47、ey can stay focused for longer.Also it can help them with their creativity and make studying more enjoyable. 18 Firstly, it depends on what the task is.The more difficult the challenge is, the more likely background music will interrupt the learning process. For less challenging learning tasks,music
48、 can greatly assist in providing a positive learning state.Secondly, it depends on the characteristics of the music well come to in a moment.And thirdly, extroverts(性格外向者) enjoy and often require more external stimulation(刺激) and are likely to handle background noise better than those who are quiet
49、and shy. Actually,its not about the genre(类型) of music,but the natural musical characteristics which aid or disrupt study.One of these characteristics is the tempo(拍 子)The recommended tempo for background music is in the range 70110 beats per minute,slightly faster than the heartbeat at rest. 19 And very slow mus
