Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, D on our answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions

In the explosion of the linguistic life cycle, it is apparent that it is much more difficult to learn a second language in adulthood than a first language in childhood. Most adults never completely master a foreign language, especially in Phonology – hence the ubiquitous foreign accent. Their development often “fossilizes” into permanent error patterns that no teaching or correction can undo. Of course, there are great individual differences, which depend on effort, attitudes, amount of exposure, quality of teaching and plain talent, but there seems to be a cap for the best adults in the best circumstances

Many explanations have been advanced for children’s superiority; they exploit Motherese (the simplified, repetitive conversation between parents and children), make errors unself-consciously, are more motivated to communicate, like to conform, are not set in their ways, and have not first language to interfere. But some of these accounts are unlikely, based on what is known about how language acquisition works. Recent evidence is calling these social and motivation explanations into doubt. Holding every other factor constant, a key factor stands out: sheer age

Systematic evidence comes from the psychologist Elissa Newport and her colleagues. They tested Korean and Chinese – born students at the University of Illinois who had spent a least ten years in the United States. The immigrants were give a list of 276 simple English sentences, half of them containing some grammatical error. The immigrants who came to the United States between the age of 3 and 7 performed identically to American – born students. Those who arrived between ages 8 and 15 did worse the latter they arrived, and those who arrived between 17 and 39 did the worst of all, and showed huge variability unrelated to their age of arrival

A. prize 

B. limit

   In the exploration of the linguistic life cycle, it is apparent that it is much more difficult to learn a second language in adulthood than a first language in childhood. Most adults never completely master foreign language, especially in phonology - hence the ubiquitous foreign accent.

Of course, there are great individual differences, which depend on effort, attitudes, amount of exposure, quality of teaching and plain talent, but there seems to be a cap for the best adults in the best circumstances.

A.  Chúng nói theo bố mẹ

D. Chúng không có một phương pháp cố định

“Many explanations have been advanced for children's superiority: they exploit Motherless (the simplified, repetitive conversation between parents and children), make errors oneself-consciously, are more motivated to communicate, like to conform, are not set in their ways, and have no first language to interfere.” But some of these accounts are unlikely, based on what is known about how language acquisition works.

Dich: Nhiều lời giải thích đã được đưa ra về khả năng vượt trội trong việc học ngôn ngữ của trẻ: chúng khai thác tiếng mẹ đẻ (qua những cuộc đối thoại đơn giản, lặp đi lặp lại giữa bố mẹ và con cái), mắc lỗi một cách vô thức, được khích lệ giao tiếp, muốn bắt chước, không bị gò bó theo cách của chúng, và không bị cản trở bởi ngôn ngữ đầu tiên. Nhưng một vài lời giải thích này có vẻ như không dựa trên cái mà mọi người biết về cách mà lĩnh hội một ngôn ngữ
