What type of writing is used in the passage? "Studying abroad gives students valuable experiences that go beyond what they learn in the classroom. Living in a different country teaches them to manage budgets, make friends, and adapt to new cultures, helping them become more independent and open-minded. These skills also make them more attractive to employers who value people with global experience. Some might argue that studying abroad is expensive and time-consuming, and that students can gain similar skills through local programs or online projects. While these alternatives provide some exposure, they cannot match the real-life challenges and cultural immersion of living in another country. Overall, a semester abroad gives students lessons in personal growth, career readiness, and global understanding that cannot be gained anywhere else."
