阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Do you often speak a dialect (方言) in daily life? Nowadays, many Chinese people speak Putonghua. 16 In order to save dialects, the Ministry of Education (教育部) set up the National Language Resource (资源) Protection Project a few years ago.
The ministry keeps doing surveys and protecting China's language resources. 17 Now China has owned the largest online language resource library in the world. Tens of thousands of videos and audio clips (音频片段) are provided, and people can learn dialects by watching or listening to them.
18 According to British linguist (语言学家) Harold Palmer, the dialect is the key to local culture, as language faithfully (忠诚地) shows the history and beliefs of an area.
Scholar (学者) Zhang Hongming expressed his worries about the disappearing (消失) dialects. "In the Wu dialect areas such as Shanghai and Suzhou, children aged 6 to 15 can understand the dialect but hardly speak it. 19 If this continues, the dialect might disappear in the future," he said.
So how did China make this big library? 20 More than 350 universities and research organizations took part in the project, along with over 4,500 experts and more than 9,000 dialect speakers.
The project is now into its second part. This includes creating digital (数字化的) tools like apps and mobile dictionaries to help people learn dialects.
A. It has studied how people talk in over 1,700 places.
B. Why is it so important to protect the dialect culture?
C. National effort was put into the project to make it happen.
D. The Ministry of Education has done a lot to protect dialects.
E. Because of this, some dialects are in danger of disappearing.
F. And young people above 15 years old sometimes speak it, but not very well.
G. Many young people prefer speaking English to dialects.

你在日常生活中经常说方言吗？如今，很多中国人说普通话。16 正因为如此，一些方言面临消失的危险。为了拯救方言，教育部几年前启动了国家语言资源保护工程。
教育部一直在进行调查并保护中国的语言资源。17 它已经研究了1700多个地方的人们的说话方式。现在中国拥有了世界上最大的在线语言资源库。这里提供了数以万计的视频和音频片段，人们可以通过观看或收听来学习方言。
18 为什么保护方言文化如此重要呢？根据英国语言学家哈罗德·帕尔默的说法，方言是地方文化的关键，因为语言忠实地反映了一个地区的历史和信仰。
学者张洪明表达了他对方言消失的担忧。“在上海、苏州等吴方言地区，6到15岁的孩子能听懂方言，但几乎不会说。19 15岁以上的年轻人有时会说，但说得不太好。如果这种情况持续下去，方言将来可能会消失。”他说。
那么中国是如何建成这个大型资源库的呢？20 国家投入力量来推动这个项目的实施。350多所高校和研究机构参与了该项目，还有4500多名专家和9000多名方言使用者。
该项目现在进入了第二阶段。这包括创建应用程序和移动词典等数字化工具，以帮助人们学习方言。
