Who owns English
1 English is spoken by about 400 million people,
mostly in the US, the UK, Canada, Australia,
New Zealand and South Africa. In Ghana, India
and Singapore, English is used as a working
language, for example, between bosses and
secretaries, and between doctors and patients,
although there are other languages for
everyday use. In China and many other
countries, English is the most important foreign
language that children learn at school, because
when they grow up, it will be quite possible for
them to meet people from other countries. They
will need a common language to communicate
with each other. English is now used by nearly a
quarter of the world’s population, and
anywhere you go in the world, there is a good
chance that you will meet someone who
speaks English.
2 The reason why English is spoken
everywhere is that in the nineteenth century,
English became the language of world trade.
And in the twentieth century, the US spread
English to the world through newspapers,
television and films. It is now the common
language for international travel, science,
industry, and recently, information technology
and the Internet.
It is also important to know that English has
borrowed many words from other languages, for
example, “restaurant” from French, “zero” from
Arabic, “piano” from Italian, and “tofu” from
Chinese.
4 Will the importance of English last As
China continues to grow, many people think
that Chinese will become as common as English
by the middle of the twenty-first century. More
and more schools in Europe are teaching Chinese
as a foreign language, together with some
European languages. However, most people still
think that English will be used most around the
world, at least for the next twenty or thirty years.
So who owns English The answer is
everyone who speaks it - the British, the Indians
and the Chinese all help make it a rich language.
Even though we speak different types of English,
we are all part of an international club. We all
own English.
Read the passage and answer the questions.

The Future of Chinese
As we all know, there are many languages in the world, and different countries have different languages as their mother languages, such as Chinese, English, Russian and French. Chinese, which can be dated back to thousands of years ago, is widely spoken in the world, and will have a bright future, acting a more and more
Sample:
important role on the world stage. The reasons
are as follows.
First of all, Chinese characters are a kind of
writing in pictures, which are easy to learn and
memorize.
Second, compared with other languages,
Chinese has much emotional coloring,
including happiness, angriness, sadness and
pleasure. There are many words and
expressions for choices to express different
feelings.
Third, taking up one-fifth of the world's
population, China will have more and more
effects on the world in all kinds of fields, like
politics, economy and culture. China will
become the centre of the world. And certainly
Chinese, as the mother language of it, will be
used more and more often.
From a long run, Chinese will have a bright
future and have the opportunity to be the
world language.
