汉语备受追捧The Popularity of Mandarin

In China, there is no doubt that English is very important, because it has been the indispensable subject for students to learn since they go to school. As our economy develops so fast and our country plays the more and more important role in the world, a lot of foreigners have started to learn mandarin. There is even a big TV show for foreigners to compete to be the one who speaks mandarin best. I have watched the show, I am so impressed that the foreigners can speak mandarin so well, for mandarin is such difficult to learn. My foreign teachers told me that so many people in their countries wanted to know more about China and they were interested in our culture. The popularity of mandarin shows that our country has become stronger. We should be proud of that.
在中国,毫无疑问,英语是非常重要的,因为它已经成为不可或缺的学科，打从学生上学起。随着我国经济的发展如此之快,我们的国家在世界上扮演着越来越重要的作用,很多外国人开始学习汉语。甚至有一个大型电视节目，外国人竞争成为汉语说得最好的人。我看过这个节目,印象很深刻,外国人能把普通话说得那么好,因为汉语是如此难学。我的外教告诉我,很多人在他们的国家想知道更多关于中国的事情，他们对我们的文化很感兴趣。汉语的流行表明,我们的国家变得强大。我们应该感到自豪。
