Original

In China the university more focused on studying. But the Western university better for both work and study. I think the two things the same important. The cooperation is the most important thing. During the university I hope my daughter can do some part-time job. Doing some labor job is healthy, and I want my daughter to know that if you want to get food, you should do some hard work. I think I learned some values on the job.
