II. Read a passage and answer the questions below. (1.0 pt)

I'm a 14-year-old girl who enjoys learning different languages. My first language is Vietnamese. When I was very small, my mother always told me stories in Vietnamese. I loved them so much that I started learning how to read in Vietnamese. I could read quite fluently when I was 5 years old. Mum encouraged me to read suitable books every day. I also started learning English at this age. I really enjoyed the fun and engaging English lessons with foreign teachers at my nursery school. At home, Mum began reading simple English stories to me. Mum and I also listened to English songs.

My primary school was a bilingual one. Besides the subjects taught in Vietnamese, we had 10 lessons of English, and another eight lessons of maths, science and IT in English every week. This was a really good way to learn the language because we could learn English naturally. When I entered junior secondary school, Mum encouraged me to learn another foreign language. I didn't want to go to the language centre, so I chose to learn Spanish with Duolingo. The lessons were fun and addictive because they were designed like games. Now I can speak Spanish and read stories in Spanish.

What is the girl's first language?

How were the English lessons at her nursery school?

How many English lessons per week did she have at primary school?

Did she learn Spanish with Duolingo?
