“because of china’s fast development, chinese has becom e more useful, and more and more americans begin to learn it,” said scott mcginnis, a washington language expert (專家).
for example, in 1999, only three schools in chicago had chinese lessons. this year more than 30 schools there have chinese during school days. last year china gave them 3,000 textbooks because they had done a good job.
