Go through the following text to recognize it
with a topic sentence and supportive sentences. Add transitional words and
combine sentences to develop the text
into a coherence one:
Where there are humans there are languages. No nation exists
in the world without its own language. In addition, every language on earth
appears to be very old very capable of expressing almost anything its speakers
may need or want to say. It is still impossible to be certain about when and
how man first began to speak. But scientists believe that language is almost as
old man himself. Writing, by comparison, is a new invention, only about 5000
years old. Even now a large number of languages and dialects have no system of
writing. And in every nation there are people who can neither read nor write
their language. In the human family language is universal, but writing is not.
Yet without writing man is cut off from nearly all knowledge of his own past.
History begins with the invention of writing. Writing removes the barrier of time
and space. If language is as old as man, writing seems to be as old as
civilized man. That is, though language is primarily speech, its system of
writing is indispensable to civilization.
