How can you remember a song from your childhood to this day Why does your teacher use songs to teach you English It seems there is a scientific reason for this.
Researchers are now studying the relationship (关系) between music and remembering a foreign language.
“Singing could be a new way of learning a foreign language. The brain (大脑) likes to remember things when they are used in a catchy and meaningful way. For example, kids can learn difficult words quickly when they are put in a song.” said Dr. Karen. The findings may help those who have trouble learning foreign languages. On his blog, Dr. Ludke writes, “A listen-and-repeat singing way can support foreign language learning and opens the door for future research (研究) in this area.”
Many language teachers know the importance of using music and singing. Hua Zhuying, a teacher at a Chinese language school in the USA uses songs to teach Chinese. She says, “I use music all the time to teach children Chinese. For little kids usually we use the music. Not only does it work, but it is fun for kids.”
“Sometimes I think if I learn English that way when I was young, maybe I could speak much better English than now.” Hua Zhuying adds.
Our brain likes music, especially (尤其) for remembering. So if you are still having trouble learning a language, why not try singing it out
49．According to the passage, the best way to remember a foreign language is to ________.
A．remember the words in a song B．read more and write more
C．copy the words many times D．listen to the teacher carefully
50．The underlined word “catchy” probably means “________”.
A．困难的 B．无聊的 C．放松的 D．容易记住的

A．reading the words again and again B．using a listen-and-repeat singing way
C．writing songs with the language D．listening to all kinds of famous music
52．The passage mainly tells us that ________.
A．many researchers realize the importance of language learning
B．many language teachers know the importance of famous music
C．your brain remembers a language better if you sing it
D．you will never learn a language well if you can not sing

On his blog, Dr. Ludke writes, “A listen-and-repeat singing way can support foreign language learning and opens the door for future research (研究) in this area.”
Many language teachers know the importance of using music and singing. Hua Zhuying, a teacher at a Chinese language school in the USA uses songs to teach Chinese. She says, “I use music all the time to teach children Chinese. For little kids usually we use the music. Not only does it work, but it is fun for kids.”
“Sometimes I think if I learn English that way when I was young, maybe I could speak much better English than now.” Hua Zhuying adds.
