问题     It is a disgrace that Ms. Chavez continuously spreads misinformation about bilingual education. Too many people accept the idea that children should 【S1】______ their home language and learn only in English. Such policies have put language minority children at a 【S2】______ and caused them a lot of harm.
    As a teacher, I have advocated for children and worked with them for ten years and believe that the learning of other languages, including English, is 【S3】______. While bilingual individuals may be more marketable, studies indicate that their thinking is more 【S4】______ than those of monolingual individuals. Being proficient in a language includes more than simply being able to 【S5】______ the language; it also means being able to read, write, and think 【S6】______ in it.
    The length of time it takes to become proficient in a second language depends on many factors including the 【S7】______ for well-developed concepts and language skills in the first language. This 【S8】______ often takes more than three years.
    Children in general are not cognitively 【S9】______ to think abstractly, or read and write proficiently in the language they grow up in until after six or seven years. Why does Ms. Chavez want less for language minority children?
    It is unfortunate and 【S10】______ that because of false rumors, such as those spread by Ms. Chavez, that language minority children get pushed into all English classes too early.
