7、There are about fifteen hundred languages in the world．But  1  a few of them are very  2 ．English is one of these．Many, many people use it, not only in England and the USA, but in other parts of the world．About 200 million people speak it as their own language．It is difficult to say how many people are learning it as a  3  language．Millions of people are trying to do so.

Is  4  easy or difficult to learn English? Different people may have different  5 ．Have you ever  6  the ads of this kind in the newspapers or magazines?
