22、meIs there a way to quickly recall（回忆）information just before taking an exam? Walking backwards might be a solution.

23、hing the video, the volunteers were split（分成） into three groups. One group was told to walk 10 meters forward. The second group walked 10 meters backwards. The third group stood in one place. All three groups were then asked 20 questions about what they saw in the video. The scientists found that th

24、e backward-walking group got two more answers correct than the other two groups.This suggests that the link between the concepts（概念）of time and space is important in terms of how our minds form memories. “Time is really expressed via（通过）space,” Aleksandra, who led the study, told the Daily Mail. Whe

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

40、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 th

41、e 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

42、world and 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 ages of two and thirty-four.
