A recent study by researcher Kraus shows that playing a musical instrument can improve a person's hearing ability. 11.________ The people in the first group were musicians，while those in the second group had no musical training. The musicians were able to hear the talking person more clearly.

12．________ Think about violinists in an orchestra(管弦乐队). When the violinists play with the group, they hear their own instrument and many others, too. But the violinists must listen closely to what they are playing, and pay no attention to the other sounds. In this way, musicians are able to focus on certain sounds, even in a room with lots of noise.

Schlaug, a doctor at Harvard Medical School, works with stroke(中风) patients. Because of their illness，these people cannot say their names, addresses, or other information normally. However, they can still sing. 13.________ Why does this work？Schlaug isn't sure. Music seems to make different parts of the brain work，including the damaged(损坏的) parts. This might help patients use that part of the brain again.

Music improves concentration(注意力)，memory，listening skills, and our overall language abilities. 14.________ Playing an instrument or singing can help us do better in school and keep our brain sharp(敏锐的) as we get older. Music is not only enjoyable but also good for us in many other ways.
