_[1]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?
[2]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.
[3]The researchers also found the effect is greater on the younger people who learn a second language.
[4]A team led by Dr. Andrea Mechelli, from University College London, took a group of Britons who only spoke English. They were compared with a group of “early bilinguals(通两种语言的人)”, who had learnt a second language before the age of five, as well as a number of later learners.
[5]Scans showed that grey matter density（密度）in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without___________________. But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language, the smaller the difference was.
[6] “Our findings suggest that the structure of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language,” said the scientists.
[7]It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn.

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.”

阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题。

       I have been a friend of Bill Gates for a long time．I know him when he was a student at Harvard University．We were surprised when he left University to set up his own company “Microsoft” and make his own software．But he was the clever one! He is very good at writing computer languages and almost all computers now use Microsoft software．The program “Word” is used from Britain to China！

       Of course he has made a lot of money and that makes people very jealous．They want to stop his success．Even the government is against him and has tried to break his company into two parts．The government says that it is unfair to other people who want to sell similar software. And what’s more, because he fits his new software free in every new computer, the government says he is stopping other companies from selling their programs．This is not fair．Everyone should be able to do what they can to make their company bigger and stronger．Bill Gates has only done what he can to stop other competitors．

       He is very rich, but he is generous．He has given millions of dollars to help the education and health of many children around the world．You could not meet a better man than Bill Gates．
