When my family moved to the United States from Colombia I was 9 years old and knew little about English As time passed teachers finally knew all of their students and slowly everyone began to head inside except for me No one called out my name and no one seemed to know I existed I spent the next month in my new classroom quietly I felt a wave of fear loneliness and sadness came over me
It turned out the school administration never cared that I didn't speak English but something else was teaching me English Every morning when my aunt drove me to school and picked me up she always had 1067 Light FM on It was this station that introduced my young ears to the English sounds of R&B soul jazz and much more
Because of Sabrina theTeenage Witch I learned the differenc e betweenwitchandwhichWhile watching the TV show SouthPark I was attracted by the funny characters I relatedYou bastards to anger and saved it in my mental word bank In fact thanks to pop culture the world of English became readily available to me while it was being turned down at school
I also learned how to express my emotions thanks to pop culture One day at school we were taking a math quiz and the whole class was quiet Suddenly the tip of my pencil broke and I yelled You bastards Everyone held their breath in surprise and I laughed to myself because something at that moment told me I had just learned my first bad word in English

"For people who are anxious about mathposture(姿 势)makes giant differencesaid Professor of Health Education Erik Peper The slumpedover(趴)position shuts them down and their brains do not work well They cannot think clearly Before the study began students filled out an anonymous questionnaire asking them to rate their anxiety levels while taking exams and performing maththey also described any physical symptoms of stress they experienced during test taking
According to coauthor Associate Professor of Health Education Richard Harvey slumping over is a defensive posture that can cause old negative memories in the body and brain While the students without math anxiety did not report as great a benefit from better posture they did find that doing math while slumping over was somewhat more difficultYou have a choicesaid Peper It’s about using an upright(垂直) position to improve your focus
That upright position could be particularly helpful o students facing the challenge calledstereotype(陈规旧)threat said Lauren Mason one of the paper 's authors and a recent SF State graduate Mason said she has benefited personally from using a more upright posture before taking difficult tests including math She believes that adopting a more confident posture could help other firstgeneration students as well as women entering science and math who often battle stereotype threat too
Mason said the study results prove a simple way to improve many aspects of life especially when stress is involved The way we carry ourselves and interact in space influences not only how others think of us but also how we think of ourselves
Peper and Harvey say these findings about body position can help people prepare for many different types of performance under stress not just math tests Athletes musicians and public speakers can all benefit from better posture before and during their performance
28 What can be learned from Paragraph 2
A Most students have math anxiety
B Slumping over worsens math anxiety
C Body position may leave others a certain impression
D Students are reported to have benefited greatly from better posture
29 How can students handlestereotype threat
A By using confident postures B By focusing on difficulties
C By asking professionals for help D By learning from science graduates
30 What do Mason's words in Paragraph 4 suggest
A We should face math problems bravely
B Leaving a good impression is important in our life
C We need to show a positive attitude to interactions
D Changing posture is an easy way to handle stress in life
31 What is a common idea of Peper and Harvey
A Practices of better body position can be widely applied
B Different types of posture are necessary to build confidence
C Full preparations for types of performance can reduce worries
D The upright position can arouse students' interest in school courses
D
Early childhood is the best possible time to learn a second language Children who experience two languages from birth typically become native speakers of both But the question remains Is it confusing for babies to learn two languages at the same time
My partners and I recently studied the brain processing of language sounds in 11montholdbabies from monolingual(English only) and bilingual (SpanishEnglish)homes We found some key differences between babies raised in monolingual versus bilingual homes At 11 months of age just before most babies begin to say their first words the brain recordings showed that Babies from monolingual English households are specialized to process(处理)the sounds of English and not the sounds of Spanish an unfamiliar language Babies from bilingual SpanishEnglish households are specialized to process the sounds of both languages Spanish and English
Our findings show that babies'brains become sensitive to whatever language or la nguages they hear from their caregivers A monolingual brain becomes sensitive to the sounds of one language and a bilingual brain becomes sensitive to the sounds of two languages By 11 months of agethe activity in the baby brain reflects the language or languages that they have been exposed to
It is now understood that the constant need to shift(转移)attention between languages leads to several cognitive(认知) advantages Research has found that bilingual adults and children show an improved executive functioning of the brain that is they are able to shift attention switch between tasks and solve problems more easily There is evidence that being bilingual makes the learning of a third language easier Further the effects of twolanguage experience are thought to translate into protective effects against cognitive decline with aging and the attack of Alzheimer
’s disease
So if you want your child to know more than one language it's best to start at an early age before they even start speaking their first language It won't confuse your child and it could even help himher improve other forms of cognition
32 What does the study on the 11monthold babies mainly show us
A Babies can learn languages as early as eleven months old
B Babies are able to react to the sounds of different languages
C Babies refuse to process an unfamiliar language
D Babies are gifted in language learning
33 What can we learn from Paragraph 4
A Bilingual children may have better learning ability than bilingual adults
B Learning a new language can help cure cognitive decline
C Bilingual children can focus on one task for long
D Being bilingual can improve the cognitive ability
34 In the last paragraph the author aims to ______
A give parents some advice on childcare
B show us how to begin to learn languages
C tell us how to improve our cognitive ability
D give parents tips on children's language learning
35 What can best describe the structure of the passage
A①②③④⑤ B①②③④⑤
C①②③④⑤ D ①②③④⑤
