English (forum) is the main international language in the world today

From the perspective of the whole world, the number of people who speak English has exceeded that of any language. English is the mother tongue of more than 1 countries, the official language of 45 countries is English, and one third of the world's population (more than two billion) speaks English. For example, in Japan, in addition to their native language-Japanese, English is their second language, and many high-level Japanese are proud to speak English!

Second, English is widely used

75% of TV programs in the world are in English, three quarters of emails are written in English, and computer keyboards are English keyboards. Any conference can be called an international conference, and its working language must be English, which is also the official working language of the United Nations.

We see that many official and government activities, documents and communication methods are in English.

English is also used as the common language in foreign trade, and English is used as the standard common language in foreign trade communication, international etiquette, correspondence, import and export documents, and bank documents.

Colleges and universities in most countries offer English language and literature majors. In China alone, more than 1 universities have English majors or English-related majors.

Computers and the Internet are also based on English, and the language of this industry is English.

In addition, it is closely related to English in the fields of medicine, architecture and literature.

Third, national development and international cooperation need English

China has indeed undergone earth-shaking changes in recent decades, with rapid development in all aspects. However, there is no doubt that we still lag behind the advanced western countries in many aspects of technology. In order to develop, make progress and master all kinds of technologies in a short time, we can't do research on our own, we must learn advanced technologies from developed countries, and the necessary prerequisite for learning is to master English, the world's common language for technical communication. Take computer program development as an example. Although the current computer operating system has a Chinese version, the application program is still written in English. Most of the high-tech materials are written in English. Although the development of India is not as good as that of China in many aspects, the software development industry in India is much more developed than that in China. An important reason for this gap is that Indian programmers generally have a higher level of English application than China programmers.

while learning from others' advanced technology and experience, we also need to cooperate with other countries in technology and economy. If you don't know English, you can't communicate with your partners, let alone cooperate. For example, a company has developed a world-class product, and if it can open the international market, the future will be bright. However, it happened that the company staff did not understand English, could not communicate well with foreign customers, and could not show the excellent performance of the products, which would be a heavy loss.

In addition to the above-mentioned importance, learning English well has the following advantages for students:

First, cultivating a good foundation of English listening, speaking, reading and writing from an early age is of great benefit to meet more complicated and difficult English learning in related enterprises;

Second, once we graduate, choosing English majors will greatly increase our chances of success. For example, apart from English majors, Related majors include: international economic law, international trade, business, medicine, international politics, history, archaeology, media, dance, finance, literature, teachers' college, mathematics, engineering, electronics, biotechnology, software and information technology, etc. Without a good English foundation, these professional fields.

Third, for some key schools or schools that have established friendly exchange relations with foreign countries, only those students with superior English can be admitted to the exchange activities of foreign friendly schools;

Fourth, English, as a compulsory key subject in senior high school entrance examination and college entrance examination (Weibo), has a direct impact on whether it has an advantage in the whole class and is admitted to a famous university.

Fifth, even a student with a tendency to be partial to a subject, if she has a skill in oral English, writing or translation, even if she is not admitted to a university in the future, she will be widely needed by the society, such as being engaged in translation, interpretation, English teacher, kindergarten teacher, foreign trade industry and so on.

Sixth, students with good language skills have higher IQ in their right brain, more sensitive reaction, faster and easier communication, and are more impressive. In a highly competitive society, they have more advantages and are more likely to win some opportunities.

Seventh, if you want to go abroad in the future, you won't spend a lot of money, time and energy to make up lessons in language, but you can get a one-stop access to foreign countries and get more opportunities for good education, which is more likely to attract the favor of foreign institutions and get unexpected results.

It can be seen that the application of English is everywhere, and we are already in an era and place where the opening is English. For us, English is just like three meals a day, which is indispensable for human beings. As long as the earth exists, English will last forever.

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = The most effective way to practice pronunciation is to imitate. Listen first and then imitate. Be sure to imitate more.

2. The standard pronunciation means learning how to speak. You can watch English movies or soap operas widely, which is mainly to learn everyday language. It's best to find a notebook to record simple words, and look through them if you have nothing to do.

3. The most important thing is to be bold and not shy. In the final analysis, oral English is for communication, and the other party can understand it to complete the task. Therefore, when talking to foreigners, don't pressure yourself, and don't be afraid of making a fool of yourself. The other person generally understands. Even if you don't understand, you can put it another way.

--------------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. = = =

there are nearly 4 million native speakers of English in the world, and almost one in ten people speaks English. People in Britain, America, Canada, Australia, Australia and New Zealand all speak English. About 2 countries in the world use English as an official language or a second language, with a population of about 8 million. In other words, almost one out of every five people in the world knows English at least to some extent. If you add the number of primary and secondary school students in the world who learn English, more people will know English.

② English is widely used. More than 7% of the mail in the world is written in English or addressed in English. 6% of the world's radio programs are conducted in English. Most of the international materials are published in English. English is the first common language in most international conferences, and it is also one of the official working languages of the United Nations. In a word, English is an important communication tool in international politics, military affairs, economy, science and technology, culture, trade, transportation and other fields.

With the continuous expansion of China's opening to the outside world, the continuous progress of science and technology, and the continuous improvement of its international status, it is urgent to train a large number of professionals who are proficient in foreign languages, so as to accelerate the process of China's "four modernizations" and make China play a greater and more active role in international affairs. Therefore, learning English well is of great practical significance and far-reaching historical significance for achieving the above goals.

We need to learn from other people's advanced technology

China has indeed undergone earth-shaking changes in recent decades, with rapid development in all aspects. However, there is no doubt that we still lag behind the advanced western countries in many aspects of technology. To develop, to make progress, and to master all kinds of technologies in a relatively short period of time, we can't do research by ourselves, but must learn from other people's advanced technologies. The necessary premise of learning is to master the world-wide technical communication language, our tool-English. Take computer program development as an example: although the current computer operating system has been published in Chinese, the application program is still written in English. Most of the high-tech materials are written in English. Although India is not as developed as China in many aspects, its software development industry is much more developed than China. One of the important reasons for this gap is that Indian programmers generally have a higher level of English application than China programmers.

cooperation with other countries in the world requires English

while learning from other countries' advanced technology and experience, we also need to cooperate with other countries in technology and economy. If you don't know English, you can't communicate with your partners, let alone cooperate. For example, a company has developed a world-class product, and if it can open the international market, the future will be bright. However, it happened that the company staff did not understand English, could not communicate well with foreign customers, and could not show the excellent performance of the products, which would be a heavy loss.

How to learn English well

Knowing the importance of learning English, how can we learn English well?

Learning according to the needs of practical application

Since we have discussed before that English is actually just a tool, before learning, we should first clearly understand our purpose of learning English. Is it a literary creation or a practical work? I believe that most people learn English because of their work needs, so English is just a tool for us to communicate with western countries and learn advanced western technology. In the past, China's English education focused on reading a large number of literary works, but in fact, this practice did more harm than good to English beginners. For example, an air hostess, all she needs is to verbally ask the guests what they need, or report the local weather and other simple information. Reading literary works can be said to be of no help to her work. Before we learn English, we should repeatedly emphasize English as a tool, and we should clearly know what we need to do with this tool. Decide the content and method of learning according to the specific needs. If you are a stewardess by profession, then obviously you don't need to understand Shakespeare's works.

English is Chinese, and Chinese is English

Many people always have a hint when learning English that English is a foreign language, and learning a foreign language can't be compared with their mother tongue. But in fact, this idea is wrong. No matter Chinese or English, it is just a language, just a tool for communication between people. As long as you can speak Chinese well, there is no reason why you can't speak English well. The reason why many people find it difficult to learn English well is only a matter of time and environment. Think that we have been using Chinese all the time since we were born, whether we are studying, working, playing, eating or even sleeping and dreaming. And the time we spend using English is relatively pitiful. If we learn to use English as we learn to use Chinese, I believe anyone with normal language skills can master English well.

Some people say that childhood is the best time to learn a language, and it is difficult to learn a new language after that. There is some truth in this statement, but it is not inevitable. Many tens of years old people can communicate fluently in English in just a few years after emigrating overseas, because they have to use English for food, clothing, housing and transportation. Some immigrants stay in Chinatown all their lives and only deal with Chinese people all their lives. Even if they live abroad for more than ten years, they may not be able to speak a few words of English. This shows that the key lies in long-term application.

Pay attention to cultivating a good sense of language

The English education system in China has always attached great importance to grammar learning. As a result, I learned grammar very well, but I really can't speak a few fluent English. Because when you speak, you can use various grammatical rules over and over in your mind to see what to say. How can you speak fluent English in this way? This emphasis on learning grammar in China has led many people to mistakenly think that there is a language only when there is grammar, but they don't know that it is in fact that there is a language, and after a long time, various usages are relatively fixed, and people have summarized these rules into grammar. In fact, most people in English-speaking countries don't know grammar, but they can still communicate with others in English well. People have natural language ability, which is a feeling, not a rule. This feeling is produced through long-term application. Only with this feeling can you express your thoughts in English fluently, and you don't need to waste time thinking about any grammar problems.
