【英语时差8,16】音乐有助于提高记忆2

 So while children who study music for two years demonstrate better verbal memory than children who have not studied music, children who continue to study music continue to improve their verbal memory. The good news for those of us who trained on musical instruments but quit at some point is that we don’t seem to lose the verbal benefits we gain from this training. Scientists are particularly interested in what this suggests about the interconnectedness of the brain and thus the predictability of the effects of stimulation¹ to a brain area on cognitive² functions located in that area. Further research may lead to developments in cognitive rehabilitation³ for people with brain injuries. For example, in order to rebuild verbal memory in patients with injury to that part of the brain, doctors may prescribe music lessons.
