Each person has his own way to have fun. Some like sports. Some like playing chess or cards. But a large number of people enjoy listening to music.
Nowadays, music has become an important part of our life. We can listen to music on CDs, on radio or on TV. Also, we can search the Internet to find the song we like. It’s the easiest way to enjoy the music that we like. Also we can download (下载）our favorite songs from the Internet for free. If we have a Walkman (随身听），we can hear music everywhere. It can give us pleasure if we are sad. It can cheer us up, too. When we are tired, it can make us relaxed.
Different people like different kinds of music. Young people like pop music. Maybe old people like gentle and quiet music. Different music can express different feelings. When we are happy, we like to listen to jubilant (欢快的) music. When we are unhappy, we want to hear soft music. We need different kinds of music in different moods.
