16、e, and in one way or another they are all reflections of todays changing world.After a year that was politically unstable (政治局面不稳定的), its not hard to understand the fact that peoples political views are one of the main drives of our enlarging vocabulary. One example is clicktivism, a compound of cli

24、age 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.

25、earn a second language. A team led by Dr. Andrea Mechelli, from University College London, took a group of Britons who only spoke English.

26、d 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
27、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 and makes the bra
28、in 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.

These are all wonderful reasons to read Dickens.Walk into any bookstore, and you can hardly avoid “bumping into” Charles Dickens.（查理.狄更斯）Many of Dickens works still sell well today. 31 As someone who teaches Dic
35、kens, the question of why we still read him is often on my mind. 32 One day nearly 10 years ago, however, when I was giving a lecture, I was telling the students that for Victorian readers, Dickenss writing was a “tune-in-next-week” type of thing that generated crazes. 33 “But why should we still re
36、ad this stuff?” the student asked. The answer I gave was only acceptable, “Because he teaches you how to think,” I said.The question annoyed me for years, and for years I told myself answers, but never with complete satisfaction. We read Dickens because he is not just a man of his own times, but als
37、o a man for our times. We read Dickens because we can learn from experiences of his characters almost as easily as we can learn from our own experiences. 34 But these are not exactly the reason why I read Dickens. My search for an answer continued until one day a text message came from a student of
38、mine. “We still read Dickenss novels,” she wrote, “because they tell us why we are what we are.” Simple as it was, thats the explanation I had sought for years. Dickens shines a light on who we are during the best of times and worst of times. 35 If you have time, go to pick up one of his many novels
