Band 7

Living in a country where you have to speak a foreign language can cause serious social problems, as well as practical problems. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

#country #language
Learning a new
language
 which is not their mother tongue
language
 overseas is very difficult for some
people
, Some
people
 think that living out of the country where there were born and having to speak a foreign
language
 can lead them to a source of social
problems
. From my perspective, I agree with the topic,which I will discuss in
further
 paragraphs. In terms of living in another country, It is not easy for everyone, the main reason is
people
 have to learn how to speak as native speakers,
then
 they are able to communicate with their friends in school or the workplace.
Hence
, if they cannot speak clearly and do not understand what foreigners saying, they might not have friends.
This
 is because native speakers do not want to talk with those who are not speaking their
language
.
As a result
 of the problem,
people
 who struggle with foreign languages affect by sadness disease because they do not have friends in their social life. Another reason that leads to social
problems
 is foreigners will not welcome
people
 who are not extremely learning their
language
, in some countries, they really focus on seeking a person who is seemly interested and intends to learn.
Additionally
, native
people
 seek a foreign that has several potential and essential skills for working.
For example
, In Japan, the Japanese focus on an intensive work-life and barely welcome foreign workers, so if they cannot speak Japanese, they will not have a good work-life and have
problems
 with co-workers,
Moreover
, it seems that they insufficiently attempt the
language
. In summary, communicating overseas has many benefits for
people
 who intend to live abroad. So,
people
 should realise and understand what foreigners saying. I strongly agree that living abroad and speaking a foreign
language
 might be a cause of the
problems
.
