What are the British like when they learn languages?

       is said that the British are the worst language learners in Europe —62 percent of them can’t speak      other language except their own!      38 percent of them speak at least one foreign language, only18 percent speak two.

studying languages at school?

The government is now looking at different ways to      language learning. One idea is to start much      and introduce foreign languages when kids are five.      idea is to give school children more choice—they can choose to study their favorite language.

It may be difficult to     people’s attitude(态度) to learning languages but the government has decided to have a try!
