WHY LEARM ENGLISH?

               

      You are a student in your, possibly, last year in this school. You’re beautiful, intelligent and attractive. You have many friends. You have, or  you had, some girl/boyfriends.

                  It’s okay, but still you, student, can had question yourself ‘why learn English?” Why learn English, if I live in around Araranguá? Why learn English, if I work all day in a factory?  Who live in interior and work every day in tobacco or rice’s fields needs to learn a second language? Why learn English, if I  help my parents  plant corn and been? Why study, if I am a mechanic boy, or  if  I’m a seamstress or something of kind? Why learn this boring English if my gang don’t think this important for our life. Maybe nor I think that the school is important! Why learn another language, if the teachers still don’t speak the my  language? Why learn English if some of my friends are next of the world f the drugs? Why…… Why……Why…..

                  Actually, learn a second language is more important for students that you imagine. There are many reasons for  know the English language, for example: listen musics; have  better jobs, know another cultures…

                  However, you need to learn English, like that Mathematics, Portuguese, Biology, among another subjects, because YOU CAN EVERYTHING OF THE WORLD!

                  Because, in next year, you will can, if you want, to be in a university and you will dictate the rules of the society. Maybe you can too  don’t want to go to university. Maybe you will empregnancy in this year or, maybe, you only want to buy a motorcycle. But, even so, you can study more a few, because to learn is good and do us grow forever.

                  Welcome to new year  class of High School!
