The Bilingual Brain
Karl Kim and Joy Hirsch did a research in NewYork recently. This research is about adults and children who are learning a second language do not use the same parts of the brain. They used an instrument, fMRI, to study 2 groups of people----adults and children. One of the possible reasons is that children will combine all the sounds and structures in the same brain area. Another possibility is that adults may acquire languages in the different way.

Evy,

A summary is a short story about what the article is about in your own words. This summary is too long and I don't think that these are your words. They are words directly from the book.
ReplyDeleteUse the answers to the questions in the book to help you write your summary. Rewrite the summary so that I can give you points.

Hey Carol, I've already edited it. Is it a qualified summary?
DeleteThanks.
Your summary is too short. Did you answer the questions of who, what, when, where, how, and why?
ReplyDeletePlease write both of your summaries with the answers to the questions above. You should have at least 3-4 sentences in your summary.
I've edited them again, thank you for checking.
