A good memory helps one learn a language well. Everybody learns his own language when he is a small child. He hears the sounds，remembers them and then he learns to speak. Some children are living their parents in foreign countries. They can learn two languages easily because they hear，remember and speak the two languages every day. In school it is not easy to learn a foreign language because the students have little time for it and they have to learn other subjects，too.

Our memories can get better and better if we do more and more exercise. Do you want to learn a foreign language well? if so，you must do a lot of listening and speaking.
