------------- Here is the script and the answers of the text of last week.

True or false?

1. My office requested that all employees know at least three languages. F
2. You can not choose the tongue. F
3. English is more like French than Chinese. V
4. Chinese seems difficult for three reasons. F
5. Our boss wants us to establish links with Chinese companies. V
6. It will be easier to do a language course in England. V
7. I live near Calais. F
8. Calais is the other side of the Channel Tunnel. V
9. I will learn Chinese. V
10. My girlfriend is Chinese. F

My office requires that all employees know at least two languages, but everyone the choice of language. Me, I hesitate between English and Chinese. If I choose English it may be easier to learn because the language looks more French than Chinese. Chinese seems difficult because of the characters and then there are the tones that seem too difficult to master. Yet we say that our leader is that we establish links with Chinese companies and in the future, it seems he wants also we have branches in China, it will be necessary that we speak Chinese. By cons if English remains as the language of commerce, perhaps we could use English. Finally, if I decide to learn English it will be easier to do a language course in England because I live in Calais, which is at the other end of the tunnel under the English Channel, then it will cost less to go that going to China. That's so I think I made my decision - I will learn Chinese. Why? I just remembered that my girlfriend is Chinese.
