The Sweetest Sight
I was in the most beautiful city in the world, yet I only wanted home. It was
an amazing week for my husband and me—the trip of a lifetime. Months ago,

Students learn their lessons in class. In class teachers teach them. Students
sit in the classroom listening to the teacher. This is a way of learning. Is this the
only way for students to learn anything?Of course not. There is another way to
learn. That is, students can teach themselves. For example, if you cannot
remember something when you are doing your homework, you can look at your
book to find the answer. This is a way to teach yourself. And it is not a difficult
thing. We can do this in any place and at any time.
How do you teach yourself?The first thing you must do is reading. Read
something you are interested in, or you have to read. The second is that you must
ask yourself questions. The questions are something you don't understand, or you
want to know more about. You can write down these questions. A clever student
is usually good at asking questions. The third is to answer the questions by
thinking hard, by reading the text or other books, and sometimes by asking other
people. This is the way of teaching yourself. And you must do this all by yourself.
If you keep doing like this for a long time, you are sure to succeed in your study.

As an Englishman, I can speak three languages—English, German and
French, so do you think the British people are very good language learners? The
fact is that they aren't.
Some statistics(数据)from the survey done by the European Commission(欧盟
委员会)showed that 62% of the British people only speak English. 38% speak at
least one foreign language and 18% speak two or more. Compared with the
British people, 56% of the people in other European countries speak at least one
foreign language and 28% speak two or more. From this you can see that the
British people are famous for not speaking foreign languages and that they are
not good language learners in Europe.
And the survey also showed that English is the most widely-spoken foreign
language. Many European people can have a conversation in English. That's why
my people don't think it is necessary to learn a foreign language.
In Britain, students are not required to learn a foreign language. That means
learning a foreign language is only an option at school. In UK schools it is
common for children to start learning a foreign language at 11 and many of them
give it up at 14. So why don't students continue learning foreign languages at
school? Because they think it is more difficult to get good marks in languages
than in other subjects such as science or history.
To solve this situation, the British government is looking for different ways to
improve language learning at school. One way is to start learning it at a much
younger age. Another way is to give school children more choices.Changing the
British attitude(态度)to learning foreign languages may be a hard task but the
government decides to try!
1.Which country does the writer come from?
A.America. B.China. C.Britain. D.Egypt.
2.Which of the following about the British people is true?
A.They are good language learners.
B.62% of them speak two or more languages.
C.They are famous for speaking foreign languages.
D.More than half of them only speak English.
3.According to the passage, students in Britain prefer to learn _____ .
A.science or German B.history or German
C.science or history D.German or French
4.In Paragraph 4,“an option”means_____ .
A.a choice B.a game C.a mistake D.a conversation
5.What is the best title of the passage?
A.Speaking English
B.Foreign Language Learning in the UK
C.Schools in the UK
D.Young English Learners
