Haven't you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a second language?According to a new study by a British university, learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brainpower. 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 when 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 a new language , the smallerthe difference." Our findings suggest that the structure 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 researched the link between bilingualism and maths skills. "Mastering 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 matched in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of two and thirty-four.Reading, writing, and comprehension were all tested. The results showed that the earlier they started to learn, the better. "Studying a language means you get an entrance to another world, "explained the scientists.4. Why does the author mention "exercise" in the second paragraph?A. To say language learning is also a kind of physical labor.B. To make people believe language learning helps grey matter work well.C. To prove that one needs more practice when learning a language.D. To show the importance of learning a foreign language.5. What does the underlined word " bilinguals "probably mean?A. Researchers on language learning.B. Native English speakers.C. People who can speak two languages.D. Active language learners.6. What can we know from the last two paragraphs?A. Learning a second language is the same as studying maths.B. Italian is the best choice for you as a second language.C. You'd better choose the ages between 2 and 34 to learn a second language.D. Early learning of a second language helps you a great deal in studying other subjects.CIt was my first day of sixth grade. I looked at my schedule and saw that I had Mrs. Foxwell's classes and this made me happy . Over the next three years , Mrs . Foxwell taught me many important things that I will never forget . Of all of the teachers and coaches I have had in my life,Mrs. Foxwell has been my favorite leader.Mrs. Foxwell is one of the most respected people I know. She is always kind to everyone and she treats others the way that she wants to be treated . She taught me respect in many different ways , but mainly how to be respectful in the business world.

Mrs. Foxwell told our class that she would cry because of the amount of work she had to do in very little time. She told our class that working all night at something we don't love is very stressful, so we should try and do something we love. In the end, she taught me that I have to keep my head high and pull through difficulties. I don't think I have ever worked as hard in any class as I did in her class. I created my own 28-page business plan to share with her, my parents,other teachers and my classmates. Although creating a business from nothing was a lot of hard work, I really enjoyed it and learned several lessons that will help me throughout life.I have had a lot of role models in my life, but one of the greatest ones is Eva Foxwell.
