III. Read the passage and choose the best answer.
English is my mother tongue. Besides, I can speak French and Spanish. I studied the two languages when
I was at highschool. Now, I am still learning Spanish at the University. As for me, mastering a foreign
language is not easy. After studying a language, practice is very necessary and useful. Travelling to the
country where the target language is spoken is very helpful, but if you can not speak the language well
enough you will certainly have troubles. I also frequently go to the movies, watch television, listen to the
radio in the language I am trying to learn. Reading is another good way to learn. Books are good, but I
personally think newspapers and magazines are better. However, getting some knowledge of the language
is the most important thing. Grammar and vocabulary should be mastered first.
