I'll let this ride a few days before answering.
Since a certain newbie gave it away already
, the exit rows would have to go out empty if there were no English speaking passengers...I know unlikely, but just for S&G's.
US Airways is an English speaking carrier and is required to have passengers in those rows who speak English. They must be able to comprehend the English language. Not just be able to answer the question "Do you speak English?" The glassy stare usually confirms whether they can or can not comprehend.
That is why we are required to ask you if you speak English when at the exit row.
