Exploring languages around the world
To some students, it seems that the only foreign language to learn is
English. There are, however, nearly 7,000 languages in the world. After
Chinese, the language with the most native language speakers isn't
English — it's Spanish! Learning English is very useful, but it is wise to
learn at least one other foreign language, if possible.
There are many reasons why people learn a foreign language. Many
students choose to study one of the languages that are spoken at the UN.
As they think it means better job chances in the future. The UN has six
official languages: Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian, and
Spanish. They are spoken by around 2.8 billion people as their native or
second languages.
Some students, though, choose to study a language because of
family or friends. One American girl chose to learn Danish because her
grandparents were from Denmark. When she was little, her grandpa used
to read letters to her in Danish from their relatives in Denmark. Another
young lady started learning French because she had several friends from
African countries where French is spoken.
What do you think? Which other language would you choose to
study and why?
Ⅱ.Listen to the speech again and answer the questions.
1．What is the main topic of this speech?
2．How many languages are there in the world?
3．How many billion people speak the UN's official as their native or
second language?
4．What is the attitude of the speaker towards foreign language
learning?
