Im a student of English, French, Portuguese and Italian. I would also love to learn Chinese and German in the near future. My mother tongue is Spanish and I have a degree in Political Science. I love to learn new languages, because I think it broadens my mind. Even though I still have some difficulty with verb tenses, Im confident that with time and practice Ill cope with them.I believe learning a new language besides your mother tongue can be useful, especially in a world where distances are shortened and people from different countries communicate with each other more frequently.Learning a new language can be a good experience, but only if you keep in mind that nothing is obtained without some effort. In my opinion, the best way to learn a language is to read a lot. It doesnt matter what you read, but that you do it. Even if you dont understand everything, your reading comprehension skill will improve remarkably. Also, if possible, watch a lot of television in that language, or listen to CDs. Maybe at first you wont understand a word, but later youd catch on to the rhythm of the language.Good dictionaries are necessary, and books regarding vocabulary can be a plus. The Internet is also a useful tool.The language you choose to learn might seem a little difficult at first, or even totally strange, but youll get accustomed to it. Remember that the learning process is long, and that it never ends. However, it is also highly enjoyable.步骤3 Step 3. Text A & text-related exercises Questions:1.
