Tidiness

Tidiness means keeping things out of sight and yet available when wanted. It implies that there is a (1) for everything and that each thing used finds its way (2) to its place by a continuos process, not by a spasmodic (3) . The process depends, however, upon the drawer, cupboard and storage (4) being provided, for lack of which one things may literally have (5) place to go. Like the perambulator and trolley, the luggage and the golfclubs (6) be homeless. The same may be true of the deck-chairs (7) the bulkier plastic toys. As there is no place for them, it is no (8) telling people to put them away. The architect who thus economises on (9) space is apt to claim that a good-sized sitting-room is (10) result. What advantage is there in that, however, (11) half the living-room has to be used for storage? The aesthetic (12) depends, in turn, upon storage space.

(13) it may be true that no house ever had cupboards enough, (14) are some houses which have practically no cupboards (15) all. In these our choice must lie between chronic (16) and ruthless destruction. That is not to say, however, (17) cupboard space will itself create tidiness. Some people (18) happier, it would seem, in chaos. There is the question, furthermore, (19) the cupboards themselves are tidy. That (20) has been swept out of sight is no proof, in itself, that everything can be found.

Exercising to music pumps up brain power

If music makes you smarter, and exercise helps brain function, can exercising to music really boost brainpower? Some researchers said it can. Volunteers who listened to Vivaldi's "Four Seasons" while working out on a treadmill did much better on a test of (1) ability than when they exercised without music, a team (2) Ohio State University found.

"Evidence suggests that exercise improves the (3) performance of people with coronary artery (4) ," said psychologist Charles Emery, who led the study.

"And listening to music is (5) to enhance brainpower. We wanted to put the two results together," Emery (6) in a statement.

Writing in the latest issue of the journal Heart & Lung, Emery and (7) said they studied 33 men and women taking (8) in a cardiac rehabilitation program after having bypass (9) , angioplasty or other procedures to treat clogged arteries.

The (10) said they felt better emotionally and mentally after working out (11) or without the music. But their improvement on the (12) fluency test doubled after listening to music on the treadmills.

"Exercise seems to (13) positive changes in the nervous system, and these changes may have a (14) effect on cognitive ability," Emery said.

"Listening to music may (15) cognitive function through different pathways in the brain. The combination of music (16) exercise may stimulate and increase cognitive arousal (17) helping to organize cognitive output."

Emery said he now wanted to (18) people using music of their own choice. "We used the 'Four Seasons' because of its (19) tempo and positive effects on medical patients in previous (20) ," Emery said. "But given the range of music preferences among patients, it's especially important to evaluate the influence of other types of music on cognitive outcomes./
