Most people think that the older you get, the harder it is to l  a new language. That is, they believe that c  learn more easily than the grown-ups. So at some points in our lives, maybe around age 12 or 13, we lose the ability to learn languages well. Is this the fact?
Is it t that children learn a foreign language more easily than the grown-ups? One report, on 2,000 Danish children studying Swedish, showed that the t learn more in less time than the younger children. Another report, on Americans learning Russian, showed the ability to learn increased as the age increased. T  are several possible explanations（解释）for these findings. F _ one thing, grown-ups know more about the world and are a  to understand meanings more easily than children. Moreover, grown-ups can use logical thinking to help themselves in the language learning. F , grown-ups have more self-discipline（自律） than children.
All in all, it s that the common idea that children are better language learners than adults may not be a f, but a myth.(谬论)
