Many people believe that teaching children music makes them smarter, better able to learn new things. But the organizers of a new study say there's no scientific evidence that early musical training affects the intelligence of young people.
An estimated 80 percent of American adults think music lessons improve children's abilily to learn or their performance in school. They say that the satisfaction for learning to play a new song helps a child express creativity.
Researchers at Harvard University, however, have found that there's one thing musical training does not do. They say it does not make children more intelligent. Samuel Mehr is a graduate student at Harvard's School of Education. He said it is wrong to think that learning to play a musical instrument improves a child's intellectual development. He says the evidence comes from studies that measured the mental ability of two groups of 4-year-olds and their parents. One group attended music class, the other went to a class that places importance on the visual arts—arts that can be seen.
"The evidence there is 'no'. We found no evidence for any advantage on any of these tests for the kids participating in these music clases," said Mehr.Samuel Mehr says researchers have carried out many studies in an effort to learn whether musical training can make children smarter. He says the results have been mixed. He says only one study seems to show a small percentage increase in IQ, intellectual scores among students after one year of music lessons. He does not believe that IQ is a good measure of child's intelligence. He says researchers in his study compared how well children in the musical training group did on mental processing tasks or projects, then the results were compared to those of children who did not take lessons. There was no evidence that the musical training group did much better on the mental tasks than the other group.
The researchers comfirmed the results with a larger group of children and their parents.Mr Mehr says music lessons may not offer children a fast easy way to gain entry to the best schools later of their life. But he says the training is still important for cultural reasons. In his words, "We teach music because music is important for us."

Think you can walk, rive, take phone calls, email and listen to music at the same time? Well, New York’s new law says you can’t. and you I’ll be 41 $100 if you do it on a New York City street.
The law went into force last year, following recent research and a (n) 42 number of accidents that involved people using electronic devices when crossing the street.
Who’s to 43 ? scientists say that our multitasking（處理多重任務(wù)的）abilities are limited.
“We are under the impression that our brain can do more than it often can ,” says Rene Marois, a scientist in Tennessee. “But a major limitation is the inability to 44 on two things at once.”
The young are often considered the great multitaskers. However, an Oxford University research suggests this idea is open to question. A group of 18-to 21-year-olds and a group of 35-to 39-year-olds were given 90 seconds to translate 45 into numbers, using a simple code. The younger group did 10 percent better when not interrupted. But when both groups were interrupted by a phone cal or a (n) 46 message, the older group matched the younger group in speed and 47 .
It is difficult to measure the productivity lost by multitaskers. But it is probably a lot. It is estimated that the cost o interruptions to the American economy is nearly $650 lillion a year.
The 48 is based on surveys with office workers. The surveys conclude that 28 percent of the workers’ time was spent on interruptions and 49 time before they returned to their main tasks.

For most of us, dieting is an annoying fact life. With so much information available, it can be difficult to tell which weight-loss strategies really work. Let’s start by taking a look at some confusing myths (荒謬)。
1.All calories are created equal.
What you eat, not how much, is the main factor behind weight gain. In fact, the body burns many more calories digesting carbohydrates than it does digesting fat ,For every 100 calories of carbohydrates we consume in excess (超過)of our daily requirement ,only 75 are turned into body fat .But 97 of every 100 excess fat calories are turned into body fat .
2.Desserts and fast foods are forbidden.
Some experts advise against describing foods as “ good ”and “bad ”.Even cakes ,pies ,and ice cream can be worked into a diet, Moderation is the key. Besides ,a plain hamburger on a bun is still a healthful choice ,So is baked chicken or a green salad with low –cal,dressing. But watch out for French fries, and fried chicken of fish .
3.It makes no difference whether you’re top or bottom –heavy.
In fact ,where weight is distributed makes all the difference. Recent studies suggest that people who store fat on the upper body (apple shape )rather than on hips and thighs (大腿)腳（pear shape ）may have an increased rick of heart disease.There is probably little you can do to change how your body is genetically programmed to store fat ,But you can lost excess weight overall .
4.Fasting is the fastest diet .
Some studies suggest that suddenly reducing calorie intake puts the body into “starvation mode ”,which causes it to conserve calories and decreases the rate of digestion .The more often you deprive yourself of food ,the better your body may get at storing calories ,So ,in the long run ,repeated fasting may actually weaken your weight –loss efforts.
5.To keep weight off ,simply watch what you eat
According to studies ,exercise combined with dieting ensures weight loss better than dieting alone does. Experts also agree that having regular, moderate exercise is more important than occasional exercises. Researchers encourage patients to take the stairs instead of the elevator and park the car far from where you are going and walking.
6.It’s all your fault that you’re fat
Research at the University of Pennsylvania, School of Medicine indicates that body shape and size are in large part decided by a person’s genes. In short ,some people are naturally more likely to be fat than other.Moreover, someone who was fat in childhood will have more fat cells than a person of average weight. Once made, the cells may enlarge or shrink (縮小),but they never disappear.
Yet genes don’t have to control your shape ,The size of your fat cells depends on you ---- on your eating habits and lifestyle ,Most important ,before getting caught up in dietary myths ,let good sense shape your eating habits ,Your body will thank you for it .
1.Whci of the following statements is true?
A. All calories are created equal .
B. You can decide whether fat will be stored on your upper body or lower body.
C. While you are on a diet never eat desserts and fast food
D. The size of fat cells is decided by our eating habits and lifestyle
2.Which of the following statements is true about fat cells and genes?
A. Everyone has the same amount of fat cells .
B. The size of fat cells is fixed ,They won’t become bigger or smaller
C. Genes have nothing to do with obesity.
D. Where you store your fat is genetically decided
3.The main reason why the author writes this article is to ___________
A. give new ideas B. correct certain misunderstandings
C. encourage the readers to keep fit D. explain the concept of calories ,fat cells ,and genes
4.This article is ____________
A. descriptive B. creative C. persuasive D. educative
