1.
Answer :
People often ask which language is the most difficult to learn, and it is not easy to
answer because there are many factors to take into consideration. Firstly, in a first
language, the differences are unimportant as people learn their mother
tongue naturally, so the question of how hard a language is to learn is only relevant
when learning a second language.

A native speaker of Spanish, for example, will find Portuguese much easier to learn
than a native speaker of Chinese, for example, because Portuguese is very similar to
Spanish, while Chinese is very different. So, the first language can affect learning a
second language. The greater the differences between the second language and our
first, the harder it will be for most people learn. Many people answer that Chinese is
the hardest language to learn, possibly influenced by the thought of learning the
Chinese writing system, and the pronouncement of Chinese does appear to be very
difficult for many foreign learners. However, for Japanese speakers, who already use
Chinese characters in their own language, learning writing will be less difficult than for
speakers of languages using the Roman alphabet.

The Golden Egg

Once upon a time, a farmer had a goose that laid a golden egg every day. The egg
provided enough money for the farmer and his wife for their day-to-day needs. The
farmer and his wife were happy for a long time. But one day, the farmer got an idea and
thought, “Why should I take just one egg a day? Why can’t I take all of them at once
and make a lot of money?”
 The foolish farmer’s wife also agreed and decided to cut the goose’s stomach for the
eggs. As soon as they killed the bird and opened the goose’s stomach, to find nothing
but guts and blood. The farmer, realizing his foolish mistake, cries over the lost
resource!
