  现在在中国的外国专家人数激增。你能解释一下原因吗?

  就像你所说的,最近随着国家的发展,对外国专家的需求也与日俱增。你认为外国专家只对技术进步有贡献吗?那么我们又怎样来衡量他们的技术水平呢?
  You: They are also helpful in creating global 3 connections between China and the world, enhancing 4 friendships between nations and advancing world peace. But the funny thing is that we can’t tell who are the real experts, so we need some way of testing who the real experts are.
  不,他们还可以帮助中国与整个世界建立联系。增进各国人民之间的友谊以及友好合作往来,促进世界和平。但是,问题是有时我们不能很好的识别哪些是真正的专家,哪些不是。因此,我们需要有一些来作为衡量的标准。
  David: Well, what countries do these foreign experts come from?
  那么这些专家都来自哪些国家呢?
  You: You name it. They come from a lot of countries, such as America, countries in Europe, and even other Asian countries, such as Japan and Korea 5.
