There is a hot topic in China these days:English may be canceled in college entrance exam.
It has been determined that English is not as important as it used to be in Entrance.Many provinces in China has proposed the policy to low the percentage English takes in the Entrance.Some of them even tends to cancel it.
For me,it's really hard to accept the policy.Cos I think nowadays,English is of great importance everywhere.It's an international language.I just cannot image how can Chinese next generation live without English.They cannot communicate with foreigners,they cannot keep up with the pace of globalization.How can China develop without English?
Reform is necessary for Entrance,but China shouldn't kill English completely.Do you have any ideas about it?
"…A fellow in China has said the Chinese government has just stopped requiring Chinese students to learn English…"
I feel ambivalent and neither is positive.If they've truly rejected english for educational purposes,then there is nothing that can be done.If multi-linguality is not an educational priority,so be it.If the've chosen to do so because they believe to have the global language already,then its even more worrisome.Two global superpowers preaching the one true language…..it will not end well.Besides it's not like America has made a point of learning new languages to bridge cultural differences.
"...I certainly wish there were only one spoken language.I think it would make life easier and more interesting,do you agree?.."
Without a doubt!Clear communication is essential for the success and survival of any type of group or team,even organisms.
"...They tried to make a universal language,called Esperanto,but it didn't catch on with the people of the world,I wonder why not?.."
I believe there must be pressure to affect change.I propose,English has grown to be a powerful language because of America's ascent to the top of the global economy.Because of the domination of the dollar ,during the first world war,English became a commodity and has remained so ever since.If we were in a situation where we could not afford,to NOT understand one another,then we will create this global language.
"...How could you and I have this conversation without language,we need language to have it,don't we?…"
We sure do!but I ask,Do we need so many?And It might seem ethnocentric to choose one language over another,but this is where we must consider the value of individual cultures or one global culture,not for us ,but for generations to come.
