If English means endless new wrds, difficult grammar and smetimes strange prnunciatin, yu are wrng. Haven’t yu nticed that yu have becme smarter since yu started t learn a language?
Accrding t a new study by a British university, learning a secnd language can lead t an increase in yur brain pwer. Researchers fund that learning ther languages changes grey matter. This is the area f the brain which deals with infrmatin. It is similar t the way that exercise builds muscles（肌肉）. The study als fund the effects are greater, the yunger peple learn a secnd language.
A team led by Dr. Andrea Mechelli, tk a grup f Britns wh nly spke English. They were cmpared with a grup f “early bilinguals（双语）” wh had learnt a secnd language befre the age f five, as well as a number f later learners.
Scans shwed that grey matter density（密度）in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in peple withut a secnd language. But the lnger a persn waited befre mastering a new language, the smaller the difference.
“Our findings suggest that the structure f the brain is changed by the experience f learning a secnd language.” said the scientists. It means that the change itself increases the ability t learn.
Prfessr Dylan Vaughan Jnes f the University f Wales, has researched the link between bilingualism and math skills. “Having tw languages gives yu tw windws n the wrld and makes the brain mre flexible,” he said, “Yu are actually ging beynd language and have a better understanding f different ideas.”
The findings were matched in a study f native Italian speakers wh had learned English as a secnd language between the ages f 2 and 34. Reading, writing and cmprehensin were all tested. The results shwed that the yunger they started t learn, the better. “Studying a language means yu get an entrance t anther wrld,” explained the scientists.

A．the methd f learning a secnd languageB．men’s ability t learn a secnd language
C．hw language leaning helps brainpwerD．the relatinship between language and math
34．What des underlined “It” in the secnd paragraph refer t?
A．Exercise builds muscles.B．Language learning needs exercise.
C．The area f the brain deals with infrmatin.D．Learning ther languages changes grey matter.
35．We may learn frm the scientific findings that ________.
A．the earlier yu start t learn a secnd language, the higher the grey matter density is
B．there is n difference between a later secnd language learner and ne knwing n secnd language
C．the experience f learning a secnd language has an unknwn effect n peple’s brain
