Sometimes, they are first【S7】______to a second language in high school when it is of ten difficult for them to master a second language. Newsweek supports this claim when ii notes that "A child taught a second language after age ten is unlikely ever to speak it like a【S8】______." Research supports this notion. Positron Emission Tomography(PET)scans show that by age four children’s brains are twice as【S9】______as adult brains. This【S10】______level of activity makes it easier for children to learn a second language.
