child a bit of nostalgia(怀旧)or“blast from the past,as we say.But it is not a distant childhood memory.The words come back to you as clearly as when you sang them all those years ago.Researchers at the University of Edinburgh studied the relationship between music and remembering a foreign language.They found that remembering words in a song was the best way to remember even one of the most difficult languages.Here is what they did.Researchers took 60 adults and randomly divided them into three groups of 20.Then they gave the groups three different types of“listen-and-repeat learning conditions.Researchers had one group simply speak the words.They had the second group speak the words to a rhythm,or beat.And they asked the third group to sing the words.All three groups studied words from the Hungarian language for 15 minutes.Then they took part in a series of language tests to see what they remembered.Why Hungarian,you ask?Researchers said they chose Hungarian because not many people know the language.It does not share any roots with Germanic or Romance languages,such as Italian or Spanish.After the tests were over,the singers came out on top.The people who learned these new Hungarian words by singing them showed a higher overall performance.They did the best in four out of five of the tests.They also performed two times better than those who simply learned the words by speaking them.Dr.Katie Overy says singing could lead to new ways to learn a foreign language.The brain likes to remember things when they are contained in a catchy 3,or memorable 4,tune

website Dr.Ludke writes,“This study provides the first experimental evidence that a listen-and-repeat singing method can support foreign language learning,and opens the door for future research in this area.56.The“song mentioned in the first paragraph is intended to_.A.recall the past B.introduce the topic C.attract the readers D.compare the childhood with the present 57.According to the passage which language doesnt share the same root with Germanic or Romance languages?A.English B.Spanish C.Italian D.Hungarian 58.Based on the last two paragraphs,we can conclude that _ A.singing is the best way to learn a language.B.a listen-repeat method is very effective for any language learner.C.the brain probably works best when the foreign language learners sing the words.D.Dr.Katie Overy and Dr.Ludke disagree with each other.59.In which situation can the finding of the research be applied?A.An American is going to learn some Chinese.B.A child is going to have his first music
