Imagine going to your doctor with frequent headaches. Your doctor takes

a prescription pad (药方) and writes a word on it. The word isn’t “aspirin”, it’s

“Mozart”.

The idea isn't so far-fetched. Many kinds of music can stir (激发) the imagination and ____75____ strong feeling. Scientists have found Mozart's music to be remarkable in its ability to calm its listeners.

Many amazing cases have been known using Mozart as a healing aid(治疗手段). ____76____, a tiny newly-born baby named Krissy, who weighed just 1.5 pounds at birth, was on total life support. Doctors thought she had little chance of survival(幸存). Her mother insisted on playing Mozart for Krissy, and thinks it saved her daughter's life. Krissy lived, but she was very small for her ____77____ and slower than the average child. At the age of four, she showed an interest in music and her parents gave her violin lessons. To their astonishment, Krissy was able to play musical pieces from memory that were far beyond the ability of an average four-year-old. Playing music ____78____ her improve in all areas of her life.

And there are other stories. Officials in Washington State report that new arrivals from Asia learn English more ____79____ when they listen to Mozart. Even animals respond to Mozart. In France, cows listening to Mozart give more milk.

Why Mozart, rather than Bach or the Beatles? Any kind of music can have an effect on some people. But Mozart has more____80____. It isn't too fast or too show; it's just right. Don Campbell, who wrote a book called The Mozart Effect, says, “It's like food. A hot spicy meal will affect you differently than a sweet dessert. And while you might love these foods, they aren't good for you to eat every day. You need simple, nutritious (营养的) food on a steady basis. That's the way Mozart is. It's like a nutritionally balanced meal that does good to your body.”

When I entered Berkley, I hoped to win a scholarship(奖学金).

As a Straight-A student all the way through, I believed I could take
