这是来自CAL：The Center for Applied Linguistics 组织的一份报告，较为清楚的说明了为什么，如何和什么时候让孩子学第二门语言。

其中的一些数据我个人也是第一次看到，感到很震惊，
Students of foreign languages tend to score higher on standardized tests. Results from the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) show that students who had studied a foreign language for 4 or more years outscored other students on the verbal and math portions of the test (The College Board SAT, 2003).
学过4年或是以上外语的学生，在SAT I 的verbal and math部分比其他学生的考分高。
而且
A study by Horn and Kojaku (2001) shows that students who were in “rigorous” programs in high school, which included 3 years of foreign language study, were likely to earn better grades in college and less likely to drop out.
同时：
Learning another language can enhance knowledge of English structure and vocabulary (Curtain & Dahlberg, 2004).
什么年龄学习最佳，在
Is younger really better? 一段中有阐述。
这样的文章，在阐述观点是，都是提供研究数据来作为依据，后面的references 部分可以找到数据和研究来源。
