22、Many English learners have difficulty deciding what kind of English accent they want to have. A US accent, perhaps imitates(模仿) a Hollywood star speaker? Or maybe you want to imitate the British accent of a BBC news reader?

Young British people find the US accent attractive while young US people like a British accent. Especially when the person speaking is of the opposite sex(异性)! Let's listen to what they have to say.

Stephen Yang, 17, from London, UK

A US accent is cute, especially when a girl speaks it. Whether it's Jessia Alba speaking or the girl-next-door, the way US girls speak has a sweet tingle(感觉) that is really fashionable. A girl from Texas recently moved into our neighborhood. Her Texan twang(鼻音) had all the boys here on their knees within seconds of meeting her.

To me, accents reflect the attitudes, characteristics(特征) and lifestyles of the people.

Jennifer Sun, 16, from New Jersey, US

From watching English actors like Daniel Radcliffe, my friends and I have developed a soft spot(好感) for British men. Some are attracted to the qualities of English males, while others admire their sense of style.

Everyone, however, agrees that the most appealing aspect of an English man is his accent. For example, many American girls watch Harry Potter movies over and over again just to listen to the actors speak.

The English accent seems almost like art.

23、Knowing a foreign language is becoming more and more important at this time. Many people want to study the foreign language. There are two ways to learn a foreign language. The first is to stay in the homeland to study the foreign language. The second is to study in another place where the foreign language is spoken. Going to the native place to learn a language is the better choice. I will give reasons to support my opinion.

To begin with, going to the native country to learn a language offers us a good language environment. It will help us to learn the language faster. For example, everyone around me speaks the foreign language, and then I have to improve my self to talk with them. If I cannot talk with other people, I cannot even buy food to keep myself alive. This environment makes me want to develop myself to be able to talk with those people who speak the foreign language.

Secondly, I can make more friends who speak the foreign language as their native language. These friends can help me learn the language fast. In an English school, people come from different places and speak different languages. However, the only language that I can use to talk to my friends is the English language. Thus, I can talk with my friends without worrying about making mistakes. This helps me make fast progress in learning foreign languages.

In conclusion, I personally believe that learning languages in foreign countries is better than learning languages at home because I have to improve myself to communicate with other people. Besides, in a foreign country I can have a chance to speak the foreign language with my friends. Learning foreign languages in the native country is the better choice for me.

【1】The author thinks it is better for him to ________.

A．find someone to practice speaking the language

“I have a sincere respect for vegetarians, for they have actually done the work of thinking through the consequences of their eating decisions, something most of the rest of us have not done. My own examination of those consequences has led me to the conclusion that eating a small amount of meat from certain kinds of farms is something I can feel good about.”

―“Animal Welfare: FAQ & Useful

Links”, Michael Pollan
