IV/ Read the passage carefully and then answer the questions below:

A good memory is a great help in learning a language. Everybody learns his own

language by remembering what he hears when he is a small child, and some children,

like boys and girls who live abroad with their parents, seem to lear two languages almost

as easily as one. In school, it isnt so easy to learn a second language because the pupils

have little time for it and they are very bury with other subjects as well.

The best way for most of us to remember things is to join them in our mind with

something which we know already or which we easily remember because we have a

picture of it in our mind. That is why it is better to learn words in sentences, not by

themselves, or to see, or do, or feel what a word means when we first use it.

Questions:

1. What is a great help in learning a language?

2. How do the children who live abroad learn two languages?
