2.Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Children should begin learning a foreign language as soon as they start school. Use specific reasons and examples to support your position. I support that children can learn a foreign language as soon as they start school. We now live in a global village. It becomes more and more important that people have to perceive and receive information internationally. Considering the social atmosphere, it is a high time to encourage children to learn a foreign language. Although someone argues that learning a foreign language too early might reduce the time to learn basic subjects and increase the pressure of learning, I think there would be no question if parents do some homework. The ways of teaching do impact the desire to learn for children. However, children have few loads to learn basic academic subjects when they start school. Moreover, now many of foreign language centers have complete systems for children to create an environment of speaking and learning naturally. Children will expose to educational opportunities more easily in the centers than just at home. Therefore, if parents choose a good learning center for their children, the children not only have no pressure, but more motivations to learn another language in early age. In addition, personal language ability has become a key successful factor to a better future. A competitive person has to communicate and interact with others from different countries to catch the trend of the world. Therefore, children should be familiar to foreign world to own international views, and language is a tool to access to the global village. Studies shows that children enrolled high-quality foreign language education would develop social advantages over the children just raised by their parents. Consequently, I agree that it is better for children to learn a foreign language early in the school. To sum up, learning a foreign language for children is good for them as soon as they start school. Although there are some problems, such as reducing time to learning basic knowledge, it do brings more benefits than harms. As long as the way of teaching is proper, children will have more capability to better future. 最近我只要先想再限時打 就一定打不完耶....>.<: 今天30分鐘內只打了248個字.....囧rz --
