3. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? "Children should begin studying a foreign language as soon as they start school".

In my opinion, children should begin studying a foreign language as soon as they start school. Everybody knows that it is much easier to learn foreign languages when you are young. Children’s minds are ready to learn many new things. When children learn foreign languages, they learn them as well as their native language. If they wait until they are older to study a language, it is much harder to become fluent.

Many studies have shown that learning a language helps the child’s mind to develop. Children who learn foreign languages also do better in other subjects. This isn't so true for older students.

Moreover, learning foreign languages can help children expand their knowledge of theworld. If they learn a foreign language, they will be interested in the people who speak that language. They want to know about their country and customs. They want to understand them instead of becoming afraid of them because they are different.

To sum up, learning a foreign language has many advantages for everybody. It contributes to our intellectual development and our understanding of the world. The younger a language student is, the more advantages he or she gets from learning the language. So, the best time for a child to start studying a foreign language is when he or she starts school.
