In recent years, learning Chinese has aroused a great attention allover the world.And a new upsurge in learning Chineseis in the making in many foreign countries. As far as I am concerned, as a Chinese,learning Chinese is particularly important.

近年来，学习汉语已经引起了全世界的关注。汉语学习的新高潮正在国外许多国家中兴起。我觉得作为一个中国人，学习汉语是特别重要的。

There are several points accounting¹ for myview. First, Chinese is a great treasure of our nation and learning Chinesewell is a basic obligation of every citizen. Second, Chinese has become moreand more popular and frequently-used all over the world with the fastdevelopment of world. Therefore, a person whose mother language is Chinese hasno reason to refuse to learn Chinese. In addition, learning Chinese well is abasic of learning other languages. A large number of people put their allemphasis on learning other languages but cannot get a satisfied result becausethey neglecting Chinese learning. Therefore, when we are learning anotherlanguage, we should keep learning Chinese as well.

原因有几点。第一，中国是中华民族的瑰宝，学好汉语是每个公民的基本义务。第二，随着世界的快速发展，汉语已经越来越受欢迎而且使用越来越频繁。因此，一个母语是汉语的人没有理由拒绝学习中文。此外，学好汉语学习其它语言的基础。很多人把他们的注意力放在学习其他语言上却并没得到满意的结果是因为他们忽视了汉语的学习。所以，当我们在学习另一种语言时，我们应该坚持学习汉语。

In a brief, learning Chinese is important particularlyin new epoch². We had better make effort to learn it better.

简而言之，学习汉语是很重要的，特别是在新时代。我们最好努力把它学好。
