Sending your children to piano or violin lessons in a bid(努力)to boost their academic achievement is a waste of money, according to scientists.

"Music may【C5】______you a bit, but it’s also the case that different children take music lessons," said Professor Schellenberg of the University of Toronto, who added that parents’ education was the most influential【C6】______on musicality. "Children who take music lessons come from families with higher incomes, they come from families with more【C7】______parents, they also do more extracurricular activities, they have higher IQs, and they do better at school."
In tests on 167 children who played the piano or other instruments, they found their answer to personality tests could【C8】______how likely it was for them to continue their music lessons. Those who were more outgoing and conscientious were more likely to continue to play.
"We were【C9】______by the fact that kids who take music lessons are particularly good students. In school they actually do better than you would predict from their IQ, so【C10】______something else is going on," Professor Schellenberg told the American Association for the Advancement of Science(AAAS)annual conference in Boston. "So we thought that personality might be the personality. "
