Havent you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a language？According to a new study by a British university，learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power. Researchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter. 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 effect is greater，the younger people learn a second language. A 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 had learned a second language before the age of five，as well as a number of later learners. Scans showed that grey matter density(密度)in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language. But the longer a person waited before mastering(掌握)a new language，the smaller the difference is. “Our findings suggest that the structure(结构)of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language，”said the scientists. It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn. Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales，has studied the link(联系)between bilingualism and maths 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. ”The findings were just the same in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of 2 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. 61. The main subject talked about in this passage is . A. science on learning a second languageB. mans ability of learning a second languageC. language can help brain powerD. language learning and maths study62. In the second paragraph，the writer mentions “exercise” in order to . A. say language is also a kind of physical laborB. prove that one needs more practice when learning a languageC. show the importance of using the language when you learn the languageD. make people believe language learning helps grey matter work well63. We may know from the scientific findings that . A. the earlier we start to learn a second language the higher the grey matter density isB. there is no difference between a later second language learner and one who doesnt know a second languageC. the experience of learning a second language has bad effect on peoples brainD. the ability of learning a second language is changing all the time64. In the last two paragraphs，the author wants to tell us that . A. learning a second language is the same as studying mathsB. early learning of a second language helps us a great deal in studying other subjectsC. Italian is the best choice as a second languageD. wed better choose the ages between 2 and 34 to learn a second language65. The underlined word “bilinguals” probably means . A. researchers on language learningB. people who are good at learning foreign languagesC. people who can speak two languagesD. active language learnersC(原创)Luke has always been my closest and constant companion these past five years. In fact，he is very obedient(服从的)to me especially when I take care of other furry friends in our shelter. As you already know，there have been a lot of forest fires during the summer season. Many forests are badly damaged by fire each year. Not far from our shelter，a forest caught fire during this hot summer. We are in July，a heat wave which has been going on for three days. Luke rushed towards the forest where flames sent out an infernal heat. There was no longer any hope at the moment to wait for Luke to come back to the shelter. In fact，I was waiting for the fire brigade to announce me his death in the forest. Suddenly，a fireman burst into my office and informed me that my dog Luke succeeded in saving four kittens who were trapped by the flames. According to the fireman，Luke seized the kittens，one by one moving them to a safe place. I immediately accompanied the fireman to the forest to pick up the rescued kitte
