2 Every year some languages die out. Some people argue this is not important because our lives are made easier by this change. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
In the past decades, with the growth of modern communication and the development of air transportation, a single international language has been used to cover the whole world. Thanks to this universal language, people from different countries with different mother languages can understand each other easily. However, this trend may result in some languages go extinct from the world.
There are several reasons to believe that a single international language has made our lives more convenient and easier. Firstly, the trade has become increasingly international, involving partners who have mutually incomprehensible mother tongues. A global language can greatly boost the efficiency of business transaction. Secondly, there has been a proliferation of international organization. So a universal language is indispensable in international affairs, which can strengthen cooperation between different countries. Thirdly but not lastly, in this information age, science and technology are developing in a staggering rate. A universal language can actually promote the dissemination of knowledge.
Though international language has done so much good to individuals and society, the negative of it can never be ignored. One of the biggest problems is the extinction of some languages. As one of the most important parts of culture, language both expresses and embodies cultural reality. On the other hand, language, as a product of culture, helps spread the culture. It means that with the widely use of a international language, some lesser-known languages will gradually become extinct. Accordingly, cultures it representing will also disappear from the global permanently.
All in all, people should face the problems of a single language brings us while enjoying the convenience and benefits of it, and measures should be taken to alleviate this situation. In this way, our cultural identity and diversity can keep on development.
