摘要: 7. 8. 9. 10. E. Task Reading. In school all over the world boys and girls are learning foreign languages. 1 if we go to France, we ought to be able to speak French, and in Germany people will expect us to understand German. 2 English is one of the most important because so many people use it, not only in England and the USA, but in other parts of the world. About 200.000.000 people speak it as their own language, and another 200.000.000 use it as a second language. It is difficult to say how many people are learning it. Many millions of schoolboys and schoolgirls are trying to do so. 3 If we could learn a second language in the same way, it would not seem so difficult. Think of what a child does. It listens to what people say and it tries to imitate what it hears. When it wants something, it has to ask for it. 4 If people had to use a second language all the time, they would learn it quickly. 5 We imitate what we hear. In school, although you learn to read and write as well as to hear and speak, it is best to learn all new words through the ear. You can read them, spell them, and write them later. A. English children study French, which is also a very important language. An Englishman can easily find someone in almost all parts of the world who is able to talk to him in either English or French. B. Everybody knows his own language, but another one is very useful, especially when we travel to other countries. C. It is important to remember, also, that we learn our own language by hearing people speak it, not by seeing what they write. D. It is using the language, talking in it, and thinking in it all the time. E. How many languages are there in the world? These are about fifteen hundred, but many of them are not very important. F. Which is the best way to learn a language? We should remember that we all learnt our own language well when we were children.

  Every summer, a great many students travel to other countries looking for work and adventure. Most of the 1 are in seasonal work, mainly connected with tourism and 2 . The pay is usually poor, but most people work abroad for the 3 of travel. You can pick grapes in France, entertain kids on American summer camps, and, of course, there are 4 jobs in hotels and restaurants.

  But it is not easy now to find work.“ 5 you speak the language of the country well, there will be very few openings,”says Anthea Ellis, an adviser on 6 for students. If you work with a family in Italy, you'll have to speak Italian. When you wash dishes in a restaurant in Paris, the owner will expect you to speak 7 . British students only have a language advantage 8 jobs in the USA and Australia. 9 Enjoys the experience. Sarah James was employed to help forty American children in Europe. The two teachers with the children had never been 10 . One child lost his passport another became seriously ill and was 11 home; the whole group was thrown out of one hotel because of the 12 they made, and Sarah herself was robbed on her only 13 evening of the entire trip.“I did visit a lot of new places,”she says,“but it wasn't worth it. The pay was 14 and it really was a 24-hour a day job. The kids never slept!”

  “The trouble is, students except to have 15 time of it,”Anthea Ellis points out.“ 16 , they see it as a holiday. In practice 17 you have to work hard. At the same time, all vacation work is casual work. You'll have a job when the hotel, the restaurant, or the campsite is busy. 18 , you'll work if it's convenient for the company that employs you. But you have 19 employment rights. As soon as the holiday season 20 they'll get rid of you.”
