I have been in suzhou for over nine months, and there are only a few days left in suzhou. Now I look back on my study abroad and find that there are all kinds of memories. Of course, not only happy, happy memories, but also sad, sad. But now they have become precious memories.
When I first jumped on Chinese land, I thought about studying in China for a year, so I really didn't know if I could go on. Because I didn't expect the Japanese culture to be so different from the Chinese culture. Although Japan and China are neighbors of the water belt, there are actually many different places.
Common sense seems to us in Japan, but it doesn't work in Chinese society many times. For example, when we buy something, we should wait in line, but when we wait in line like in Japan, we don't get old. In a shop, in a roadside stand, in a snack bar, if we are not careful, it is easy to be cheated.
The traffic in these two countries is different. The road in suzhou city is narrow and crowded. There are bicycles, motorcycles, buses, taxis and walkers on the road. In Japan, people generally obey the traffic rules. Because of the strict traffic laws in Japan, the fines are very heavy. But in China? Many people don't seem to take traffic rules as one thing. The first time I saw someone crossing the street, I was very surprised.
However, the biggest problem I encountered in studying in China was the language barrier. This is a matter of course. And for me, that's a big problem.
When I first came, my Chinese was very low. The level of speaking and listening is almost zero. Because of my poor Chinese, I often get angry with the Chinese because of misunderstanding. There are other situations, such as the fact that I sometimes find myself discontented in the road, department store, dormitory, etc. I always feel ashamed. But the teachers and Chinese friends were so enthusiastic about helping me so badly. They are trying to teach me Chinese. They gave me the correct pronunciation when they saw that I had a particular problem with spoken English.
For a time, I didn't go to class. Because at that time, I could not integrate into China's life, and could not understand Chinese culture and society. I think this is probably what we call "culture shock". I've been in a bad mood and I don't want to do anything. At that time, my teachers and friends were very concerned about me and helped me. There was a teacher who came to my room to see me and encourage me. I was very moved. For myself, I am determined to continue studying abroad.
Since then, I've come to understand that, like Japan's unique culture, China has its own culture. In my opinion, Japanese culture is not the same as Chinese culture. Before comparing Japan with China, I need to understand China and understand China. I have come to China to study abroad. To know China is a very important task for our foreign students. Since then, my view of China has gradually changed. At the same time, my study abroad life is getting smoother and smoother. I have found a lot of happiness in China's study abroad, and the road of life seems to be paved with sunshine.
First of all, I want to chat with more Chinese people. I went to various places of interest with my friends, went to the snack bar, and sometimes went to the bar to drink. I speak to people I know everywhere I go. When I went to my Chinese friend's dormitory, her roommates welcomed me warmly. I had a very pleasant day with them on the Mid-Autumn festival, which is still fresh in my memory.
Also, when our foreign students come to visit a Chinese family, she, her lover, her sister and her children have cooked a delicious meal for us. We were touched by their warm hospitality. There are many other memories, too many to write here. This is a valuable experience that I have gained since I was brave enough to go out with the Chinese people, and through their communication, I can also understand Chinese and Chinese culture.
Now, China is growing fast. As soon as we go outside, we can see the changing Chinese society. The roads were paved, the old buildings were torn down, and the new buildings were erected in succession. People's living standards are getting higher and higher. However, on the other hand, China still retains the ancient culture that the Chinese people deserve to be proud of. I hope that no matter how the Chinese society develops, do not lose this kind of culture. I hope to keep the traditional culture that makes people feel warm.
I'm about to leave suzhou. Now I really don't want suzhou, I don't want suzhou university, I don't want Chinese friends. But I know that I often miss studying abroad when I go back to Japan. And all kinds of precious memories will surely encourage me to move bravely on the road of life.我在苏州已经九个多月了，在苏州的留学生活只剩下不多几天了。我现在再回顾自己的留学生活，发现其中有各种各样的回忆。当然，不只是有高兴的、愉快的回忆，也有难过的、伤心的。但是，现在它们都已经变成了很珍贵的记忆。
我第一次蹈上中国土地的时侯，想到要在中国留学一年，那么长的时间，我真的不知道自己能不能继续下去。因为我没想到日本的文化与中国的文化竟然有那么大的差别。虽然日本与中国是一衣水带的邻国，但是实际上还是有很多不同的地方。
在我们日本人看来是一般的常识，但是在中国社会上很多时侯却行不通。比如说,买东西的时侯应该排队，可是当我们像在日本那样排队等侯时，却老也轮不到。在商店、在路边的摊子、在小吃店，如果我们不小心的话，很容易上当受骗。
这两个国家的交通请况也不一样。苏州市内的路又窄又挤。路上有自行车、摩托车、公共汽车、的士和走路的人等，熙熙攘攘的。在日本，一般人都遵守交通规则。因为日本的交通法规很严格，所以违反交通规则的话，罚款很重。但是在中国呢 ? 很多人好像并不把交通规则当成一回事。我第一次看到有人随便过马路的时侯,非常吃惊。
不过，在中国留学，我遇到的最大问题还是语言障碍。这也是理所当然的事。而对我来说，这是个很大的问题。
刚来的时侯，我的汉语水平很低。口语与听力水平几乎是零。由于我的汉语水平很差，因此在交往中常常令中国人因误会而生气。还有别的情况，比如,有时在路上、百货大楼、宿舍等都遇到不满意的情况，我总觉得自己很丢人。但是老师们与中国朋友们热情地帮助这么差劲的我。她们拼命地教我汉语。看到我在口语方面特别有问题，她们就给我纠正发音。
有一段时间，我一直不去上课。因为那时候我不但不能融入中国的生活，而且不能理解中国文化与社会。我想这大概就是所谓的"文化休克"现象。我的心情一直很不好,什么也不愿意做了。那时候，我的老师们与朋友们很关心我、帮助我。有位老师,还亲自到我房间来看我并鼓励我。我非常感动。为了自己，我决心坚持继续留学生活。
从那以后,我渐渐明白了,像日本拥有日本独特的文化一样,中国也拥有它自己的文化这个道理。我认为，日本的文化与中国的文化不一样是理所当然的。在把日本与中国比较以前，我先要了解中国并理解中国。我是到中国来留学的，了解中国是我们外国留学生的一个很重要的任务。从那以后，与以前比较起来，我对中国的看法逐渐改变了。同时我的留学生活也越来越顺利了。在中国的留学生活当中，我找到了很多快乐，生活的道路好像又铺满了阳光。
首先我想与更多的中国人聊天了。我与朋友们一起去各种各样的名胜古迹游览,去小吃店吃饭，有时候去酒吧喝酒。我与在所到之处认识的人主动说话。我去中国朋友宿舍的时候，她的同屋们都热情地欢迎我。我与她们一快过的中秋节那一天实在是很愉快的，至今还记忆犹新。
还有，我们外国留学生一起到一位中国人家作客的时候，她、她爱人、她姐姐与姐姐的孩子们一快给我们做了丰盛的菜肴。她们的热情款待使我们很感动了。其他回忆还有很多，多得在这里写不下。这都是我勇敢地去外面与中国人交往以后，才得到的宝贵经验，而且通过她们的交流以后，我还能了解中国人与中国文化。
现在，中国的发展很快。我们一去外面就能看到处于不断变化中的中国社会。道路铺修得很整齐,古老的建筑被拆除了，新的建筑接二连三地竖立起来。人们的生水平也确实越来越高了。但是，另一方面，在中国还保留着中国人民值得骄傲的古老文化。我希望不管中国社会怎么发展也不要失掉这这种文化。我希望可以永远留住那些使人们感到温情的传统文化。
我快要离开苏州了。现在我真的舍不得苏州、舍不得苏州大学、舍不得中国朋友们。但是我知道，回日本以后我常常怀念这儿的留学生活。而且各种各样的珍贵记忆肯定能鼓励我在生活的道路上勇敢地前进。
