　　1. Is learning a foreign language important?

　　Yes, definitely. Apart from the pragmatic benefits that a foreign language can provide, likecommunicative advantages or appreciating original literature and things like that, I think I've readan article claiming bilingual people have multiple other advantages over monolingual people. Theseinclude better memory, analytical skills, critical thinking and so on. And even if we put all theseaside, learning a foreign language brings you a lot of convenience when travelling abroad, I mean,at least you'll be able to bargain the price.

　　2. What benefits can a foreign language bring to one's career?

　　Well, in my opinion, mastering a foreign language is very useful as well as helpful to people'scareers. It's a good way to show one's ability, and also it can bring many benefits. For example,someone who can speak a foreign language will have a better opportunity of promotion. To bespecific , when you're able to communicate directly with foreign colleagues or partners, it's yourshowtime! It also leads to cost-saving, as the company wouldn't need to hire interpreters forinternational business. Besides, a language ability can also give you the chance to train or studyabroad. As the old saying goes: "success and opportunities are only given to those who are prepared well."机会是给有准备的人.

　　3. Do you think English will be the mainstream of the world in the future?

　　As a matter of fact, I tend to believe that English has already been the mainstream language of ourtime, knowledge-wise and communication-wise. As far as I know, the great majority of significantmodern scientific research is in English, and the most widely used language is also English. If youwant me to predict the future trend of popular languages, I'd say that English, in the foreseeablefuture, will retain its status. I mean, being Chinese, I hope that Mandarin could becomemainstream, but it seems too difficult to become that common.

　　4. When learning a foreign language, which part is easier?

　　Speaking or writing?I'd say writing, because when we speak, we need to have proper rhythm and flow, otherwise we'dsound very hesitative and unconfident, whereas in writing, you can pause every now and then, andthink about your wording. No one is going to notice your pauses, as they will only be reading thewords. This is just like comparing calling and texting - the latter is definitely easier for me.
