Read the text and answer the questions.

 Many people learn a foreign language at school and some people learn to speak two or even three foreign languages well. But there are not many people in the world like George Campbell.

Mr Campbell, who died in 2004 at the age of 92, could speak and write 44 languages, including Russian, Hungarian, Persian and some North American Indian languages.

 When George Campbell was a young child, a dog attacked him and this affected his speech. He was not able to speak properly so the teachers at his junior school in Scotland thought he was a slow student and didn't pay him much attention.

 He started learning languages from books when he was still very young. Before he left junior school he had taught himself Spanish and Italian. He then learnt French and German at secondary school.

During the Second World War he started working for the BBC World Service as a language supervisor and he continued working for the BBC until he retired in 1974. Before he left the BBC he had been the director of the Romanian section for several years.

 After he retired, he taught himself Chinese, Basque and several other languages. He also translated a number of books from Russian, German, Arabic and Polish. In the 1980s he appeared in the Guinness World Records as one of the world's greatest linguists.

1 Name four languages George Campbell could speak.

2 What languages did he learn while he was at junior school?

3 When did he start working for the BBC?

4 When did he retire?

5 How old was he when he died?
