Possible answer:
The future of Chinese
Chinese is a language with a long and important history. It has shaped other languages in Asia the way Latin shaped languages in the West. With this history, does Chinese have a surprising future
There are over one billion speakers of Chinese in the world—far more than any other language. It is the language of the country with the world’s largest population, and the country which will have the world’s largest economy soon. Chinese people are found studying and doing business all over the world.
Wherever you go nowadays, you will hear people speaking Chinese. In fact, Chinese is certain to be a world language. Why is this certain We must look at the economic and political power of China, which is growing every day. In the past, world languages have always been the languages of countries with powerful economies.
Latin, French, and, yes, English were important because of the power of the countries that spoke those languages.
Foreign interest in the Chinese language has grown very quickly together with the growth of the Chinese economy. It was once difficult to find a Chinese department in most Western universities. Now Chinese is one of the most important and popular languages to learn.
As China grows, more and more people will want to learn about Chinese language and culture, to take advantage of opportunities to work and study in China, and to do business with Chinese companies. For this reason, Chinese will one day become an international language.
