Eighty-four per cent of US people are monolingual (speakers of only one language). This leaves a small number who _18_ to speak two or more languages. No matter how proud people are of their cultural roots, to speak anything _19_ English is a marker of difference here.

With all of the benefits, why do we not show more _33_ for learning other languages. Parents and teachers _34_ in bilingual education say it is pressure from friends at school, general_ 35_ to other languages in English-speaking countries, and problems in the school system that are to blame.16.
