I READING Read the article. Then choose the correct answers below. وزارة التعليم Ministry of Education 2024-1446 11 Express Yourself English as a Lingua Franca Many people believe the world is in need of a lingua franca, or a language which people can use to communicate around the world. In recent years, English has rapidly taken on this role, as it has become one of the most widely spoken languages in the world. Over 300 million people speak English as their native language. There are at least 300 million more who use English as their second or third language and another 100 million who have learned it as a foreign language. English is listed as the official or co-official language in over 45 countries. It is also spoken extensively in other countries where it has no official status. The countries where the majority of people speak English as a native language are Antigua, Australia, the Bahamas, Barbados, Belize, Bermuda, Canada, Dominica, Grenada, Guyana, Ireland, Jamaica, New Zealand, St. Christopher and Nevis, St. Lucia, St. Vincent, South Africa, Trinidad and Tobago, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Interestingly, despite the fact that the United States has one of the largest English-speaking populations in the world, it doesn't have English as its official language. In fact, there has been a heated debate over this issue. Whereas many people think that the United States should have an official language which unites its people, many oppose the idea, arguing that having one official language would go against the First Amendment of the American Constitution which guarantees freedom of speech. English is recognized worldwide as the international language of communication. People in China, for example, study English not only to communicate with people living in English-speaking countries, but also to be able to talk to speakers of other languages, such as Portuguese, Spanish, Korean, etc., and vice versa. English is also the language of science, aviation, computing, diplomacy, and tourism. A pilot from anywhere in the world must be able to speak English in order to communicate with international control towers. Additionally, any computer professional must at least be able to understand written English to operate any kind of computer hardware and software. Over the last fifty years, the English language has indeed become the world's lingua franca, or in other words, the language that is accepted by the world population as its international vehicle for communication. 1.

11 Express Yourself N P Read the extract about Machine Translation technology (MT). Make some predictions of your own based on the information. Use future progressive, will or going to in your answers. The speech recognition application ‘Skype Translator,' is a piece of compatible software which is able to translate video conversations into 70 different languages in real time! This technology heralds a new era of international communication and makes the need to learn the lingua franca-or the common international language- a thing of the past. By the end of this year, our prediction is that everyone across the globe will no longer be learning foreign languages; they will be using MT (Machine Translation) instead. Apart from speech recognition software, another cutting edge piece of software up for grabs is the visual translation app. This is an application which enables you to see the world in your own language literally! By downloading the app to your smartphone, you simply point the camera at the printed text you want translated into your own language, such as a menu, and the video camera will instantly translate it! It's true that such a translation can be unreliable and sometimes a bit strange, but in as little as two years, we predict that the visual translation app will have been picked up by computer giants, developed and merged with wearable technology. If this happens, everyone will soon be able to purchase affordable eyewear that will be able to instantly and effectively translate whatever it is that you are looking at. With such translation technology just around the corner, can you imagine the possibilities that exist for the future? Language learning, education, work and travel will be completely revolutionized ... Machine Translation technology will enable everyone to communicate with each other without having to know another foreign language. 1. وزارة التعليم Ministry of Education 2024-1446 2. 3. 4.
