English speaking country Now the Vieira children are adults and they sometimes travel to Spain to visit their family and friends But they can t communicate with them Unfortunately this is common When people move to new countries they often leave their own customs and mother language behind This is a mistake because there are many benefits to knowing more than one language One advantage of speaking more than one language is that you can communicate directly with more people around the world You do not have to depend on others to talk for you so you re more independent 独立 People who know only one language must use others to help them communicate Furthermore speaking a second language also allows people to experience other cultures and customs more effectively Local expressions vocabulary and even jokes can have a powerful effect on a person s understanding of another culture So knowing more than one language increases your knowledge of other cultures Finally having more multi language speakers improves relationships between countries If people from different countries can communicate well the world can become closer Countries will then have more respect for each other and better understand each other The benefits of knowing more than one language are clear In fact there are no disadvantages It is very sad that many people don t try to learn another language It is even worse

friends B communicate more independently C enter the university more easily D better understand nature and science 5 Based on the last paragraph which of the following is the worst A Forgetting one s
