There are about fifteen hundred languages in the world。But only a few of them are very important．English is one of these．Many people use it，not only in England and the USA，but also in other parts of the world．About 200，000，000 people speak it as their own language．It is difficult to say how many peopie are learning it as a foreign language．Many millions of people are trying to do so．Is it easy or difficult to learn English?Different people may have different answers．Have you ever noticed ads(廣告)of this kind in the newspapers or magazines?“Learn English in six weeks，or give your money back…”，“easy and funny…”，“Our records and tapes help you master English in a month”．Of course，it never happened quite like this．
The only language that seems easy to learn is t11e mother tongue．We should remember that
we all learned our own language well when we were children．If we could 1ea m English in the
same way，it would not seem so difficult．Think of what a small child does．He 1istens lo what people say．He tries what he hears．
So，it is hard to say that learning English is easy．We must do a Iot ofpractice．And practice needs great effort and takes much time．Good teachers，records，tapes，books，and dictionaries will be helpful，but they cannot do the student’s work for him．
小題1:How many languages are very important in the world?
A．A few．B．Few．C．About 1，500．D．Many．
小題2:How does the writer like the ads in the newspapers or magazines?
A．He thinks the ads very expensive．

D．He believes“Learn English in six weeks，or give your money back．”
小題3:Which language is easy to learn?

小題1:A
小題2:C
小題3:D
