Comprehension:

Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow:

Helena Blumen, a cognitive scientist at Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York City, says the intricate mental multitasking that dance requires engages various parts of the brain at the same time, which can lead the strengthening of neural connections across different regions. Basically dancing requires more brain power than simpler repetitive exercises.

Anyone who’s ever felt the irresistible urge to sway to a favourite song knows that combining music and movement can lift your mood and melt away stress. But there’s lot more happening in your brain when you’re trying to follow even the easiest choreography.

In dance, we have to learn patterns, we have to think symmetrically and asymmetrically, we have to remember sequences. The effect extends beyond dance class to the real world. Tasks like navigating the kitchen or walking to the bus stop can become more attainable if they are regarded as choreography.
