Never Skip Breakfast!

From experience I know that you should always eat breakfast before you go to school. On the few days that I skipped breakfast, I really suffered. After my first class I became extremely hungry. Soon after that I found it very difficult to concentrate on what the teacher was saying or what I was reading. Next my head began to throb. Unfortunately recess was still hours away. Dont let this happen to you! Make sure you eat breakfast before you go to school.

My Conclusion Being bilingual has significant advantages beyond simple communication. Bilinguals may use language centers of their brains even when theyre solving nonverbal problems, and they perform faster on some nonverbal tests than monolinguals do.

People who are fluent in two or more languages can distinguish more important from less important information better than monolinguals can.

For older people who have Alzheimers disease, being bilingual can mean that their symptoms will be delayed by five or six years.

Bilingual Benefits
Being bilingual has significant advantages beyond simple communication. Bilinguals may prioritize more easily. People who are fluent in two or more languages can distinguish more important from less important information better than monolinguals can. In addition, bilingualism can benefit problem solving. Bilinguals may use language centers of their brains even when theyre solving nonverbal problems, and they perform faster on some nonverbal tests than monolinguals do. Moreover, there are important benefits of bilingualism later in life. For older people who have Alzheimers disease, being bilingual can mean that their symptoms will be delayed by five or six years. Clearly, there are more benefits to learning another language than just being able to communicate with people from other countries.
