But it’s not clear why that might be the case. Now, a study of 74 Chinese kindergarteners suggests six months of piano lessons can heighten the brain’s response to changes in pitch (声调). And kids who got piano lessons were also better at telling apart two similar-sounding Mandarin (普通话) words, which contained different consonants (辅音), than were students who got extra reading training or who went through regular kindergarten. Mandarin is a tonal language — the famous example is the word ma which can mean mother or horse depending on its pitch. So might musical training translate better to Mandarin than it would to English? Yeah, it’s possible that this influenced the results, said Robert Desimone, a neuroscientist (神经科学家) at the McGovern Institute at MIT. But he says other studies do back up the fact that music lessons benefit language learners, even in countries without tonal languages. “And what our study added on top of that was some idea of the neural basis for those benefits.” And if you don’t own a piano, don’t despair. The reading group actually did just as well on many measures as the piano group. “Reading’s pretty good actually. We don’t mean to disvalue reading instruction.” More important, he says, was to show piano wasn’t actually worse than reading for these kills... thus perhaps encouraging cash-strapped schools to bring their music programs alive. 1、Which of the following is true accor
