English and English Community
1 There is no doubt that English is a useful language.The people who speak English today make up the largest speech community In the world with the exception of speakers of Chinese.
2 A speech community is similar to other kinds of communities.The people who make up the community share a common language.Often they live side by side,as they do in a neighborhood(街坊),a village,or a city.More often they form. a whole country.National boundaries,how even are not always the same as the boundaries of a speech community.A speech community is any group of people who speak the same language no matte;where they happen to live.
3 We may say that anyone who speaks English belongs to the English speech community.For convenience(方便),we may divide the speakers into two groups:one in which the speakers use English as their native language,the other in which the speakers learn English as a second language for the purpose of education,commerce,and So 0n.
4 Learning a second language extends one’s vision and expands the mind.The history and literature of a second language record the real and fictional(虚构的)lives of people and their culture;a knowledge of them adds to our ability to understand and to feel as they feel.Learning English as a second language provides another means of communication through which the window of the entire English speech community becomes a part of our heritage.
