With the Chinese language growing in popularity, the UK government plans to invest 10 million pounds to help more kids learn Chinese. Do you think it is necessary for UK pupils to learn Chinese?

Seneca (Canada) I studied French for 2 years in high school and German for 4 years in college and get good marks. I studied Chinese for about 4 months before moving to China. Any language, if you don’t use it, it’s easy to lose. I’ve forgotten the French I learnt except for a few phrases. I speak Chinese every day. My writing, reading and listening are quite good, but far from being fluent. I think nowadays, it’s almost necessary to learn Chinese.

Tony (the UK) Learning any language can be valuable, but it is not suitable for everyone. Chinese is a difficult language to learn, and the UK is not good for teaching foreign languages. But, China is a big and developing market for the UK business people. For them, Chinese is worth learning.

Bill (the USA) I don’t think Chinese will become as widely spoken all over the world as English is. To learn Chinese, you have to devote yourself to learning how to write and read it. It’s too difficult to learn. But in the future Chinese will become more popular, and that is a good thing.

1.Where does Tony come from?

A.China B.Canada C.The USA D.The UK

2.Seneca learnt German for____________.

A.2years B.4months C.4years D.6years

3.The underlined word “fluent” means____________ in Chinese.

A.糟糕的 B.流利的 C.完美的 D.成熟的

4.What’s the best title for the passage?

A.How to learn Chinese well B.Chinese will be the first language in the world

C.Do you like Chinese? D.Is it necessary to learn Chinese?
