20．New research findings show bilingual（able to speak two languages equally well） people are great at saving brain power．To do a task，the brain recruits different networks，or the highways on which different types of information flow，depending on the task to be done．A research team from Montreal，Canada，compared what are known as functional brain connections between seniors who are monolingual （speaking or using only one language） and seniors who are bilingual．The team established that years of bilingualism change how the brain carries out tasks that require concentrating on one piece of information without becoming distracted by other information．This makes the brain more efficient and economical with its resources．
To arrive at this finding，the team asked two groups of seniors （one of monolinguals and one of bilinguals） to perform a task that involved focusing on visual information （the color of an object） while ignoring spatial information （the position of the object）．The researchers compared the networks between different brain areas as people did the task．They found that monolinguals recruited a larger circuit with multiple connections，whereas bilinguals recruited a small circuit that was more appropriate for the required information．These findings were published in the Journal of Neurolinguistics．
"After years of daily practice managing interference between two languages，bilinguals become experts at selecting relevant information and ignoring information that can distract from a task．In this case，bilinguals showed higher connectivity between visual processing areas located at the back of the brain．This area is specialized in detecting the visual characteristics of objects and therefore is specialized in the task used in this study．These data indicate that the bilingual brain is more efficient and economical，as it recruits fewer regions and only specialized regions，"explained Dr．Ansaldo，the head of the team．
Bilinguals therefore have two cognitive （connected with mental processes of understanding） benefits．First，having more centralized and specialized functional connections saves resources compared to the multiple and more diverse brain areas allocated by monolinguals to accomplish the same task．Second，bilinguals achieve the same result by not using the brain's frontal regions，which are vulnerable to aging．This may explain why the brains of bilinguals are better equipped to stave off （to delay sth．） the signs of cognitive aging or dementia （a serious mental disorder caused by brain disease or injury）．
All the benefits of bilingualism have yet to be discovered．

27．According to the passage，which of the following statements is NOT true？B
A．Bilinguals are more efficient and economical with brain resources．
B．Monolinguals do better in focusing on a piece of information while performing a task than bilinguals do．
C．Daily practice of dealing with two languages enables bilinguals to effectively avoid being influenced by irrelevant information．
D．Monolinguals use larger brain areas and more connections when doing a task．
28．The benefits of being bilingual are the following EXCEPTA．
A．Bilingual people are unlikely to develop dementia when they grow old．
B．Bilingual people have the cognitive advantages．
C．Being bilingual is helpful to saving brain resources by using more centralized and specialized functional connections．
D．Bilingual people can accomplish the same task as monolinguals do without using the frontal areas of brain．
29．What is the main purpose of the passage？C
A．To tell readers the differences between bilinguals and monolinguals．
B．To present disadvantages of being monolingual．
C．To tell readers bilingualism can save brain resources．
D．To discuss how to become a bilingual．
30．What type of writing is this text？D
A．An argumentation
B．A news report
C．A descriptive essay
D．A scientific report．

7．People become quite illogical when they try to decide what can be eaten and what cannot be eaten．If you lived in the Mediterranean，for instance，you would consider octopus a great gift．You would not be able to understand why some people find it repulsive．On the other hand，your stomach would turn at the idea of frying potatoes in animal fat--the normally accepted practice in many northern countries．The sad truth is that most of us have been brought up to eat certain foods and we stick to them all our lives．
No creature has received more praise and abuse than the common garden snail．Cooked in wine，snails are a great luxury in various parts of the world．There are countless people who，ever since their early years，have learned to associate snails with food．My friend，Robert，lives in a country where snails are despised．As his flat is in a large town，he has no garden of his own．For years he has been asking me to collect snails from my garden and take them to him．
The idea never appealed to me very much，but one day，after a heavy shower，I happened to be walking in my garden when I noticed a huge number of snails taking a walk on some of my prize plants．Acting on a sudden impulse（冲动），I collected several dozen，put them in a paper bag，and took them to Robert．Robert was delighted to see me and equally pleased with my little gift．I left the bag in the hall and Robert and I went into the living room where we talked for a couple of hours．I had forgotten all about the snails when Robert suddenly said that I must stay for dinner．Snails would，of course，be the main dish．I did not fancy the idea and I reluctantly followed Robert out of the room．To our dismay，we saw that there were snails everywhere：they had escaped from the paper bag and had taken complete possession of the hall!I have never been able to look at a snail since then．

32．The underlined word"repulsive"in Paragraph 1 most probably means"A"．
A．disgusting
B．pleasant
C．acceptable
D．delicious
33．We can infer from Paragraph 3 that when collecting the snails，the authorB．
A．was glad that he could share them with his friend
B．was angry because they might damage his beloved plants
C．thought that they would make a delicious dish
D．was depressed because it was hard to catch them all
34．The author finds that snailsC．
A．are as delicious as octopus
B．are disliked in his hometown
C．are the most controversial food
D．are as popular as fried potatoes
35．The best title for the passage might beA．
A．One Man's Meat Is Another Man's Poison
