That’s a great question. I can give you three reasons.
–第一個是因爲我現在住在台灣。在台灣如果我只會説英文，做什麽事情都很麻煩。
Dì yī gè shì yīnwèi wǒ xiànzài zhù zài táiwān. Zài táiwān rúguǒ wǒ zhǐ huì shuō yīngwén, zuò shénmó shìqíng dōu hěn máfan.
+The first reason is I live in Taiwan. If you can only speak English in Taiwan, everything is so inconvenient.
–You want to buy stuff, order food, rent a car, rent an apartment, what are you going to do?
–The only option is to study chinese so you can talk to other people.
–大部分的人喜歡交新朋友，可是如果你不會說新朋友的語言，要怎麽辦？
Dà bùfèn de rén xǐhuān jiāo xīn péngyǒu, kěshì rúguǒ nǐ bù huì shuō xīn péngyǒu de yǔyán, yào zěnmó bàn?
+Most people like making new friends but if you can’t speak your new friend’s language, what are you going to do?
–有一點難跟不會説中文的人聊天。因為你們不可以溝通，所以你們中間有了一道牆，這道牆就是語言本身。
Yǒu yīdiǎn nán gēn bù huì shuō zhōngwén de rén liáotiān. yīnwèi nǐmen bù kěyǐ gōutōng, suǒyǐ nǐmen zhōngjiān yǒule yīdào qiáng, zhè dào qiáng jiùshì yǔyán běnshēn.
+It’s a little hard to speak to someone who doesn’t speak Chinese. Due to the fact that you can’t communicate, there will be a wall between you, that wall is your own language.
–現今在全世界越來越多人説中文了，所以會説中文是一個很大的優點。
Xiànjīn zài quán shìjiè yuè lái yuè duō rén shuō zhōngwénle, suǒyǐ huì shuō zhōngwén shì yīgè hěn dà de yōudiǎn.
+Nowadays, more and more people around the world speak Chinese so being aboe to speak Chinese is a big advantage.
