There are more than 3,000 different languages in the world. It seems that everyone thinks that his or her native language is the most important one,as it is his or her first language. For many people,native language may be even their only language in all their lives. English however,is thought to be the most widely used language in the world.

  As a native language,English is spoken by nearly three hundred million people in Great Britain,the U. S. A. Australia,New ZealandandCanada.

For people inIndiaand many other countries and areas,English is often necessary for business,education,information and other activities. So English is the official language there.

  As a foreign language,there is no other language studied or used more widely than English. We use it to listen to the radio or to travel. It is also one of the working languages in the United Nations and is more useful than the others.

And now English is widely used in the world’s computer network (计算机网络).
