We know music is very important in our daily life. Do you notice music playing at any of those places when you go somewhere Today most stores, stations, restaurants and other places play music. You might even hear music in an office or on a farm.
Scientists believe that music influences(影响) the way people behave(表现). They think that the sound of western classical(古典) music makes people feel richer. When a restaurant plays classical music, people spend more money on food and drinks. When the restaurant plays modern music, people spend less money. Without music, people spend even less.
Scientists also believe that loud, fast music makes people eat faster. Some restaurants play fast music during their busy hours. This makes people eat faster and leave quickly. Restaurants can make more money in this way.
Some scientists think that music makes you think and learn better. They say that music helps students to be more active. It is true that people learn better when they are relaxed. And listening to music can help you relax.

It might be a surprise to hear that being bored sometimes is good for kids. 1.
Boredom(无聊) can help kids understand the world around them. Kids have strong curiosity(好奇心) about the things that adults take for granted, like the colors of a butterfly and the noises of a truck. 2. If you never get bored, you never discover how interesting the world really is.
Kids’ brains need to stay active, but they need downtime, too. 3. It is helpful. Make sure that you have a couple of afternoons or evenings per week when you don’t have an organized activity.
4. Thinking out of the box(打破陈规) can help you solve problems that seem small to adults, but are huge to you. If your schedules and brains are always filled with activities, you’ll have no need to imagine a story, wonder how things work, etc.
Of course, being bored all the time isn’t healthy. 5. It’s different for every kid and every family, and it may take some time to find out where your line is. It can be hard to be bored. But it will achieve something else important: developing you into interesting, funny, thoughtful people who can have dinner time conversations and deal with long car rides. That’s good for you and your family.
