LEARNING ENLISH
Every year students in many countries learn English. Some of these students are young children. Others
are teenagers. Many are adults. Some learn at school, others study by themselves. A few learn English just
by hearing the language in films, on television, in the office, or among their friends. But not many are
lucky enough to do that. Most people must work hard to learn another language. Why do all these people
want to learn English? It's not difficult to answer this question. Many boys and girls learn English at
school because it is one of their subjects. Many adults learn English because it is useful for their work.
Other people learn English because they want to read newspapers or magazines in English.
