    1. The Importance English There can be no doubt that English is one of the world"s most widely used languages. People use a language in one of three ways: as a native language, as a second language, or as a foreign languge. English is spoken as a native language by over three handred million people in the United States, Britain, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, some caribbean countries and South Africa. As asecond language, English is often necessary for official business, education, information and other activities in many countries, it is one of the few "working" languages of the United Nations. It is said that English has become the language of international trade and transport. Most pilots in planes travelling from one country to another use it to talk with airports. All ships sailing on the oceans call for help by radio in it. It has been said that 60 percent of the world"s radio broad casts and 70 percent of the world"s mail uses English. At international sports meets, and international of scientists English is the language most commonly used and the most widely used. English has in fact become the language of international cooperation is science and technology. The most advanced resuits in space, nuclear and computer research are published in it. A scientist who speaks and writes English is in closer touch with the scientists in other countries than one who doesn"t. 英語的重要性 毫無疑問,英語是世界上使用最廣泛的語言之一。人們使用語言無非有三種情況:作為母語,作為第二語言,再就是作為一門外語。英語,作為母語,有3億多人在使用。他們分別在美國、英國、澳洲、紐西蘭、加拿大還有一些加勒比海國家及南非等。作為第二語言,英語在很多國家的官方事務、教育、資訊和其他活動中都是必不可少的。它是聯合國僅用的幾種工作語言之一。 人們說英語已經成為國際商貿和交通運輸語言。大部分飛行於各國間的飛行員使用英語來與飛機場聯絡。在大洋上航行的輪船都用英語發出求救訊號。據說世界上百分之六十的無線電廣播和百分之七十的郵遞業務用的是英語。在國際體育比賽中和國際科學家大會上,英語使用得最多也最為廣泛。 事實上,英語已成為國際科學技術合作的通用語。太空、核能及計算機方面最先進的研究成果都用英語來發表。會用英語交談和寫作的科學家比不會使用英語的科學家,與其他國家的同行們聯絡要密切得多。 2. The importance of English Everyone know English is important, but not everyone do take much attention on it. Recently I received a call from a HR company, they provide me a good opportunity to join a company which is top 500 global corporations (world"s top 500 companies), and the salry is not bad. It should be a very good chance for me. But I have not enough confidence on my English. If my oral is very good, I think I could catch it! Opportunity is for prepared head. So let"t make a little progress every day! 3. The importance of English No doubt. English is one of the world’s most widely used language. As a second language, English is often necessary for business, information and other activities in a great many countries. Today, there are more and more foreigners come to our country. English has, in fact, become the language of international cooperation in science and technology. Also English has come into our daily life. For example, we can see “ Made in China ” on our cups, “No smoking” in the park and so on. Generally speaking, English is much more important than any other language. It has become the global language. As a matter of fact, there are more than ten countries speak English, for example, Canada, Australia, England and so on. They’re all developed countries. They lead the world’s development. It’s the main reason that English can make so great effort. If we don’t have enough English knowledge, we would fall behind others. So we should spend much time on learning English. Specially, the oral English --- which is important in communicating with others.

    4.The

    Importance of English Frankly speaking, it is highly essential to know the language for communication. In general, the most popular language is English. In this computer age, English is the only language that any one can understand. So to say, it has become as an ideal language for expressing our feelings. First, we have to learn the language and then we have to gain fluency in the language. Unless we have the fluency in English language, it would not be possible to work with the computer. If you do not know English, then you would be in need of a translator to do the job. The first stage of learning this language would be very interesting. Once you are fluent with the alphabets, slowly you can learn many words. It would always be better to follow the method of reading first, then writing. You can use the picture books for this purpose. When you feel that you are familiar with the words, you can form sentences. This is the most interesting stage to learn. You just think of a sentence in your mother language, and try to write the same sentence in English. There could be some mistakes. But you should not bother about it. But, you have to write the same sentence using many different words till you are satisfied with your sentence. If you follow this way, very soon you can create sentences of your own. The next step is learning the grammar of the language. It is quite simple and very systematic compared with other languages. There are certain rules and regulations for each and every topic in grammar of this language. As long as you follow the rules and regulations, it would be a difficult task to make mistakes. You would gain that much guidance from the grammar. The presentation is the most important factor in communicating your feelings. So, naturally you must be sure while you are presenting. what you really wish to say. At any point, do not try to write or speak, beyond your capability. Even if it is a small and simple sentence, it would reach the receiver perfectly. This is our basic idea. Slowly, you can improve the standard of your language by practice. If you know to form the sentences, it is more than enough to go deep into the subject. Though this only an article about the importance of the English Language, we have to learn some of the basic points in presenting the sentences. There are three different types of sentences: They are, 1. Statements. 2. Interrogative sentence. 3. Imperative sentence. 4. Exclamatory sentence. To begin with, you must know the difference between a phrase and a sentence. Phrase is a group of words, which gives meaning, but not complete meaning. A sentence is a group of words, which makes a complete sense. 1. Statement: The sentence starting with nouns or pronouns is known as statement. Example: Rome is a church city. 2. Interrogative sentence: There are two types of interrogative sentences. a. “wh” type question. The sentences starting with the following fords are “wh” type question. What, When, Where, Who, How many, How long and etcetera. Example: Why did you come late? 2. What are you doing there? b. “yes or no” type question. For which sentences you get the reply either with yes or no they are called yes or no type question. Example: Is your father a doctor? The answer: No sir. 3. Imperative sentence: The sentence that gives command, request, and advice is known as Imperative sentence. Example: Walk on the pavement. 2. Eat regularly. 4. Exclamatory sentence: The sentence that expresses the sudden feelings or strong emotions is known as exclamatory sentence. Example: Alas! He is dead. 2. Oh! What a beautiful sight. When you are familiar with the above points, it would be very interesting to you to create many wonderful sentences. In general, the sentences are divided into three different kinds. They are, 1. Simple sentence. 2. Compound sentence. 3. Complex sentence. Though it very essential to have knowledge in handling the above sentences, we have to study them separately. In this essay, we are talking about the importance of the language. Many people make mistakes even with the usage of articles. It is a pity that even scholars may make mistakes. So, you should not get dejected with your style of writing. There is a lot of difference between these two. 1. a few 2. few When you want to say that you have friends, you have to say that,” I have a few friends.” When you want to say that you do not have friends, you have to say that, “I have few friends.” This is the opposite meaning of the word, many. Apart from these, there are many points to be discussed later. When you feel that you are already strong on the above subjects, you can develop your knowledge for betterment of your knowledge. As long as you educate yourself, you will come across many new things. There is no end for learning. All the above points are used in the normal usage of English. The literature value of the English Language is entirely different and should be dealt separately. 5. Using English effectively and making a good living have much in common. The study of English encompasses much more than the mechanics of grammar, punctuation and spelling. Through preparatory and advanced courses in literature and composition, students are afforded the opportunity to sharpen their critical reading and writing skills. The English curriculum develops the students" ability to communicate and also fosters a strong liberal arts background. Such a background gives students not only marketable communication skills, but also an understanding of the history and development of civilization. Careers in education have provided satisfying occupations for English majors in the past and will continue to do so. However, the ability to handle language effectively and clearly is valuable in any occupation the college graduate may pursue. In fact, the English major is invaluable preparation for many professional careers. Professional schools find that students who have specialized narrowly in their undergraduate educations often enter without broad general knowledge and without the skills of communication necessary for success in their chosen professions. Results of extended studies indicate that a major in English is particularly effective as pre-professional training for students going into law, business or government. 6. Importance and influence The English-born in New Zealand, 1861�C2001 Wolf Cub enrolment card The English in New Zealand and in the UK, 1861�C2001 Morris dancers Numbers The English who arrived in New Zealand were the largest group to settle in the country after 1800. Until the 1970s, the English consistently represented more than 40% of foreign-born people in New Zealand. Only in the 1860s did they constitute less than half of all arrivals from Great Britain and Ireland. Influence The English were therefore the most influential group in New Zealand. Their influence was magnified by other factors. They were often particularly well represented in the 19th century among the élite of the colony, and therefore had power. Among MPs in office between 1854 and 1890, they constituted almost half. English people were also among the earliest arrivals, comprising about 65% of all those from the United Kingdom who came before 1850. As first-comers they were in a position to establish patterns and traditions, particularly in the influential organised settlements of Wellington and Canterbury. So the English had a disproportionate influence in shaping the institutions of the new society. English culture and the British Empire It is difficult to isolate the impact of English people from the generic influence of English culture, which was dominant in the institutions and people of the British Empire. It is also difficult to exactly define ‘English culture’, or the characteristics of ‘Englishness’, since there was an extraordinary range of cultures from different regions and classes of English society. Because the large numbers of Scots and Irish who settled New Zealand had previously been subjects of the British Empire, they had already been influenced strongly by the English, most obviously in their use of the English language. Many of the institutions and habits established in New Zealand were English, more because they were the accepted order of the British Empire than because they were created by individual English people. Through the political and military power of the empire, the indigenous people of New Zealand, the Māori, were often encouraged to adopt English practices, such as dress and language. Less English than the UK Despite the importance of the English, their story in New Zealand needs to be qualified in two respects. First, although many English people came to New Zealand, their representation among all those from Britain and Ireland was less than it was back home. In other words, New Zealand has always been less English than the United Kingdom. And despite, or more likely because of, their large numbers the English, unlike other immigrant groups, did not tend to establish institutions exclusive to their own people. There were a few sporting ‘Albion’ clubs, and a Church of England was established, but the former quickly lost any English associations and the latter attracted other groups, especially Irish from the Church of Ireland. For the most part, the English established institutions which may have been English in origin, but were intended to cater for the whole society. The English assumed that English patterns were the correct way to do things. 7. Is English Skill That Important Recently, an exteremly hot discussion on whether English skills is that important on Sina.com.cn is brought to my attention. The original title is "Does English skills determine your fate?" The title sounds astonishing, doesn"t it? It seems from the result of the vote, more people (50% vs 20%) agree with statement. While on the discussion board (Chinese site), most of participations complained about English"s aggression to Chinese"s territory. I am also confused I am also confused about this for a very long time. English has been successfully deployed to many countries as an international language. I write in English everyday and sometimes speak English. I see so many people struggling to learn and improve English - including me. Yes. I am very confused about what English really means to everyone. Do we need mandarin, or Pu Tong Hua? Let"s take a look of the mandarin in China. Lots of my friends and I grew up in Luoyang and can only speak mandarin. We has lost the ability to speak the Hennan dialect, which has existed and been inherited for more than 1000 years. Mandarin is a great threat to the local language. It is good on the other hand, that no matter where I travel in China, there is no language difficulties - it is the official and most popular language. Surprisingly, I visited Tibetan area last month. The guide there can also speak fluent mandarin. This helped me a lot. However, I cannot communicate with the groom. This was quite bad. Many reports complain that the government is stealing the Tibet from the Tibet people by stealing their language. It can be true in some terms. It is not a matter of the government is stealing or not, it is just a matter of fact. Not only my home or Tibet, every city, every town and every village is facing the same problem. Maybe only Beijing and some Northeast province can survive. So my question is, should I insist to speak the local dialect? However, I also have friends who cannot speak mandarin. When they visit me in Shanghai, he cannot be understood by people there. This has brought him a lot of trouble. It is difficult for him to find a job or to find new friends - the reason is simple, nobody will learn his language just to understand him. Key learning From my experience and my friend"s, I learnt that a language is mainly for communication proposes. Sometimes there are major languages that are widely accepted, and the broad acceptance make it easier for people to communicate, it is beneficial to learn it. How about English When English is concerned, it is hard. Since the government enforces the adoption of mandarin and it is within the same country, people won"t push back that much. However, if this adoption span across the border of countries, it will hurt the feeling of the people. It is reported that the people and government of France is working every hard to push back the aggression of English to their language. No English, then what? Today, I spent my whole day meeting with the representatives from all over the world. We have people come from Europe (UK, France, Finland, Norway, German, etc... ), from Middle East (Israel...), from Africa, Latin America, from Asia (China, India, Korea, Japan....). Of cause, there is lot of people from U.S. The days session is conducted in English. I am surprised to find the English skills of European countries are very good, so does India. People from Asia tend to perform poorly in presentations. It is sad. This reminded me of the story of my friends. Just like that he cannot communicate with other people in China, we cannot easily communicate with others in the world. Yes. This is sad. Meanwhile, it is very interesting that when I have meeting with people from Korea and Japan. It is a tough meeting. It is 100% percent sure that we need to speak English. Although I can only understand 30% of what the Japanese says and 70% of what Korean says, it is good enough since I can understand about 0% if they speak their native language. It turns out when people using different languages meets, they need to find a common language that everyone can speak. English has been in place already. There is no doubt about it. Certainly, we are not that comfortable to learn, imitate and speak the language that people in other countries are using, we have too learn something. English is the most practical one. My brother once studied the Interlingua (or the International Language) but he abundant at last. Interlingua successfully solves the problem that it does not force anyone to speak the language of the other - it is very equal ?everyone need to learn something that is completely new. But not so many people want to learn. It is a joke now, let alone it is still not fair since it looks like something between English and Spanish. Not everyone needs English For my friends and for my groom, if they don"t need to travel, it is definitely unnecessary to learn mandarin. For anyone who don"t need to go outside the country or meet with others come into the country, they don"t need to learn English either. However, without English skills, one does limits the scope he can reach and will lose so many opportunities. I am still confused, but it is clear that English is important for me
