A thought-provoking current issue concerns with what kind of new subject will people want to learn. Some people say they want to learn subject such as art, music, computer, or programming. However, I want to learn language, specifically Chinese for the following subsequent reasons. To begin with, China known to be the most fast growing county in the world. The Chinese language is now most important language when doing business. In order to follow the trends it is essential to learn Chinese. For example, one of my good friend from university was able to speak Chinese. After graduating from university, we both got into the same company. Our companies source of industry was trading. The company mainly did business with global companies which is located in China. Since my friend was able to speak Chinese he was always selected to take over the job. Consequently, now he is promoted to director of sales and I am still remains at the same position. On top of that, I have a Chinese girl friend who I want to marry. I met my girl friend when I was studying in university and when she came to Korea for exchange student. We have no trouble communicating in Korean. Yet, since her parents and all her friends only knows how to speak Chinese for me it is essential for me to know how to speak their language. For example, when I first visited China to tell my girl friends parents that we are going to get married, I was not able to communicate with them freely. My girlfriend had to translate all the words to them and me. This was very difficult and uncomfortable. If I had been able to speak with them in Chinese, I think my first impression should had been better. To sum up, if there is a chance to learn something, I prefer to learn Chinese for the reasons stated on top. |
