再来一篇 http://www.libertytimes.com.tw/2008/new/may/1/today-int7.htm 《中英对照读新闻》Drummers are natural intellectuals 鼓手是天生的聪明人 ◎郑寺音 Drummers are better known for their beats than their brain power, but research has suggested that they might actually be natural intellectuals. 鼓手的节奏比他们的脑力更为人所知，但研究显示，他们可能其实是天生的 聪明人。 Scientists who asked volunteers to keep time with a drumstick before taking intelligence tests discovered that those with the best sense of rhythm also scored highest in the mental assessments. 科学家请志愿者在接受智能测验前先以鼓棒打拍子，发现节奏感最好的人， 心理评量的得分也最高。 Prof Frederic Ullen, from the Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm, concluded that there was a link between intelligence, good timing and the part of the brain used for problem-solving. 斯德哥尔摩卡洛琳斯卡研究所的乌利恩教授总结道，智力、善打拍子以及脑 部用来解决问题的区块彼此相关。 For the study, Prof Ullen and Guy Madison, from Sweden’s Umea University, asked 34 right-handed men aged between 19 and 49 to tap a drumstick at a variety of different intervals. 瑞典乌米亚大学的乌利恩与马迪森教授，为了这份研究，请34名年龄在19到 49岁之间的惯用右手男性，以各种时间长短不同的间断敲打鼓棒。 They were then given a psychometric test of 60 questions and problems. 他们接着接受一份包括60个问题与困难的心理测量学测试。 Prof Ullen said : "We found that people with high general intelligence were also more stable on a very simple timing task." 乌利恩教授说：「我们发现高智商的人，在非常简单的打拍子任务的表现也 较为稳定。」 新闻辞典 time︰拍子，打拍子。 例句：Small children often have difficulty singing in time with the music.（小孩唱歌，通常赶不上节拍。） interval︰间隔，距离。 例句：The interval between the two posts measures thirty meters. （那2根柱间的距离为30公尺。） ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 打鼓长知识。 妈，我要学打鼓！ -- 礼记学记篇: 鼓无当於五声, 五声弗得不合 知道鼓的厉害了吧! --
