English and English Community
1 There is no doubt that English is a useful language.The people who speak English today make up the largest speech community in the world with the exception of speakers of Chinese.
2 A speech community is similar to other kinds of communities.The people who make up the community share a common language.Often they live side by side,as they-do in a neighborhood（街坊）,a village,or a city.More often they form a whole country.National boundaries,however,are not always the same as the boundaries of a speech community.A speech community is any group of people who speak the same language no matter where they happen to live.
3 We may say that anyone who speaks English belongs to the English speech community.For convenience（方便）,we may divide the speakers into two groups:one ig which the speakers use English as their native language,the other in which the speakers learn[English as a second language for the purpose of education,commerce,and so on.
4 Learning a second language extends one's vision and expands the mind.The history and literature of a second language record the real and fictional（虚构的）lives of people and their culture;a knowledge of them adds to our ability to understand and to feel as they feel.Learning English as a second language provides another means of communication through which the window of the entire English speech community becomes a part of our heritage.
