English surrounds us

All me life I thought English was important. I have always thought of

traveling to such countries as U.S.A., England or Australia. And I have

always been interested in their culture and language. But now I realized

that English is even more important to our country as we became a part of

European Union.

First of all, we get lots of stuff such as Hollywood movies, music, lots of

books written in English. To understand the words of songs, movies and

books we need EEnglish. Then you get more interested in movie, certain song

or even book.

Secondly, English is required in almost all Lithuanian universities. So if

you want to join one you will have to know English. In addition, you will

get much more opportunities. You will have a chance to go and study in the

famous universities and colleges all over the world.

Finally, after you get through with your education and you are not able to

get a job here you will always be able to ggo and work abroad. Your wage and

job will depend on your ability to speak English. That is why we should

give lots of attention to it because it can change our lives.

However lots of people think that we should not give sso much attention to

English because it is not our native language. Sometimes they ignore or

dislike people who are really interested in English because according to

them we loose our patriotism. So they think that our native language is the

one that we should be studying because it is the memory of our ancestries

who fought and died to save it.

In short, I think it is really important for us to learn English because it

can change our future.
