The world has anew mania, mania for learning English such as in China, students practice English by screaming it. two billion people trying to learn English in worldwide. In china, learning English starting at third grade by law and it makes china as a largest english speaking country.

Why they learn English? In the simple word, it’s “opportunity” for a better life and job.
English mania good or bad?  is English a tsunami that washing away other languages? not likely. English is the world’s second language. our native language is our life but with English we can understand wider conversation; global conversation, global problems like climate change or poverty. The world other has universal languages such as mathemathic is the language of science. Now English is becoming the language of problem solving, because the world is pulling it. so English mania is a turning point. English represents hope for a better future that has common language to solve it common problems.
