Their brains are better switchers.
他们大脑转换得更快。
Bilingual kids may be speedier at switching between tasks, according to a Child Development study. The study involved having bilingual and monolingual children look at images of animals or depictions of colors on a computer screen. When the children were asked to press a button to switch between images of animals to images of colors, the bilingual children did this faster than the monolingual children.
根据一项《儿童发展》的研究,会讲两种语言的小孩可能可以更快地转换任务。研究中,会讲两种语言和只会讲一种语言的孩子看着电脑屏幕上动物的图片或者彩色的描绘。当孩子们被要求按下按钮在动物图片和彩绘图片中切换时,和只会一种语言的孩子相比,会讲两种语言的孩子们完成得更快。
