English — for present and future

The great German poet Goethe once said, “He, who knows no foreign language, does not know his own one”.

Learning foreign languages is especially important nowadays. Every year thousand of people go to different countries as tourists, to work or to study. They can’t go without knowing the language of the country they are going to. A modern engineer or even a worker cannot work with an imported instrument or a machine if he isn't able to read the instruction how to do that. A scientist, a historian, an expert, a diplomat, a pilot, a stewardess need foreign languages in their work. So English is the language of international communication, it’s the world language of progressive science and technology, trade and cultural relations, commerce and business, aviation, shipping and sport. It’s also the major language of diplomacy. In fact every visitor should be able to find his own way about in an English-speaking community without interpreters.

English is the official language of the UK, the USA, Australia, Canada and New Zealand. Besides, a lot of other people speak English in Japan, India, China, Africa and many other countries. There is a proverb “A new language — a new world”. So English is worth studying.
