Question

【题目】阅读理解B

Three months after Shang Hai (not his real name) began studying at an American high school, he received an e-mail of dismissal. The academic performance of the Chinese boy was poor–he had got grades C and D (A is the best) for most courses.
Shang is not alone. In the first half of 2014, the number of Chinese students studying in the US has increased to 275,000. But according to China Youth Daily, about 5 percent of Chinese students in US colleges are unable to graduate.
They are being sent back home because their grades are not good enough (62.1%), they cheat, such as copying other students' work (21.4%), and they have poor class attendance (10.9%).
These appear to be not from a lack of intelligence , but a lack of discipline , said the report. The situation has been getting worse since more Chinese students are studying in foreign countries at younger ages. According to the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the number of Chinese students studying in US private high schools has increased from 65 in 2005 to 23,795 in 2013.
Far away from their parents, some students are said to spend a lot of time chatting with friends, going to parties, and playing online games.
There are also great language problems. Although they have to pass language tests to study abroad, daily communication is still hard for many Chinese overseas students, according to research at Indiana University in 2013.
Because of this, many of them just stick with other Chinese students. They don't often take part in sporting events or study groups. And some could only catch bits of information during classes, said the research.
