Traveling with a Part-time Job
In these recent couple of years, it seems that the world’s young generation has begun to form a new way of traveling in the United States. It is currently the latest trend for people around the world to explore the American culture at the lowest expense ever in history, especially for students. What’s this new big splash that calls all travel lovers’ full attention? The answer is the project that the U.S. government came up with a couple of years ago, which aims to give foreign students an opportunity to experience the typical American life with exuberant styles. This is how it works: if you want to apply for this program, you need to be a student at the age from 18 to 28 years old, and you need to be able to stay there at least for 2 months. The U.S. government will offer you a pat-time job at places such as Disney Land, Universal Studios, or some national parks. And, of course, you need to command some language skills, at least to communicate in some basic terms in English. In my opinion, this is indeed a lifetime opportunity for all of us, who live in a world which English is the most dominating language; therefore, we should seize this opportunity to practice our English through our pat-time jobs as well as everyday life experience there. What’s more, we can go see some major sites and earn our own money for the trip at the same time. Sometimes it is said that you can even make more money than the total fees you pay for this project, which are about $8,0000 including the airplane tickets. So what are you waiting for? Just go apply now!

You have provided background information and ideas about a topic of interest (traveling with a part-time job), some of which can be used in the introduction part of your research paper. However, you haven't written down your title and the thesis statement. The first class meeting discussed how to narrow down the topic (see the Part 1 in the textbook). In the second class meeting, I also suggested a title:
Is it necessary to immerse yourself (e.g., traveling, working, studying) in the American culture in order to learn English well? Why or why not?
In the subsequent computer-mediated discussion, you were supposed to discuss it with your peers. Please review these ideas and find some writing prompts on the Web. Post the revised draft.
maybe you can meet some foreign student and ask some suggestion. Besides, your topic and the article doesn’t express clear dispute (it means you have to present what you want to argue or what you want to claim).
Traveling is a really intresting thing, but it needs a lot money. So if we can get a partime job in the country where we want to go, we don't have to worry about money problem. And we can learn the culture , language and many other things in thic country. When you really live in the counry, it is worthy for you going there!
There were some expatriate writer like James Joyce and Ernest Hemingway living in Paris in early 21 century. I do not know exactly how they made a living. But there are definitely some interesting experiences of liniving in foreign and working(maybe for them work is to write). And the life was though, I guess. Therefore, in addition to some casual antedotes. there were probably some vivid struggles as a writer. Since you write, spicing up your article with these progenitors is appealing, I gusee.
