Haven’t 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 Michelle, from University College London, took a group of Britons who only spoke English. They were compared with a group of “early bilinguals” who had learnt 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 smaller the 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. “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 matched in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of two 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.‎ ‎36． The main subject talked about in this passage is ______.‎ A． science on learning a second language B． man’s ability of learning a second language C． language can help brain power D． language learning and maths study ‎37． In the second paragraph, the writer mentions “exercise” in order to ______.‎ A． say language is also a kind of physical labor B． prove that one needs more practice when he (she) is learning a language C． to show the importance of using the language when you learn the language D． make people believe language learning helps grey matter work well ‎38． The underlined word “bilingual” probably means ______.‎ A． a researcher on language learning B． a person who is good at learning foreign languages C． a person who can speak two languages D． an active language learner C A Spanish company has opened the first public napping space in Madrid. Siesta & Go promises ‎ the Spanish people a quiet and restful getaway in the city’s business center.‎ Napping spaces are already nothing new places in other big cities in the world. But the idea would appear to work well with the culture of Spain, where people traditionally take a midday nap.‎ The Madrid nap bar recently opened with 19 beds. They can be rented by the minute or by the hour. People can choose either a private or shared room. An hour of napping time inside a private room costs about $ 15.‎ The company also offers areas to work, as well as armchairs, newspapers and coffee for those not wishing to sleep. Philip Marco is one happy customer. He says he gets tired during the day because he has a long drive to work. He says the midday nap is the perfect way to build up energy. “I come for about 30 minutes, something like that. Sleeping for 30 minutes usually is enough for me to be able to get through the evening.”‎ Siesta & Go provides all bedding, clean nightshirts and other materials. Nappers can request to be woken up when their time is up.‎ While many Spanish people love their midday naps, others like Carlos Villarroja say they are just too busy to keep this tradition. “It’s a Spanish tradition, but I think it’s more of an impractical thing than a tradition. Because with the lifestyle we have the working hours, we have very little free time for a nap, in my case, at least during the week.”‎ But many health experts believe there is evidence that taking a short nap is very good for the body and mind. Scientific studies show that taking a nap can also prevent heart disease, lower blood pressure and reduce stress.‎ ‎39．The Madrid nap bar don’t allow customers to______________ .‎ A． share a room with others B． choose a private room C． use it as an office D． sleep for free ‎40．What does Philip Marco feel about the Madrid nap bar?‎ A． Happy. B． Worried. C． Amazed. D． Tired.‎ ‎41．Why does Carlos Villarroja regard a midday nap as an impractical thing?‎ A． It is not necessary to take it. B． Many people have no time to take it.‎ C． No research proves the good of taking it. D． Many people have no spare money to pay for it.‎ D Thomas Edison was one of ten said to be the greatest genius of his age. There are only a few men in all of the history, who have changed the lives of other men as much as the inventor of the first useful electric light. But Edison could never be happy only because someone said he was a genius. “There is no such thing as genius,” Edison said. He said that what people called genius was mostly hard work.‎ But Edison was a dreamer as well as a worker. From his earliest days as a child he wondered about the secrets of nature. Nature, he often said, is full of secrets. He tried to understand them; then, he tried to learn what could usefully be done with them.‎ Edison enjoyed thinking. He knew that most people will do almost anything instead of the difficult work of thinking, especially if they do not think very often. But he knew, too, that thinking can give men enjoyment and pleasure.‎ Edison could not understand how anyone could be uninterested in life. As he loved to think, he also loved to work. On the day he became 75 years old, someone asked him what ideas he had about life. “Work,” he answered. “Discovering the secrets of nature and using them to make men happier.” He said he had enough inventions in his mind to give him another 100 years of work.‎ ‎42．Edison thought ____________.‎ A． he could be happy if he was a genius B． genius plays the most important part in one’s success C． hard work could do better than genius D． genius could do better than hard work ‎43．Edison was _____________.‎ A． very much interested in nature B． interested in discovering the secrets of nature C． interested in changing people’s ideas D． uninterested in making people happier by discovering the secrets of nature ‎44．In Edison’s opinion, ______________.‎ A． thinking can supply people with enjoyment and pleasure as well as help B． people’s success lies mostly in genius C． hard work is the second important thing in making people successful D． there are few secrets for him to discover later ‎45．The last sentence in the passage most probably implies __________.‎ A． life is too short for Edison to invent more for human beings B． Edison made 100 inventions in his life C． Edison was able to live and work for 100 years D． people of his time were ready to give Edison another 100 years’ work 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Ways to Take Care of Your Books What do you do to take care of the books in your library?
