Once there was an Indian scientist who loved music and also played a beautiful violin. He had a(n) 1 of getting up at six in the morning and then playing the violin in his yard for half an hour. After that，he would 2 his breakfast and listen to music records.
One day，he suddenly realized the plants in his yard always grew 3 and stronger than those outside. The plants inside and outside the yard were living under the same 4 like soil，air，sunlight and so on. However，just separated by the wall，the results were 5 different. Why? He made a careful study 6 it.
7 playing his violin，he looked at the plants in his yard，swinging in the morning wind，as if his loyal (忠实的) listeners were nodding their 8. He suddenly thought，“Do plants like to listen to music? Could it be that the beautiful sound of everyday music 9 the growth of plants?” With this in mind，he decided to carry out 10 next research plan.
The next spring，when the 11 had planted rice，the scientist went to the rice field outside the yard every morning to play his violin and music records. He 12 his habit of playing the violin for 30 minutes and then playing music records later for 15 minutes.
Something 13 finally happened after 45 days or so. He 14 that the rice in the large field where he played his violin and music records every day grew better than that in other fields. The plants were taller and stronger. He came to the 15 that plants like to listen to music and they can understand music!
