But now you'd better thank your parents for their time and money spent on your musical training. A recent study suggests that music lessons can make children have better memories than their peers(同龄人).

The Canadian study showed that after one year of musical training,children did better on a memory test than those who didn't take music lessons.

The researchers made the children aged between 4 and 6 into two groups—one group of children took music lessons outside school,and the other didn't take any musical training. In one year,they took four tests in different times. The results showed brain development changes at least every four months.

The first picture is of Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865). He became the 16th president of the United States in 1861, just 14 years after he was first elected to the House of Representatives.

On Friday, April 14, 1865, he and his wife planned to go to see a play at Ford's Theater. His secretary, named Kennedy, advised him not to go, but he went anyway and was shot in the head as he watched the play. He died the next day, and Vice-president Andrew Johnson (1808-1875) became President.
