23、回答23-30题:
Music Used As a Healing Therapy 1. Musichas long been used to treat patients suffering fron different problems. In 400BC,itshealing properties were documented by the ancient Greeks. More recently, inboth worldwars in the last century, medical workers used music therapy (疗法)with people suffering from trauma (外伤). Currently, itis used as a treatment for many diseases, such as cancer, and it has also beenused by patients with long-term pair and learning disabilities.
2. Thereis growing evidence that music can cause physical changes to the body whichcanimprove our health. In the Welcome Trust study, which took place over threeyears at the Chelsea and Westminster hospital in London, patient,, were askedto listen to musical performances. As a result, it was found that stress levelswere significantly reduced, recovery times were improved, and fewer drugs wereneeded.
3. Thesevery positive results are partly due to general we l-being (良好的健康状况). It is already accepted that when people feel happy and have apositive approach to life, they are more likely to feel better and recover fromdisease quickly. Music increases this feeling of joy and adds to the recoveryprocess.
4.However, not all these benefits can be attributed to an increase in generalwell-being. Music has other effects which have not yet been understood,According to Professor Robertson, a scientist and musician, some effects ofmusic are mysterious and are, therefore, being investigated further. It hasbeen suggested that the stands and rhythms of music help stimulate the brainand send electrical messages to the muscles.
5.Science, however, demands facts and hard evidence. Many in the medicalprofession have not yet recognized the healing benefits of music, since reportshave been based mainly on various stories of evidence. These new studies couldprovide proof to doctors that music is a suitable treatment for manyconditions. One day doctor may even "prescribe" (开处方)music, but that could be a long time in the future.
