That is, they believe that children learn more easily and efficiently than adults. Thus, at some point in our lives, maybe around age 12 or 13, we lose the abilit
26、y to learn languages well. Is this idea fact or myth (神话)?Is it true that children learn a foreign language more efficiently than adults? On the contrary, research studies suggest that the opposite may be true. One report, on 2,000 Danish children studying Swedish, concluded that the teenagers learn
27、ed more, in less time, than the younger children. Another report, on Americans learning Russian, showed a direct improvement of ability over the age range tested; that is, the ability to learn increased as the age increased, from childhood to adulthood.There are several possible explanations for the
28、se findings. For one thing, adults know more about the world and therefore are able to understand meanings more easily than children. Moreover, adults can use logical thinking to help themselves see patterns in the language. Finally, adults have more self-discipline (自律) than children.All in all, it
29、 seems that the common idea that children are better language learners than adults may not be fact, but myth.26.

34、 页 第 8 页 共 16 页they also try to bring to the surface the ships themselves, or parts of them. The value of different kinds of metals has increased greatly over the last twenty or thirty years and even though a ship has been under the sea for many years, it may be worth a great deal.One famous sunken
35、ship is the “Lusitania“, which sank off the southern coast of Ireland in 1915 with a loss of nearly 15,000 lives. It has four huge propellers (推进器) made of an expensive metal.

36、hn Light. He paid about $12,000 for the whole ship. He hopes to bring up those propellers and sell them.

37、Swedish ship. The ship itself is worth at least $30,000,000 and in addition she was carrying over $48,000,000 in money and many other valuable things.

41、lePassage ThreeMost people feel stress at some time in their lives. Some people like this pressure and work better because of it.
