Let’s talk about manias. Let’s start with Beatles mania: hysterical teenagers, crying, screaming, pandemonium. Sport mania, defining crowd, all for one idea: get the ball in the nt. Okay, religious mania. There is lecture, there is weeping, there is vision. Mania can be good, mania can be alarming, or mania can be deadly. The world has a new mania, a mania for learning English. Listen as Chinese students practice their English by screaming it. “I want to change my life… I don’t want to let my parents down… I don’t ever want to let my country down… Most importantly… I don’t want to let myself down.” How many people are trying to learn English worldwide? Two billions of them. “A T-shirt… a dress…” In Latin America, in India, in South East Asia, and most of all in China. If you are a Chinese students, you starts learning English in the third grade, by law. That’s why this year China will become the world largest English speaking country. Why English? One single word: opportunity. Opportunity for better life, a job, to be able to pay for school, or to put better food on the table. Imagine a student taking a giant test for three full days. Her score on this one test literally determines her future. She studies 12 hrs a day for 3 years to prepare. 25% of her grade is based on English. It calls the gao-cao, and 80 millions high school Chinese students have already taken this grueling test. The intensity to learn English is almost unimaginable unless you witness it. “Perfect… I want to speak perfect English… I want to speak… perfect English… I want to change my life…” So is English mania good or bad? Is English a tsunami washing away other languages? Not likely. English is the world’s second language. You native language is your life, but with English you can become part of a wider conversation, a global conversation about global problems like climate change or poverty or hunger or disease. The world has other universal languages. Mathematic is the language of science, music is the language of emotion, and now English is becoming the language of problem solving, not because America is pushing it but because the world is pulling it. So English mania is a turning point like the harnessing of electricity in our cities or the fall of the Berlin wall. English represents hope for a better future, the future where the world has a common language to solve its common problems. Thank you very much.
