Experts say children can begin learning a second language in preschool, and should begin before the age of ten to take advantage of young children’s natural ability to acquire language. This advantage is lost by the time most children encounter (遇到) a foreign language in the classroom, in middle school or high school.
Dr. Noble Goss, an assistant professor of Spanish and German at Harding University in Arkansas, says, "As a father of bilingual (双语的) children (My wife is Mexican), I know that not only it is easy for children to learn one or more languages, but they have an amazing way of separating them out more successfully than you would think. "
If a child hears two languages early, he accepts both equally. But if given a chance to speak both, can they be fluent in both?
Not everyone agrees that early childhood is the only time to start a language, however. Reeves, the chairman and founder of the Center for Performance Assessment in Denver, Colorado, points to the Defense Language Institute’s success at training adult students to speak other language fluently.
"The frequently quoted argument that post-adolescence (青春期后) is too late to acquire foreign language skills is still a mystery," says Reeves.
Still, if children are going to devote the six years or so of study it takes to master a second language, starting early just makes sense.
The phrase "make sense" in the last sentence probably means "______".
选项
A、starting early isn’t a good idea
B、starting early sounds reasonable
C、starting early makes one sensitive to language
D、starting early makes one acquire a language better
答案
B
解析
文章第一至三段说明儿童早点学外语的好处;第四至五段说明成人也可学好外语;最后一段 用Still开头,表示转折,是对第一至三段的肯定,因此根据最后一段可知,如果一个孩子想用六年左 右的时间学会一门外语,早点开始还是不错的,所以B“早点开始是有道理的”是正确的。
