6．If you think English means endless new words，difficult grammar and sometimes strange pronunciation，you are wrong．Haven't you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a language？
According to a new study by a British university，learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power．Researchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter． This is the area of the brain which processes information．It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles（肌肉）．
The study also found the effect is greater when the younger people learn a second language．A team led by Dr．Andrea Mechelli，from University College London，（UCL） took a group of Britons who only spoke English．They were compared with a group of"early bilinguals"，who had learnt a second language before the age of five，as well as a number of later learners．Scans showed that grey matter density（密度）in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language．But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language，the smaller the difference．"Our findings suggest that the structure of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language，"said the scientists．
It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn．Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales，has researched the link between bilingualism and maths skills．"Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible，"he said，"You are actually going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas．"
The findings had the same result in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of 2 and 34．Reading，writing and comprehension were all tested．The results showed that the younger they started to learn，the better．"Studying a language means you get an entrance to another world，"explained the scientists．

32． What does the underlined part"grey matter"（in Paragraph 2）refer to？B

33．The experience of learning a second language canD．

B．improve one's maths skills
C．make one smarter than others
D．increase the ability to learn
34．We can learn from the passage thatB．
A．the researchers from UCL did another study in Italy
B．a similar study was done on native Italian speakers who learn English as a second language
C．the research done on the Italians showed a totally different result
D．it will be easier for one to travel around the world by learning a second language
35．What's the main idea of the passage？A
A．Learning a second language can help improve your brain power．
B．You should learn a second language that is not your native language．

D．The research done by the researchers from UCL is very successful．

13．Life is difficult．
It is a great truth because once we truly understand and accept it，then life is no longer difficult．Most do not fully see this truth．Instead they complain（抱怨） about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy．It seems to them that difficulties stand for a special kind of suffering especially forced on them or else on their families，their class，or even their nation．
What makes life difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one．Problems，depending on their nature，cause sadness，or loneliness（孤独） or regret or anger or fear．These are uncomfortable feelings，often as painful as any kind of physical pain．And since life causes a lot of problems，life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy．Yet，it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning．Problems are the serious test that tells us success from failure．When we want to encourage the growth of human spirit，we encourage the human ability to solve problems，just as in school we set problems for our children to solve．It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn．
As Benjamin Franklin said，"Those things that hurt，instruct（指导）．"It is for this reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems．
