報告顯示 去年126萬中國學生出國留學佔全球1/4

China had a total of 1.26 million students overseas as of 2015, accounting for 25% of the world's total number of students studying outside their native country, meaning one in four such students is from China, according to the 2016 Report on the Development of Chinese Students Studying Abroad.

據《2016中國留學發展報告》稱，截至2015年，中國在海外留學的學生共有126萬人，佔世界留學生總數的25%，這意味着每四個留學生中，就有一個來自中國。

The report was released by the Center for China and Globalization think tank in Beijing.

該報告是由位於北京的智囊機構"中國與全球化研究中心"近日發佈的。

The report said China is the largest origin of international students for English-speaking countries including the US, the UK, Canada and Australia.

報告稱，中國是美國、英國、加拿大、澳大利亞等英語國家最大的留學生生源國。

Meanwhile, Chinese students also make up the largest proportion among international students of countries in the "Chinese-culture circle", such as Japan, South Korea and Singapore.

同時也是日本、韓國、新加坡等"漢語文化圈"國家最大的留學生生源國。

Statistics show that Chinese students account for more than 30 percent of total overseas students in the U.S. and Canada, and about 62 percent of international students in South Korea.

統計數據顯示，在美國和加拿大全部留學生中，中國留學生的比例超過了30%，而在韓國，這一比例大約爲62%。

The report pointed out that China has been the largest source of overseas students in the U.S. for seven consecutive years, and the number of Chinese students earning bachelor's degrees surpassed the number of those doing graduate studies for the first time last year.

報告指出，中國已經連續7年成爲赴美留學生最大輸出地，而去年攻讀學士學位的學生人數第一次超過了研究生人數。

The report notes that from 1978 to the end of 2015, more than 4 million Chinese students went abroad to study. Among them, 126,430 students are still in school, and 221,860 have returned to China since finishing their studies.

報告稱，從1978年到2015年，有超過400萬名中國學生赴海外學習。其中126430人仍然在上學，221860人完成學業後歸國。

The total number of returning students has increased significantly since the academic exodus began. Good job opportunities and international remuneration are the main factors attracting returnees.

自從中國學術研究開始上升以來，留學歸國的學生人數已經顯著增加了。良好的就業機會和國際薪酬是吸引海歸的主要因素。

Also playing a role are favorable measures including the liberalization of immigration restrictions, support for scientific research, the abolition of household registration restrictions and more.

此外，取消移民限制、支持科學研究、取消戶籍制和其他一些措施都發揮了有利的作用。

Most returnees choose to work in first-tier cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. They are mainly involved in the financial, manufacturing, education and scientific industries.

大多數海歸都選擇在北上廣等一線城市工作，主要從事於金融、製造、教育和科學等行業。

More than 60 percent work in grassroots positions with salaries that fall short of their expectations, according to the report.

不過據報告顯示，超過60%的人工作在基層，薪酬要低於預期。
