While many people hold the opinion that people should learn foreign languages only for travelling and working, other’s ideas imply about many reasons to study foreign languages besides above reasons. Although foreign languages support overseas travel and work significantly, I am of the opinion that other purposes should also be taken into consideration.
On the one hand, the benefits of working and travelling that learning foreign languages bring to people are undeniable. Firstly, working abroad with a high level of foreign languages is certain to be more confident in communication among employers and co-workers. This results in a more effective contact among work environment. Furthermore, as regards overseas travel, foreign languages are necessary. When a visitor travels in other countries, languages impact to his or her activities dramatically. For instance, he or she is possible to contact domestic people/indigenous inhabitants or enjoy local activities easily. Besides, visitors are likely to avoid accidents such as going astray or cheating actions by the excellent level of foreign languages.
On the other hand, there are many reasons in order to learn foreign languages. One of the reasons which can be indicated is that learning foreign languages can help the brain to work more effectively. Studying and speaking more than one language are certain to improve thinking the speed of brain because using many kinds of languages can contribute to the quick of reflecting and solving information of brain. Moreover, studying foreign languages is also an ideal method to research other nations’ culture. The culture of a country is usually contained in the languages. Thus, one of the effective ways to learn about a culture is learning languages of the country which own the culture.
In conclusion, while overseas travel and work are suitable reasons to learn foreign languages, it seems to me that studying foreign languages can come from some other reasons which are also suitable for personal purposes.
- Children s education is expensive In some countries the governments pay some or all of the costs Do the advantages outweigh its disadvantages 84
- The pie charts show the main reasons for migration to and from the UK in 2007 93
- people today can use internet to learn the life and culture of another country so it cannot be necessary to travel to oter country agree or disagree 78
- Some people prefer to spend their lives doing the same things and avoiding change Other however think that change is always a good thing Discuss both these views and give your own opinion 89
- Do you agree that the advantages cars bring outweigh the disadvantages 61
