Language experts, however, will tell you that youre never too old to learn a new language. As you get older, it can be more difficult to learn a new language, though.Children and adults learn new languages in different ways. For children, language is their life. They study for thousands of hours every year, because they need to learn language to become part of their communities. Adults, on the other hand, are already part of a language community. Learning a new language means becoming part of another language community, and adults rarely get the chance to practice as much as young children do.Moreover, children learning a new language are expected to make mistakes. This gives them freedom when learning to be daring and confident. Adults, however, often feel pressured to be perfect when learning a new language. This can discourage many people and make it even harder to learn a new language.Research has shown that children who learn a new language when they are very young will not be likely to have aforeignaccent when speaking a different language.Some scientists also believe that it can take up to 10，000 hours of study to master a new languageThis can be difficult for adults to achieve,but young children can accumulate those hours over several years as they grow upWhen young children learn a new language, they come to see various languages as a “normal” part of society. This mindset(思维模式)helps them embrace learning a new language without feeling like theyre doing something unusual or “too hard”.So if you want to learn a new language, go for it! Its never too late to learn a new language. If youre older, it may take more work, but it can be done. If youre a young child, though, now is the time to step out and learn a new language!27.By “Language is their life”, the author means that children _.A. cant live without languageB. use language from time to timeC. practice a new language a lotD. are good at speaking language.28.What may make it hard for the old people to learn a new language?A.
