Given these circumstances, we focus on the analysis to explore the motivation of Chinese students studying in China for a long period of abatement reasons, from opposite direction motives, concerned about the abatement extent abatement reasons surrounding the cause of the discussion of the factors associated with the learners’ individual differences.
