章节摘录

　　spoken as English is today. A quarter of the world s popu- lation now uses the language. The British Council estimates that more than 1 billion people are learning it. It is the prin- cipal language of an increasing number of professions and activities. The worlds 375 million native speakers, from Canada to New Zealand, enjoy their good fortune in speak- ing the language everyone wants to learn. But experts such as Crystal warn that English is changing —— and native En- glish speakers might not find the results comfortable.　　Variations to Standard English grammar, of the sort Crystal observed in Egypt, are apparent in many coun- tries. The British Empire planted groups of English speakers from Vancouver to Cape Town to Auckland. As the empire declined, English showed signs of fading with it. By World War I, German had replaced English as the dominant language of science. But the rise of the US after World War II, and the power of its corporations and tech- nologies since, rescued English and propelled it to greater dominance.　　David Graddol is a lecturer at British Open University and author of the widely- cited 1997 British Council publication The Future of English. He believes that if im- portant technologies emerged from outside the US —— from China, for example —— English might start to lose its importance. But he and Crystal agree this will not hap- pen for a long time. So, where does the threat to native English speakers come from？ It comes, ironically, from the huge number of people learning English. They are taking control of the language in ways the older English-speaking world has barely begun to understand.
