答案

150 words can do nothing. However, please let me try it.
The uttermost advantage of learning English is to be able to use another language, a lingua franca which is understood by two-fifths of the world population. Therefore, if I can think, speak, write, hear, read, and dream English, without any help from Chinese, I would be able to enjoy the following mini-advantages:
1. I can make many friends in English, because "English well done, friends we all won." My friends, when they speak and write only English to me, will open a new door which cannot be opened by Chinese, since the two languages belong to two greatly different cultures. By entering a new door, I will build friendship and learn new knowledge.
2. A second mini-advantage of learning English is that I can say what I want to say, and write what I want to write in English, when my English is good enough to express what I cannot express in Chinese. I fully understand that translation is only approximation, but never identification, because "Traduttore, traditore". Some wonderful expressions can never be translated into another language.
In a nutshell, learning English can help me to build newer and wider friendship, widen and deepen my knowledge of the world and humans, and say what I want to say or write what I want to write. Isn't that wonderful!
