WHY AM I LEARNING ENGLISH?
English is the most widely spoken language in the world
Today. It is a quite amazing how the use of English has
become so widespread. The English is not as easy as Esperato

which was especially written for to be as easy as possible
for people to learn, and yet the Esperato is spoken by very
few people around the world. For many people, English is not as
more beautiful a language as French but it seems too late for
French to cach up with English as an international language.
German is the a useful language if you are in business
in Europe but it is not half as easy to learn so as English,
and people say it doesn’t sound as if pleasant as English.
English has become so important that it is becoming the more
and more essential to know it if you want to get a good job.

Most of the countries in the world have searched for alternative sources of energy
in various directions. Many communities are burning garbage and other biological
waste products to produce electricity. Converting waste products to gases or oil is also
an efficient way to dispose of waste.
Experimental work is being done to derive synthetic fuels from coal, oil, shale
and coal tars. But today that process has proven expensive. Other experiments are
underway to harness power with giant windmills. Geothermal power heat from the earth
is also being tested.
