children. Others are teenagers. Many are adults. Some learn at school. Others study<br />
by themselves. A few learn English just by hearing the language in film, on<br />
television, in the office or among their friends. Most people must work hard to<br />
learn English.<br />
Why do these all people learn English? It is not difficult to answer this question.<br />
Many boys and girls learn English at school because it is one of their subjects.<br />
Many adults learn English because it is useful for their work. Teenagers often learn<br />
English for their higher studies because some of their books are in English at the<br />
college or university. Other people learn English because they want to read<br />
newspapers or magazines in English.<br />
