To me,life without music would not be exciting.I realize that this is not true for everybody.Many people get along quite well without going to the concert or listening to the record.But music plays an important part in everyone’s life,whether he/she realizes it or not.Try to imagine,for example,what films or TV plays would be like without music.Would the feelings,the moving plots(情节),and the greatest interests,be so exciting or dramatic(富有戏剧性的)?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(旋律) of the sea,the melody of a bird in the woods and so on.So music surely has meanings 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.
Once a great man said,“Through music a child enters 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.”

To me,music is food and water.I can’t live without it.I know this is not true for everybody.Many people don’t listen to music and they can get along quite well.But music is everywhere in our life.For example,when you watch films or TV plays,do you find them interesting if there is no music?You would find them boring.And when you are waiting for the train or the plane,you would like music because it makes the time seem shorter.
It is true that music is everywhere in our life.Some people like to sit by the sea and listen to the sound of the sea.Some enjoy listening to the singing of birds.Those sounds are some kinds of music.
So music has meanings for everyone in some way or other.Of course,it has special meanings for people like me.We spend our lives playing or writing music.
Someone said,“Through music a child goes into a world of beauty,learns to take care of others and makes his mind and body strong.”Music is an important part of our lives.
