Why is the Native Language Learnt So Well How does it happen that children learn their mother tongue so well? When we compare them with adults learning a foreign language, we often find this interesting fact. A little child without knowledge or experience often succeeds in a complete mastery of the language. A grown-up person with fully developed mental powers, in most case, may end up with a faulty and inexact command. What accounts for this difference? Then the child has, as it were, private lessons all the year round, while an adult language-student has each week a limited number of hours, which he generally shares with others. The child has another advantage: he hears the language in all possible situations, always accompanied by the right kind of gestures and facial expressions. Here there is nothing unnatural, such as is often found in language lessons in schools, when one talks about ice and snow in June or scorching heat in January. And what a child hears is generally what immediately interests him. Again and again, when his attempts at speech are successful, his desires are understood and fulfilled. 1. Compared with adults learning a foreign language, children learn their native language with ease. 2. Adults knowledge and mental powers hinder their complete mastery of a foreign language. 3. The reason why children learn their mother tongue so well lies solely in their environment of learning. 4. Plenty of practice in listening during the first years of life partly ensures childrens success of learning their mother tongue. 5. A child learning his native language has the advantage of having private lessons all the year round. 6. Gestures and facial expressions may assist a child in mastering his native language. 7. So far as language teaching is concerned, the teachers close personal relationship with the student is more important than the professional language teaching training he has received. 答案: ACBABAC
