第一段(引言段) 先是指出在商界，人们越来越意识到去海外工作所带来的益处。然后提出观点：如果人们对可能发生的问题没有做好充分的准备的话，那么这段异国他乡的经历将是令人沮丧和毫无成果的。
第二段(主体段一) 阐述出国的两点好处。其一是，有机会在实际生活中运用一门外语，并完全掌握语言技巧。其二是，去海外工作，并生活在一个全新的环境中可以开拓人的视野并使人有耳目一新的体验。
第三段(主体段二) 陈述出国的人面对的种种弊端，而其中最严重的是语言障碍。到了一个陌生的地方而不懂那里的语言，这种生活是十分压抑的。另外，出国人员在风俗习惯和言谈举止方面都必须小心谨慎，以免无意中冒犯了当地人。
第四段(结尾段) 得出结论：尽管在海外工作有许多好处，但是我们要具备足够的心理成熟度和承受压力的能力，才能跨出这勇敢的一步。
