4. Singing With A Group Of People Makes You Happier
和一群人一起合唱会让你更快乐

Ever thought people that sing in a choir look a bit…too happy? Well, as it turns out, it’s not just your imagination. Science actually explains what makes them so happy. And the best part of it is, even less-than-great singers experienced the same positive effects.
有没有想过合唱团的人看起来有点儿......太欢乐了？嗯，事实证明，它不只是你的想象而已。其实科学可以解释是什么让他们如此高兴欢乐。并且最好的部分在于：即使对不那么出色的歌手也同样有积极的影响效果。

What does this mean for you? Hopefully, that the next time you get the chance to have a sing-along with someone else, you take it, instead of worrying about how you will be received. It’s very likely to cheer you up! One of the studies listed also suggest that singing together increases bonding. And don’t worry, if you feel like you’re just too shy, you can stick to singing in the shower. But just make sure you do it a bit more often.
这对于你而言又意味着什么呢？如果下次有人邀请你一起唱，你要欣然接受这样一个难得的机会，别再担心你是否合拍的问题啦，合唱会让你很开心！另外还有研究表明，一起唱歌可以拉近亲密度。不要担心，如果你觉得自己在大家面前羞于开口唱歌，你可以在淋浴时自己唱歌，但你要坚持做下去。

5. Learning To Play An Instrument As A Kid Makes You More Successful Later
从小学乐器会让你日后生活更成功

Research shows a noticeable correlation between learning to play an instrument as a child, and becoming successful later in life. So if you were always upset with your parents for forcing you to play the violin—or like me, the piano—take a minute to be grateful. I just thanked my father. One of my biggest regrets these days is that I never actually tried to learn to play the piano properly.
研究表明，从小学乐器与以后成功的生活之间有着明显的相关性。所以，如果你总反感你的父母强迫你拉小提琴，或像我一样厌烦弹钢琴，感恩一下父母的激励督促吧。我真的很感谢我的父亲。现在我的一个最大遗憾就是我从来没有真正地尝试着去认真地学弹钢琴。
