An Example of Analitical Exposition text

The Importance of English
     I personally think that English is the world's most important language. Why do I say that?
     Firstly, English is an International language. It is spoken by many people all over the world, either as a first or second language.
     Secondaly, English is also a key to open doors to scientific and technical knowledge which in needed for the economic and politics development of many countries in the world.
     Thridly, English is a top requrement of those seeking jobs. Applicants who master either active or passive English are more favorable than those who don't.
     From the fact above, it is obvious that everybody needs to learn English to greet the global era.
