C/ Many students listen to music while they are studying, and say that it helps them learn. Many parents
and teachers say that music is just distracting, and that students are better studying in silence. Who is right?
In a study, some scientists asked three groups of students to listen to a piece of music by Mozart or a
relaxation tape for ten minutes, or just sit in silence for ten minutes. The students then did a ‘spatial
reasoning’ test (a test about remembering shapes and imagining looking at objects from different
directions), and the ones who had listened to the Mozart did better in the test.

to remember words). The longer the training lasts, the better the improvement in the memory. So, there’s
no excuse to give up the piano lessons!
