Now, in a new study, scientists have pinpointed the exact age at which your chances of reaching fluency in a second language seem to plummet: 10.The study, published in the journal Cognition, found that it's "nearly impossible, for language learners to reach native-level fluency if they start learning a second tongue after 10. But that doesn't seem to be because language skills go downhill. "It turns out you're still learning fhst. It's just that you run out of time, because your ability to learn starts dropping at around 17 or 18 years old," says study co-author Joshua Hartshorne, an assistant professor of psychology at Boston College.Kids may be better than adults at learning new languages for many reasons. Children's brains are more plastic than those of adults, meaning they're better able to adapt and respond to new information. 4kAll learning involves the brain changing," Hartshorne says, "and children's brains seem to be a lot more skilled at changing.,5Kids may also be more willing to try new things （and to potentially look foolish in the process） （han adults arc. Their comparatively new grasp on their native tongue may also be advantageous. Unlike adults, who tend to default （默认）to the rules and patterns of their first language, kids may be able to approach a new one with a blank slate （石板）.These findings may seem discouraging, but it was heartening for scientists to learn that the critical period for fluent language acquisition might be longer than they previously thought. Some scientists believed that the brief window closes shortly after birth, while others stretched it only to early adolescence. Compared to those estimates, 17 or 18 when language learning ability starts to drop off seems relatively old."People fared better when they learned by immersion （沉浸），rather than simply in a classroom. And moving to a place where your desired language is spoken is the best way to learn as an adult. If that's not an option, you can mimic an immersive environment by finding ways to have conversations with native speakers in （heir own communities,n Hartshorne says. By doing so, it's possible to become conversationally proficient even without the advantage of a child's brain.i. The underlined word "plummet'' in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to "A. decreaseB. riseC. endD. vary2. What can be inferred from Joshua Hartshorne's words?A. Children are too young to grasp a second language.B. Age 10-18 is the best time to learn a second language.C. Adults go beyond the critical period for learning a second language.D. Communicating with native speakers enables you to master all the language skills.3. Why adults can't reach native-level fluency in a second language?A. Adults are less influenced by their mother tongues.B. Adults spend more time responding to new information.C. Adults arc only too willing to experience something awkward in the process.D. Adults prefer an immersive environment to a classroom in learning a second language.4. The passage is mainly about.A. the best age to learn a second languageB. the approaches to learning a second languageC. why kids learn a second language more easily than adultsD. whether adults can learn a second language like their younger selves【答案】1. A 2.C3. D 4. C【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章通过研究发现，介绍了为什么孩子比大人更容易学会一门新的语言。1. 词义猜测题。根据第段划线词所在句"Now, in a new study, scientists have pinpointed the exact age at which your chances of reaching fluency in a second language seem to plummet: 10."再根据第二段中“The study, published in the journal Cognition, found that it's "nearly impossible, fbr language learners to reach native-level fluency if they start learning a second tongue after IO."可知，此处表示的是 10 岁以后才学习第二 语言想达到流利水平的机会就会卜降，因此猜测划线词plummet意为“下降，降低”。故选A项。2. 推理判断题。根据第二段中“It turns out you're still learning fast. It's just that you run out of time, because your ability to leam starts dropping at around 17 or 18 years old," says study co-author Joshua Hartshorne, an assistant professor of psychology at Boston College.以及第三段中"All learning involves the brain changing/5 Hartshorne says, "and children's brains seem to be a lot more skilled at changing."可知，乔舒亚哈特肖恩认为 成年人己经错过了学习第二语言的关键时期。故选C项。3. 细节理解题。根据最后-段中“People fared better when they learned by immersion (沉浸),rather than simply in a classroom. And moving to a place where your desired language is spoken is the best way to learn as an adult./5 Hartshorne says.可知，成年人在学习第二语言时更应该选择身临其境的环境而不是在教室里。故选 D项。4. 主旨大意题。根据第段中"Now, in a new study, scientists have pinpointed the exact age at which your chances of reaching fluency in a second language seem to plummet: 10."； 第二段中"The study, published in (he journal Cognition, found that it's "nearly impossible, fbr language learners to reach native-level fluency if they start learning a second longue after 10., ；第三段中"Kids may be better than adults al learning new languages fbr many reasons.”。再通读全文，可知，本文主要是介绍了研究发现了为什么孩子比大人更容易学会第二门新 的语言。因此选项 C“why kids learn a second language more easily than adults''符合题意。故选 C 项。BFor the past few months, my three-year-old daughter has spent an hour every week learning a foreign language. She walks into a small room in a local school, where she and a handful of three and four-year-old spend the next hour dancing to La Vaca Lola", a song about a Spanish cow, creating finger puppets(木偶)to voice what they like and don't like (me gusta, no me gusta) and shouting out which animals are big (grande) or small (pequeno).She tells us little about the classes. In fact, for the first few weeks, nothing at all. I begin to wonder if it was a huge mistake (each lesson works out at about £9) but then I show her “La Vaca Lola" on . She shouts vaca with enthusiasm and with what I hope is a Spanish accent.The wish to enroll(使加入)her in language lessons came, like most things, gradually and then in asudden rush. In my day job, I read and edit stories about the Chinese economy. For a long time, I felt that it would be good for her to learn another language but I had no great plan as to when.Then I read Edward Luce's The Retreat of Western Liberalism and all my thoughts and worry about the economy combined into a panic. Waking in a sweat, it seemed obvious that if my daughter was to have any kind of future, she would have to leam another language. Ideally (理想地)immediately.I thought about Mandarin Chinese, one of the top 10 languages most important for our future, according to the British Council (others include Arabic, French. German, Portuguese, Italian, Russian, Dutch and Japanese). But there were no classes for young children nearby. There were, however, local Spanish classesthe number-one language on the list. When she started to sing 'Tncy Wincy Spider" in Spanish and Englishhelped by a Spanish nursery worker-our decision was made.5. What can wc learn about the author's daughter from the first paragraph?A. She uses finger puppets to make her voice heard.B. She is the oldest student in her Spanish class.C. She learns Spanish by dancing to songs.D. She has learnt Spanish for one month.6. How did the author feel about her daughter's class at first?A. Proud.B. Surprised.C. DelightedD. Doubtful.7. Why did the author ask her daughter to learn a foreign languag
