Studying English at school
It is necessary to learn foreign languages. That's why pupils have got such subject as a foreign language at school. Everybody knows his own language, but it is useful to know foreign languages. I learn English, because I understand that I can use it. For example, if I go to England I'll be able to speak English too. English is used not only in England, but also in other countries.
Reading foreign literature
I learn English because I want to read foreign literature in the original. I know and like such English and American writers as Charles Dickens, Mark Twain, Agatha Christie and others. I understand that I must learn English. If I know English well, I'll be able to go to the library and take books by English and American writers in the original.I like to read books. And I like to read newspapers, too. If I know, for example, English I'll be able to read English newspapers and magazines.
Easy to travell
I like to travel. But it is difficult to visit countries, when you don't know the language of these countries. If I know the language of the country, where I am going to, it will be easy do travel there. If I want to ask something, I can do it in English.
