If English mean endless new words, difficult grammar and sometimes strange pronunciation, you are wrong. Haven’t you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a language?
According to a new study by a British team, learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power. Researchers found that learning other language changes grey matter more. This is the area of the brain which processes information. It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles. The study also found the younger the people are when they start learning a second language, the greater the effect is.
The team led by Dr Andrea Mechelli, from University College London, took a group of Britons who only spoke English. They were compared with a group of “early bilinguals” who could use a second language before the age of five, as well as a number of later learners.
Scans showed that grey matter in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language. “Our studies suggest that the structure of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language,” said the scientists.
His findings were also matched in some other studies. Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales, has researched the link between bilingualism and math skills. “Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible(灵活的)”, he said. “You are actually going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas.”
Another similar conclusion is drawn in a study a native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of two and 34. Reading, writing and comprehension were all tested. The results showed that the younger they started to learn, the better. “Studying a language means you get an entrance to another world,” explained the scientists.
57. Which part will change more when a person studies a second language?
A. Grey matter.
B. The brain
C. Mental system
D. Muscles.
58.Who can study a second language more easily?
A. The adults
B. The teenagers
C. The children
D. The old
59. The underlined word “binlingual” probably means .
A. a researcher on language learning
B. a second language learner
C. a person who can speak two languages
D. an active language learner

A great number of Chinese are studying at schools in the United States. And writer Liel Leibovitz says the students are following an example that began in the 1870s.

Mr Leibovitz got the idea for the book about the boys a few years ago when he was traveling with his wife in China. “One afternoon it was raining in Beijing, and so we decide to stay in our hotel room and check through television stations. And we saw a photo of a young Chinse boy dressed in what appeared to be traditional Chinese dress. And he was standing next to a building that was very clearly Yale University(耶鲁大学).” Mr Leibovitz learned that delegation(代表团)of boys to learn the ways of the West. The Qing government wished theses
boys could help their country develop into a modern one. Because at that time China was not well developed compared with the western countries. Also, It could know more about the real life in the west.
“A little bit later on, I was delighted and amazed to discover that these boys, who later turned out to be very, very great men, and they had written down all the experiences they had in America and their letters and diaries had also been stored and out into the national libraries.”
66.Did Qing government use to sent a delegation of boy to have a further study in the USA?
