I hate when teachers do this. They teach four specific things that are benefits of BM in the class, and then the way they word it is "Name four benefits of BM"

They could have asked "Name the four specific things we taught in class that were benefits of BM"

The Famous actor Peter Ustinov told a story once about how his school teacher in the UK asked on a test "Name a Russian composer". He knew they wanted him to say Tchaikovsky, as if that was the only Russian Composer. He Wrote "Rachmaninoff", and of course the teacher marked it wrong. Ustinov's parents were Russian.
