Условие.

2 Read these predictions about the future of English and answer the questions that follow.

Today there are more non-native speakers than native speakers. Experts say that their number will grow in the future even faster. One of the reasons is that more and more people around the world need English for business and communication. English is also the language of economics, technology, advertising and tourism. Another reason is effective teaching techniques. Today you can even study English online!

More and more schools around the world will start teaching school subjects like Maths and Science in English. This means that Maths and Science teachers will need to have a good level of English themselves.

Experts also believe that children will soon start learning English from an earlier age. This is already happening in some countries, where pupils as young as two years old have an hour or two of English each week.

Experts predict that, in the future, the type of English that we learn at school will change. There will be less focus on grammar and accuracy. Teachers will concentrate more on speaking and writing skills, making sure that students learn how to communicate well.

In the future English will change from being a 'foreign language' to a 'basic skill'. At the same time, people will learn other foreign languages. More people will be bilingual, trilingual and multilingual.
