However, adults can study a second language as fast as children, a new study reports. Adults can develop the increased neural (神经的) connections with language study that can avoid dementia (痴呆) by four years, as well as make traveling a lot easier.In an examination of Spanish second-language learners, the researchers found that after simplest training, the brain activity between sentences that relied on grammatical features unique to each language was similar to that of native speakers. “I think it is the reason why people think university foreign language teaching is good. It shows that, even with limited time in the college classroom, learning can happen quite quickly and well,” said professor Alison Gabriele, the co-author of the paper.Beyond that, it gives parents more reasons to study a second language as part of a family effort. Further research has shown that learning a language as a family effort improves everyone’s abilities and gives opportunities for learning something that are mostly absent from classroom settings. National Geographic reports in an interview with Christine Jernigan, author of Family Language Learning: Learn Another Language, Raise Bilingual Children, that as for immersion (沉浸) in language study, practicing a second language with people is the most important part, and who talks to each other more than a family? Language learners need to be brave. Besides, they should ready themselves for making mistakes and receive others’ advice.Most people will be far more comfortable making mistakes around family members than in aclassroom setting. Furthermore, any home activity, whether that’s gardening, playing in the yard, watching movies, going shopping, cleaning, or cooking a meal, becomes an opportunity for language learning. Jernigan suggests preparing vocabulary before an activity and using it as short homework. Jernigan suggests using subtitles (字幕) too, so you can see which words are being used.1．What does the new study in paragraph 1 find?A．Kids often travel a lot ion their own.B．Adults have learnt a second language better than kids.C．Adults can study a second language as quickly as kids.D．Kids are likely to develop the increased neural connections.2．What does Alison Gabriele think of learning a language in the college classroom?A．It is successful.B．It is challenging.C．It is disappointing.D．It is boring.3．What is the advantage of learning a language as a family effort?A．Helping kids form good learning habits.B．Making parents control kids easily.C．Keeping kids focusing on the classroom.D．Having more chances to learn in other situations.4．What should language learners do according to the text?A．Be brave to take more risks.B．Fit in with new learning environment.C．Be willing to accept other’s comments.D．Spend much time doing home activities.BWhen I was young, I had no idea what I wanted to do. The choices were thin. It was assumed (假定的) that I’d go to college, and after, that I could be a mom. I could, be a secretary. I could be a nurse or a teacher. If anyone asked, I said I wanted to be a writer. Even I knew that wasn’t a real job. Mostly, I didn’t think about it.But just as I was coming of age, a world of possibility opened up. By the time I graduated from college with a science degree, I still didn’t know what I wanted to do. And one day, after seeing a notice in the paper, I remembered there was something I’d wanted to do, once. It sounded fun, so I took the test to be a mail carrier. The new Postal Service was by law an inclusive group. If you got a good enough score, youwere in.It was an older woman conducting (执行) my fitness entry exam who was the first to disagree. This wasn’t a job for a girl, she said. And I shouldn’t take a man’s job away from him. He has a family to support. Despite that poor assumed man’s family, I became one of perhaps a dozen female carriers in the whole city of Portland, Oregon.On the street, I was a novelty (新奇的人). I didn’t go a single day without hearing some friendly words: Well, I guess we can’t call you the mailman, can we? We’ll have to call you the mail-woman! Those particular words somehow appeared naturally in thousands of minds at once. My existence received attention. It’s hard to imagine now.Thirty-two years later I retired into a very different world. Being a retired mail carrier is even more fun than being a mail carrier. And finally, I get to be a writer. It’s still not really a job.5．What can we know about the author when she was young?A．She had no plan for her future.B．She studied hard to be a writer.C．She never wanted to go to college.D．She knew little about what a real job was.6．Why did the author want to be a mail carrier?A．She could do nothing else after her graduation.B．She thought it interesting to be a mail carrier.C．She got a high score in the test to be a mail carrier.D．She was bored with studying for a science degree.7．What was the older woman’s attitude to the author’s decision?A．Supportive.B．Careless.C．Unclear.D．Negative.8．What was the author’s purpose in writing this text?A．To stress the importance of a career plan.B．To share the story of her career options.C．To show the fun of being a mail carrier.D．To express her regret about her job choice.CAn important lesson in the moral (道德的) education of children could be as close as the book in theirhands. Stories matter. And they can play a role in building moral values in young audiences, according to the results of a new study.Lindsay Hahn is the first author of the new study, which explores how media content (内容) influences children. Many studies done before have focused on wide concept (概念), but Hahn’s study looks at how moral values might influence the kids’ values. Do children reading particular moral, characteristics take in those qualities and build their own morality? The findings suggest so.“Parents, caregivers, and teachers are often wondering how media can be used for good,” says Hahn. “How can it be used for good things? How can it discourage bad habits? How can it educate?” Answering those questions begins with a better understanding of how to use media. “When parents are considering what media they might want to select for their children, they can deliberate what particular moral value is being stressed by the main character, and how the main character is treated because of those actions,” she says.For the study, Hahn and her workmates took the main character from a young adult novel. They wrote the content to reflect the study’s focus on moral values. Those stories were shared with about 200 participants (参与者) between the ages of 10 and 14. This is a favorable range for media research because it’s more difficult to introduce the understanding of stories to younger kids, while challenging to hold the attention of older teenagers, who become bored with basic storylines, according to Hahn.9．What is the result of the new study?A．Stories should be spread more by media.B．Children like reading books full of funny stories.C．Children have learned an important lesson from stories.D．Stories help children to develop their own moral values.10．What does Hahn’s study focus on?A．How children deal with media content.B．How children are exposed to modern society.C．How media content influences children’s moral: values.D．How children should deal with the moral values in stories.11．What does the underlined word “deliberate” mean in paragraph 3?A．Describe.B．Improve.C．Title.D．Consider.12．Which is the best title for the text?A．The Young Can Build Good Moral Values EasilyB．It Is Difficult for the Young to Understand Moral ValuesC．Stories Play an Important Role in the Young’s Moral ValuesD．Scientists Find More Ways to Help the Young Build Moral ValuesDJason, a straight-A student from the University of Pennsylvania, uses the term “pseudo-working” to describe how many of us study. The pseudo-worker looks and feels like someone who is working bard - he or she spends a long time in the library and is not afraid to push on late into the night – but, because of a lack of focus and concentration, he or she doesn’t actually achieve much.This phenomenon cam be seen in most colleges. For example, at Dartmouth there was a section of the main library that was open twenty-four hours a day and the students I used to see in there late at night crowded in groups, drinking coffee, were definitely pseudo-working. The roommate who looks through her chemistry notes on the couch while watching TV is pseudo-working. The guy who brings three meals, a blanket. and six-pack of Red Bull to the study zone in preparation for an all-day paper-writing marathon is also pseudo-working.By placing themselves in distracting environments and insisting on working long hours, these students are damaging their brain’s ability to think clearly and efficiently to achieve the task at hand. In the end they get half the results with twice the effort.The bigger problem here is that most students don’t even realize that they’re pseudo-working. To them pseudo-working is work - it’s how they’ve always done it, and it’s how all of their friends do it. Ii never crosses their mind that there might be a better way. Straight-A students. on the other hand, know all about pseudo-working. They fear it, and for good reason It not only wastes time, but it’s also mentally tiring.In fact, the most important skill in becoming a better student is the ability to get work done quickly and with a smallest amount of wasted effort. Some cognitive science research concludes that about 50 minutes is the optimal learning period to maximize the material integrated per time unit. So how do these students achieve this goal? To understand their way to success, consider the following simple formula(公式): work achieved = time spent * intensity of focus.Pseudo-working features a very low intensity of focus. Therefore, to achieve something by pseudo-working. You need to spend a lot of time. The straight-A approach, on the other hand, increases intensity in order to use less time.13．Which of the following phenomenon is pseudo-working?A．Tom is busy taking notes while attending a lecture.B．Mike is sitting at a study lounge in preparation for a final exam quietly.C．Jack spends a long time in the library on his essay while listening to music.D．Alice and Sara are sitting on the couth reading their favorite books.14．Compared with straight-A students, the major problem of most students is that they _____ A．want to spend more time on study.B．are eager to follow their friends’ way.C．have gotten used to their study approach.D．are unaware of their pseudo-working.15．What does the underlined word “optimal” mean in paragraph 5?A．Possible.B．Best.C．Least.D．Accurate.16．Why does the author mention the formula in the text?A．To show the benefit of working hard.B．To prove the necessity of achieving work.C．To emphasize the importance of concentration.D．To explain the reason for spending much time.。
