(2)The further explains musical training and learning to speak each make us think about what we are doing2. She says speech and music pass through a structure of the nervous system called the brain stem.
(3)Until recently, experts have thought the brain stem could not be developed or changed. But Professor Kranss and her team found that musical training can improve a person's brain stem activity.The study involved individuals with different levels of musical ability. They were asked to wear an electrical device that measures brain activity. The Individuals wore the electrode while they watched a video of someone speaking and a person playing a musical instrument ―― the cello.
(4)The study found that the more years of training people had,the more sensitive they were to the sound and rhythm of the music3. Those who were involved in musical activities were the same people in whom the improvement of sensory events was the strongest.
(5)She says using music to improve listening skills could mean they hear sentences and understand facial expressions better.

注釋:
1.scientists believe that could help children with learning disabilities:科學家發(fā)現(xiàn),音樂訓練、對學習上有障礙的兒童有幫助。that是從句“that could help children with learning disabilities”中的主語。that指代上一句的developing musical skills involves the same process in the brain as learning how to speak.with learning disabilities是定語,修飾children.
2.musical training and learning to speak each make US think about what we are doin9:音樂訓練和學習說話這兩者都使我們思考我們正在所做的事。each指musical trainin9和learning to speak中的任何一個。句子的主語是musical training and learning to speak,所以,謂語動詞是復數(shù)的。
3.the more years of training people had,the more sensitive they were to the sound and rhythm of the music:人們接受音樂訓練的年份越長,其對音樂聲音和節(jié)奏的敏感性也越高。people是前半旬中的主語。
