Odesa, July 17 (Interfax-Ukraine) The water level in the Danube River in Odesa region has dropped below the critical level, the Emergency Situations Department of Odesa Regional State Administration reported.

As we know, China is growing rapidly into one of the largest economic operations in the world and is playing an increasing role in the international affairs. In 2015, when the generation born in the late 1990s grows up into the age of 20s, Asian region will be the focus of our world and China will be the focus of Asian region. Chinese will make more than one forth of the world's population. The booming economy in China is full of opportunities and hopes in the future. The children of overseas Chinese and those speaking Chinese with an English background enjoy exceptional advantages and face more opportunities then ever in future life, career or business development.

Like many of other languages, Chinese language is a bridge of friendship towards the world; Chinese language is bridge of international trade with the world; Chinese language is a bridge of international cooperation internationally; Chinese language is a bridge of educational and cultural exchange cross cultures and nations; Chinese language a bridge of world connections. Those who have obtained the abilities of using Chinese language in English context will indefinitely enrich and widen their opportunities in personal future development. The mastery of this language enables you to have the key to communicate with 1.3 billion Chinese in personal interest, future career, trading and business development. Studying the Chinese language is a major investment in your future life, and it's time to learn Chinese — the language full of economic values for personal growth than ever before.

However, even if you have a Chinese background, but you have no knowledge of Chinese language, you will lose these advantages, and consequently, your opportunities even less than ordinary people. We are all in the hope to give our younger generation the best education. To give our children a better future, we must pay a special attention to their learning of Chinese language at an appropriate stage. We must take advantage of the preciously limited and irreversible time with a most effective way to the children learning of Chinese language and culture.
