People used to think that learning two languages created confusion in the mind. Far【C1】________it was thought, to get one right than bother with two. An even more extreme and【C2】________view was that learning two languages caused a kind of mental illness or dual personality.
Some studies did seem to【C3】________the idea that learning two languages could be problematic; early researchers noted that bilingual people tended to have smaller vocabularies and slower access to words. But these myths and【C4】________disadvantages have now been overshadowed by a【C5】________of new research showing the【C6】________psychological benefits of learning another language. And these extend way【C7】________being able to order a cup of coffee abroad or ask directions to your hotel.
First, Language centers in the brain actually grow as a result of successful language learning. The better you learn, the more those【C8】________areas of the brain grow. Second, bilingualism【C9】________Alzheimer’s disease in susceptible people by as much as five years. Seems unbelievable,【C10】________the studies are continuing to support this result. Third, being bilingual can lead to【C11】________listening skills, since the brain has to work harder to recognize different types of sounds in two or more languages. Fourth, you may become more language【C12】________. Infants in bilingual households can distinguish languages they’ve never even【C13】________before. Just being【C14】________the different sounds in, for example, Spanish and Catalan, helps them tell the difference between English and French. Fifth, it can【C15】________your memory. Babies brought up in a bilingual environment have stronger working memories than those brought up【C16】________only one language. Sixth, bilingual people can【C17】________from one task to another more quickly. Seventh, bilinguals have stronger control over their【C18】________and are better able to limit distractions. Furthermore, it can help develop new ways of seeing and improve your first language etc.
These are all quite apart from the benefits of【C19】________yourself in another culture, and of seeing your own culture from the【C20】________of another. You may well get something like ’a second soul’ from learning another language.
【C11】
选项
A、concentrated
B、improved
C、mended
D、focused
答案
B
解析
本句所填入之词是后半句since引导的原因状语从句的结果,大脑更努力运行来分辨不同语音的结果是听力技能的提高,因此选B项improved“提高的”。A项concentrated“集中的,全力以赴的”、C项mended“修理的,改正的”都不能用来形容skills。D项focused作形容词时意为“聚焦的”,也不能与skills搭配。
