　　Many parents want their children to go abroad; even those who don't want their children to go abroad also want their kids to master at least one foreign language at school. Some educationalists believe that the abilities of acquiring languages depend on one's talents to some extent.This essay will explore the reasons for both sides and dig out the answers eventually.

　　For those who believe that students should master some languages besides their native language,there are two main explanations:Firstly, it is more or less an unstoppable trend for people to catch up with the last train of globalization, which makes learning language a must for “Modern” students.

　　Namely, a good command of foreign languages will be of big help in the future career.Secondly, the whole globe has already shrunk into a village because of the use of the Internet, so that people can easily communicate with friends from England or Canada in English or other languages, without which none of this would be possible on Facebook or YouTube.

　　However, even if all students should and would learn languages during their school hours, it would be inhumane to discourage them to do so only because they were less talented. From my own personal experience, many great linguists and language killers use hard work and patience instead of talent. The truth is that not all students should learn a second language in their teenage years. Languages should be a special profession like all other majors, but not a skill like driving or cooking. Thus, those who want to learn can learn it well; meanwhile, those who don't want to learn can avoid it well.

　　In conclusion, the language learning skill is and will be a vital standard for a student as well as for an employee. Nevertheless, not all people should spend time on a foreign language, even should,people can never judge the possibilities by their gift.

　　很多父母都希望自己的儿女出国，就算没有这样的想法也希望自己的儿女能够学习至少一门外语。有些教育学家认为从某种程度上孩子学习语言的能力依靠他们的天赋。本文将挖掘两方面的原因，并试图终找到答案。

　　对于那些认为孩子应该学习除了母语以外的语言的人，主要原因有两个：第一，对于所有想要赶上全球化末班车的人来说，或多或少这已经是个无法阻挡的趋势，这就使得“当代”学生必须学习外语。也就是，熟练掌握外语有助于将来就业。第二，由于网络的使用，全世界已经缩小成为一个村落。因此，人们可以很容易地使用英语或其他语言与来自英国或加拿大的朋友交流。如果没有语言，这些在Facebook和YouTube中都是不可能实现的。

　　然而，即使全世界的学生都应该并打算在学校学习语言，那么仅仅因为他们缺少天赋就不鼓励他们学习是不人道的。就我个人的经验而言，很多伟大的语言学家和语言高手之所以有所成就都是凭借其刻苦努力和毅力而不是天赋。事实上，并不是所有的学生都该在青少年期学习第二语言。语言本身像其他专业一样是一门特殊的行业，而并非像驾驶和烹调只是一种技能。因此，想学的人就能把它学好，同时，那些不想学的就完全可以避免。

　　总之，语言学习技能在现在和将来都是学生和员工的重要标准。然而，并非所有人都要在外语学习上花费时间，就算是必要的，人们也不能够用天赋去判断他们是否应该学习语言。
