hel pme with the main idea of the passage:

There are at least 2,000 different languages in the world. Of all these languages, English is the most widely used. It is used by business people, airline pilots and sea captains all over the world. It is also the first language in sports and science. So it is very important to learn English.

Chinese is also an important language because it has the great number of speakers. There are not only over one billion people living in China today, but also many Chinese people living outside China. Chinese is widely spoken in many parts of Asia and Africa. 
Russian is spoken in both Europe and Asia. French is widely understood in Europe and in parts of Canada, Africa and Asia. From more than 2,000 languages, the United Nations has chosen six of them for business. They are Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian and Spanish.
