24、   When 4-year-old British Prince George started his first day of school in September, 2017, Chinese language was on his course.

And he wasn’t alone. According to a report in September, about 51 percent of UK parents want their children to learn Chinese, as it’s believed to be one of the most useful languages to know.

In fact, the popularity of Chinese drove the UK government to launch the Chinese Excellence Program in September last year. Its goal is to make at least 5, 000 British state middle school students speak Chinese well by 2020.

The language has become the second most spoken foreign language in the US, after only Spanish (西班牙语),with over 2. 1 million speakers, according to a survey.

Many US famous people such as Facebook founder (脸书创始人) Mark Zuckerberg and Obama’s daughter,Malia Obama, study Chinese as a second language.

So far, 67 countries and regions (地区) have included Chinese in their national course, so why are so many countries crazy about learning Chinese?

One reason could be that as China continues to develop quickly, Chinese is increasingly becoming a useful tool for people’s personal and professional growth. “I think everyone believes that China will be the next great superpower (超级大国)... even if it' s not a superpower like America. It still has an important influence in the future,” said Aisling.

McCaffrey from Canada, who studied at the Renmin University of China, “Learning Chinese is the best way to make sure that you can be part of that growth.”

This opinion was shared by former (前任的) British Prime Minister David Cameron, who urged(呼吁) British students to learn Chinese to “seal (抓住) tomorrow’s business deals” in 2013.

【1】Why do UK parents want their children to learn Chinese?

A.Chinese is on the course. B.Princess George starts to learn Chinese.

C.The UK government sets up the program. D.Chinese is one of the most useful languages.

【2】________asked British students to learn Chinese.

A.Malia Obama B.David Cameron C.Prince George D.Mark Zuckerberg

【3】Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A.Aisling McCaffery is from Canada.

B.Learning Chinese is the best way to be famous.

C.There are more than 2.1 million Chinese speakers in the US.
