It’ s the idea that if children or even babies listen to music posed by Mozart, they will bee more intelligent. A quick Inter search reveals plenty of products to assist you in the task. Whatever your age there are CDs and books to help you taste the power of Mozart’ s music, but when it es to scientific evidence that it can make you more clever, the picture is more mixed. The phrase “ the Mozart effect” was made up in 1991, but it was a study described two years later in the journal Nature that sparked（ 激发） real media and public interest about the idea that listening to classical music somehow improves the brain.

More research was carried out but an analysis of sixteen different studies confirmed that listening to music does lead to a temporary improvement in the ability to handle shapes mentally, but the benefits are shortlived and it doesn’t make us more intelligent. 33.
