Question

the utility of language learning technology in recent years is an indication that now is time for more people to start learning mandarin. thanks to an ever - expanding library of digital resources, those wishing to study mandarin now have a multitude of options. online learning programs that are often supplemented by audio recordings, video recordings, and online consultations appeal to many learners. mandarin dictionaries are now widespread on the internet. additionally, there has been an emergence of chinese typing apps for pcs, laptops, tablets, and mobile phones. via this technology, phonetic sounds are translated into symbols, eliminating the necessity to learn how to write thousands of chinese characters.
the fourth paragraph is meant to support the authors main claim that more people should learn mandarin chinese as a second language. whats wrong with the authors argument in the fourth paragraph?
the author does not provide specific examples of digitized learning resources.
the argument ignores the fact that online learning programs might not be affordable to all learners.
accessibility to online mandarin learning resources does not support why people should learn it.
mandarin is a complicated language that does not lend itself well to online learning.

Explanation:

The paragraph focuses on the availability of online Mandarin - learning resources (like online learning programs, dictionaries, typing apps). But having access to resources (availability) does not inherently answer the question of why people should learn Mandarin. It just shows that learning is more convenient in terms of resource access.

Answer:

Accessibility to online Mandarin learning resources does not support why people should learn it.
