　　范文：

Most people think that the older you get, the harder it is to learn a new language. This is because they believe that children learn languages more easily and efficiently than adults. Thus, at some point in our lives, maybe around ages 12 or 13, we lose the ability to learn languages well. Is it true that children learn a foreign language more efficiently than adults? It may not necessarily be the case. In fact, the ability to learn language increases as the age increases, from childhood to adulthood.

There are several possible explanations for these findings. For one thing, adults know more about the world and, therefore, are able to understand things more easily than children. Moreover, adults can use logical thinking to help them see patterns in the language. Finally, adults have more self discipline than children.

All in all, the common conception that children are better language learners than adults may not necessarily be true. Hopefully, this would encourage adult learners to become successful language learners, no matter what new languages they want to learn.
