have known that music can help soothe babies. Then they discovered that listening to music, Mozart in particular, can help babies in ways they hadn’t imagined before. The phenomenon, called the Mozart Effect, was found to have positive benefits on intelligence and creativity.
In one study, psychologists gave study participants three tests. During each of the tests, the participants of the study listened to either Mozart, relaxation music, or nothing at all. The results of the study showed that all of the participants scored better on the tests after listening to Mozart. On average, the participants added about nine points to their IQ after listening to Mozart.
The Mozart Effect also affects the creativity of babies. In his book, American author Don Campbell described how playing Mozart for babies before they are born can help them become more creative as adults. According to Campbell, the music helped stimulate their mental development. By the time the babies were born, they were already more creative than babies who did not listen to Mozart. His argument was so strong that some hospitals decided to give all new mothers CDs of Mozart’s music.

Music can calm babies down.

The extra nine points, added to the IQs of those who listened to Mozart, disappeared after 15 minutes.
Rats, like humans, perform better on learning and memory tests after listening to a Mozart sonata.
The Mozart Effect has not been proved scientifically.
Don Campbell’s book The Mozart Effect has condensed the world’s research on all beneficial effects of certain types of music.
Some hospitals gave new mothers CDs of Mozart’s music.
The theory of the Mozart Effect was a marketing tool.

about designing a television commercial.
A TV commercial is a short film sequence of between 30 and 60 seconds with an accompanying soundtrack. Various techniques are used in commercials to convince the viewer of the value of the product or service which is being advertised. One of the most common is ‘dramatization’ where a short story is developed around the product or the service. The original ideas behind a commercial of this type are developed from a scenario, a written document that summarises the action, the atmosphere, the characters and the scene where the sequences of the commercial will be filmed. An artist then produces a storyboard, or series of pictures, to show how the commercial will look.
Look at the storyboard for a Gillette anti-perspirant TV commercial and prepare a scenario and a slogan for this product. Present your scenario to the teacher. You are to talk for 1-1,5 min. The teacher will listen until you have finished. Then s/he will ask you some questions.
