door， it is a dream for many Chinese students to study abroad． They want to learn about the outside world．It's true that studying abroad can help students develop themselves． Their foreign language skills will be improved and it may be easier to find jobs．But there are problems that should be considered． Language is the first． Students must spend a lot of time learning another language．Students

use of solar energy． They call the device a solar tree． Solar trees have metal "branches*" which are just from a tall pole at different levels． Each branch holds a solar panel*． These panels have large metal boards that collect energy from the sun and turn it into electricity．Daljit Singh Bedi is the main scientist at the Council ofScientific and Industrial Research in India． Bedi says the shape of the solartrees makes it possible to fit more solar panels in a space than traditional systems do． This means less land would be needed to produce solar energy． "It takes about four square meters of space to produce energy which may need 400square meters of space，" he says．Scientists believe the energy a solar tree collects will be enough to power five homes． The solar tree will make it easier to provide solar energy for homes in cities． The trees will also take less space from farmers in rural areas． Bedisays solar trees will collect more energy than normal solar panels on the tops of buildings． "This design makes the solar panels exposed*more towards the sun，" he says． "And that way people are able to use 10to 15percent more energy．"India has promised to reduce its greenhouse gas production． The country's promise depends heavily on increasing solar energy． The cost of solar panels has gone down in recent years． has increased the possibility of applying*solar trees in
