Read the text about the influence of travel on brainpower and match each paragraph (A-E) with the correct headings.

Travel broadens the mind, but can it change the brain?

A. Research shows that taking a gap year or going abroad can positively influence your brain and make it more open to new ideas. Traveling abroad, you can make new friends and gain stories to tell. But that’s not all: you can also improve your brainpower.

B. It is suggested by research that those who have lived abroad are more creative. Evidence has been found to support this argument. “Someone who lives abroad and doesn’t immerse in the local culture will likely get less of a creative boost than someone who travels abroad and really engages in the local environment,” he says.

C. The results also showed that when they returned home after traveling, travelers also tended to show an increase in openness to new experiences, agreeableness and emotional stability. Tom Champion, 26, a student from the University of Sheffield who is studying in Singapore for 18 months, says he has become more accepting and compassionate since living abroad. “Seeing the world through a foreigner’s eyes has led me to realize my previously invisible cultural habits and gain an ability to understand others,” he says.

D. Moving abroad also allows young adults to gain a sense of responsibility and independence. Nikitha Aithal moved to the UK from India, and later worked in Spain for a year as part of her undergraduate language degree. She says: “Living and working in Spain made me understand the difficulties my parents went through when moving to the UK – simple things such as setting up a bank account or paying bills.”

E. So if you’re in the fortunate position of being able to choose whether or not to travel, why not take the plunge and explore the world – your brain will thank you for it.

List of headings	Paragraph
21. Willingness to accept new cultural values 22. Increased independence 23. A change of brain is not impossible 24. Creative thinking 25. Give it a try!
