Add the lang attribute to the html tag.

For a website in English: <html lang='en'>

Read this article by W3C for why we need this line of code.

We cancel the addition of the dir attribute to be set as ltr.

Atom includes this attribute as its boilderplate code (type html and press the tab key).
But W3C says, "No dir attribute is needed for documents that have a base direction of left-to-right, since this is the default."
The HTML5 Boilerplate does not include the dir attribute.
