  Traditionally at the Oscars we take a look back at the artists that our community has lost.This year we lost a true legend, Miss Catherine Hepburn.When one thinks of her, one immediately thinks of her irrepressible(抑制不住的)spirit, her swaggering confidence, but mostly her indomitable(不屈不挠的)sense of humor in the roles she played and in her own life.Who else would say of her craft, “Acting is the most minor of gifts and not a very high class way to earn a living.After all, Shirley Temple could do it at the age of four.”

  She was also a pioneer when it came to fashion.In a time when it was really quite radical she wore pants and became so famous for it that when Barbara Walters once interviewed her and asked her quite pointedly, “Kate, you always wear pants, do you even own a skirt?” Hepburn replied, “I have one, Miss Walters, I’ll wear it to your funeral.”

  Few people hate homework more than Alfie Kohn, author of The Homework Myth.There is a hot discussion across the country:does homework really improve school results? A growing number of educators say no.

  “We always think it is worth it,”says Kohn,“and homework will improve their school results and give them good study skills, but the research(研究)shows it is just not so.No study has ever found any academic benefit(学业上的成效)of assigning(布置)homework before kids are in high school.and even in high school the case is very weak.”

  But how could hours of reading, writing and solving math problems not help kids to learn? We asked tenth graders at the Galloway School, in Atlanta.

  “I learn everything that I need to in class,”says 16-year-old Matt Ritchie.“And it is really unnecessary to do homework.It is just boring.”

  “If I listen in class and take good notes, I usually do well on tests,”explains his classmate Paige Solomon,“So I don’t think it is helpful-if anything, it just makes me kind of fearful of going to that class.”

  “I’m usually in a bad mood when I have a lot of homework,”says 16-year-old Carter Parder,“because I stay up later.And then I’m groggy the next day.”

  According to Kohn, even if kids learn a little through homework, the cost is too high.Homework may kill a student’s interest in learning.If kids seem to be sinking(陷入)under a mountain of work, parents should intervene(干涉).Most adults wouldn’t want to work eight hours a day, and then come home to hours of extra work.Kids are no different.

does deep research into homework

If you want to increase your vocabulary, the best way to do it might be to pick up a guitar, or learn the violin. A new study shows that learning to play a musical instrument makes the brain more able to remember words.

       “Grown-ups with music training in their childhood can have better memory for words,” said Dr Agnes Chan of the Chinese University of Hong Kong, who did the research. “They can remember things that you tell them better than those who did not have music training when they were young.”

       It seems that one can remember spoken words because his brain has a special part. “That part of the brain is larger in musicians than in non-musicians,” Dr Chan told BBC. “If that part of the brain is larger, it may be better developed and so this explains very nicely our results.”

       Dr Chan and her workmates came to their conclusion after studying students. Their research is reported in the latest edition of the journal(杂志) Nature. “We did the experiment with 60 girl college students from our university and 30 of them have at least six years training with one western musical instrument (such as the violin and the piano) before the age of 12. The other 30 had received no music training. We tested their memory by reading them some words and asking them to remember these words—a very common test for memory. We found that people who have had music training can remember about 70% more information than those who have not had any music training.”

       Dr Chan thinks the process(过程) of learning is more important than the actual instrument used. She also believes if one is able to remember words through learning to play instruments, he or she could have some very real benefits. Dr Chan thinks this could be developed into a medical way for patients who are suffering from memory loss.

According to the writer, learning to play a musical instrument helps to ______.

   A. get more knowledge

   B. live more happily

   C. remember more words

   D. make one become a musician

Which of the following is true according to the passage?

   A. Dr Chan thinks people should have music training when they grow up.

   B. Dr Chan thinks the special part of the brain doesn’t need developing.

   C. Dr Chan thinks people should have music training when they are young.

   D. Dr Chan thinks musicians have a larger brain than non-musicians.

How many students took part in Dr Chan’s research?

   A. 30 girl students.                   B. 60 girl students.

   C. 17% of his students.               D. 60 girl and boy students.
