[Note: This is an extract from a Part 1 text about the scientist Marie Curie.]
From childhood, Marie was remarkable for her prodigious memory, and at the age of 16
won a gold medal on completion of her secondary education. Because her father lost his
savings through bad investment, she then had to take work as a teacher. From her
earnings she was able to finance her sister Bronia’s medical studies in Paris, on the
understanding that Bronia would, in turn, later help her to get an education.
In 1891 this promise was fulfilled and Marie went to Paris and began to study at the
Sorbonne (the University of Paris). She often worked far into the night and lived on little
more than bread and butter and tea. She came first in the examination in the physical
sciences in 1893, and in 1894 was placed second in the examination in mathematical
sciences. It was not until the spring of that year that she was introduced to Pierre Curie.

Bilingualism
The evidence is clear: Bilingualism can lead to a number of benefits. Being able to speak two
languages has obvious practical benefits such as being able to communicate with others in an ever
increasing globalised world, but there are also cognitive benefits. Evidence has shown that both
languages interact with each other and help to develop a person’s brain function because even when
someone is speaking one language, the brain can process information in the other language. There
are also a number of health benefits that can be derived from being bilingual, such as the ability to
recover from a stroke more quickly, or it can even slow down the effects of dementia.
What is the best age to learn another language? There seems to be a consensus among most
experts that learning two languages from an early age is most effective because they unconsciously
acquire the second language with ease, although there is no reason why adults cannot learn a
second language later in life and become bilingual.
Do the statements below agree with the views expressed in the passage?
Answer YES, NO or NOT GIVEN.
3. All experts agree that learning two languages is most successful as a child.
