The last few weeks of May is the perfect time when the severe weather conditions usually open up for a brief

12、 period of time.On one such day in May, there was a strange traffic jam of mountaineers as they navigated the “death zone” the deadliest trail to the summit. The severe overcrowding resulted in mishaps and loss of lives.Mountain climbing, which was once a sport for the fittest, has been crowded out

20、 Scientists are always learning about the human brain. Decades ago, experts believed that the brain developed during childhood and then kept that way for life.

21、A 2010 Swedish study tested two groups of people, one in the range of age 21 through 30 and another between 65 and 80. Remarkably, they found no significant differences in neuroplasticity (神经可塑性). In other words, this suggests that its possible for you to learn new things at any age.Besides being po

22、ssible to learn languages: research also suggests that it improves the adult brain in general.

What can we learn from the text?A. Children can learn a language more easily.B. Adults can learn a language even at old age.C.

26、 The learning apps like Mondly are good for children.D. Adults can learn a language more easily after learning Chinese.26. What will the text refer to next?A.
