opinion
 on
this
 issue. On the one hand,
people
 arguing in the favour of international
news
, generally, claim that in today’s developing generation more and more
people
 prefer to choose to study abroad. In order to get more information about the policies in the target country for international students, those group of
people
 believe that international
news
 is more valuable than the local one for them. Meanwhile, due to the pandemic which our world face right now, these
people
also
 pay more attention to the international
news
 because they care for the serious level of their destination of studying.
On the other hand
, other groups of
people
 hold the opposite
opinion
 because through the local
news
 can get some practical information about the local development, it may benefit for our daily life. For instances, the subway has been constructed, the price of meat increase, the new shopping mall has opened and so on.
Therefore
, prior information can help them to know the latest change in the city and get convenience from
this
 development. In conclusion, both international and national
news
 is significant, as these both control our lives differently.
However
, for me, I believe that the international
news
 in much important because I applied to a university abroad. The policies and pandemic conditional in foreign will give more effect on me than the local
news
.
