These days，it is easier for us to travel to other countries than ever before．However，there is a big difficulty that most of us 1 when we meet people in other countries—we cannot communicate with them．There are 2 where English is still not spoken，though it is the most widely known language．So，wouldn't it be 3 if there was one language that could be understood by anyone anywhere in the world?

Esperanto that was created in 1887 may be the world's 4 truly international language．In fact，although 5 artificial（人造的）languages have been already created，only Esperanto has had much success．Its learners say that it is about four times 6 to learn than other languages．Spelling and pronunciation are both easy，too．For example，it does not have silent __7_ like the “h” in “honest”．If you 8 a word，you can spell it without any difficulty．The grammar is also as simple as possible：only sixteen basic 9 ，no irregular verbs（不规则动词），only six verb endings．

In short，Esperanto should be attractive（有吸引力的）as a language to learn， 10 there is a problem：how many people have met anyone who can really speak it? Anyway，we hope that some day one language can be mastered easily by anyone．
