If you go to the supermarket, you will observe English letters on the packages of some goods. If you are a student, you must know that the score of English in the college entrance examination is 150, which accounts for 20% of the total score. If you go to a big city, you will hear that white-collar workers in the CBD who wear suits and ties on high heels speak fluent English. English is not only related to our daily life, but also penetrates in the tourism industry, high-tech industry, cultural exchange industry and so on. English has become a symbol of knowledge and conduct in a highly competitive society. However, with the rapid improvement of China’s comprehensive national strength, the status of English is being weakened by Chinese which is the cultural accumulation of the Chinese nation for more than 5,000 years.
China’s development speed has made the world look impressive, since adopting the open door policy. Especially since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, under the leadership of the Party Central Committee with General Secretary Xi General, China’s economic development has achieved historic and brilliant achievements, and the spread of Chinese culture has also ushered in the best historical opportunity. There is an increasing focus on? learning and studying Chinese culture for the people around the world.Therefore, it is an inevitable trend to promote the Chinese culture to go out and form a national cultural soft power that is compatible with the level of economic and social development and the status of a big country. Chinese is the carrier of Chinese cultural communication. It is one of the most direct ways for peopple all over the world to know China. In addition, Chinese is the world’s most widely used language and the charm of Chinese is quietly blooming.
President Xi has said, “Language is the best key to understanding a country.”Language learning and communication have a basic, extensive and conductive role in the process of human interaction, which is the bridge and bond that deepens mutual understanding, friendship and cooperation among people from all countries in the world. In 2013, Chinese as a second foreign language has been incorporated into the national education system by some African countries after the“One Belt, One Road” economic and trade cooperation framework formed. At the same time, Chinese has been listed as one of the foreign language subjects for university entrance examinations in the United States, Canada, Japan, Australia and some other countries. In 2019, Russian middle school students will take the Chinese subject test for the first time. Besides, the rapid expansion of China’s Confucius Institutes has become a shiny Chinese business card. The craze for Chinese language is the concentrated expression of the global “China craze”. And it has become an inevitable trend that “the world is talking about Chinese”.
To a certain extent, language communication is a reflection of the country’s economic strength. In the past, when the Roman Empire was strong, many Europeans were proud of learning Latin. When France was strong, French was the most elegant. Durinng China’s Han and Tang Dynasties, because of frequent exchanges with foreign countries, foreigners were proud of speaking Chinese. At the moment, the political economy of the United States stands at the peak of the world, as a result, the English has became the most widely used language in the world. However, with the rapid development of China’s international status and international influence, the important role of Chinese in the process of international economic trade and cultural exchange has been more prominent. In the future, Chinese will surely make a strong contribution to the world language exchange and cooperation, and become the international language together with English.
