音乐考题一直都是重点，第一部分一般都问你喜欢吗？同学们一定要说喜欢，因为考官觉得如果一个人不喜欢音乐，就等于这个人没有灵魂。还有问应不应该开设音乐课等等，要取得高分，同学们要准备好些自己最喜欢的歌曲，作家等与考官分享。如果你对黑人说你喜欢乡村音乐，他会晕过去。对老人家说你喜欢ROCK，更加不可以。说什么呢，看下面的参考答案，加以练习。
Music:
· Do you like music?
Definitely, music is my cup of tea. You know, I’m always busy in studying, so I need to do something to relax, music is the best way I think. I believe music is a wonderful form of art. Many of my friends have the same habit, so we often go to a Café or a concert to listen to music together. How happy and comfortableit is!
· Do you think music is important?
Absolutely yes, I think so. Different kinds of music have different impacts on people. Light music can make people relax and comfortable; country music purifies people’s soul; rock & roll inspirits people, pop music is a good choice in karaoke or in a party and so on so forth. I believe the life without music will be dark and monotonous.
· What music do you like? Why?
Not like many young people, I like listening and singing classical music, because the melody is so elegantand the lyric is always romantic. I’ll be really relax and comfortable when I listen to classical music. My favorite song is <Right Here Waiting>
· What music do Chinese people like?
Well, it’s hard to say. Different people will have different tastes. I guess young people will prefer pop music and hip-hop while old people like classical music and light music. Also there are some people enjoy listening to tradition operas like Beijing operas.
· How long do you listen to music every day?
Well, it’s hard to say. Every time when I feel tired or annoyed, I will stop to listen to music for a while, until I can concentrate on my studies again. Also, I will listen to my MP3 when I’m walking, sitting on a bus or in subway, trying to get asleep and so on. So I guess the total hours for each day may be three or four.
· From when on do schools begin to have music lessons?
I remember we had music lessons from grade one in elementary school, yes it’s quite early but reasonable. As I just said, music can purify people’s soul. I believe childhood is the most important period to shape one’s character, so teachers use music as a tool to better educate students and make them grow up to the right direction.
· Should there be music lessons at school?
Definitely yes, I think so. As I just said, music can purifypeople’s soul. I believe the age of adolescents is the most important period to shape one’s character, so teachers use music as a tool to better educate students and make them grow up to the right direction.
