Unit 5 Music

　　Ⅰ.阅读理解

　　(2015·河南省八市重点高中教学质监测)

　　School is much more than a place where students gather to learn. For children, school is their first opportunity for social development and introduction to people outside of their family unit. Lessons learned in school go beyond mathematics and language arts. Students learn to develop individual interests and find

　　other people who share their interests.

　　Music is one of the ways like­minded children come together. When many people talk about the benefits of music education, they're quick to point out all of the numerous and measurable results of music education: many studies show the positive impact music programs can have on children in other areas of study.

　　Dr. Laurel Trainor, a professor of psychology, at McMaster University, has said young children who take music lessons show different brain development and improved memory compared to children who do not receive musical training. Stanford University researchers have found that musical training improves how the brain processes the spoken word, a finding that researchers say could lead to improving the reading ability of children who have dyslexia and other reading problems.

　　Furthermore, in an analysis of data on more than 25,000 secondary school students, researchers at the United States Department of Education found that students who report consistent involvement in instrumental music during middle school and high school perform significantly better in mathematics.
