Why learning English is important?
Good morning ! Boys and girls,
I am very very glad to go on the stage and tell something to you. I am so proud of my bravery. Because as you all know my English is so poor , especially my English pronunciation . But I still want to say something . Because I know , English is very important . I should practise myself, the more the better.
As we all know, English is an international language, and it could be used all over the world. However, Spanish is the language that most people speak in the world, but why is English still the language that can be used in any country, any city, or even any town? So, the topic I'm going to discuss today is "Why learning English is important?”
First of all, let's take a look at a few countries that use English as a second language, for instance, Malaysia and Japan. All students in these countries have to take English classes, just like they have to learn Mandarin, Malaysian and Japanese. This shows how much their education stresses the importance of the English language. In fact, most other countries in the world have the same point of view. This is also the reason why English is useful tool for traveling. Last year a friend of mine went to Japan, and since she doesn't speak Japanese, she had to communicate with the native people in English. From the above instance we know, English is very important when you're in another country, and don't know how to speak their native language.
Well , we live Shanghai’s New District . the development and opening of Shanghai’s New District has become the symbol of china’s reform and opening , and a focus of world attention in the 1900’s . There are many foreigners coming form different countries in this New District . If you want to have good influence on them , you should speak English fluently , if you can . However , if your English is very poor , then you certainly can not do it easily . Even your appearance may reflect on the appearance of the whole people. So being a modern person , all of us should have a good everyday English .
Let's take a recreational viewpoint. Things like books, magazines, TV, and radio programs have already become a part of many people's daily life. Many people enjoy reading, watching and listening to English books, TV shows and talk shows, and I of course am no exception. For example, I'm quite interested in reading William Shakespeare's famous novel "Romeo and Juliet”. I never thought that English could be used so beautifully without making it a poem. And you know , now Harry Potter is very popular with our class . Certainly , I like Harry Potter , too . I know there is much interesting information about it on the net. Maybe you have gone to the homepages about Harry Potter . They are the official websites. Harry Potter on the internet . There are many interesting games and stories in it . but it’s in English . You know I am not good at English , so I can’t understand these games well . I can’t play the games well , either . because the introductions are also written in English ,I can’t understand them , either . Think how poor I am !
Well, in an age of fast communication, almost every family has a computer , especially as a student of Jianping Middel School, every one of us has a computer and all of them connect to Internet. I myself have found English very important when I'm on the net, because large proportions of the homepages I find are in English. When I need to fine some data for my homework, the information I find on the Internet is often in English. Therefore to be an intellectual person, English is definitely the language you should know.
Boys and girls, China has step up its process of globalization , so we must shoulder responsibilities to the worlds environment, peace and stability . We must learn more knowledge. Especially you must learn English well in order to communicate with others more easily. And you’ll also understand the culture of the United States of America if you know English .Then , you will get more fresh and new ideas.
Let's take a final look at a practical viewpoint , if you want to be a member of Qinghua Uniwersity or Beijing Universdity or Fudan University and so on, then you must make a good mark in the National Matriculation English Text . In order to make a good mark , you should be good at all the subjects . Of course , you should study English very diligently .
Well, if you're looking for a job that can provide you a good position and a higher salary, understanding English often makes it a lot easier. In many big companies, you'll have a lot of opportunities to establish contact with foreigners, you may have a lot of appointments or meetings with them. It can't be denied that English is very important if you want to make a good living in the future.
English’s has too many advantages, and it is hard for me to show all . For example, English can make you cleverer and it can also make you more charming and so on.
In a word ,English is a very important language, no matter what you do or where you go , then have you known that the importance to learning English well ? In any case ,I have decided I will study my English more diligently than before , and I hope you will do as I do , too !
We Finally, I wish you success in the near future !
