46.但是随着讲英语人数的进一步扩增,社会发现了这些迹象:英语语言的全球主导地位预期将来可能变弱 。

47.因此 ,大卫·格瑞德尔的一些分析经过了一些人的自我满足,这些人可能相信英语的世界地位很稳固,因此英国的年轻人无需掌握其他语言能力。

48.许多国家正在将英语纳入小学课程当中 ,但是英国的儿童和学生似乎并未受到鼓励而能够流利地运用其他语言。

49.大卫·格瑞德尔所确定的这些变化都体现出了对英国的英语语言的提供者清晰且主要的质疑,这些提供者教其他国家的人们英语,并扩大教育事业的版图 。

50.这一预期为试图促进英语语言的学习和使用的机构奠定了基础 ,也为满足这些可能性的计划奠定了基础,即人们能够建立一种截然不同的运行操作环境的可能性。
