问题     Speaking two languages rather than just one has obvious practical benefits in an increasingly globalized world. But in recent years, scientists have begun to show that the advantages of bilingualism are even more fundamental than being able to converse with a wider range of people. Being bilingual, it turns out, makes you smarter. It can have a profound effect on your brain, improving other skills not related to language.
    This view of bilingualism is remarkably different from the understanding of bilingualism through much of the 20th century. Researchers, educators and policy makers long considered a second language to be an interference that hindered a child’s academic and intellectual development.
    But this interference, researchers are finding out, isn’t so much a handicap as a blessing in disguise. It forces the brain to resolve internal conflict, giving the mind a workout that strengthens its ability of knowledge acquisition. The bilingual experience appears to influence the brain from infancy to old age and there is reason to believe that it may also apply to those who learn a second language later in life.
选项
答案     在日益全球化的世界里，会说两种语言比只会说一种语言具有明显的实际好处。但是近年来，科学家开始证实，熟谙两种语言有着比能够与更多的人交流还要重要的优势。事实证明，会说两种语言让人变得更聪明。掌握双语会对人的大脑产生深远的影响，还能提高与语言无关的其他能力。
    有关双语能力的这种观点，与20世纪大部分时间里人们对双语的理解有着明显的不同。长期以来，研究人员、教育工作者和决策者都认为第二语言是一种干扰，会阻碍儿童的学业和智力发展。
    但是研究人员现在发现，这种干扰与其说是障碍，倒不如说由此而得福。它迫使大脑去解决内部冲突，使脑筋活动起来，从而增强获得知识的能力。从幼年到老年，使用双语的经历似乎都在影响人的大脑，而且有理由相信，这种情况同样适用于在成年以后才学习第二语言的人。
