivable that students studying from home would meet each other over the Internet, the bonds that are formed in classrooms cannot be replaced. Forming personal relationships with ones teachers is also an excellent idea that would be difficult to realize if one
33、did not attend classes. Most of our relationships with our teachers are formed by interaction both in the classroom, and outside it. For example, if a student was constantly at school, either working in the library, or perhaps eating lunch in the cafeteria, it is more than possible that he/she would
34、 converse with his/her teachers on many occasions. Developing a relationship with ones teacher is important as it helps one to build his/her business network.Traditional schools also have the advantage of training students for the real world. If a student never has to work with others on a project,
35、or report to his/her teachers, he/she will not have a very good grasp as to what it means to work in a team environment or respect authority. The way that school operates forces students to develop these important skills.In conclusion, I think it would be much more beneficial for all students to attend traditional schools rather than study at home. Attending a school helps students to develop the necessary social skills needed to survive in todays fast-pace world.
