“The important thing is that parents should face their fears, and not turn their fears into pressure （压力） on their children. Besides, it’s not good to compare（比较） your children with other kids as that can hurt their pride deeply” said Wang, a parenting expert （专家）in Beijing.

27、With the Chinese language growing in popularity, the UK government plans to invest 10 million pounds to help more kids learn Chinese. Do you think it is necessary for UK pupils to learn Chinese?

Seneca (Canada)

I studied French for 2 years in high school, and German for 4 years in college and got good marks. I studied Chinese for about 4 months before moving to China. Any language, if you don’t use it, it will be easy to lose. I’ve forgotten the French I learned except for a few phrases. I speak Chinese every day. My writing, reading and listening are quite good, but far from fluent. I think nowadays, it’s almost necessary to learn Chinese.

Tony (the UK)

Learning any language can be valuable, but it is not suitable for everyone, Chinese is a difficult language to learn and teachers in the UK are not good at teaching foreign languages. However, China is a big and developing market for English business people. For them, Chinese is worth learning.

Bill (the US)

I don’t think Chinese will become as widely spoken throughout the world as English. To learn Chinese, you have to devote yourself to learning how to write and read it. It’s too difficult to learn. But in the future Chinese will become more popular, and that is a good thing.
