The weather was pretty good, so I didnā€™t take my umbrella. Unfortunately , it was raining in the afternoon. I had to run home after leaving the subway station. This made me unhappy. Therefore, I decided to buy a cup of milk tea. I know milk tea isnā€™t good for my health, but I canā€™t help drinking. Milk tea for me just like wine for drunkards.

The extinction of one language leads to the extinction of the culture.Ā On the contrary, when languages become extinct, there are some advantages. if only one language wereĀ used all over the world.

In my opinion, there will beĀ no concepts of individualĀ countries in the world in the future. People couldĀ use Esperanto or communicateĀ with high tech products.
