Read the following passage carefully and encircle the
correct answer
Most Language teachers will tell you that the only reasons
for learning a foreign language are that it will help you
get a job or that you will not be able to go to college
without it .
There are ,however other reasons that are more attractive
,more human and therefore more likely to be successful in
persuading students to learn.
A foreign language is not simply a tool for getting a job or
a place at a college .It is , after all , spoken and written by
millions of other human beings expressing their deepest
thoughts and emotions ; Every language has its own
literature , written by men and women with talent ,
intelligence and imagination .Imagine the thousands and
thousands of books that a new language gives you access
to ! You can also make personal contact with all the
speakers of the language , getting to know and possibly
becoming friends with people from all walks of life and
from a completely different cultural and linguistic
background to your own. Learning a foreign language ,
then, is a journey of discovery into a new world .
This process need never stop .You should not learn a
language merely to achieve an immediate professional or
academic aim in your youth and then give it up .Carry on
learning and you will find it an experience that will enrich
the rest of your life.
