Animals may have a great deal of stress.     2     Dogs and cats may be stressed when around men because they were badly treated by a man, and they may never forget that. A dog who was attacked by another dog while on a walk may be always afraid to go on walks, or even be afraid to leave the house.

    3     Cats, dogs and horses will not all have the exact same stressors (压力源), so you just have to pay close attention to your animal and what makes them unique, such as changes in eating habits, too much sleep and too little sleep, just to name a few.

Music can be extremely beneficial for animals in high stress situations.     4     In the atmosphere, they feel calm, safe and well protected. Music can be specifically helpful when played at veterinary (兽医的) clinics for animals who are afraid of the vet. This helps calm the owners of the animals and the staff at the office besides the animals.     5     That’s why it is being taken up at a variety of veterinary clinics around the world.

Music can increase pain management. Listening to music can help increase your pain tolerance (耐痛性).     2     Listening to music can help you gain a sense of control over your ability to deal with pains. If you have a certain pain, for example, listening to music that you enjoy can help reduce the pain that you experience.

Going to see the doctor or the dentist can be somewhat scary experiences. You might therefore want to request some calming music.     5     If yours doesn’t, you might want to bring your own sounds stored in a device so you can have a more personal experience listening to them with earphones.

8 . On a freezing day, one motivated and ambitious 8-year-old boy, named Tristan Regini, stayed outside to make sure his neighbour stayed warm. Tristan Regini braved the cold Saturday by selling hot cocoa in his front yard to raise money for Children’s Hospital.

“It’s really cold,” he said while shivering. He owed all he did to doctors there for helping his best friend, Cade, who was fighting against cancer, so he wanted to pay them back. “I was thinking of doing a lemonade stand, but I figured that I could not do it in winter,” Tristan said. “Children’s Hospital saved his life, so now I’m trying to sponsor it even more.” The price of the hot cocoa is $1 a cup,$2 with marshmallows(棉花糖).You can watch the video above to learn how much money Tristan raised.

Tristan’s dad, Steve, said he was proud of his son, who came up with the idea all on his own. “You know what? He’s a warm-hearted little boy and it’s just awesome to see him want to do it,” he said. “It’s ambition and it’s also caring because of his friend, so it’s nice to see him do both, you know?” At one point, Steve said he wasn’t sure whether Tristan would actually go through with the sale, considering the temperature. “I wasn’t surprised, you know? That’s pretty much Tristan. That’s the way he is,” he said.

But Tristan proved him wrong, and planned to donate the money on Sunday. “If he had done this with me, he would have been very excited,” he said.

9 . In 2009 in southern Germany, people uncovered a flute (长笛) made of an animal’s wing bone. The delicate instrument is one of the oldest known musical instruments on the Earth, indicating that people have been making music for over 40,000 years. We can’t be sure exactly when human beings began listening to music.    1    Here’s what their research tells us about the power of music.

Doctors at Johns Hopkins University recommend that you listen to music to stimulate your brain. They have found that listening to music stimulates more parts of the brain than any other human activity.    2    Besides, just the promise of listening to music can make you want to learn more. In one 2019 study, people were more eager to learn when they expected to listen to a song as their reward.

Music also has a positive effect on your ability to memorize.    3    They found those who were listening to classical music outperformed those who worked in silence or with white noise. The same study also tracked how fast people could perform a simple task — matching numbers to shapes.    4    The music of Mozart helped people complete the task faster and more accurately (精确地).

    5    Neurological (神经学的) researchers have found that listening to music encourages the release (释放) of several neurochemicals that play a role in brain function and mental health like dopamine, a chemical associated with pleasure, and serotonin, a chemical related to immunity.

10 . The music industry is highly competitive. It requires you to improve your musical skills continuously for a higher level of artistry.     1    . Being a musician also requires the ability to think in business terms—you must know how to get your music out to the public in cost-effective ways. This means developing and adopting an effective marketing strategy.

    2    . Normally, a person or business looks at what a particular type of customer wants and then figures out what products or services meet the needs of those customers. In this regard, it is the customer that determines what is to be sold. With music marketing, just the opposite is true.     3    . Music marketing strategies thus must match a musician’s music with an audience.

Music marketing strategies involve one or more marketing techniques. Examples include giving free promotional (促销的) singles, putting advertisements on different media, and getting email addresses at concerts so audience members can get updates about the artist.     4    , but a good marketing strategy in music always uses the techniques familiar to the matching audience.

In many cases, music marketing strategies are limited by the artist’s funds. Many beginning artists don’t have the money to promote their work heavily and have to rely on techniques that are free or low-cost.     5    . Once the agency (中介处) gets behind the artist, the musician has access to the agency’s resources for marketing purposes. Agencies are more than willing to provide these resources and develop a marketing strategy, because a good strategy translates into profit for the agency.
