In an era of globalization, the interactions between nations are more frequent and deeper than ever. Chinese is becoming an international language with an increasing number of users

42、. In this process, Putonghua is the launching pad for our brilliant culture rocket. For without it, we cannot expect a forceful and convincible cultural influence. Excerpt 2 Kaleidoscope of Culture Every place has its own regional characteristics which are the quintessence of not only its historic d

43、evelopment, but also cultural heritage. Among all the unique features, dialects as the languages that differ from place to place are the treasures in local cultures.

49、at with increasing users of our national dialects, the local dialects are fading. In fact, the preservation and the development of dialects are not in collision with the promotion of Putonghua. (Viewpoint) Firstly, there is no doubt that the promotion of Putonghua is necessary. (Topic sentence) The

50、appearance of a unified language to make the public interaction more convenient is the demand of our social development.

Dialects as the representations of the regional characteristics should be preserved. (Topic sentence) Whats more, we should

52、realize that although these different languages are called dialects in our society, local people prefer to call them their native accent which would remain the same even after years have passed.
