I don't think so,I have to admit that there are some Chinese students who are not concerned about world affairs but there are a large number of Chinese students who show their big interests in it.I think your teacher is a little provincial(NO DEFENSE),he or she should view it in a light of development.

Some how she is right because, I think must China students don’t participate in world affairs because of language issues.

Its a sweeping generalisation, fuzzy and dangerous!

Yes, I can't agree more!Most of the latest news are written in English.Unless we love English so much and we can read very quickly,we don't like to read in English.

No shame is necessary. Just think about English speaking people trying to speak Chinese!

So you aren't a Chinese? Well, i am. The students around me are excited when they are talking about world affairs! Absolutely, your teacher is wrong.

It may be due to general environment in China. They should explore the world physically and through internet.

@SunnyQQ - They should work hard to gain knowledge.

We do explore the information through the Internet,but most of the young spend a lot of time playing games,watching movies and so on.We care more about entertainment but not the world affairs.

Actually a lot of Americans don't have a clue as to what's going on in the rest of the world. They think America is the entire planet. It's doubtful that Chinese students don't care about world affairs. Maybe some, but not most.

i think thats true because the chinese peoples dont really want to be part of the world, they wanna be above the world, they want to be the best.
