Brain Drain

Imagine you are sitting in your living room and out of surprise you get a call from a friend．He tells you that he's gotten the student visa and is going to study abroad for higher education．His parents may feel it a privilege that their son is guaranteed to have a bright future and unbelievable job opportunities．1. While many people believe that immigration is a personal choice that must be understood and respected, others have realized a serious problem-brain drain．Brain drain refers to the flow of highly skilled and educated people, such as doctors, engineers, scientists from less developed countries to developed countries． Brain drain has become a common social problem．2. These reasons are "Push" factors （因素） and "Pull" factors．The push factors include low wages and lack of satisfactory working and living conditions, and so on．The pull factors, however, include higher pay and better working conditions, better job opportunities, as well as better research equipment．

As we can see, many educated people are heading for richer countries, seeking higher wages and better working conditions．3. It reduces the number of creative people who can contribute to the development of their country．Meanwhile, with more successful businessmen taking their money abroad, their countries are missing an opportunity of wealth creation．4. Besides these economic effects, the brain drain has also social negative effects, such as the loss of improvement in research and technique．

Therefore, measures must be taken in less developed countries to avoid brain drain． 5. Social developments like health services and education opportunities also need improving．Otherwise, less developed countries will face an uncertain future．

A．Even you may start to admire his plans．

B．This also reduces government tax income．

C．Why should their motivations be seriously considered?

D．This of course has serious negative effects on their own countries．

E．There should be more job opportunities for highly educated people．

F．So it is important to find out the proper reasons behind the brain drain．

G．Most of the measures taken so far have not reduced the effects of brain drain．

Dana Cummings was in his thirties before he first went surfing. But, even more interesting is that Dana Cummings chose to learn the sport after losing a leg in a car accident. Now, nine years later, he helps other disabled (傷殘的) people learn how to ride the waves in AmpSurf.

On the coast of Maine, he is working with 27-year-old Matthew Fish, who is partly blind. Cummings takes hold of Fish and leads him into the ocean. The surfboard floats next to them. Fish lies on the surfboard. He tries to stand up on it. After a few attempts (嘗試) he is up and riding all the way back to land. “That was exciting,” Fish says.

A car accident in 2002 took Dana Cummings’ leg. He says the crash changed him more than just physically. “Losing my leg made me realize how precious (珍貴的) life is and get off the couch and start living. I do more things now than I ever did before. Next week I am going to compete in a contest in Hawaii,” Dana says.

One year later Dana Cummings formed AmpSurf. AmpSurf is a group that volunteers to hold surfing classes and events for people with all kinds of disabilities.

Recently, AmpSurf took its training programs to the East Coast. Eleven students attended the class in Maine. They came from all over the northeastern United States.

Dana Cummings thinks AmpSurf can change the way a disabled person thinks. “Most people with disabilities consider himself or herself unlucky and useless, but we want them to see what they can do. Who cares you lose your leg or you are blind, whatever? Have fun. Just enjoy life. Take the most advantage of it you can,” Dana says.
