Most students in America like popular music. Students carry small radios with earphones and listen to the music before class, after class and at lunch. Students with cars buy large speakers and play the music loudly as they drive on the street.
Adult drivers listen to the music on the car radio as they drive to work. They also listen to the news about the sports, the weather and the life of American people. Most of the radio programmes are music.
Popular music singers make much money. They make a CD or tape which radio stations use in many places. Once the popular singer is heard all over the country, young people will buy his or her CDs or tapes. Some of the money from them goes to the singer. Wherever the singer goes, most of the young people want to meet him or her. Now the singer has become a national star.
There are other kinds of music that are important to Americans. One is called folk music which tells stories about the common life of Americans. Another is called western or country music. It was started by cowboys who would sing at night to the cows which they were watching. Today, any music about country life and the love between a country boy and his girl is called western or country music.

To me, life without music would not be exciting. I realise that this is not true for everybody. Many people get along quite well without going to the concert and listening to the record. But music plays an important part in everyone’s life, whether he realises it or not. Try to imagine, for example, what films or TV plays would be like without music. Would the feelings, the moving plot, and the greatest interests be so exciting or dramatic I’m not sure about it.
Now, we have been speaking of music in its more common meaning—the kind of music we hear in the concert hall. But if we look at some parts of music more closely, we discover them in our everyday life too—in the rhythm of the sea, the melody of a bird in the woods and so on. So music surely has meaning for everyone, in some way or other. And, of course, it has special meaning for those who have spent all their lives working on playing or writing music.
It is well said, “Through music a child enters into a world of beauty, expresses himself from his heart, feels the joy of doing things alone, learns to take care of others, develops his mind and makes his body strong.”

Stores play music to change the way customers feel. Clothing stores for teenagers play popular music. It is exciting and makes the customers feel happy,but music does more than that. It can change the way a person shops.
According to studies, the volume(音量) of music changes how people shop. Customers shop quickly when store music is very loud. They hurry through the store, but they buy just as much. When music is quiet, customers shop slowly. Customers take time to look at the products and talk with the salespeople. Quiet music is good for products that take time and information to buy.
Slow music makes people slow down. In restaurants with slow music, customers spend more time eating. Slow music also slows down customers in supermarkets. Customers notice more products as they walk through the store. With slow music in supermarkets, sales go up by 38 percent.
Familiar music gives shoppers a good idea of time. People know the beginning, middle, and end of a familiar song. When customers hear music that is not familiar, they don’t notice the time. When they don’t notice the time, they spend more time shopping and buy more. People remember past experiences and feelings when they hear familiar music. Many stores play old, happy music so customers feel good. When customers hear new music, they forget about the world outside of the store. Some stores use new music so their customers relax while they shop.
Stores choose music that fits their products. A bookstore plays classical music and jazz. It gives the store a serious and intelligent feeling.

I love listening to music and will try to do it as much as I can. Whether I’m driving my car or walking somewhere, I always have a CD or my iPod playing because I feel music can greatly influence my mood. I can listen to music to cheer me up or relax or remind me about a certain time and a certain place where I last listened to that song.
I feel the best way to listen to music is live! I love going to concerts to watch and hear my favourite artist or band perform.
The last concert I went to was a Mumford and Sons’ concert in Newcastle, a country-folk style band from the UK. All of the lights and sound effects not only sounded good but also looked good.
I always feel that people come together at concerts. I can easily talk to people I might never have talked to before, just because they share an interest in a certain music artist.
I also find that at concerts many artists or bands may speed their song up or slow it down. Sometimes they might cover someone else’s song so I feel that the live performances really show me a new way to listen to music.
I enjoy concerts because I always discover something new and different because of the way it is played live.

写一篇关于音乐的演讲稿
仔细阅读下面的演讲稿,试着总结此类文章的结构并欣赏其语言特点。
Good morning, everyone. I’m Li Hua. It is my great honour to make a speech here. The topic of my speech is “Music and me”.
Have you ever failed in an exam One year ago, I failed in one English exam. I was sad and disappointed. I went home and lay on the bed, tears falling like rain. Just at that moment, a piece of beautiful music outside the window came to my ears. Slowly, I calmed down. My heart swam in the sea of music. The music shone like the sun, which made me feel warm and comfortable. Just as John A. Logan said, “Music is the medicine of the mind.” I made up my mind to study harder and pass the exam next time! From then on, I made friends with music!
Do you like listening to music If not, I hope you can have a try. You will find it beneficial. As you research music, you will find music that is familiar to you. You will find music which tells of interesting places and exciting things to do. You will find music which expresses feelings that are often your own.
Thank you.

Vienna is a beautiful old city on the River Danube in the centre of Europe. It’s the capital city of Austria and the centre of European classical music. In the 18th century a lot of musicians came to study and work in Vienna.
In the Strauss family, there were two composers called Johann Strauss: a father and a son. The father, Johann Strauss the elder, wrote and played music for traditional dances, called the waltz. His dance music made him famous all over Europe. The son, Johann Strauss the younger, was also very successful and popular. He wrote over 150 waltzes. In 1867 he wrote The Blue Danube waltz.
Mozart was another very important composer. He was born in Austria in 1756. Before he was six, he played not only the piano but also the violin. His family took him around Europe and he gave concerts in many cities. He wrote hundreds of wonderful pieces of music. But he became very poor and died in 1791 when he was only 35. Like Johann Strauss, the father and the son, he was a great European musician, and many people still think his music is perfect.

Country music is one of the most popular kinds of music in the United States today because it is about simple but strong human feelings and events—love, sadness, good times, and bad times. It tells real-life stories and sounds the way people really talk. As life becomes more complicated(复杂的), it is good to hear music about ordinary people.
Country music, sometimes called country-western, comes from two kinds of music. One is the traditional music of the people in the Appalachian Mountains in the eastern United States. The other is traditional cowboy music from the West. The singers usually play the guitars, and in the 1920s they started using electric guitars. At first city people said country music was low class. It was popular mostly in the South. But during World War Ⅱ, thousands of southerners went to the Northeast and Midwest to work in the factories. They took their music with them. Soldiers from the rest of the country went to army camps(军营) in the South. They learned country music. Slowly it became popular all over the country.
Today country music is also popular everywhere in the United States and Canada—in small towns and in New York City, among black and white, and among educated and uneducated people. About 1,200 radio stations broadcast country music twenty-four hours a day. English stars sing it in British English, and people in other countries sing it in their own languages. The music that started with cowboys and southerners is now popular all over the world.

Michael Jackson was on the road of performing when he was five years old. As is known to all, the road to fame and fortune is a long, hard one.
Michael remembers those early years when he was young. “My father was a machine operator,” he explained, “and he worked at a steel plant. My mother worked at Sears, a big department store. But they were both musicians.”
Michael’s father Joe Jackson realised his sons had a lot of talent, and he knew he could train them to become fine musicians. In those days there were plenty of music groups and some of them were very good. He knew if his sons were to stand out, they would have to be the best.
Practice makes perfect. And the Jackson boys practised! Gradually the group took shape. Then word of this group began to get around. Thus Michael got a chance to do some solo songs. In the following years, Michael was always on the top. One million records of his were sold in New Zealand, which has only a total population of three million!
When Michael was eighteen, he entered another field of his career(生涯)—acting. “I plan to star in movies,” he told his friends, “but of course, my first love is music.”
Michael wrote a lot of his own songs. “Songs came about in the strangest ways,” he said. “I’ll just wake up from sleeping and there is a whole song coming into my head. And then I put it down on the paper.”
Still, with all his success, Michael managed to keep his head calm. “I just do a different job from other people,” he said, “but it doesn’t make me think I’m better than other people.”
To be quite honest, his fans just love to hear and watch him!

A. Michael Jackson’s parents enjoyed music a lot.

Five Tips for Safe Running
We all know that exercise is good for our health. But some kinds of exercise may be better than others. Running, for example, may help to protect against heart disease and other health problems.
Running is good exercise, but it can be hard on the body. 11.______
Take it easy. Do not run too much, too soon or too fast. Most people get running injuries when they push themselves too bad. The body needs time to get used to increases in distance or speed. 12.______
Listen to your body. Most running injuries do not come unexpectedly. 13.______ They may include body aches, sore muscles(肌肉酸痛) and pain that does not go away.
14.______ There is no single best shoe for every runner. You should find the shoes that offer the best fit and support for your feet. More importantly, you should replace your shoes every 500 to 800 kilometres.
Take good notes. Take time after each run to write down what you did and how you felt. Look for patterns, things that happen over and over again. These notes will help you find the best exercise for you.
Cross train. As we said earlier, running is hard on your body. So physical fitness experts suggest some forms of cross training to improve muscle balance and to help you stay injury free. They say swimming, yoga, and riding a bicycle are good exercises to combine with running.

A teacher says music education in schools has kind of turned into amusement. Classroom lessons focus heavily on pop while understanding the classical art form and its history should be paid attention to.
A professor in music and music education at the University of NSW, Robert Walker, argues that all students should study the works of Western classical composers such as Haydn and Tchaikovsky.
Professor Walker says students are missing out on an important part of the cultural heritage because they fail to study classical music, as the little music that children learn at school is mainly pop. The lack of music teaching is serious, especially in government schools where there are not enough specialist music teachers.
A national review in 2005 made 15 suggestions, but Professor Walker said it still failed to deal with the lack of classical music taught in schools.
“I’m not against pop music, but it’s very simple, and not difficult either to play or to sing,” Professor Walker says. “But classical music is challenging and although it is part of Australia’s cultural heritage, most children learn it only through Hollywood films.”
“At least children ought to know what’s happening in Western culture. It’s part of the cultural heritage,” he says. “Asian students know more about Western classical music than most children in the West.”
Professor Walker has taught music and music teachers in Britain, Canada and Australia and is a former chief examiner for the International Baccalaureate and a former chairman of the research committee of the International Society for Music Education. Professor Walker says no school curriculum(课程) in Australia lists a piece of music that children should study, such as the Mendelssohn’s.
“This lack of standard texts means that some children can be brought up totally on Western classical music, others on Elvis Presley, or on any music the teacher wants to teach. The situation should be changed as soon as possible,” he says.
1. What’s the problem in music education in Professor Walker’s opinion
A. Children know nothing about their cultural heritage.
B. Classical music education isn’t valued in schools.
C. Pop music is simple and not difficult to play and sing.
D. Australian schools need more specialist music
