  English as a Foreign Language

  Who taught you to speak English?Your parents,while you were a young child?Your teachers at school?Perhaps even the BBC as a grown-up.Whoever it was,somehow you have developed an understanding of what is rapidly becoming a truly global language.

  There are now about 376 million people who speak English as their first language,and about the same number who have learnt it in addition to their mother tongue.There are said to be one billion people learning English now and about 80% of the information on the Internet is in English.

  People have argued that design museums are often made use of as advertisements for new industrial technology.But their role is not simply a matter of sales—it is the honoring of excellently invented products.The difference between the window of a department store and the showcase in a design museum is that the first tries to sell you something,while the second tells you the success of a sale.

  One advantage of design museums is that they are places where people feel familiar with the exhibits.Unlike the average art museum visitors,design museum visitors seldom feel frightened or puzzled(困惑).This is partly because design museums clearly show how and why mass-produced products work and look as they do,and how design has improved the quality of our lives.Art museum exhibits,on the other hand,would most probably fill visitors with a feeling that there is something beyond thei...
