题目内容
15.My name is Luca Lamoariello.People always ask me how I learned 11 languages.Here I would like to answer this question,taking English,French and Dutch (荷兰语) as examples.English
English was already a world language by the time I turned 10 in 1991.I struggled at first.Grammar explanations confused me,and the material was boring.Then my parents hired a private English tutor(家庭教师).She set me on the right path to learning and,most importantly,learning to love language.My aunt bought me The Hardy Boys for my birthday and after that there was no looking back.I started reading a lot of books in English.The combination of reading books,watching movies every day and talking to my teacher once a week for two years worked wonders.By the age of 15 I was fluent in English.
French
I started learning French around the same time as I started learning English and faced many of the same problems.That all changed when I found that I could watch French TV.I started watching two hours every day after dinner.By the age of 15 I was fluent in French.A few hours of television a day did more than the previous three years in middle school.
Dutch
I met Lotte,a Dutch girl,while camping in Northern Sardinia.She didn't speak much English and we both became frustrated at our inability to communicate,so I decided to learn Dutch.Lotte and I lost touch later,but the language stayed with me.People insisted that Dutch was a completely useless language-they all speak English-but I stuck to it.I read books and magazines that my friends would bring back from the Netherlands.I knew I would use the language sooner or later.Now I speak Dutch every day with my Dutch housemate.Speaking Dutch has become easy,effortless and interesting.
To those who ask me why I like learning so many languages I always reply:"I don't live to learn languages; I learn languages to live a better life".
