(i only put the paragraphs that are needed, because unfortunately has a word limit. and the paragraph that i was gonna put was very long.)

read the passage. music and the brain

(this is paragraph 6)
a special community music program in a low-income area of los angeles showed a higher success rate of students going on to college than students in the area who did not participate in this music education. a team of researchers was asked to offer scientific evidence for this compelling distinction. the study concluded that there were significant improvements in reading scores for the children who attended music classes regularly and were actively engaged for a period of two years, compared to those who did not participate.

(this is paragraph 3)
recent brain research has shown some surprising benefits as a result of formal musical training. learning to play a musical instrument appears to develop parts of the brain that can even influence academic results. the studies indicate that the earlier a child begins training, the more benefits there are. one such study showed that children who began musical studies before the age of seven had a more developed brain in the region where language production and auditory processing take place. scientists believe there is mounting evidence to show that early musical training can improve brain function.
