A It is beneficial to learn two or more foreign languages as it makes one more marketable when looking for a job. Besides, it is easier to learn a new foreign language when one can already speak one. To enable students to study foreign languages, schools should offer additional language lessons at the expense of other subjects. B It is of no benefit to young people if they have to learn more than one foreign language as it is perfectly adequate to know one. Many students are more gifted in subject areas other than languages, and knowing English is sufficient for most purposes. In addition, more language lessons could only be provided at the expense of other subjects.
