普特英語聽力材料《那些不喜歡音樂的人》

音樂是用有組織的音構成的聽覺意象，來表達人們的思想感情與社會現實生活的一種藝術形式，也是最能即時打動人的一種藝術形式。狠毒人喜歡音樂，但是也有人對音樂壓根不感興趣。下面這篇普特英語聽力文摘為您詳細介紹。

Those Who Don’t Like Music

Everybody likes music, right? I mean, no matter who you are, where you live, or what your ethnic or cultural background is, people everywhere derive some pleasure from listening to their favorite music.

Except People Who Don’t

Apparently, though, some people are simply not capable of enjoying music. This not because they can’t experience pleasure at all. People who don’t “get” music typically enjoy sex, food, money and many other pleasurable things. Just not music.

According to at least one study, it’s not necessarily due to amusia a condition that hampers the brain’s ability to process music. People with what’s being called “specific musical anhedonia” have no trouble making sense of or hearing music properly. They’re just indifferent to it.

Recent Research

In the study, researchers at the University of Barcelona examined thirty subjects split into three groups. Each participant listened to different types of music and rated how much they enjoyed them.

They were also made to respond to questions in order to win or lose between twenty-five cents and nearly three dollars to test if the participants were only immune to music, or immune to other “pleasures”, like the prospect of winning money.

　　Mysteries Remain

Meanwhile, the scientists measured their emotional response to each task by analyzing heart rate and how well their skin conducted electricity.

And the researchers found that some of the participants had no emotional reaction to the music even when they were emotionally stimulated by the money incentive task. The researchers don’t know why some people derive no pleasure from music. Further research may provide an answer.

　那些不喜歡音樂的人

人人都愛音樂，對吧?不管你是誰，住在哪，來自什麼種族，擁有什麼文化背景，聽自己喜愛的音樂都會感到快樂。

　　除了那些對音樂不感冒的人

但是，很明顯，有些人就是無法欣賞音樂。這並不是因為他們根本無法體會快樂的感覺。那些不愛音樂的人一般喜愛性，食物，金錢和其他能夠帶來快了的事物。只是對音樂不感興趣罷了。

至少有一項研究顯示，失音症(一種能夠阻礙大腦處理音樂的病症)不一定是問題的根源所在，那些患有特殊音樂快感缺失症的人是可以理解或正常聆聽音樂的。他們只是對音樂沒有什麼特別反應而已。

　最新研究

在該項研究中，巴塞羅那大學的研究人員將30個研究對象分為三組，每個參與者要求聽不同類型的音樂並告知他們喜愛的程度有多少。

同時，他們還需要回答問題，如果只是對音樂免疫，那麼參與者可以贏得25美分到接近3美元的'獎勵，如果對其他能夠帶來愉悦感的因素免疫的話，就得不到獎勵，比如贏錢能帶來愉悦感。

　未解之謎

同時，科學家們通過分析心率和皮膚導電性測量出參與者對每項任務產生的情感反映。

研究人員發現，一些參與者對音樂沒有任何情感反應，甚至是在金錢刺激的情況下。目前研究人員還不知道為什麼有些人無法從音樂中獲得愉悦感。想要找出答案還需要進一步的研究。
