Kids are far better than adults at learning how to speak multiple languages. Research now shows that very young infants might have some of the best language skills of all.

A new study suggests that babies between 4 and 6 months old can tell the difference between two languages just by looking at the speaker's face.They don't need to hear word.Sometimes between 6-8 months of age, babies raised in homes where just one language is spoken lose this ability.Babies from bilingual(双语的) homes, on the other hand, keep the face-reading ability until they're at least 8 months old.
Researchers in Canada studied 36 babies from English-speaking families.Twelve of the babies were 4 months old,12 were 6 months old, and the rest were 8 months old.Each baby sat on his or her mother's lap and watched video clips(电影片断) of a woman talking.The woman was fluent in both English and French.In some clips, she read from a storybook in English.In other clips, she read in French.In all of the videos there was no sound.
