Have you ever seen the munication between animals?Boys and girls, in our daily life we need to municate with each other to make ourselves understood. Well, you know, in broad sense how can people transmit information to each other?Language, in its broad sense, is a way that information is transmitted. It can be spoken or seen.Look at the screen and enjoy some pictures, please. 1. What language do you speak? Can you speak other languages?2. Do you know how many languages are there in the world? 3.

Can you think of other ways that information can be exchanged? Do you think English is important? Why or why not? Do you have any effective methods for studying the English language to share with your classmates?Sample answer Surely, besides the ways talked about above, there are still other ways for people to exchange ideas or information. For example, in ancient times, Chinese people relayed fire signals at night and smoke signals in the day from one Great Wall watchtower to another so that war messages could be rapidly sent over great distances. And nowadays, people use the language of flowers to municate meaning (e.g., rose = love; tulip = formal announcement of love; forget-me-not = keeping me in your memory). No. As is reported, students in some primary schools are required to learn English even in Grade 1 of primary school, which I do not think is necessary. Primary school is a key stage for young children to acquire their mother tongue. Starting to learn another language too early may hinder the first language acquisition. In my opinion, children should learn the mother tongue well first. If we cant speak our own language well, how can we keep our own culture alive?Although English is the most widely used language around the world, Chinese is the most spoken language. Its useful to learn English if you want to travel, do business or study abroad. Whats more, in xx, the 29th Olympic Games will be held in Beijing. We are learning English to wele people from other parts of the world. Yes. When I began to learn English in primary school, my English teacher introduced many English songs and simple poems, which made learning English interesting and helped me develop a good sense of the language.2.

Nowadays, nearly 6,000 languages are used all over the world. Without languages, people wouldnt be able to municate with each other, and the world wouldnt be as it is today.

One of this is by speaking, while another important one is by using body language. This describes the ways that people use their bodies and facial expressions to municate with each other. Often you can tell a lot about what a person is thinking or feeling just through their body language. For example, if a person stands with his/her arm crossed, he/she may not trust you or may feel defensive; if a person touches his/her nose while listening to you talking, he/she may not believe you are telling the truth.

These people have invented a clever way of municating with each other by using their hands to make different gestures, which is called sign language. This is a plex set of signs that are made using your hands and face. Like any other language, sign language is difficult to master, but with practice it can bee a highly effective way of municating without needing to be able to speak or hear. You can learn more information from the following websites:deafness.about/od/signlanguage/deafness.about/od/basics/BrailleBraille was an invention by a Frenchman named Louis Braille (1809-1852). Louis Braille himself was a totally blind man. With the help of a soldier who invented a writing system for use in the dark, Braille then developed his system for the blind. Today blind people throughout the world benefit from the Braille System.

They do not speak to each other in the same way as we do; instead they use many different sounds and actions to express themselves.For example, bees make a buzzing noise, lions and bears growl, cats miaow, and dogs bark. If you see a cat standing with its back arched, heard lowered or legs bent, it could be scared. If a dog growls at you, it probably is angry and you should be careful. Animal language is simpler than human language, but it shows how intelligent animals are.
