Choose the ones that are the most appropriate from 1 to 6 for 17~19.
1. Canada 2. Russia 3. Taiwan
4. Thailand 5. UK 6. USA
W: What are you looking at?
M: This is interesting. Look how many international students come from China!
W: Yeah, more than 60 percent.
M: Wow, 75 percent of international students are from China and South Korea. That must be because they’re so close to Japan.
W: Well, that can’t explain everything, because only about four percent come from Taiwan. And Russia isn’t far from Japan either, but less than one percent come from there. Almost the same number as from the UK and Canada.
M: Wait. Only 1.7 percent from the USA?
W: I guess so. The same percentage come from Malaysia. And Thailand too.
M: Hmm. But if we look at the actual numbers, the US sends the fewest of the three.
W: Yeah. We haven’t met many students from those countries, have we?
M: Why don’t we plan an international student party this month? Then we can all get to know each other better.
W: That’s a great idea!
