一小段英语翻译
Is it easy or difficult to learn English? Different people may have different answers. Have you ever read ads（广告）of this kind in the newspapers and magazines? “Learn English well in six weeks or give your money back --- ”, “Easy and funny. Our books and tapes help you learn your English well in a month. From the first day your spoken English will be wonderful. Just spend --- ” Of course, it never happens quite like that.
Think of what a small child does. He listens to what people say. He tries to repeat what he hears. When he wants something, he has to ask for it. He is using the language, speaking in it all the time. Good teadchers, tapes, books and dictionaries will help, but they can’t do the teachers' work for him.
请重点翻译“He listens to what people say. He tries to repeat what he hears. When he wants something, he has to ask for it.”
ask for在此怎么翻译？

答案

学英语是容易还是困难?不同的人可能有不同的回答.你是是否在报纸杂志上看过这种类型的广告?“保证6星期学好英语,否则退回费用”“简单,有趣.我们的教科书和录音带能够帮你在1个月里学好英语.从第一天起你的英语口语将会变得很不错.这仅需花费--”当然,事实上并非像广告声称的那样美好.
想象一下一个小孩做了什么.他听人们在讲什么.他努力地去复述他听到的东西.当他需要一些东西的时候,他必须开口请求他人.他一直使用语言,一直用语言去表达.好的老师,录音带,书本和字典会有帮助,但它们不能做到老师的工作.（这句话有问题 teadchers?）
ask for 字面翻译就是请求,也包含着询问,开口的隐含意思,但是把所有东西都写出来,句子就不好看了.
