【中文成為鞋業重鎮 São João da Madeira 的 8-9歲學生的必修科目】
【Mandarin has been made compulsory at schools in the town of São João da Madeira】
學習中文在世界上很多地方真的成為一股熱潮。 只有2萬名居民的葡萄牙北部小鎮 São João da Madeira, 已將中文科列為當地8-9歲小學生的必修科目!
Chinese learning craze is sweeping in many parts of the world. São João da Madeira - a small industrial town in the north of Portugal, the country''s shoe capital which specialises in luxury footwear - has now made Mandarin Chinese compulsory for children aged 8 and 9!
São João da Madeira 是國家的鞋業重鎮, 專門從事高檔鞋類製造。鎮的教育官員希望, 小朋友長遠能學好中文, 增強競爭力和優勢, 未來能幫助推廣和銷售國家的高檔鞋類產品到中國, 促進經濟。葡萄牙政府正緊密觀察新政策之成效，看看日後會否將政策推展到在全國各地推行。
不知將來, 中文會否有一日成為葡萄牙的第二大或第三大語言呢 (就像西班牙語是美國的第二大語言)? :-)
The aim is to give their youth the competitive tool to help sell their products to China - the world's biggest market. The government is observing the new policy closely to see if it can be implemented throughout the country.
Will Chinese language one day become the second or third most used language in Portugal (just as Spanish is the second most spoken language in the United States)? :-)
