Some people like silence because it helps them feel calm and focused. Like when you’re trying to fall asleep, and the quiet helps your brain shut off. Others enjoy noise because it keeps their brains busy, like when music makes you want to dance or think more clearly. It all depends on what kind of brain you have.
Examples
- A child listens to soft music before bedtime because it helps them fall asleep.
- An office worker enjoys working in a noisy café because it keeps their brain active.
- A student finds it hard to concentrate during class when the teacher talks too loudly.
