1.根据English is one of the most important languages because so many people use it以及Many boys and girls are trying to do so可知，因为许多人用英语，所以英语是最重要的语言，很难说有多少人正在学它，但是很多男孩和女孩正在尝试着学它，故选D。

2.根据Many English children study French可知，很多因果孩子也学法语，因为法语也是很重要的语言，故选B。

3.根据If we learn a second language in the same way, it won’t be so difficult可知，表示“当我们还是小孩的时候，我们就能将我们自己的语言学得很好”，所以下文说“如果我们用相同的方法学第二外语，就不会有困难”，故选E。
