Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer
to each of the questions.
Many children have music classes when they attend school. So how exactly can children
benefit from studying music?
According to some studies, musical training can develop the part of children's brain that is
involved with languages, so they can understand their own language better. It could also help
with learning a second language. What's more, children who have studied music also seem to
score better in other areas. For example, reading music includes learning about quarter and half
notes, which are basically fractions, like in mathematics. And when children are learning about
rhythm, they are counting the notes in a piece of music. So these school subjects seem to be
connected.
Music can also let children explore new ideas, think in a creative way, and and gain
confidence. If they are learning the guitar, it can be really exciting when they can invent their

own pieces of music. Moreover, when they do that, they are also practicing their listening skills
because they have to listen carefully to the music they are making. This is particularly important
when they perform with other people.
One of the biggest benefits, of course, is that listening to music helps children to be less
stressed. And creating music can make them feel the same way. And who knows? Maybe their
musical knowledge will open up a greater career path for them in the future.
