They may be men or women, boys or girls. If you feel like someone is following you, dont take a chance. Its better to be careful than to be put in danger. Always keep a safe distance from any strangers.Avoid making eye contact（接触） with the strangers. Try to look busy so this person will not feel as free to speak with you. Do not answer any stranger who stops and asks, “How do I get to?” If someone calls you from a car, dont answer him or her. Keep walking, cross the street, or change your way. Run away and scream for help if they stop the car. Tell someone right away if you think that you are being followed. Police officers are the best people to ask for help. Be aware（知道）of safe places in your neighborhood if there is emergency. Always stay in a well-lit area（光线亮的地方）where people are around. Do not go into your home or living place alone if you feel like you are being followed. This will show the stranger where you live. Then at once call your parents or a police officer. And try to remember what the stranger looked like: how tall he is, what color his hair is, what his age is about, and what this person was wearing. If they had a car, try to remember the color, what kind of car it was, and the license plate number or letter if you can remember. This is so you can help the police out with any information. Anything you remember will help the police. So remember to be careful and follow these rules to remain as safe as possible.54. If the stranger wants to talk to you, you _.

Havent 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(处理) 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, 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 makes the brain more flexible(灵活的) ,”he said, “You are actually going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas.”The findings were matched in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the age of two and 34. Reading, writing, and understanding were all tested. The results showed that the younger they started to learn, the better. ”Studying a language means that you get an entrance to another world,” explained the scientists. 57.In the second paragraph, the writer mentions “exercise ” in order to _.say language learning is also a kind of physical laborprove that one needs more practice when learning a languageshow the importance of using in language learningmake people believe language learning helps gray matter work well58.The underlined word “bilingual” probably means _.a researcher on language learninga second language learnera person who can speak two languages an active language learner59.We may know from the scientific findings that_.A. the earlier you start to learn a second language, the higher the gray matter density isthere is no difference between a later second language leaner and one not knowing a second languagethe experience of learning a second language has had effect on peoples brain the ability of learning a second language is changing all the time 60.What is the best title for this passage?A. Science on Learning a Second LanguageB. Mans Ability of Learning a Second LanguageC. Language Can Help Brain PowerD.
